Civil aviation ministry says 63 passengers put on ‘No Fly List’ in 2022

The civil aviation ministry on Monday said three passengers have been put on the ‘No Fly List’ this year while a total of 63 passengers were placed on the list in 2022.

A total of 143 passengers have been put on the list since 2017, according to data provided by the ministry to the Rajya Sabha.

These passengers were placed on the list as recommended by airlines’ internal committees set up as per aviation regulator DGCA’s Civil Aviation Requirements (CAR) pertaining to the handling of unruly/disruptive passengers.

The CAR was notified in September 2017 as a measure to deal with the issue related to the handling of unruly/disruptive passengers.
