In a relief to fliers, the civil aviation regulator DGCA has rejected
the plea of some airlines to allow them to charge for the check-in
baggage saying such a fee would be applicable only on baggage which
exceeds the free limit of 15 kgs.
Check-in baggage charges (above 15 kgs of free check-in baggage allowance) can be charged separately on opt-in basis as part of the unbundling of services, the DGCA said in an air transport circular which was issued yesterday.
The DGCA circular came days after the government asked it not to accept a proposal by three budget airlines -- IndiGo, AirAsia India and SpiceJet -- to allow them charge for the check-in baggage.
