Strict Action<\/strong> Against Offenders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In recent weeks, Air India took action by imposing a two-year flying ban on an individual who caused physical harm to two female cabin crew members during a Delhi-London flight on April 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) regulations, unruly air passengers can be subject to flying bans for different durations. According to the guidelines, unruly passenger behavior can be categorized into three levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unruly behavior on flights is categorized into different levels. Level 1 includes actions such as physical gestures, verbal harassment, and disruptive intoxication. Subsequently, Level 2 involves physically abusive behavior like pushing, kicking, or sexual harassment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, Level 3 pertains to life-threatening conduct such as damaging aircraft systems, physical violence, choking, and severe assault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The duration of a flying ban for an unruly passenger depends on the level of their behavior. Further, Airlines have internal committees in place to assess the situation and determine the appropriate length of the ban.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
