- IndiGo passenger slams in‑flight snack combo, calling it a “packet of disappointment.”
- Viral post shows sandwich, crackers and juice labelled salty, odd and poorly made.
- Social media users share mixed reactions, many echoing complaints about airline food.
An IndiGo passenger travelling from Delhi recently vented his frustration over the airline's in-flight snack combo. The meal, which included a sandwich, pepper crackers, mixed fruit juice, and a cranberry cookie, was described by the passenger as underwhelming. Sharing a picture of the sandwich wrapped in green paper alongside the snack bag, he wrote, “IndiGo's snack bag is the best example of how a bad product can be sold well with good packaging, giving amazing cost savings!” Calling the combo a “packet of disappointment at 34,000 feet,” he revealed that booking his flight last minute meant the snack was automatically bundled with his ticket.

He elaborated how the snack bag looked promising while booking the ticket during rush hours, but soon turned into a regret. The passenger also revealed its contents, which included -
- A sandwich “full of veggies, dressing and … lot of salt!"
- A packet of some “weird version of pepper crackers", which the X user ironically revealed about not watching before and called the most palatable item in the snack combo.
- A Paper Boat mix-fruit juice, which, according to him, is from “another company specialising in great packaging,” and,
- A cranberry cookie that “did not look like a cookie and legit tasted like cough syrup."
He concluded the post, mentioning, “Tldr; This little bundle of sorrow is best avoided."

Social media users soon began expressing mixed reactions to the Delhi passenger's IndiGo in-flight meal.
A user wrote, “You are not alone. 23% airline passengers had an issue with Indigo's food quality in 2025. If the overpricing is factored in, the number will likely go up to 70%+."
Someone commented, “I thought I was the only one who felt that way about the chicken junglee. That is the only thing I take normally ... With coffee. But they replaced the tasty Nescafé with tasteless Sleepy Owl.”

A frequent traveller also mentioned, “The quality of food is really bad at IndiGo. I have travelled internationally also with Indigo, and the food is just hopeless."
“I declined the sandwich that was offered as part of the seat upgrade, but the stewardess insisted I take it anyway. Threw it away upon exiting the plane," read a comment.
Airlines bundling snack combos with passenger seats has angered everyone. IndiGo hasn't responded to the viral post yet.
