Air India has announced a special plan to offer 50% off base fares for senior citizens. It has also announced that the scheme would apply only to domestic flights and that only those over 60 years of age would be eligible for the offer.

According to the official website of Air India, the offer is only available to senior citizens of Indian nationality and those who happen to be the permanent residents of India.

According to the official announcement of the Air India offer, 50% off on base fares for selected booking classes in Economy Cabin will be issued.
