Mumbai: All through Wednesday, one could book a cheap air ticket on quite a number of flights, including those departing during peak morning and evening hours. But such fares were hardly to be found on flights to certain tourist destinations, like Goa.
On the Mumbai-Goa route, flights that land around noon are the most preferred; on the return journey, early morning flights are the most in demand. But on Wednesday, there were no cheap fares for any of these. Attractive rates were to be found only on late-evening flights. The cheapest, all-inclusive fare (available till Wednesday evening) for a one-way Mumbai-Goa flight was around Rs 2,000 for a 6.35pm landing—not a preferred time if one needs to book into a hotel for a holiday. The next cheapest fare was Rs 3,500, for a 5pm landing.
