Passengers to India Can Soon Buy Tickets on A380 Flights

India bound foreign travellers who miss the ‘massive’ appeal of the world’s largest passenger airplane, the Airbus A380, after grabbing their flights tickets to the country would soon be able to realise their fantasy! The Indian government, that was hitherto not willing to allow foreign operators to bring in ultra long-haul aircraft into the country, has shown signs of flexibility.

If reports doing the rounds in Indian media circles are to be believed then the authorities in the country may very well agree to the operations of carriers who wish to offer flights tickets on the Airbus A380 to India.

Keeping in mind the interests of domestic carriers, India had previously restricted international airlines from flying these big planes into the country.

Germany’s Deutsche Lufthansa AG and Dubai-based Emirates are the evident beneficiaries as both have been waiting for the nod from the concerned authorities to fly A380s to India, for some time now. Lufthansa and Emirates already operate multiple flights services to India, offering air tickets for several major cities in the nation.

The news has brought cheer to aviation industry with experts hoping the move will help airlines push up their profits as cost per seat plummets down. More number of seats in a single plane on India bound flights will mean more savings on fuel costs.

Whether the carriers pass on the benefits to the flyers in the form of cheap air tickets on flights to the destination remains to be seen. However, increased number of seats on flights may also result in lesser frequency of services, restricting the flexibility of flyers looking for cheap air tickets.

Kerala Travel Mart 2012 Turns Out Be A Huge Success

With a greater than ever participation of over 2,000 delegates from across 48 countries, Kerala Travel Mart (KTM) 2012 ended on a high note on September 30, 2012 after kicking off on September 27 in Kochi.

One of the major tourism events in India, KTM brings together businesses and innovative entrepreneurs. It also promotes Kerala, the southern state of India, as a major tourist destination among foreign travellers buying cheap flights tickets to the ancient country.

This year’s edition of the event also took up the issue of waste management, something considered necessary for the projection of this province of South India as a clean destination among tourists taking flights tickets to the state. Kovalam, Varkala, Alappuzha, Kumarakom, Munnar, Fort Kochi, Marine Drive, Thekkady and Wayanad are the holiday hot spots that will be beautified under the cleanliness drive.

KTM 2012 allowed foreign vacationers who took flights tickets to India to browse through 108 Tables, 296 modules and 12 Houseboat parking bays. They could check out the mural paintings and handicrafts from bamboo in a striking stall put up by the Grand Shopping Festival, a popular attraction. The manufacturing process of these articles was also showcased. A good number of tourists who grabbed cheap flights tickets to participate in the fiesta were left enamoured by this exclusive collection that displayed the heritage of this magnificent region.

The event is held once in every two years in September and has been a highly successful initiative of the authorities.
