Dr Surinder Singla, then 62, and his wife, Neena, had paid more than ₹1.5 lakh for round-trip tickets from Delhi to San Francisco. With Singla forced to cancel his return flight after testing positive, the couple ultimately spent an another more than ₹1 lakh on fresh tickets. In its ruling, the commission ordered Air India to refund more than ₹1 lakh with 7% annual interest from Oct 2022, and to pay ₹10,000 each in compensation for mental agony and litigation costs. The court gave the airline 60 days to comply or face penalties. The panel, led by president Jot Naranjan Singh Gill, cited a 2020 Supreme Court judgment requiring airlines to refund passengers whose flights were disrupted by the pandemic. MakeMyTrip, through which the tickets were booked, was cleared of responsibility as only a facilitator. The order was passed ex parte after Air India failed to appear during hearings. Advocate Yogesh Gupta, representing the Singlas, called the decision "a victory for passengers unfairly burdened by rigid airline policies". Air India has until Sept 26 to comply with the order.

India, China agree to resume direct flights between the two nations
India and China have agreed to resume direct flight connections between Chinese mainland and India at the earliest, the Indian foreign ministry said in a statement on two countries had a standoff that began in 2020 and had strained bilateral ties, which impacted air travel between the countries. "Both sides agreed to resume direct flight connectivity between Chinese mainland and India at the earliest, and finalize an updated Air Services Agreement. They also agreed on the facilitation of visas to tourists, businesses, media and other visitors in both directions," said the official statement of MEA. Direct flights between India and China stopped during the pandemic, forcing travelers to take indirect routes via hubs like Hong Kong or Singapore. The reopening of air routes comes amid shifting geopolitical between India and China worsened in 2020 following border clashes that resulted in the deaths of 20 Indian soldiers and an unknown number of Chinese troops. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to attend the SCO summit in Tianjin from August 31, where he will be meeting Chinese President Xi Jinping. Indian aviation authorities and major airlines such as Air India and IndiGo have been informed but have not commented publicly. Before flights were halted, Indian carriers including Air India and IndiGo operated routes to China alongside Chinese airlines like Air China and China Southern. The current plan is for Indian airlines to resume services soon. Earlier attempts to restart direct flights were made in January and June but stalled amid diplomatic tensions. Renewed progress has been made only in the last two weeks, with airlines now being briefed on the plans.
