New Delhi: The Civil Aviation Ministry has issued a series of
instructions to Air India, including redeployment of its "surplus"
staff, to tighten its belts to face heightened competition, particularly
from the proposed Tata-SIA backed Vistara airline.
In order to turn it into a 'lean and mean' airline to face growing competition from domestic and global carriers, the Ministry wants the national carrier to reduce flight delays, official sources said, adding that the airline should submit monthly reports of all delayed flights with reasons to the office of Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju.
The national carrier should also submit monthly reports on issues affecting its profitability, like fuel costs, loss- making routes and progress in the process of returning aged leased aircraft, they said.
