NEW DELHI : InterGlobe Aviation Ltd-operated IndiGo, the country's largest domestic airline, has reimposed compulsory leave without pay (LWP) for all its employees amid the second wave of covid-19, which has resulted in a sharp decline in passenger traffic and revenues of airlines. Number of days applicable for non-crew inflight employees will be informed by their vertical heads shortly," it said. "The second wave has been difficult for all of us and has also resulted in reduction in passenger loads. As a result our commercial schedule had to be curtailed accordingly," IndiGo added in the email to employees. The second wave of covid-19 has further reversed the gains made by airlines during the January-March 2021 period.
