Here’s one rewritten version of the headline:Indian Airlines Push for Relaxation of New Fatigue Management Regulations

Major Indian airlines, including IndiGo, Air India, SpiceJet, and Air India Express, have requested the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to extend the implementation of revised flight duty norms. The airlines claim that the new regulations, set to increase pilot rest periods and reduce night landings, will require additional crew and a robust fatigue risk management system. The initial rollout was scheduled for June 2023, but there is now uncertainty surrounding its implementation. Pilot associations are pushing for action by February 2025, citing rapid growth in the Indian aviation sector. The airlines’ requests for more time are likely driven by the need to adapt to the new regulations, which aim to improve pilot safety and fatigue management. The DGCA will now consider the airlines’ requests, taking into account the concerns and demands of the pilot associations and the broader aviation industry.
