DGCA Directs Airlines to Simplify Rapid Disembarkation Protocols for Enhanced Passenger Safety

Date:

Updated: [falahcoin_post_modified_date]

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issued a circular directing airline operators to implement procedures for swift passenger disembarkation during emergencies. This measure aims to prioritize safety while streamlining evacuation procedures. In the circular, the DGCA highlighted that emergency exits and slides should only be used for rapid disembarkation when deemed necessary by crew members. The guidelines aim to ensure a well-defined approach to passenger evacuation. The circular provided guidance for aircraft operators to lay down requirements and conduct rapid disembarkation procedures for flight crew members. Rapid disembarkation is a precautionary egress from the aircraft in situations assessed by crew members as deviating from normal conditions but not posing an immediate threat to passengers and crew members on board. Passengers and crew members are instructed to leave all their belongings on board unless instructed otherwise. Crew members’ instructions for rapid disembarkation will be different from those used for evacuation.
