Don't upgrade seats of family, friends: Air India to pilots
Air India CMD Pradeep Singh Kharola has issued an order asking pilots and crew members to refrain from unofficially upgrading the seats of their friends and relatives from economy to higher classes. Kharola added, "Officials/crew members responsible for all such unauthorised upgrades shall face strict disciplinary action." Notably, Air India offers last-minute seat upgrades to flyers for a fee.
