The fines were announced as part of a new draft on penalties for infractions related to the aviation sector, which the Ministry of Transport has submitted to the Government.
The Ministry of Justice, meanwhile, proposed that first-time offenders receive lighter penalties.
However, the Ministry of Transport said that all passengers are reminded not to use electronic appliances aboard aircraft to ensure safety.
Thus, anyone caught violating regulations should be strictly punished, the ministry said.
