India proposes new rules letting airlines ban disruptive passengers for up to 30 days without government approval, aiming to improve safety and reduce delays.
India’s aviation regulator, the DGCA, has proposed new rules allowing airlines to immediately ban disruptive passengers for up to 30 days without waiting for government approval.
The change aims to improve safety and reduce delays in addressing unruly behavior such as verbal harassment, intoxication, tampering with emergency equipment, or attempting to enter the cockpit.
Airlines would be required to report bans to the DGCA and maintain a database, though banned individuals won’t be added to a public no-fly list.
The move streamlines enforcement, replacing a current process that can take up to 45 days.
The rules apply to all flights to or from India and include early intervention measures at airports.
Public feedback is being sought before finalization.
