New Delhi: Infrastructure constraint, high operational cost of airlines, low yields due to competitive environment and currency exchange rate fluctuations are the four challenges that the aviation sector is facing currently, Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said on Wednesday.
In a written reply to the Rajya Sabha, Puri said: "The Indian civil aviation sector has shown consistent double digit growth of passenger traffic more than four years in the past."
The Union minister was responding to a question about what are the constraints India faces in its road to become the third-largest aviation market in the world. The US, China and the UK are the current top three aviation markets in the world.
"Challenges facing the aviation sector, inter alia, include: infrastructure constraint, high operational costs of the airlines; low yields due to competitive environment; currency exchange rate fluctuations adversely affecting profitability, etc," Puri said.
Yield is the average fare that is earned by the airline per passenger per kilometre.
