NEW Delhi: In a pioneering initiative that could offer much relief to flyers, Civil Aviation Minister Rammohan Naidu on Monday launched ‘Fare Se Fursat’, a service on the government-owned regional carrier, Alliance Air.
An official release said, “Fair Se Fursat is aimed at giving passengers freedom from the stress of fluctuating airfares and promoting ease of flying in the country.”
Under this scheme, Alliance Air will offer a single, fixed fare that remains constant regardless of the booking date, even on the day of departure. The initiative will be implemented on a pilot basis from October 13 to December 31, across select routes, to evaluate its operational feasibility and passenger response.
