The Airline Pilots Association of India (ALPA) has written to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and the Civil Aviation Secretary, raising serious concerns over the continued operation of commercial flights through active conflict zones like the Gulf.
In a letter seen by NDTV Profit, ALPA said commercial airlines do not possess the necessary intelligence and surveillance infrastructure to independently assess evolving threats in active war zones. The association warned that pilots have been repeatedly seeking clarity on the status and validity of their insurance coverage while operating in such high-risk regions.
According to ALPA, no documentary evidence or formal assurance has so far been provided to confirm that adequate war-risk insurance coverage remains valid for crew members operating in or near conflict zones.
