NEW DELHI: The government has decided to remove the cap on airfares it had imposed during the Covid pandemic restrictions and from September, all airlines will be free to decide what they want to charge from their passengers.
“The decision to remove airfare caps has been taken after a careful analysis of daily demand and prices of air turbine fuel. Stabilisation has set in and we are certain that the sector is poised for growth in domestic traffic in the near future,” tweeted civil aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia.
