Bangalore: With the lean season (August-October) around the corner, full service carrier Jet Airways and budget airline Air Deccan, which are leaders in their respective segments, have come out with attractive fares to push up their load factors on some sectors.
While Jet has relaunched its Superfare scheme by offering one lakh tickets at fares which are close to those of no-frills airlines, Air Deccan has lowered the prices of its air tickets to Rs 99, Rs 299 and Rs 500 on routes services by ATR aircraft. Other airlines may soon follow suit to save marketshares.
In June, SpiceJet Ltd had offered 24,000 seats at Rs 99, Rs 299 and Rs 499 for travel between July and September on some sectors - and these have been filled up.
Many airlines are also bracing themselves for the entry of a new budget airline, the InterGlobe Enterprises-owned IndiGo, on August 4.
