Mumbai: Indian carriers are giving passengers attractive additional incentives on their own websites to wean them away from travel agents.
Jet Airways, India's second biggest airline by market share, is in talks with cab aggregator Uber for clubbing its services with flights. Under this, a customer buying a Jet Airways flight ticket can advance-book an Uber cab pickup and drop from and to the origin and destination airports.
The services will possibly involve incentives like getting luxury car services at base rates. The talks are still at an initial stage, said Belson Coutinho, vice president , marketing, ecommerce and innovations at Jet Airways.
Budget carrier SpiceJet is in talks with MyTaxiIndia for a similar service, a person in the know said. SpiceJet has discounts for students and senior citizens, specifically available only on its website.
