Four SpiceJet employees suffered serious injuries after they were assaulted by a passenger at Srinagar Airport on July 26, 2025, said the airline in a statement on Sunday.
The airline ground staff flagged the extra weight of the cabin baggage beyond the permissible limit and asked the passenger, reportedly an Army officer, to pay the applicable charges.
There is road rage, and now there is often – air rage
A passenger beats up a @flyspicejet staffer using whatever he could find then @CISFHQrs enters & someone slaps passenger. Full drama
Important to know why he did this (massive delay?)#NoFlyList incoming?

The passenger, however, turned aggressive and punched and kicked to staff members and attacked one of them with a queue stand, the airline said further.
