New Delhi: Air India is set to impose a ban on plastic products like bags, cups and straws on all its flights.
“From October 2, we are going to completely ban the use of plastics in Air India and the low-cost subsidiary Air India Express,” said Chairman and Managing Director Ashwani Lohani on Thursday.
For special meals, the airline will use eco-friendly birch wood cutlery in place of plastic cutlery. Crew meal cutlery will be replaced with light-weight steel cutlery. Plastic tumblers and teacups will be replaced with paper versions.
