Or the frustration of being charged ₹1,500 for a 10kg bag that was free six months ago. It’s not just you. And now, the Supreme Court is finally stepping in. In a quiet but powerful move, the Court has given the Centre just three weeks to finalize rules that could change how airlines price tickets, handle baggage, and refund cancellations. Why now? Because airlines aren’t complying; and the Court isn’t bluffing. One judge even said, “If airlines are not complying, then ground them.” This isn’t about fancy regulations. It’s about fairness. A social activist, S. Laxminarayanan; who’s flown over 100 flights; pushed this case, demanding transparency. He’s not asking for caps. He’s asking for clarity. And the Court is listening. What’s next? Rules due by September 7. Will they fix everything? Probably not. But for the first time, passengers might actually get clear answers; not hidden charges. The biggest story in Indian aviation isn’t about new routes or bigger planes. It’s about whether you’ll finally get to know what you’re paying for.
