A passenger vomited in the aisle on an IndiGo flight from Guwahati to Delhi on March 26.
After the incident was shared widely on social media, with some expressing shock, IndiGo in a statement said the passenger was feeling unwell and he threw up. The airline said he then had his medicines and slept through the flight.
IndiGo has denied posts on social media that suggested the passenger was drunk.
Photos tweeted by those who were on the same flight show the crew member, wearing gloves and a mask, cleaning the spot where the passenger vomited with spray and tissue papers.
Last year, a drunk passenger had urinated on an elderly woman on a New York-Delhi Air India flight. The airline was criticised for not taking prompt action against the passenger. He was arrested six weeks.
