In case of Booking Cancellation, If the Pilot is in the Mid way or at the Airport/Station, at that moment if the User Cancels the Ride due to any Unfavourable Circumstances, then based on app algorithm, the Pilot will get Cancellation charges in their wallet as per app algorithm.
If a Pilot Cancels a Booking then Penalty charges will be imposed automatically as per app algorithm.
