Shares of InterGlobe Aviation, the operator of IndiGo, gained 2% to their day's high of Rs 4,943 on the BSE on Friday after it raised charges for several ancillary services on its domestic flights, increasing the cost for passengers using services including infant travel, excess baggage and priority check-in and boarding.
The airline has raised the fee for an infant travelling with an accompanying adult from Rs 2,000 to Rs 3,000. The revised fee applies to domestic flights and is charged separately from the passenger’s ticket fare. Under IndiGo’s rules, infants cannot occupy a separate seat and must travel on the lap of an accompanying adult. Each adult passenger can travel with only one infant.
