Go First Crisis: Good news for air travelers! Go First, an airline company currently facing financial difficulties, has announced that it will resume flight operations starting from May 27.
The airline had temporarily suspended its flights on May 3 due to ongoing insolvency resolution proceedings. However, they have expressed hope and confidence in soon resuming bookings and restoring regular operations.
Booking Suspension and Resumption: Following instructions from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Go First had to temporarily halt flight bookings until further notice.
The airline has now confirmed that flights until May 26, 2023, have been canceled for operational reasons.
Customers who have already booked tickets during this period will receive a full refund. The airline assures passengers that they are working towards resolving the situation and will restore booking services soon.
Impact on Air Ticket Prices: The suspension of Go First’s flight services had a visible effect on air ticket prices, with some routes experiencing ticket price increases of up to five times.
With the resumption of Go First flights, it is expected that ticket prices will stabilize, providing convenience and relief to the common man. Additionally, Go First has taken steps to initiate refunds for affected customers.
New Website for Refunds: Go First has launched a dedicated website, gofirstclaims.in/claims, to facilitate the refund process for passengers with canceled flight tickets.
Customers can submit their refund requests on the website, which will be processed after verifying payments made through travel agents or other websites.
As Go First works towards resolving its financial crisis, the resumption of flight operations and the subsequent reduction in ticket prices will bring relief to travelers and contribute to the overall convenience of air travel.
