Mumbai: With customers scared after a private helicopter crashed earlier this month, Pawan Hans, the company that provides chopper rides in Mumbai in collaboration with the Maharashtra Tourism Development Corporation (MTDC), would try to revive its joyride business by subsidising charges, senior officials said. The MTDC services were suspended in April this year, three months after taking off on January 7. Only 383 passengers opted for the ride during the period, with just one customer in April. The chopper that crashed on December 11, killing two passengers and the pilot, was operated by a private firm, Aman Aviation.
“The crash has created a fear. The public sentiment is against us. Hence, when we will restart our services early in January, and offer subsidised fares to attract the public,” said a senior official of Pawan Hans.
