SpiceJet offers two new discount fare schemes

New Delhi: Budegt carrier SpiceJet Saturday launched two new discount fare slabs, with one way fare starting as low as Rs.599 (including fuel surcharge, but excluding statutory taxes) and other at Rs.1,999 (all-inclusive).

"SpiceJet has been one of the main drivers of demand stimulation and market growth this year, as it adopted a philosophy that flying empty seats is a waste. This demand stimulation has been a win-win, with airlines earning more revenues, with travellers getting fantastic deals, and with the travel industry and economy at large getting a boost," said Sanjiv Kapoor, chief operating officer, SpiceJet.

"It has been estimated that for every rupee spent on air travel, twelve rupees worth of economic activity is generated, due to the "economic multiplier effect."

According to the airline, tickets for both offers can be booked between Sep 6 2014 to Sep 10 2014 for travel between the periods Jan 16 2015 - Oct 24 2015 for the Rs.599 sale and Oct 7 2014 to Jan 15 2015 for Rs.1,999 sale.
