Air passengers seeking to travel last minute for emergencies or other exigencies will soon find some relief with the national carrier on Saturday announcing a plan to offer last minute tickets at hefty discounts.
Air India spokesperson Dhananjay Kumar said on Saturday the discounts would normally exceed 40 per cent of the selling price.
“The last minute passengers who generally travel due to an emergency are often faced with very high ticket prices. Such high prices are a deterrent and the national carrier has therefore decided for the domestic sector that very last moment inventory, which means the available seats within three hours of departure would be sold at a hefty discount, normally exceeding forty percent of the selling price,” Kumar said on Saturday.
