We all witnessed the record-high airfares and how they hit all the travellers during the peak travel season in May, this year. Now, in order to offset the customary downturn in demand witnessed during July and August, Indian airlines are coming up with attractive offers. From Vistara, IndiGo, and Akasa Air, check out how these airlines came up with the most attractive offers to attract passengers.
Indian Airlines Launch Enticing Offers
After witnessing record-high airfares in May, July-August seems to be the month of offer showers by Indian airlines. From Vistara, IndiGo, and Akasa Air, all the airlines are here with their best offers, like discounts, cashbacks, and more.
These reduced prices are designed to draw passengers during the customarily slower months in an effort to increase ticket sales. Airlines want to increase passenger traffic and boost off-peak travel demand by offering alluring deals.
Compared to April and May, when demand peaked during the summer vacation season and supply became constrained, airfares saw a considerable drop in July. The off-season for travel is thought to be between July and August.
On July 31, there was a notable drop in travellers, with a total of 372,050 passengers being registered. This represented a decrease of about 14% from the record-breaking total of nearly 432,000 passengers observed in May, which exceeded pre-Covid levels. (As per The Financial Express)
