NEW DELHI: Airlines have slashed fares up to 8% in the run-up to Diwali, seeking to fill seats as they have not found enough takers for the tickets which they had priced higher in the hope of cashing in on the festive rush. Domestic carriers have announced multiple sales in the past few days, after having priced tickets higher anticipating stronger demand this year amid a supply crunch due to the bankruptcy of Go First and grounding of aircraft due to Pratt & Whitney engine issues.
