Mumbai to Patna is more expensive than Bangkok flight, fare reaches Rs 96,000
If you also want to go home on Diwali or Chhath, then this news might come in handy for you. In fact, during the festivals, most of the people who work in other cities go home. Due to the high demand, they are unable to get train tickets, so they think of returning home only by flight. But if you are also thinking of returning home by flight, then check the flight price once. Airfares for Dussehra and Diwali have already started skyrocketing.
Ticket prices on many domestic routes in the country have been increased from Rs 20,000 to Rs 96,000. Some airlines have announced some offers for the customers, but they are much less in proportion to the increase in airfares. In such a situation, if you are going to travel by air during the festive season, you will have to shell out more. Let us tell you what is the condition of flights going to Patna during the festive season.
Early bookings increased by 30 to 35 percent
This year Dussehra will be celebrated on October 12. The festival of Diwali falls between October 31 and November 2.
