In a major relief for air travellers, the Indian government has directed all airlines to ensure that at least 60% of seats on every flight are provided free of charge. The move aims to reduce additional fees charged for seat selection and improve fairness for passengers.
The directive, issued by the Ministry of Civil Aviation through DGCA, is designed to enhance transparency and create uniform practices across airlines. Until now, many airlines charged passengers extra for preferred seats during booking or check-in.
Additionally, the government has asked airlines to seat passengers booked under the same PNR together and clearly display passenger rights. These steps are expected to make air travel more convenient and consumer-friendly.
Air travellers ke liye ek badi relief news aayi hai. Government ne airlines ko order diya hai ki har flight me kam se kam 60% seats free di jayein, yani seat selection ke liye extra charge nahi liya jayega.
Ye decision isliye liya gaya hai taaki passengers se liye ja rahe hidden charges kam ho aur sabko fair access mile. Pehle airlines booking ya check-in ke time preferred seats ke liye extra paisa leti thi.
Saath hi, government ne ye bhi kaha hai ki same booking (PNR) wale passengers ko saath bithaya jaye aur passenger rights clearly display kiye jayein. Isse travel experience aur transparent aur convenient banega.
