Mumbai: Apex air travellers body, Air Passengers Association of India
(APAI) today questioned the frequent "special fare" offers by domestic
carriers and termed them as "non-existent", even as it urged the DGCA
not to allow such schemes.
The association, in a communication to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, also sought to know as to what action the regulator intends to take against the carriers on the issue.
"We strongly believe that the DGCA must put an end to this practice of offering ridiculously low fares which are non-existent and are not really available to the passenger," APAI President D Sidhakara Reddy said in his communication to DGCA Prabhat Kumar.
Stating that the Association was forced to draw the regulator's attention towards the issue following several complaints received from the passengers, Reddy said, "most of the times, the schemes are similar and fares announced are also similar. How can this happen unless a cartel is working to fool the travelling public ?"
