"Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has revised the Air Transport Circular (ATC)-01 of 2024 titled, "Unbundle of Services and fees by scheduled airlines," as per which, some services like Zero Baggage, Preferential Seating, Fees for Meals/Snacks/Drinks, Charges for Carrying Musical Instruments, etc. have been allowed," reads the DGCA's statement suggesting new guidelines. The regulator has made it clear that these airline services are available "opt-in" and are not required. "There is also a provision for automatic seat assignment to the passengers who have not selected any seat for web check-in prior to scheduled departure," the DGCA stated.
