Airlines to meet DGCA over punctuality report
Airlines are known to get into price wars. But domestic carriers in India seem to have got into a squabble over punctuality records. At least 2 domestic airlines, including SpiceJet, are set to meet the aviation safety regulator over the latter’s decision to review the computation of flight punctuality in India. The DGCA recently set up a panel to review the calculation of on-time performance of airlines days after IndiGo Airlines accused the Mumbai airport of inaccuracy. “SpiceJet has ensured that it maintains its impeccable operational standards even in harsh weather conditions to continuously emerge as the best on-time performing airline,” said the carrier. After discounts, on-time performance has become one of the primary yardsticks to woo passengers in India. <br/>
