sky Air Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Vinay Dubey said on Wednesday that taking advantage of any special occasion, it is not right for airlines companies to increase the price of air tickets wildly. Let us tell you that in the last one month, there is an all-round discussion about the closure of GoFirst airline and the increase in demand for air tickets in the summer season, due to the increase in the fare of the flights. On the other hand, after the train accident in Odisha, the airlines companies had suddenly increased the flight ticket prices from Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata to Odisha. There was a lot of criticism on social media. In such a situation, this comment of the CEO of an airlines company is an eye-opener for the air companies.
Instructions to take reasonable price of ticket
The Ministry of Civil Aviation has also asked the airline companies to make a system of reasonable fares. In this context, Dubey said that the Ministry of Civil Aviation is very clear on the issue of increasing fares to take advantage of the situation and it is not talking about the average price of air tickets in India at this time. Dubey, co-founder of Aakash Air, said, “The government is worried about the exorbitant fares being charged. Being associated with the airline community, we should ensure that the ticket prices are not exorbitant. “He said,” It is not a good thing to increase the price to take advantage of a particular situation. The average ticket price in India is one of the most customer-friendly in the world. Indian air customers have the best ticket price system. It’s a fact and the tickets are much cheaper than any other country in the world.”
The government also swung into action
After the skyrocketing prices of air tickets in India, the government has also swung into action and has held a meeting with the airlines and asked them to make a mechanism to fix reasonable prices for air tickets. Airlines have also been asked to keep an eye on ticket prices. Air ticket prices in India are out of government control and airlines fix fares at their own level.
