The Hunt for Fall & Winter Cheap India Flights Is On!

With bookings ramping up for the Canada to India booking season, the hunt for cheap India flights is on.  The number of calls for customers inquiring for flights to India is quickly increasing as people want to lock in their plans for India flights this Fall and Winter.  While we have not seen large seat sales yet, we believe that those will be coming soon based on the booking patterns.

The large number of incoming calls, but the lack of commitment, means that customers are unwilling to pay the fares that the airlines are currently asking for.  Once again, puts in a situation of who will blink first. Will the customer win out by waiting out the airlines, or is it correct that by keeping fares on the higher side, passengers will cave first and pay the higher amounts?  The amount of competition means that customers will most likely win out in the end, but only the airlines understand the number of seats that they need to sell to cover their costs.  Consumers need to pay attention now, as we expect the bookings to finalize in the next few weeks, as people want to secure their cheap flight to India sooner rather than later.

One significant change that has occurred in the last two weeks on the West Coast is that once again, Seattle is playing a big part in customers’ ability to secure cheap India flights.  The fact that Europe to America flights are much lighter than usually many carriers have decided that it is best to allow customer to fly from Seattle to Delhi for close $1000 rather then flying empty planes.  This is a huge benefit to those Canadians living in Vancouver, but there are some associated risks.  Driving over the border must be planned carefully as it is impossible to know exactly how long the wait will be.  The airlines are not concerned if you are unable to make your flight due to long waits travelling by road, so it is important that you account for this potential problem when flying from Seattle to Delhi.

We are seeing this trend from Toronto as well, as now the cheapest flight from Toronto to Delhi is available via Detroit.  You can fly on Delta Airlines via Detroit and Air France to Dehi for only $1249!  While having 2 stops isn’t always in your best interest, saving a significant amount of money usually is!

For those who want to fly directly from Toronto to Delhi, Air India is your best option with flights starting from $1750, while this is substantially higher than the Delta Airlines option, flying without stopping might be more valuable in your search for a cheap India flight from Toronto!

Passengers who are flying from Vancouver to India have a similar option to those flying out from Toronto if they are hunting for a cheap India flight.  Flying from Vancouver, via Seattle and Paris on Delta will be the best way to save money flying to New Delhi.  Prices start from only $1239!  If you want to fly on Air India’s direct flight, you will be looking at a cost of $1639, which is probably worth it to save a significant amount of time!

As we are in the primary booking season for customers buying cheap flights to India, we expect a rapid change in the market.  Prices may drop soon, as many customers are still refusing to pay higher prices. Keep a close eye on potential seat sales, as time is running out for the first fall departures.
