Airlines will be operating lesser number of flights in the current summer schedule as the civil aviation authorities decided to be 'little more moderate" in approving the number of services in the backdrop of IndiGo's massive operational disruptions last December, reports Internet.
A highly-placed source said the civil aviation ministry and regulator DGCA do not want a situation similar to what happened at IndiGo in December last year.
The summer schedules of the airline have been approved after taking into consideration the availability of aircraft, pilots and other aspects, the source said.
In the domestic summer schedule, airlines are set to operate at least 10 per cent less flights compared to the number flights flown during the same period a year ago.
Aviation watchdog DGCA has published the domestic flights summer schedule.
