The latest option is adjusting the prices' top limit depending on flight seasons; high and low.
There are also plans to regulate sub-class ticket pricing , a.k.a. price classification based on the type of service provided. This grouping can affect costs when passengers make reschedules or claim refunds.
"We are looking for a solution; which ones are legally possible," the minister said.
