A source informed that the meeting was supposed to begin at 5.30 pm so it was important for Preity to catch the 3 pm flight. After she got off-loaded, Preity even tried to catch the next flight but it was full and the one after was too late for her to make it to the meeting. So, she stayed back in Mumbai. She was supposed to catch a flight to the US from Delhi on Wednesday night but had to reschedule her flight and will now fly from Mumbai. Well, Jet Airways spokesperson had a different story to tell. The spokesperson informed that a guest was waiting in the lounge to board flight 9W 305 and would not board the flight as the guest was awaiting a parcel to arrive for her at the airport. Airline staff met her a few times requesting her to board as it was nearing flight closure time. Unfortunately, the guest decided to wait for the parcel to arrive. The airline offloaded the guests check in bag and offered her an alternate flight, which was declined. Preity Zinta is yet to respond to Jet Airways statement.
