My journey was started from Delhi on 20 th Nov by flight INDIGO Everybody might be thinking this as boosting Yes you are correct Travel by flight is becoming common The incident which has took place is worth mentioning Hence I mentioned as flight Journey.After on line checking from from house I went to airport to deposit my luggage at the counter Afterwards I proceeded to airport to board. I reached Chennai by 9.40 and went to collect my bag All others bags have come except me. I informed the airline staff who was monitoring there. She immediately contacted all the people and to Delhi airport. They informed that the bag was despatched in the next flight fortunately started within 1/2 hour. I got the bag in the next flight. The thing and what I suspect is the bag was not loaded and it was forgotten to be loaded and after finding their mistake it was loaded . The reason was the bag was given separately in the baggage counter and it escaped notice of loading staff. We for our convenience get boarding pass from house and suffers
