Airlines will stop paying commisions to travel agents

From 1st November all airlines will stop paying commissions to 3000 travel agents around the country. This means the passengers' will have to pay a flat fee to the travel agents for booking ticket, thus encouraging people to book tickets directly with the airlines office/website.

The airlines has already sent letters regarding this to all the travel agents. As a result of this nearly 40 percent of the travel agents are expected to shut shops and lakhs would loose their job.
