If you have to fly in the coming days, then check the prices of the plane tickets once, because these days the rates on the major airlines of the country have increased by 38 to 40 percent. These fares have increased on the routes where Vistara Airlines has now canceled its flights.
According to the data provided by the private airline ticket booking agency, the fares on the lines on which the Vistara airline has canceled its flights are rising rapidly. The average point fare on the Bengaluru-Udaipur route rose by about 38% to Rs 6,049 on April 2, which was Rs 4,368 on March 5. On April 2, flight prices on the Delhi-Srinagar route increased by about 30 percent compared to the rate on March 5. The steep increase in fares on the Bengaluru-Udaipur route is also due to the fact that there are only two daily flights (Vistara and IndiGo) between the two cities. Apart from this, increase in fares was also seen in Delhi-Indore, Delhi-Sringar, Mumbai-Kochi, Mumbai to Srinagar and Delhi to Mumbai.
In fact, this Vistara Airlines case came just before the start of summer vacation. In general, there is a shortage of flights during this period, due to which the tickets become more expensive. Not only that, currently 75 Indigo planes are unable to fly due to problems with the Pratt & Whitney engines installed in them. While in May last year itself, Go Air also stopped its flights due to financial problems. The number of SpiceJet flights has also decreased. Boeing and Airbus are also not delivering new planes to these companies as promised. Therefore there is already pressure on the airspace.
