The SpiceJet flight reached Shri Guru Ramdas Ji International Airport in Amritsar at 5.07 am instead of 3.20 am.
Manav Bansal, a passenger who arrived in Amritsar from Dubai, stated that the "flight was delayed to luggage issues." However, when they reached Amritsar, half of the passengers' luggage was missing.
