| Security
Procedures: Your security is our prime concern. To ensure the security of
aircraft and passengers, security regulations have been made more stringent than before.
While you may face some inconvenience during security checks, it is in your best interest. Security regulations are framed by the
Bureau of Civil Aviation Security and are required to be implemented by all operators. The
manpower for the execution of these regulations is drawn from the State Police. In
addition, we also have our own security set up to make sure that all laid down regulations
are meticulously followed. Some of the security procedures are listed below:
- Your ticket is checked at the time
of entering the terminal building.
- At major airports, the checked
baggage is passed through X-ray machines and a 'security checked' sticker affixed before
entering the check-in area.
- Passengers are checked through
personal frisking, and/or Door Frame Metal Detectors and Hand Held Metal Detectors.
- The cabin baggage is either
checked through X-ray machines or physically examined.
- Security personnel put a security
stamp on boarding passes and cabin baggage labels.
- In case of a 'Red-Alert', a
secondary security check is also carried out near the stepladder before embarkation.
- Checked baggage has to be
personally identified by the passengers before it is loaded on the aircraft. Wherever the
boarding is through aerobridges, passenger and baggage reconciliation is done through an
internal matching system instead of physical baggage identification.
- Ten percent of the checked
baggage/cabin baggage is usually physically checked at random.
- If you wish to come back from the
security hold area after the completion of security check, you have to get a fresh
boarding pass in place of the old boarding pass from our check-in counters. You also have
to undergo the security check again. This facility is available only in extreme emergency.
- Passengers in transit have to
remain on board during the ground halt of the aircraft.

Advice to Passengers:
Please keep the following in mind while travelling:
- Don't accept any packet or baggage
from any person.
- Don't leave your baggage
unattended within the airport area. It will be considered as a suspicious object and may
be removed by airport security staff.
- If you are carrying firearms and
cartridges, do declare them. Concealment is an offence under Aircraft Act and Rules.
- Battery cells/dry cells carried in
the cabin baggage or in any electrical or electronic item are liable to be removed and we
may not be in a position to deliver the same at destination. Please carry them in the
checked baggage.
Articles, which are not permitted
in the cabin due to security reasons, will be taken charge of by security personnel and
will be loaded in the baggage hold after applying a 'Limited Release Baggage Label'. We
may refuse to accept any liability for the transportation of these articles.
Dangerous Goods:
According to the Dangerous Goods Regulations,the following articles are not allowed to be
carried in your baggage aboard any carrier:
- Explosives, ammunition and
fireworks
- Compressed gases
- Flammable solids and liquids
- Oxidising substances, organic
peroxides

substances
- Radioactive material
- Corrosives
- Other miscellaneous articles such
as mercury, magnetised materials, offensive or irritating materials, briefcase, attache

In addition to the above
dangerous goods, carrying knives, scissors, sharp edged implements, firearms, ammunition,
