The Kerala government on Friday decided to hold discussions with airline companies in the wake of long-pending complaints of expatriates in the Gulf region about exorbitant ticket fares to the State during festive and vacation seasons.
A high-level meeting, chaired by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan here, took up the matter to examine how the State government could intervene in the matter, an official statement said.
The meeting also decided to examine whether chartered flights are available from Gulf countries for a lesser rate than airline companies.
