Mumbai Port Trust's international cruise terminal to be developed with passenger amenities

According to a report by Yogesh Naik for Mumbai Mirror, the Mumbai Port Trust's (MbPT) international cruise terminal, which has been functioning from a cargo terminal converted to handle cruise ships, will finally get a full-fledged terminal with all passenger amenities, including duty-free shops after authorities gave the go-ahead for its development.

The current terminal is located near the Naval dockyard and entry to it is via the Green Gate. Roofed with asbestos sheets, the building is in a shambles. Door handles are broken, the floor is damaged in places and tourists can only see the dirt-covered roof from cruise ships.

Most Indian outbound travellers unperturbed by falling rupee: Yatra.com survey

The depreciation of the rupee has not had much impact on the international travel plans of Indians, according to a survey by Yatra.com. Of the 10,000 respondents, more than 60 per cent are eager to travel, unaffected by the dip in the rupee, and continue to pursue their holiday plans. Eighteen per cent of the respondents said they would not wait for the rupee to rise to go on a holiday, 49 per cent said they would take a holiday irrespective of the fall or rise of the rupee, and 33 per cent said they would wait till the rupee stabilises.

Sharat Dhall, President, Yatra.com, commented, “The rupee weakening has not really had an adverse impact on Indian travellers as most of them are unfazed and continue to make holiday plans. Savvy Indian travellers book well in advance these days and hence are confident about getting good deals within their budget. The drop in oil prices has resulted in lower flight prices this year and a plethora of hotel deals has also helped in driving down the overall cost of an international break. Also, most travellers are optimistic of the rupee strengthening and are very confident that the fluctuation will not wreck their holiday plans.”

India's aviation industry not mature enough: DGCA Chief

According to a PTI report, dubbing the country's civil aviation industry as "not mature enough" at this point of time, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) yesterday sternly shot down the suggestion of some airlines that the compliance of regulations should be handed over to the carriers.

Noting that there were problems in the sector and not just for the airlines, the DGCA Chief, M Sathiyavathy said the regulator would also play the role of facilitator.

"The (domestic aviation) industry is not so mature... It will be premature to hand over all compliance (related matters) to the industry and leaving the DGCA to focus just on oversight," she said.
