Air travel likely to become better and cheaper

NEW DELHI: Domestic aviation is set to witness a price war, where passengers will benefit from competitive pricing in the coming months. While Air India, under the new regime, has already started the trend, two formidable players including Akasa Air and Jet Airways are scheduled to take off in the next few months offering more options.

Air India has already kicked off an enhanced meal service for travellers after becoming a part of the Tata Group. It has also set up an executive helpdesk for better facilities for customers including government stakeholders, senior business executives and others. Sources said more initiatives are in the pipeline for a better flying experience.
