The airline industry and police across the country are on tenterhooks following a series of bomb threats, some thirty on Saturday alone. Six threats were reported at Mumbai airport, bringing the total number of such calls made to airports nationwide to 70 over the week. All of these threats turned out to be hoaxes; however, the inconvenience caused to thousands of passengers by flight delays and diversions has been enormous.
The industry has already suffered losses exceeding ₹80 crore due to increased fuel consumption and other costs. Moreover, many people are postponing their travel plans because of the uncertainty and fear generated by these hoax calls. "I wanted to go to Delhi to attend a meeting on Monday, but now I am not certain I will go because of the unpredictability," said Avisha Kulkarni.
