Mumbai: Flying from the Mumbai Airport might become costlier from next year if a proposal floated by regulator AERA to levy an additional fee from passengers to fund a metro rail project there, is accepted.
The Airports Economic Regulatory Authority (AERA) would take a final decision after receiving suggestions from the stakeholders.
The tariff regulator has made the proposal following a submission by airport operator Mumbai International Airport Limited (MIAL) seeking permission to charge additional development fee that would be used towards putting in place metro rail connectivity.
AERA has suggested levying "an additional Development Fee (DF) of Rs 15 for each embarking domestic passenger and Rs 75 for each embarking international passenger towards metro connectivity project."
