AI Express-cabin crew conciliation process: Labour dept to seek inputs from DGCA

The regional labour commissioner will involve aviation regulator DGCA in the ongoing conciliation process regarding a dispute between Air India Express management and a section of cabin crew members. Air India Express is merging AIX Connect, formerly AirAsia India, with itself. A union representing a section of the cabin crew filed a complaint last year, raising concerns about room sharing during layovers. The matter is under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947.
