In a not very intelligent power trip, the DGCA has notified that commercial pilots will now have to serve up to one-year notice period to be able to switch jobs or leave their wings. Like, really?
Yesterday, the airlines became empowered again to charge as they wished for excess baggage. This means you may have to pay a lot more the next time you’re moving homes on a plane. Or just carrying those extra gifts for friends and family. Here is the lowdown…
Indigo is offering a nice INR 1,111 onwards sale with a 11% cashback bringing the price down to INR 999 or so. Here are all the details for this sweet promotion.
Indigo is exploring the potential to launch low-cost long-haul flights, stepping up from their regional model of flying. And they’ve made a big bet in this regard. They want to buy the juicy chunks of Air India, the international operation and the profitable low-cost subsidiary called Air India Express.
Indigo is perhaps getting ready for the launch of a frequent flyer program for their flyers. This is not confirmed yet, but there is a great reason why now is a good time.
Indigo, the biggest Indian Airline, has just signed a deal with ATR to induct 50 ATR planes into their fleet. This signals that Indigo is willing to flex its muscle in the interiors of the country after putting massive frequencies on the big airports!
4 carriers are offering a sale across Indian destinations. Hop on and check out if you want to book a ticket or few. You could still be single and buy those tickets for one. Travel Period extends all the way to September 2017.
Indigo has launched a new promotion where they are offering vouchers worth INR 899 for just INR 99, as long as you book directly with them. This is a sweet deal if you are a regular Indigo flyer.
Indigo and SpiceJet are running some very nice sales for the next few months travel. Tickets are darn cheap and good enough to make me write about the deals. Have a look inside and see if something works for you! Act Fast!
There is a new wave of artists who are going about performing inside airports and airplanes. They call it #terminaljam. I call it public nuisance, to impose their art on those who cannot walk away from it.
What do you think?
Indigo has been at the forefront of monetising everything, including 500 grams excess baggage on hand which they’d not let inside the cabin. However, they’ve now worked out a new model on how to charge change/cancellation charges, which looks pretty reasonable to me. The move is towards rewarding early changes and cancellation by charging them lesser fees, and to penalise those who change/cancel at the last minute by charging them a higher fees. This is applicable for bookings made on or after April 1, 2015. For bookings made before April 1, 2015, the old rates continue to be charged, which is INR 1500 per change/cancellation on domestic bookings and INR 2000 per change/cancellation on international bookings. Personally, I don’t fly…
