Kingfisher halts ticket sales ahead of Dubai shutdown

Indebted Indian carrier Kingfisher Airlines has stopped issuing tickets to UAE travel agents ahead of plans to cease its flights to Dubai from Sunday.
“We have had access to Kingfisher Airlines removed from our system around two weeks ago,” Basel Abu Alrub, managing partner of Dubai-based travel agency Utravel confirmed.
“This really doesn’t come as a surprise to us as we have been hearing various news and reports about the airline’s condition and therefore we have issued an internal circulation more than a month ago advising our ticketing agents to stop issuing Kingfisher Airline tickets,” he added.
The move comes as it was reported the airline, which is battling US$1.3bn in debt, plans to stop flying to Dubai from Sunday and cease all its international operations from April 10.
