- IndiGo faced mass flight cancellations after the rollout of revised Flight Duty Time Limitation (FDTL) rules, prompting temporary exemptions by the DGCA.
- FDTL norms are safety regulations by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to prevent pilot fatigue.
- Revised rules include 48 hours of weekly rest, maximum 2-night landings, and no more than 2 consecutive night duties.
- DGCA, under the Ministry of Civil Aviation, regulates air safety, licenses pilots, and ensures compliance with international standards.
- India is the 3rd-largest domestic aviation market, supporting over 7.7 million jobs, with rapid growth in passenger traffic and airports.
