The central government has put on hold its earlier directive under which airlines were required to offer at least 60 per cent of seats in a flight without levying any additional charge from April 20, said the Ministry of Civil Aviation on Thursday. The development comes after airlines raised concerns over the new guidelines.
The directive would remain suspended until further orders while the government conducts a detailed examination of the issue, the Centre said in a 2 April letter to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).
