Amid congestion at Delhi airport leading to longer check-in and boarding time, Indigo Airlines in a travel advisory has asked passengers to reach at least 3.5 hours prior to domestic departures.

The latest action plan follows civil aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia inspecting the arrangements at Terminal 3 (T3) to deal with the congestion.
Apart from posting real-time updates on waiting time on social media, a command centre will monitor crowding at the gates on a real-time basis, officials said.
Crowd managers and usherers will guide travellers. Further, airlines will be notified about the crowd numbers so that check-in points can be made congestion-free, they added.
Amid rising passenger complaints about long queues and waiting hours at the country's largest airport in recent days, the civil aviation ministry and the stakeholders have taken various measures to deal with the situation.
The officials said an action plan has been drawn up after the visit of the minister to T3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) on Monday morning.
After the visit, Scindia told a television channel that various measures have been taken and that the situation would be resolved in the coming days.
As part of the action plan, number of flights during 5 am to 9 am will be reduced and it will also be explored to move some flights to T1 and T2 or to non-peak hours at T3, they said.
The peak hours are from 5 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 8 pm.
IGIA has three terminals -- T1, T2 and T3. All international flights and some domestic services operate from T3. On an average, it handles around 1.90 lakh passengers and about 1,200 flights daily.
At T3 domestic, additional ATRS (Automatic Tray Retrieval System) machines for baggage check will be deployed to help reduce the congestion, the officials said.
Before the coronavirus pandemic, there were 13 ATRS machines installed on the ground -- 11 for passengers + 2 for crew and specially-abled.
This number has been increased to 16 (10 ATRS + 6 conventional X-ray machines) in the last few days. This will be increased further to 17 soon, and subsequently to 20, the officials said.
Further, they said an analysis of the manpower requirements at immigration counters will be undertaken immediately, and if required, additional manpower will be deployed.
Among other steps, all airlines will be required to keep their counters completely manned, especially during peak hours.
According to the officials, digital display boards showing waiting time at each entry gate and at least one waiting time board at the terminal checkpoint will be put in place.
Over the past few days, passengers have been complaining about long waiting hours at the airport and some also shared pictures of the crowd at the airport on social media.
On December 7, Scindia held a detailed discussion with heads of all major Indian airports, CISF and immigration officials on capacities deployed.
The discussion was also on the capacities required at every point to process domestic and international passengers smoothly through the peak travel season.
During the meeting, various initiatives, including plans for peak hour capacity based on passenger processing capacity at each airport, were also discussed.

Cabin crew's refusal for food to a six-year-old girl because they had to serve the corporate clients first has sparked a discussion online on flight etiquette.
The complaint by the flyer, Dr. OBGYN (@drnngujarathi) said, "The great IndiGo6E experience: My six-year-old kid was hungry. Requested the cabin crew to give her any food available, and willing to pay for it. Even on repeated requests, they refused saying they will serve corporate clients first. My daughter kept crying during the whole flight but they (the cabin crew) didn’t serve (food to her)." 
Responding to the tweet, a representative of the airline commented, "Sir, we understand what you must have gone through. Hope she is fine now. We'll certainly look into it and will connect with you tomorrow during working hours at your registered number." 
The tweet immediately sparked a flurry of comments on Twitter. While some internet users believed that the IndiGo cabin crew should have given preference to the hungry child, others blamed the parent for not carrying food with them. 
"As a parent of a six-year-old, first of all it is your duty to carry food with you. So blame your carelessness first. Agreed, the airline could have acted promptly. So first say that 'I as the parent of a six-year-old kid's parent didn't bring food and was expecting the airlines to serve me first," wrote Twitter user Kamal Raj (@KamalRajbharat).
"This is very bad manners. The airline could have at least served complementary biscuits or snacks to the kid. Adults can understand the situation but children can't. Airlines should be children friendly," wrote user Kiran Patel (@kirnpatel).

In a milestone move, an IndiGo aircraft successfully landed using India’s own satellite-based navigation system named GAGAN, or GPS-aided GEO Augmented Navigation at Kishangarh airport, Rajasthan. The trial was conducted using GAGAN satellite's signals without needing ground-based navigational infrastructure. 
The IndiGo aircraft flew an aircraft with an Instrument Approach Procedure (IAP) with LPV minima of 250ft, using GAGAN Service, the ministry of civil aviation said.
The decision to lower the height to 250 ft provides a substantial operational benefit in poor weather and low visibility conditions. The new technology will help in landing the aircraft which will help in remote airports, according to the statement by the government.
Thus, any airport which hitherto would require higher visibility minima, will be able to accept aircraft benefitting remote airports which are devoid of precision approach capability equipment, the government statement said.
GAGAN was jointly developed by the Airport Authority of India (AAI) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). The indigenous system will provide lateral and vertical guidance on an approach to aircrafts. Being the first such system developed for India & neighboring countries in equatorial region, the system is also meant to aid during disasters such as floods and earthquakes, added AAI. 
GAGAN is a Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) and its main objectives are to provide Satellite-based Navigation services with accuracy and integrity required for civil aviation applications and to provide better Air Traffic Management over Indian Airspace.

IndiGo&nbsp;airline became the first in India to successfully use an indigenously&nbsp;developed navigation system

IndiGo became the first airline in the country to land aircraft using the indigenous navigation system GAGAN, according to a statement issued on Thursday.
The flight was conducted using an ATR-72 aircraft and landed at the Kishangarh airport in Rajasthan on Wednesday morning, using GPS-aided geo-augmented navigation (GAGAN), which has been jointly developed by the Centre-run Airports Authority of India (AAI) and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the statement issued by IndiGo said.
With the successful trial, India joined US, Japan and Europe in an exclusive club with their own Satellite Based Augmentation System(SBAS). Some countries are in the process of developing SBAS&nbsp;including China, Russia and South Korea.&nbsp;

GAGAN is used to provide lateral and vertical guidance when an aircraft is approaching a runway for landing. Its precision is especially useful at small airports where the instrument landing system (ILS) has not been installed.
"In India's civil aviation sector, GAGAN will modernise the airspace, reduce flight delays, save fuel and improve flight safety," the statement said.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has issued a mandate for all aircraft registered in India after July 1, 2021 to be fitted with GAGAN equipment, it added.&nbsp;

As third wave has airlines flying into deep-red, private carrier indiGo has asked the government to cut taxes on jetfuel and repair parts. The country's largest domestic airline, IndiGo said that the government needs to reduce indirect taxes on the sector that has resulted in losses and prevented the sector from boosting commerce and employment. 
IndiGo CEO Ronojoy Dutta on Wednesday urged finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman to bring down excise duty on jet fuel from the current 11 to 5%.
“It is an unreasonable proposition to expect that the industry should earn a 21 per cent margin just to pay taxes to the Government. This unreasonable proposition is resulting in an industry that is chronically ill and is unable to live up to its true potential of boosting commerce and employment,” he added.
In the September-ended quarter of FY22, IndiGo had posted a net loss of Rs 1,435.6 crore as against a loss of Rs 1,194.80 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.
