Spicejet inaugural fares from Delhi and Mumbai to Dubai for Rs. 7777 + taxes

Spicejet seems to be obsessed with the number 7 these days. They recently offered a fare sale of Rs. 777 + taxes on domestic segments.

Now, Spicejet is launching its flights to Dubai on 25th June 2012 from Mumbai and Delhi and is offering introductory fares on spicejet.com of Rs. 7777/- + taxes from either cities to Dubai. To celebrate this launch, SpiceJet is offering introductory airfares starting from just Rs.4477 (plus government taxes) one way, on the 2 routes connecting Dubai with Delhi and Mumbai, which will be a limited seat offer on online bookings. SpiceJet will fly Boeing 737-800s on these sectors.

I would have loved to be on the inaugural flight, I’ve never been on a flight which has got the water cannon salute. But at this point of time other engagements are keeping me from booking this trip. However, when I priced a BOM-DXB-BOM ticket, it came to about INR 10,000 including taxes, much the same as Indigo’s launch pricing on these routes last year.
