MPs oppose cancellation charge hike by airlines

NEW DEHI: Upset at the hike in cancellation charges by some Indian carriers, 20 MPs on Wednesday demanded that aviation minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju rein in the airlines and get the hike rolled back. Led by BJP's Kirit Somaiya, the MPs gave a list of troubles that air travelers in India face — high fares in peak seasons, delayed and cancelled flights and "arbitrary and very high" cancellation charges.


"These companies control two-third of (domestic) air traffic. As there is no proper forum or redressal system, they go for cartelization and exploit travelers," Somaiya said.
