NEWS| Domestic air fares to go up from Nov 5

Domestic flights will become more expensive from Monday. Jet Airways, Paramount Airways and the low-cost airline SpiceJet are to raise their fares by Rs 150 to offset the increase in price of aviation turbine fuel.

This is the second successive month that the airlines are hiking the fuel surcharge.



State-owned Air India was among those yet to take a final decision on this.
In a statement, Jet Airways said that from November 5, the fuel surcharge would go up by Rs 150 on all types of fare for travel in business and economy class.

The surcharge, however, would have to be paid if the tickets are presented for any voluntary change on or after November 5, the statement adds.
