Go First Update News: Go First has once again announced the cancellation of its aircraft operations till 30 July 2023. The company tweeted that due to operational reasons, GoFirst cancels flights till July 30.
The company has again and again apologized to the passengers on every side. Facing the financial crisis from May 3, 2023, Go First had announced the cancellation of all its flights, which is continuing till now.
But the hope of GoFirst flying again has started getting tied up. Last Friday, July 21, the regulator of the aviation sector, DGCA, has given permission to GoFirst to fly with conditions. DGCA has asked to start operations after availability of interim funds and approval of flight schedules from the regulator.
DGCA has allowed GoFirst to operate 115 flights daily with 15 aircraft. Regulation said that airlines can start booking tickets after the flight schedule is approved. On July 25, the company tweeted that it has started handling flights from Mumbai.
Airlines operate handling flights first after the aircraft has not flown for a long time. Through this rule, DGCA wants to ensure that the aircraft is ready for operation.
The DGCA, while allowing GoFirst to fly, said in its conditions that it is very important for the airlines to have an air operator certificate. Also, the aircraft used in the operation should be in a better condition to fly.
No aircraft should be used in operation without a handling flight. DGCA said that the resolution professional will have to provide information about flight schedules, aircraft condition, pilots, cabin crew, AMEs, flight dispatchers to the regulator.
