In a bid to reduce passenger discomfort, Civil Aviation Minister Suresh Prabhu today directed the Ministry officials to review issues such as high airfares, passenger rights and safety as the financially challenged Jet AirwaysNSE -3.57 % struggles to stay afloat.
The union minister in a tweet said, “Directed Secretary @MoCA_GoI to review issues related to Jet Airways, especially increasing fares, flight cancellations etc. Asked him (Pradeep Singh Kharola) to take necessary steps to protect passenger rights and safety; and to work with all stakeholders for their well being.”
