Domestic Flight Rates 2024

Aviation industry is a duopoly of Tatas and Indigo. Prices will keep increasing. It’s not going back to older rates.

We need a ryan air in this country.

Only spicejet is there which sucks they will delay flight for atleast 3-4 time many time they will cancel it when u reach the airport, hence forced to use indigo or ai

Whatever happened to akasa and its cheap rates? Cant find it on most routes. Only trick is optimise miles using the best cards and do the whole shenanigan.

Yeah, those new airports everywhere are also taxing a bomb under airport charges. Going to airport is pocket in hole experience these days.

Flying out of country is cheaper now

Are airlines not concerned that due to steep rise, certain pockets of consumers will be priced out? Or have they factored in those priced out consumers and realised that they will make more profits from the reduced customer base paying higher price than large customer base paying lower prices?

The prices seem alright to me for the routes I fly. This includes a mix <1 hr to >2 hr flights. It is unrealistic to expect a sub 2k flight for any flight to Northern/Eastern sectors ft bangalore given that the fuel prices are always on the higher side, and are expected to go up again.

Even for budget routes gone are the days of sub 2k domestic flights 🥲

What's the reason? Money
