When asked about the swings in air costs, Union Civil Aviation Minister Kinjarapu Ram Mohan Naidu stated that he wants to make airways the new railways. He stated that the actions to be done to keep airfares under control have yet to be determined, but his goal is to make air travel cheap for the average person. We will hold a policy meeting to take the required steps. Naidu stated that much has changed in the last ten years, including the launch of the Udan initiative by the government. However, it has been impacted by a number of external causes, including Covid.

The country's aviation sector is growing rapidly in the country and the country's airlines are placing record new aircraft orders. India is the world's fastest-growing aviation market, but domestic carriers have to deal with global supply chain disruptions, leading to delays in aircraft deliveries, leading to a rise in airfares.
