Lawmakers have expressed concerns over the impact of these soaring prices on citizens, calling for measures to ensure air travel remains accessible and affordable.
During a recent session, members of the House highlighted the need for collaboration with relevant stakeholders in the aviation sector to formulate strategies that curb these seasonal price hikes.
