Flight Firms gone mad 💢

Why they keep price so high even when 90% seats are vacant...

I simply couldn't understand.

They are against unit economics or what...

Case 1, Price of Ticket 10k if 90% seats available

Case 2, Price is 11k if 10% seats available

Chal kya rha h ?

Flight seat demand outweighing supply and a bit of price gouging? They know the seats will fill up 95% before the actual date so why drop the prices?

No... Flight is going empty.

Can check tomorrow flight status on mmt.

They are just looting people and cci, dgca is silent.

Hope tata rules this space and indigo, spicejet etc duopoly stops on few routes

I guess it's all due to jet and go air going kaput. Supply demand game. I used to call a travel agent who would get me a flight for 5k for blr- jaipur for the very next day on Go air. And when I looked at mmt, only indigo used to be option with 10k+ fare.

My CCs saved me enough but hard for commoner to fly on exorbitant prices
