When civil aviation opens after a two month break, with attenuated capacity, famished managements will grab what comes their way. Analogous to Karnataka raising taxes on liquor by 60%. A three month period of stabilisation, with the government – also the owner of an airline – setting reasonable bands would protect the interests of flyers.
