DGCA steps in to curb high ticket-cancel charges

New Delhi:  Air travelers may get some relief from the steep increase in airline ticket cancellation charges. The directorate general of civil aviation (DGCA) on Thursday asked airlines to submit their entire data on the charges by Monday.

This comes after DGCA chief M Sathiyavathy took note of numerous complaints she had got in this regard and asked her deputy, joint DG Lalit Gupta, to crack the whip on airlines if the charges are unduly high.

After Sathiyavathy's directive on Thursday, Gupta wrote to all airlines asking them to submit the data by Monday.
