Bhubaneswar: IndiGo airlines has waived off change fees on existing and new domestic and international bookings made till March 31 due to the coronavirus scare.

The waiver will be a big relief to flyers in Bhubaneswar as 90 per cent of the air traffic from the city is handled by IndiGo.

“We understand that some passengers are concerned about committing to travel, given the current coronavirus issue. To take this anxiety away and make their travel hassle-free, we are waiving our normal change fees on all travel during the next two weeks and for all new bookings made in that period,” IndiGo chief commercial officer William Boulter said in a statement.

“This will enable our customers to book their flights at affordable fares, with the flexibility of rescheduling, without change fees, if needed. Whilst the coronavirus is a very serious challenge for us all, we believe that measures such as this will help alleviate its effect on India’s travel,” the statement added.
