Video goes viral on social media
The post was shared on the social media platform on November 29. However, WION couldn’t verify the authenticity of the video.
The video has till now more than 5,000 likes and multiple comments.
"Some left their fully filled water bottle in cabin luggage, that might be the reason this is why they ask us to keep water bottles with us. Don't just simply blame the company," wrote a user.
"Can someone ask for a refund in such situations?" said another.

A third user wrote, "Had a similar experience in 2018 Frankfurt to Delhi, just after the takeoff. The flight attendant said nothing to worry about, it was normal and asked me to move toward the kitchen until it stopped. 10 minutes later it was ok, probably some issue with AC."
"Omg, this is pathetic," commented a fourth user.
A fifth user stated, "Hope the passengers are compensated fairly."
One user also suggested that it may be a ‘technical glitch’, while others expressed anger lack of care and service of the airline.
‘This is a technical glitch. Can happen with any airline. Looks like the passengers are more comfortable than guys who propagate the video to defame the airline," said a user.
