DGCA SEEKS FARES ON WEBSITES; MALLYA LASHES OUT

Aviation regulator DGCA today directed all Indian carriers to show route-wise and date-wise airfares on their websites by December 8 evening and ensure transparency so that flyers do not feel cheated by high ticket prices. Meanwhile Kingfisher Airlines promoter Vijay Mallya said airfares should not be capped by regulatory authorities. "There is no case of capping airfare in a liberalised environment, be it at upper or lower band. It is a function of demand and supply," he said. Mallya refuted the contention that airlines were overcharging the customers saying, "It is not exploitation by the airlines. Airlines are fighting for market share, so demand and supply has to be respected."
