Mumbai: Air India's international budget arm Air India Express on Wednesday said it will not charge any fee on re-booking of tickets by the passengers travelling to Kuwait between March 8-15 following the issuance of fresh instructions by the Kuwaiti government in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak.
Such passengers can rebook a date that falls within seven days of the original booking date, Air India Express said in a statement.
The instructions mandatorily require the passengers to undergo complete medical examination and to obtain a certificate from the health centres approved by the Kuwait Embassy in India to confirm that they are free from coronavirus before entering the Gulf country. The airline said there are five such centres each at Kozhikode and Kochi and another three centres at Mangalore.
"In order to facilitate the compliance of this requirement, Air India Express has decided to allow free date modification to passengers who are booked to fly to Kuwait between March 8 and 15," the airline said.
The global death toll due to the deadly disease has mounted to 3,123 and confirmed cases surpassed 91,783.
