"All the cabin crew members reported to the commander at the airport 'movement control' as is the practice. Here, since the person dressed shabbily was the supervisor, the commander took action. "The commander apparently told her, 'Madam, I'm sorry, I can't take you on board in this condition.' A replacement was found and the flight departed without her," the official added.An Air India spokesperson confirmed the incident saying, "employee indiscipline in any form cannot be tolerated.'' Every airline has some conduct rules , the spokesperson said, adding that the commander of the flight can take action against a staffer found to be flouting the rules.
