Spicejet faces ransomware attack; flight operations affected

Hundreds of SpiceJet customers were stranded at multiple airports on Wednesday morning owing to a ransomware attack that disrupted flight departures. As customers stranded at various airports and expressed concern about the delay and facing trouble, ground workers informed them that the server was down.

'Last night, an attempted ransomware attack on SpiceJet systems interrupted and slowed morning aircraft departures today. Our IT team has contained and resolved the issue, and flights are now operating normally'. This was a tweet from SpiceJet after receiving multiple inquiries about the flight delay.
