How to avoid the airline blacklist?
Since June, airlines can maintain blacklists of passengers, which is sufficient grounds for refusing travel. So, why can you get on the airline blacklist?
How does this happen?
This is not an oral reprimand, but a whole process, so it's not handed out to just anyone.
- Hooliganism on board
- Violation of passenger safety
- Disobedience to the aircraft commander's requirements
How does this happen?
This is not an oral reprimand, but a whole process, so it's not handed out to just anyone.
- The pilot must officially document the passenger's offense in writing and provide a copy to the unruly passenger. If they refuse to take it, a note will be made.
- Upon arrival, the offender is met by the police.
- Next, there is a court hearing that will decide whether to hold the unruly passenger criminally or administratively liable. However, a fine for hooliganism of 150 thousand rubles will still have to be paid.
- Only a court (not the airline) can add a defaulting passenger to the blacklist. In this case, the offender receives a notification letter from the airline.
