New Delhi: Close on the heels of the budget carriers rolling out low fares, government-owned Air India has also launched a limited period “super sale” scheme, offering customers all-inclusive tickets starting as low as Rs 1,499 on its domestic network.

Under Air India’s super sale offer, flyers can book tickets at attractive fares starting from Rs 1,499 (all inclusive) on the airline’s domestic network, it said. The July-September and January-March quarters are considered lean seasons as against the remaining two quarters in terms of travel demand. Earlier this week, three no-frills airlines - SpiceJet, IndiGo and AirAsia India - had announced low airfares for their flights under similar schemes. While SpiceJet offered one-way fares starting Rs 511, IndiGo came out with a Rs 800 fare offer. AirAsia India, which is completing two years of its operations, had too lowered its ticket prices by half on several routes.
