As we were about to board, the unpredictable monsoon showers came crashing down. In that very moment, the ground staff didn’t scramble, they didn’t panic — instead, they formed a human belt with umbrellas, ensuring not a single passenger got drenched. Not a drop touched us. And yet, it touched something deeper. Because this is culture — not slogans on walls, but small, thoughtful actions lived out every day. Actions that quietly build loyalty, trust, and love for a brand. It left me reflecting. What are we doing at our organisation to build loyalty?” Check out the post here: IndiGo’s warm responseIndiGo responded warmly to the post, commending its staff for their thoughtful gesture.
