Urination case: Air India accepts delayed action against unruly flyer; finds DGCA suspension of pilot 'excessive'

NEW DELHI: While accepting delayed action under rules for onboard disruptive behaviour in the case of a flyer allegedly urinating on a woman co-passenger last November, Air India on Tuesday said it finds the DGCA's decision to suspend licence of the pilot-in-command of that flight "excessive and will be assisting him with an appeal."

The regulator had last week fined AI Rs 30 lakh; penalised director inflight services Rs 3 lakh and suspended the PIC's licence for three months in the November 26, 2022, case of a flyer in business class allegedly urinating on a woman co-passenger on a New York-Delhi flight.
