NEW DELHI: In a major move aimed at protecting flyers, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has proposed several measures regarding the refund of airline tickets. Key changes include an option to cancel tickets without any charges within 48 hours, a requirement for airlines to specify the refund amount in case of cancellation, and the refund of charges such as the User Development Fee (UDF) if a ticket is not utilized. These measures follow numerous complaints from the public over unethical practices by airlines.
