Mumbai: Mumbai airport is set to follow in Delhi's footsteps by increasing airport charges. The Airport Economic Regulatory Authority (AERA) would consider Mumbai airport's demand over the next two months to raise charges by around 500%.
Airlines, struggling to keep operations going, will have no choice but to pass on the hike to passengers, industry sources said, predicting a hike of at least 15% in fares once AERA clears the increase in airport fee for Mumbai. On Wednesday, AERA allowed a 345% hike in airport landing and parking charges, or user development fee (UDF), at Delhi's IGI Airport over the next two years.
