Airlines offer flash sales anticipating increasing travel demand
NEW DELHI: Major airlines have started offering discounts and flash sales to boost air traffic that had nosedived during April and May when India was reeling under a severe second Covid-19 wave. Now that infections are coming down and more people are getting vaccinated, the industry expects travellers to flock to airports.
On Thursday, Vistara announced a 48-hour sale of its flights for travel between August 1 and October 12. The airline is offering a one-way ticket for as low as Rs 1,099. “As the situation begins to gradually improve and demand starts to return, we are happy to invite travellers to fly the airline,” said Vinod Kannan, Chief Commercial Officer, Vistara.
