New Delhi: Concerned over its on-time performance (OTP), Government has asked Air India to achieve higher efficiency in its operations and set a target of 90 per cent OTP for this month.
The state-owned carrier had delivered an OTP of 82.4 per cent in September, and stood just one-notch above the start-up regional carrier Air Paegasus, among the nine domestic airlines, in the ranking.
The target was set during a recent review meeting of the airline, which was chaired by Civil Aviation Ashok Gajapathi Raju, sources said.
"Though Air India has improved its OTP quite considerably in the last few months, Ministry feels that it needs to boost this further, more so when most of the other domestic carriers are clocking over 85 per cent," sources said.
