I had a connecting flight from Bengaluru to Delhi via vijaywada. With an almost 12hour layover at vijayawada
First flight air india express
2nd air india.
I had some issues regarding my airindia flight, for which I called airindia and they never mentioned they and air india express are different!!!

In Bengaluru I took boarding passes for both flight from air india express, no one said anything, i was informed that I’ll receive my checkin baggage at delhi

But at vijayawada, I was made to wait and handed my bag, and at last informed that I had to leave my airport because it closes at 10 (through it’s an international airport)!!!

So at night, alone, in a new city a girl was kicked out of airport
No airlines/CISF/ police helped. I begged that it was new city was scared of hotels and cabs at night but no one budged..

P.s Airindia said more than 10hrs u have to leave airport but it has never happened before

Anything can be done?

When you were booking the fight was the halt time already mentioned?
If so then the company is not too blame.
A lot of airports do shut down at night when they don’t have flights. You can’t blame the airport or the airline for this.
If there is a big Gurudwara nearby it will be open 24hrs so maybe go and eat there and take rest before the airport opens up.

You can only hold the airline responsible if there is any delay because of them.
