Скачать или смотреть Airlines can’t bar passenger for disability, reduced mobility: New DGCA rule

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) told airlines on Friday airlines cannot deny boarding to any person on the basis of disability and/or reduced mobility without a doctor examining the person and stating that the said passenger’s health may deteriorate during the course of the journey.

The aviation regulator also mandated that airlines get a doctor’s opinion before deciding to bar passengers from boarding the plane on the ground that their condition may deteriorate during the flight. If the airline still decides to bar the passenger, the civil aviation requirements (CAR) notified by the regulator require that the official concerned conveys the decision and the reasons in writing.
