High fares add to passengers' woes
5/27/2010 | Author : Naveeta Singh | WC :194 | India
As if the strike by the Air India (AI) employees was not enough, rival airlines have hiked their fares adding to passengers' woes.
While on Tuesday fares of only non-metro routes were increased, Wednesday saw a jump in fares of metro routes. In some cases, passengers had to grudgingly shell out more than triple the amount of normal fare.
Fares jumped up significantly on non-metro routes like Aurangabad, Varanasi, Rajkot and Ahmedabad. For instance, the cost of a Mumbai-Aurangabad airline went up to Rs6,016 instead of Rs3,500.

Airlines can generate good load factor if they start early morning and late evening flights to these cities. Many people who have to travel between these cities will be benefited." The views were echoed by Arindam Banerjee. He said, "I have to take a train or fly via Mumbai while going to Bangalore. Most of the time during festival season, I travel by private bus from Pune. It will be easier for me and several others if JetLite has finalized plans for low-cost flights to Pune and Bangalore."

Chopper Service Launched In Aurangabad !!
![]()
![]()
Chopper service was launched on December 14. (price per hour Rs.60,000)
Taking a cue from the recent bulk order for 150 Mercedes-Benz cars at one go, VVIP Aviation Pvt Ltd, a Delhi-based private aviation company, today announced launch of its multi-city chopper service in Aurangabad.
Briefing reporters here, the company chairman, Suresh Chavhanke, said for one month, the helicopter would be parked at the Chikalthana airport and would be shifted to the company franchisee, the Pune-based Manas Thakor's five-acre piece of land near the airport. Manas Thakor would look after the helicopter operations in the town.
The light helicopter does not require much of a space or a special facility for its landing, as it can land on a terrace of a building or on a lawn, he said.
The service can be extended to the foreign tourists willing to use the helicopter to save a bigger amount of time that they have to spend while travelling by road.
Many industrialists, business people and political big wigs need helicopter service. They have to bring in helicopters from Pune and Mumbai, whenever required, and pay more the flying hours, he added.
