Guidelines given by the Government of India to be followed by passengers travelling via flights
New Classes of Fares likely to be implemented:
We don’t plan to leave the middle seat vacant, this does not meet the physical distancing requirement. We take other corresponding preventive measures. Keeping seat vacant will pass cost increase to customers, this option has not been pursued the world over. – @HardeepSPuri pic.twitter.com/qMNrYsUt7W— PIB India #StayHome #StaySafe (@PIB_India) May 21, 2020
Lowest and highest possible fares have been fixed for each class of flights
Further, a rider has been set that 40% of the seats have to be sold at a price less than the mid-point of the price band for each section
