Mumbai: Voicing concerns over the government's plan to privatise the four state-run airports which might result in a steep hike in user fees, global airlines body IATA has said an all-out sale will only benefit the operators.
"My suggestion is that the government should carry out a rigorous cost-benefit analysis before taking a decision on these four Airports Authority-run airports in Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad and Jaipur," International Air Transport Association (IATA) Director General and Chief Executive Tony Tyler told a group of reporters here.
"Whatever be the decision of the government, it should not lead to a repeat of what has happened in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore where airport costs for both the airlines as well as the passengers have shot over roof," Tyler added.
