Trains ‘housefull’ for festive season, airfares to skyrocket

Raipur:If you are planning to go out of city this Diwali, now is the right time to book your ticket, as trains are already full and airfares are likely to skyrocket .
While seats for majority of the low-cost rail links connecting major cities like Delhi and Mumbai are already booked in III and II tier AC compartments for Nov 1 and 2, airfares are still to rise, as flight booking is expected to shoot up by the end of the month.


According to airlines officials, there would be an escalation of 30%-40% in fares this festive season and last minute bookings could cost even triple of the fares now.
Seats for major trains connecting Raipur to Delhi and Mumbai, like Gondwana Express, Chhattisgarh Express, Gitanjali Express, SHM LTT Express, HWH-Mumbai Express and BBS-LTT Sup Express, are waitlisted. However, berths in trains like Rajdhani are available, which are comparatively expensive.
