SC Flags Airfare Fluctuations During Festivals

SC Flags Airfare Fluctuations During Festivals

The Supreme Court of India is concerned about how airfares can change a lot, especially during festivals, and thinks it's not fair to passengers.

They asked the government and the people in charge of airlines to explain why this happens and what they can do to make it better.

A social activist also asked the court to make sure there are rules to protect passengers from high prices and unfair changes in services.

The court will talk about this more on February 23.

The activist also mentioned that airlines have reduced the free baggage allowance, which makes traveling more expensive for people.

The court thinks this is important because it affects people who can't plan ahead and have to pay more for tickets when prices are high.
