Jeet grounded, thanks to airline

Despite confirmation, the composer���s name did not feature on the boarding list; the domestic airline has tendered an apology
Going by Jeet Gannguli���s experience, leaving on a jet plane might not be half as uplifting as listening to the John Denver number. Despite booking two tickets on a domestic flight and paying a hefty amount, the composer was recently told that he didn���t exist...er, on the fliers��� list!
���I, being the only son of my parents, have a lot of commitments at home during Diwali. Considering
the rush, I had got in touch with my travel agent, who booked two tickets for me and Chandrani (wife) on a domestic flight on November 6. I was all set to fly at 8.15 am from Mumbai to Kolkata on November 9. The reservation was confirmed and I was even sent the PNR number. Thankfully, I called on the helpline number the night before to get the flight details when I was told that there was no one called Jeet Gannguli on their boarding list,��� recounts the composer.
Flustered, Jeet made a few calls only to learn that despite money being debited from his credit card, his name wasn���t on the list. ���I got in touch with the travel agent, who booked me tickets on another flight. It was really tough. At a time when the Indian aviation industry is going through turbulent times, such goof-ups are bound to bring more disrepute,��� says Jeet.
Apparently, it was a technical glitch for which despite the booking, the seats were released. Now, there���s not only an official mail of apology, but last heard, a refund is also in the process. Despite repeated calls, the customer relations officials could not be reached.
