No Fly List In 2022: In the last year 2022, the Ministry of Civil Aviation had kept 63 passengers in the ‘no fly list’, while so far this year three passengers have been kept in the ‘no fly list’. The Ministry of Civil Aviation gave information in this regard in the Rajya Sabha on Monday.
According to the data provided by the Ministry to the Rajya Sabha, since 2017, a total of 143 passengers have been placed in this list. From 2017 to 2022, the maximum number of 66 people were placed in the ‘no fly list’ in 2021.
Reason for being placed on the ‘no fly list’
These passengers, who misbehaved and created ruckus, were included in this list on the recommendation of internal committees of airlines related to civil aviation requirements (CAR) of aviation regulator DGCA. CAR was notified in September 2017.
Since 2017, 143 passengers have been put on the no-fly list
Minister of State for Civil Aviation VK Singh told the Rajya Sabha, “As on date, 143 passengers have been placed on the ‘no fly list’ for a period as per the recommendations of the airline’s internal committee.” According to the data kept by them, Air India has kept three passengers in this list in 2023. In 2022, Indigo had put 46 passengers, Vistara 16 and SpiceJet 1 on the ‘no fly list’.
According to statistics, in 2021, Indigo had put a total of 45 passengers, Vistara 19 and Air Asia 2 passengers in the ‘no fly list’. On the other hand, if we talk about 2020, then Indigo had kept 10 people in the ‘no fly list’. In 2017, the defunct Jet Airways put a passenger on the no-fly list.
Last year 2 cases were related to urination
Last year, two cases included in the no fly list were related to urination, while most of the cases were related to not wearing a mask or not following the instructions of the crew member. Explain that the CAR related to dealing with ill-behaved passengers applies to both domestic and international airlines services.
