Air Asia India on Saturday informed that its pact with Air India passenger transfer in case of disruption was a “standard" one. Air India and Air Asia India have entered into a kind of agreement that allows them to carry each other's passengers in case there is a disruption of operations. This agreement allows Air India and Air Asia to alternate first available flights in case of disrupted operations, thereby minimalizing passenger woes. The two carriers have entered into the IROPS (Irregular Operations) arrangement through a pact, which allows transfer of passengers to each other's flights in case of disrupted operations, according to the communication. Last month, Tata Group completed the takeover of Air India.
