Chennai: Air Passengers Association of India has urged the aviation ministry to ensure airlines have a uniform policy in air fare structure, which is passenger friendly and transparent.
The cancellation charges levied by airlines have increased by over 300 per cent in the last four years. This must be addressed when they have special low fare offers. “We are certain that the Ministry will formulate a policy by advising the regulator,” the association’s president D Sudhakara Reddy, said in a press release.
Some of the airlines are charging transaction fee and convenience fee that are totally unjustified. They relate to booking on the website for which they must offer a special reduction considering the fact that they have no one else to pay for issuing the ticket, the release said.
