Higher airfares likely as IndiGo hikes fuel charge over fuel price rise
IndiGo announced a hike in distance-based fuel charges effective from Tuesday, citing sustained high jet fuel prices amid the West Asia crisis. Domestic flight charges will increase by ₹100 to ₹350 per sector, while international flights will see hikes of up to ₹2,500 per sector. This adjustment is likely to further elevate airfares already impacted by the ongoing conflict.
