New Delhi, June
18:
The
skyrocketing fares in the domestic skies are set to ease soon.
At a recent
meeting with the civil aviation regulator, airlines assured the
Director-General of Civil Aviation that domestic airfares at the highest level
will fall by 5-20 per cent across the network in the next few days.
“When a request
is made in public interest by the DGCA, almost all airlines follow it. There
will be a reduction in fares in the next few days. Watch the airline Web sites
and the lower fares will be visible,” the Director-General, Mr Bharat Bhushan,
told Business Line.
At the meeting
it was pointed out that although price of aviation turbine fuel had gone up by
about 16 per cent in June as compared to the same year previously, the average
increase in airfares had been “phenomenal”.
An in experienced traveler would imagine that their land contains the finest buildings, the biggest towns, the richest, best-fed, happiest people in the world.
