An Air India Express flight to Singapore, originally scheduled to depart from Chennai at 2 PM on Friday, faced a four-hour delay, causing frustration among the 172 passengers.

Passengers arrived at the airport around 11 AM, completed security checks, and waited to board. They were informed of the delay and asked to wait in the hall. With no updates by 3 PM, passengers became agitated and argued with airline staff.

Airport officials intervened, provided snacks, and managed to calm the passengers. The flight eventually departed at 6 PM. Sources indicated the delay was due to the incoming flight from Singapore arriving late.
