SpiceJet has been one of the most aggressive carriers in offering discount schemes.
SpiceJet started the fare war in January with up to 50 percent discounted fares which was followed up all other airlines including the national carrier Air India. Since then SpiceJet has launched over a dozen discount sales schemes.
According to a report in the Business Standard, SpiceJet is even willing to offer discounts to passengers who travel without check-in baggage as soon as the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) clears a proposal.
