Check-in at Delhi airport metro to get delayed

New Delhi: The start of check-in facilities on the Airport Metro line may get delayed. The ministry of civil aviation had set a deadline of May 1 to provide check-in at three stations on the route but airline sources said a very slow trial process might see the date getting delayed a bit.
The final meeting to ascertain progress and sort out problems has been called on Wednesday. Sources said the three airlines involved in trials--Air India, Jet Airways and Kingfisher Airlines--would be giving their feedback. "The operational readiness and airport transfer trials started just last week and so far trials have quite slow. Airlines and other agencies concerned also have not had the opportunity to work together so far. It looks possible that check-in may not happen by May 1," said an airline official.
Sources also said financial modalities between airlines and Delhi Airport Metro Pvt Ltd had not been worked out so far.
