Indian airlines urged to expedite baggage deliver

In response to growing concerns over delayed baggage services, Indian aviation regulators have issued a directive urging airlines to accelerate their baggage delivery processes. The move aims to enhance passenger experience and address frequent complaints regarding prolonged wait times for luggage retrieval.

The directive emphasises the need for airlines to streamline and expedite the entire baggage handling chain, from check-in to the final delivery at the destination. Airlines are expected to adhere to the new standards promptly to ensure a more efficient and timely baggage delivery system.

Industry insiders suggest that the increased focus on baggage delivery speed is a step towards aligning Indian aviation standards with global benchmarks. This initiative is seen as crucial in enhancing the overall competitiveness of Indian airlines and improving customer satisfaction.

Airlines are expected to implement technology-driven solutions, such as improved tracking systems and automated processes, to meet the prescribed timelines. The move is anticipated to have a positive impact on the overall efficiency of airport operations and contribute to a smoother travel experience for passengers.

The directive comes as part of broader efforts by Indian aviation authorities to elevate the quality of services offered by airlines and align them with international standards, further positioning India as a key player in the global aviation industry.
