In 1944, the world’s governments agreed to the setting up of an
Organisation to establish standards for things such as navigational
equipment and safety. The Organisation was named I.C.A.O.
At its conception, the aim of ICAO was to ensure the safe and
orderly growth of international civil aviation throughout the world,
meet needs of the people of the world for safe, regular, efficient
and economical air transportation, ensure that rights of contracting
states are fully respected and that every contracting state has a fair
opportunity to operate international airlines.

Human Factor
What is stress?
The way our mind and body reacts to the demands of our lifestyle.
We experience ‘fatigue’ after intense physical or mental effort. Fatigue
comes from consuming our physical or mental resources.
Our resources, mental and physical, are like fuel in a car. During a normal
day, we consume our fuel at a constant level (like being in ‘cruise mode’ on
the highway). But if we have to go faster or if we have to work harder, then
just like a car, we will consume our fuel more quickly. The result is obvious:
No fuel, no go! We will talk about how to ‘refuel’ shortly.
Signs of Fatigue Fatigue effects Effects of stress Managing stress

 Trouble concentrating  Track your stressors
 Feeling of tiredness  Vision and Memory  Apathy  Develop healthy
 Drop of performance  Decision making  Muscle tension responses
 Accumulates with  Poor Communication  Skin irritation  Establish Boundaries

time  Muscular Strength  Stomach problems  Take time to recharge
 Anger  Learn how to relax
 Anxiety  Talk to your supervisor
 Headaches  Get some support
World Time Zone:

A time zone is a region of the globe that observes a uniform standard time
for legal, commercial, and social purposes. Time zones tend to follow the
boundaries of countries and their subdivisions because it is convenient for
area in close commercials or other communication to keep the same time.
17-04-2022 6
World Time
Airlines timetables are based on the 24-hour clock. In the 24- hour clock
system, times are expressed from 0001 to 2400hrs.
Examples:
AM/ PM 24 – Hour Clock
12:00 am 0000
12:00 pm 1200
24 HOUR CLOCK

is done to avoid any confusion that may arise when the terms AM (Anti –
Meridian) and PM (Post Meridian) are used.
The 24 – hour clock counts continuously from 1 minute past mid – night –
0001 hours – until 1 minute to mid – night - 2359.

Mishandled Baggage (PIR)
In case of a mishandled baggage, we raise a PIR. PIR is a legal

document, which is filled in a form to raise an official case of damaged,
missing, pilfered or left behind checked in bags. In simple words, a PIR
is filled when a customer claims that his registered baggage is missing
on arrival. This report should be filled in detail and clearly so the case
can be followed up by any staff on duty. Staff should write his name and
IGA Code on the report very clearly for seamless follow ups by the
following shifts.
PIR has following categories:
1. Delayed Bag (AHL – Advise If Hold) - non-arrival of customer’s check-

in/ registered baggage.
2. Damaged baggage (DPR) - damage to check-in/ registered baggage.
3. Pilfered baggage (DPR) - items missing from check-in/ registered
baggage.
4. On Hand Baggage (OHD) - bag found unclaimed on arrival.
Note: We do not raise any PIR for any loss or damage to customer’s
hand/carry-on baggage, as they are the sole responsibility of the
passenger and not the airline.
AHL – Advise if Hold
Show empathy/reassure and immediately check:
 Baggage claim tag on the boarding pass.
 Verify the name of the customer with name on the claim tag.
 Check on baggage belt for any left behind or exchange case.

bag has reached there
 Check with the ramp staff for any left behind baggage.
 For exchange cases, check with other airlines, in case the same
arrival belt is shared with them.
 Call the origin or Transit station to check is if the bag is still there

Inner Line Permit - Mizoram
Inner Line Permit (ILP) is an official travel document issued by the

concerned state government to allow inward travel of an Indian citizen
into a protected area for a limited period. It is obligatory for Indian
citizens from outside those states to obtain a permit for entering into
the protected state
The document is an effort by the government to regulate movement to

certain areas located near the international border of India. Despite the
fact that the ILP was originally created by the British to safeguard their
commercial interests, it continues to be used in India, officially to
protect indigenous communities, cultures in northeastern India. There
are different kinds of ILP's, one for tourists and others for people who
intend to stay for long-term periods, often for employment purposes.
ILP's valid for tourism purposes are granted as a matter of routine
17-04-2022 164
Which states require ILP?
The three states that require Indian citizens to obtain an Inner Line
Permit are Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram. Apart from
these, many other regions within some other states also require Indian
Citizens to have a permit before they enter.
Note: we will currently focus on Aizawl, where we will begin to fly
starting 29th Feb’20
How do I get ILP?

Inner line Permits are issued by the Secretary (Political), Government of
Arunachal Pradesh, respective Deputy Commissioner and Additional
Deputy Commissioner of the Districts. These can also be obtained from
Resident Commissioner's office / Deputy Resident Commissioner &
Liaison Offices
Entry Formalities for Domestic Tourists:
Inner Line Pass is required for entry into Mizoram and can be obtained
from Liaison Officer, Government of Mizoram from the following cities-
Kolkata, Silchar, Shillong, Guwahati and New Delhi. Government
employees travelling for official purposes are exempted from obtaining
ILP but are required to carry a photo identification card with them at all
times. Tourists arriving by air can obtain passes from the Security
Officer on arrival at Lengpui Airport, Aizawl
Documents required for ILP

Latest Updates
6E Double Seats Airport Process
 Customers should ideally be reporting at the airport with a web

check-in boarding pass after completing online Health Declaration
(HLOK)
 The web check-in flow has been designed in such a way that,
customer will only be able to generate one boarding pass for
himself/herself, with two seat numbers printed on the boarding
pass.
The EXST SSR shall also be printed on the boarding pass.
 After retrieving the PNR in GoNow, staff must ensure to select only
the first customer.
 Staff must remember to de-select the second customer if it is
already pre-selected. In other words, the customer with
‘EXTRASEAT’ as middle name must never be selected for further
processing.
 The second customer (with DBST SSR) shall always remain a no
show in the system.
Staff must proceed with remaining process of adding check-in bags
17-04-2022 170
Important:
 There are chances where staff may assign the seat to somebody
else, thinking the customer is a no show. Hence it must be ensured
that the seat of the second customer is never assigned to any other
customer. It must also be ensured that staff neither divides out the
PNR, nor cancels the second customer’s booking to accept a Go
Show or process refund
 Currently only the web check-in boarding pass has the capability to
print both the seat numbers. In case the boarding pass is printed
through KIOSK or at counters, staff must mention the second seat
number manually on the boarding pass. EXST SSR printed on the
boarding pass shall help the staff to identify customers who have
opted for an extra seat.
 In case a customer has opted seats on the emergency exit row,
airports must verify that the customer meets the eligibility criteria
of emergency exit seats laid down in CHM 7, Issue 01, Rev 00,
Section 4.0.
 In case the customer does not meet the eligibility criteria, airport
shall change the seat after politely explaining the reason
Extra seat for purpose of stowing personal items

 In case the extra seat is purchased to stow personal items, like cabin
bag, funeral urn, artifacts, non-bulky musical instrument, diplomatic
mail, etc., it must be ensured that these items are stowed on
window seat and the customer occupies the middle seat next to it.
 These items may be allowed to stowed on window or aisle seat
depending on the size and nature of such item, provided it does not
impede or obstruct the evacuation in case of an emergency and
does not pose a health and safety risk to anyone on the flight (e.g.
injury to any customer or crew).
 Such items must never be stowed on emergency exit seats or floor
level exits.
 Such items must be secured using seat belts with or without
extension seat belt as applicable and must be safe for the fellow
customer on adjacent seat.
 The weight of such item must not exceed 75 kgs.
17-04-2022 171
Manifest
 The seat assignment manifest shall reflect both the names, however
the status of both the customers shall be different.
 The customer status with EXST SSR shall reflect as FF, which means
s/he is checked-in and boarded.
 The customer status with DBST SSR shall be blank, which means
customer is a no show, however with a seat assignment.
 This shall work as an identifier for the cabin crew and she shall
ensure that nobody else is allowed to occupy that seat.
