Greetings
We had flown from Mumbai to Jaipur by GoAir G8 390 and the booking was done through MakeMyTrip for two passengers -Pradeep Mehta and Sudhir Kothari
The relevant information is posted below
We received notification that it is mandatory as per DGCA rules to check on line 60 minutes before departure
I presume there are no such guidelines
When we checked online within stipulated time frame, the GoAir check in system would ask you to choose a seat, all the seats at that point of time are paid seats and none is free. We tried couple of times, eventually fearing that we may be violating DGCA guidelines, we paid 200 per seat, chose seats and checked online
It seems that MakeMyTrip and airlines are hand in glove to dupe and force flyers to go online and eventually pay for seats
That is unfair to extract that extra amount from flyers
Please follow the matter with both MakeMyTrip and GoAir and stop this illegal practice and have our Rs 400 refunded to us
Regards
Sudhir Kothari
