With no clear headway in the Air India management-executive pilots negotiations, taxi drivers at the domestic and international airports are losing sleep as the standoff enters its fifth day.
Sanjay Yadav, a cool cab driver at the International airport, said, "I have been waiting for nearly 10 hours today, and not a single passenger has turned up."
Another cab driver Shreyash Kumar said, "Normally we leave the airport around midnight, but as the flights have not been cancelled we have to wait till 3 am for the passengers to return."
Deserted cafeteria
With several international flights being cancelled the cafeteria at the airport wore a deserted look, and the losses are taking a heavy toll on the shopkeepers.
Executive Director Air India Jitendra Bhargava said, "We are hopeful of a result in the meeting today, but as of now the strike is still on."
