Flying to Jaipur? Shell out more from Delhi

Jaipur: If you are flying down to Jaipur from the national capital, be ready to shell out more than your counterparts coming from other metros.
Consider these fares: A trip to the city from Delhi will cost a minimum of Rs 3,500 booked a day or week in advance as against the starting fare of Rs 3,200 and Rs 3,300 for long haul destinations (distances above 750 kms) from Mumbai and Kolkata, respectively. Distance between Jaipur and Delhi is about 265 kms, while it is 1200 kms to Mumbai and 1462 kms to Kolkata. At times, fares of return tickets on long haul routes originating from Ahmedabad and Kolkata to the city are almost equal to the one way route from Jaipur to Delhi. Also, the fare to Lucknow from New Delhi, which has a distance of 497 kms, starts from Rs 1,900 only.
