Hello friends, Acceding to the idea of not confusing to a mess, please allow me too to say that let us not confuse the issue of concesional tickets with discounted tickets or reduced tickets. Discounted/reduced tickets could be offers of concerned Airways as a part of their drive to get hold on maximum no. of passengers. But concessional tickets could be with a different entity as a matter of right emanating from a sense of CSR, Govt. policy on disability-rights & empowerment. It is true the concessional moves are till date applicable on Govt. & PSUs, the rights on concessional tickets spare you being subjected to availability of discounted seats. I suppose if Airways could afford the discounted & reduced tickets, they can afford concessional tickets too provided they take it as a matter of right. Escort or not escort, I suppose it should be optional whether I go with or without escort. & concession to escort definitely needs serious considerationh as that makes us literally different from a normal passenger. He can travel a distance spending Rs. 5000 while a person like me with escort cannot travel same distance without more than double to the same if I have to travel carefree.
Allotment of categorical seating rows or wings certainly categorizes us different & discriminable while we are on the move to integrate us with rest of the world. As far as emergency situation, I understand when 'rush for life' is in question, it is my life first for everybody-let the crew save themselves first & then think of the rest. So give us our right to trafvel even if be it for meagre 1 2 or 3 percent but ensure our journey on the given date-this is my plea.
