Mumbai: Low-cost airline SpiceJet stepped up the fare war on Tuesday by
extending the special monsoon offer with a starting ticket price of Rs
1,999 ( all inclusive) to its pan-India operations. The offer is
applicable to all domestic destinations to which SpiceJet flies,
including Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai, a company official said.
The bookings under the extended offer can be made from June 17 to June 19 with a travel period validity starting from July 19 and lasting up to September 30, 2014, the company said.
The offer comes a day after newlylaunched AirAsia India announced Kochi as its third destination in the network at an all inclusive fare of Rs 500. AirAsia India, which entered the budget segment space with its first flight to Goa from Bangalore on June 12, is now all set to launch its flight services on the second route, Bangalore- Chennai- Bangalore from Thursday.
SpiceJet had last week announced the monsoon scheme from eight South Indian cities- Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kozhikode, Mysore and Visakhapatnam. This has now been extended nationwide. Before rolling out the monsoon offer, SpiceJet had come out with a promotional all- inclusive ticket offer starting from Rs 2,999 for a one- way journey on domestic routes primarily from Tier- II cities.
