I had a chance to observe firsthand on 23.1.09 that SpiceJet has operated its flight on Kolkata - Bagdogra sector inspite of its well established competitors- Jet Airways and Kingfisher Airlines - not operating flights on the same sector, around the same time, due to bad weather.
Related incident has been fully covered at:

*It’s beyond my understanding how is it feasible.*
Either **SpiceJet is taking enormous risk** for its passengers safety by flying them into bad weather, while other airlines are cancelling fllghts.
Or, *SpiceJet is right in operating flight *while the blame lies with Jet Airways & Kingfisher airways for not operating flight, due to commercial reasons.This is hard to believe, because both Jet and King’s flight were fully booked.
Can someone spell out what are the **relevant guidelines** which all airlines are supposed to follow in case of flight cancellations on account of bad weather? This would go a long way in clearing this confusion - which has a big impact on passengers safety.
