About Financial Planning

Financial Planning is the process of determining how an individual can meet life goals through the proper management of his or her financial resources. Examples of life goals include a comfortable retirement, buying a home, saving for a child's education or starting a business.

A Financial Planner is someone who uses the Financial Planning process to help clients figure out how to meet their life goals. A Financial Planner can take a "big picture" view of a client's financial situation and make Financial Planning recommendations based on the client's needs in areas such as budgeting and saving, taxes, investments, insurance and retirement planning. Or, the planner may work with a client on a single financial issue but within the context of that client's overall situation.

A Financial Planner helps a client analyze either all or selected areas of his or her finances and develops a "plan" bringing together all of the client's financial goals, or provides advice on specific areas as needed. This big picture approach to a client's financial goals sets the planner apart from other Financial Advisers, who may have been trained to focus on a particular area of a client's financial life. The Financial Planning process as described on the following page distinguishes Financial Planning practitioners from other Financial Advisers.

Stranded, hungry, and helpless: Last-minute cancellation of Dammam flight sparks chaos at Mangaluru Airport

News Network

November 24,2025

Mangaluru, Nov 24: The original departure time of 11.10 pm was a distant memory for scores of Dammam-bound passengers at Mangaluru International Airport last Friday night, as their Air India Express flight was abruptly cancelled at the eleventh hour, sparking hours of frustration and chaos.

The flight, IX 885, initially scheduled to depart at 11.10 pm on November 22, was subject to two back-to-back reschedules—first pushed to 11.45 pm and then significantly postponed to 1.40 am—before the final, crushing announcement of cancellation was made. For the travellers, many of whom are likely expatriate workers with tight schedules, the last-minute change marked the beginning of a distressing ordeal.

"There was no drinking water, no food, and absolutely no proper guidance. We were left stranded like refugees," complained a stranded passenger.

According to multiple passenger accounts, the airline's ground staff failed to provide adequate support or essential amenities following the cancellation. Complaints poured in about the total absence of drinking water, food provisions, and any reliable guidance from the carrier's representatives. Travellers alleged they were left stranded for a considerable period, with no immediate arrangements or clear communication offered regarding accommodation or alternative travel to send them back home.

The incident has highlighted serious concerns over the carrier's contingency planning and customer service protocols during flight disruptions at one of India's key international gateways. The airline is yet to issue a comprehensive statement addressing the alleged lapse in passenger care.
