In a move to bolster the airline industry, the government is rolling out a temporary 25% discount on airport landing and parking fees for domestic flights. The initiative is set to last for the next three months.
This decision comes in response to escalating global fuel prices, which have placed significant financial strain on airlines. Industry representatives have voiced concerns about the potential need to cancel routes if operational costs remain at current levels.
By reducing these charges, the government aims to provide financial relief to airlines, helping them to navigate the challenges posed by rising fuel costs and maintain their current flight schedules.
