Digital travel platform Agoda has shared the most affordable flight routes booked by travellers from India in early August. The platform offers thousands of flight routes from India, with fares starting as low as INR 1,329 for the Mumbai to Goa route. This fare ranked 5th among 10 Asia Pacific markets for the lowest domestic rate.
Thailand and the Philippines, both having offered an INR 665 domestic flight, shared the top spot. Regionally, India ranked 9th with an INR 4,985 flight from Delhi to Kathmandu. However, Indians had the most affordable intercontinental flight, with Delhi to Dubai available for only INR 7,478.
The most affordable domestic flight booked in India took off from Mumbai and landed in Goa, costing no more than INR 1,329.
Agoda’s Country Director for India, Sri Lanka, and Maldives, Krishna Rathi, noted that these flight deals show that there are real bargains to be found if travellers are flexible with carrier, route, and timing. “Pricing of course changes with demand, and we seek to get the best prices available for wherever you want to fly. Domestic, regionally, or cross continents,” he said.
Agoda looked at the total fare per passenger, including taxes and surcharges, in ten markets across Asia Pacific. The fares are the cheapest fares from actual bookings made on Agoda between 1 and 14 August and for travel in September and October this year. Agoda has 130,000 flight routes available to book on its platform, having launched its flight booking service in 2019.
Agoda said it cannot guarantee that these are still available for future bookings.
