Posted on 8th Dec 2022 by rohit kumar

Seeing the way the airports are getting crowded despite the huge hike in airfares, the Ministry of Civil Aviation has already started making arrangements. On Wednesday, Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia called a meeting of all concerned departments and officials on this subject and also gave instructions to take some steps. There is also a directive in this that there should be a special strategy during the 'peak hour' at the major airports of the country, during this time passengers should be informed in the plane itself which row they have to go to so that immigration does not take much time.

 

The decision to increase the number of security personnel during checking

Along with this, it has also been decided to increase the number of security personnel engaged in baggage checking and hand baggage screening. Along with this, the Civil Aviation Minister has asked to make a strategy to find a long-term solution to this problem using state-of-the-art technology.

 

The decision was taken keeping in mind the festive season

Scindia has informed on Twitter that a detailed discussion has been held to improve the convenience of passengers during the busy festive season. He has also informed us that it should be ensured that the landing card is given to the international passengers inside the aircraft so that the time spent at the immigration counter can be reduced.

 

Record passengers are using air service

Explain that this preparation is being done at the government level when these figures have come to the fore that more than four lakh passengers have used flight services continuously for the last four days at the domestic airports of India. This is the first time after Corona that so many passengers have traveled by air for four consecutive days. These are likely to increase further in the coming days.
