The SpiceJet airline, which runs flights connecting Jaisalmer with Delhi, Mumbai and Ahmedabad, has suddenly stopped its services from January 27, 2021. The airline sent a message to its customers informing them about the cancellation and asking them to convert their tickets into shell money, by means of which they can book another flight in a span of one year. The sudden cancellation of flights services has hit the plans of tourists who had already booked the tickets. “Our entire family was supposed to fly to Jaisalmer on January 28 to attend a wedding. But now due to the cancellation of flights the only option to travel is by road in absence of any other flights and lack of trains. We had to drop the plan as the elders and children in the family are unable to take the road journey. Our hotel bookings were already done, which we are forced to cancel now,” said Hemant Shah, one of the passengers who was supposed to travel to Jaisalmer from Delhi but has now cancelled his plans.
