The country’s leading private air-carrier, Kingfisher Airlines, has decided to cut fares across its network from January 1.
The fare-cut is expected to be in the range of 12–15%. However, the company did not specify the quantum by which fares would come down.
It may be noted that Civil aviation minister Praful Patel had repeatedly asked the airlines to pass on the benefit of sharp a drop in ATF prices to passengers.
For the last four months, a dramatic fall in ATF prices has been noticed.
