    Thanks for the circular,

    There is one confusion in this circular, is this air ticket full refund is not applicable for the passengers booked their tickets before 25 March 20 for the travel before 3rd May? If it yes, kindly circular may be amended accordingly. As airlines are misguiding the passengers.

    Thanks & Regards

    The circular is silent about the travelers who had booked their flights prior to the first lockdown and flight got cancelled by airlines due to total lockdown during traveling period.
    What is fault of traveller when all flight cancelled by Government. Please look into for full refund.

    Hi,

    Thanks a lot for this informative circular.

    What about the travelers who had booked their flights prior to the first lockdown and their flight was scheduled during second lockdown? Won’t they be getting any refunds?
