Travel


Today Air Travel is affordable by everyone. This has happened due to mushrooming of aviation companies and stiff competition. One can book ticket in advance so as to get the lowest fare. Some airlines give tickets at as low as Re.1.00. Air Ticket booking can be done over the internet or even with mobile phones. However the airlines charge tax and fuel surcharge, but no one knows how much is paid to the Govt. Some people believe that this is the catch and they say that the amount charged like this is towards the operating cost and not the actual tax. Whatever it may be the increase in competition has enabled the consumer to get the best discount in airfare. It is also a fact that the customer service is directly proportional to the fare fee. Higher the air fare, better the service. So before taking a flight booking, consult with your friends about the punctuality and other services the airline operators provide. On the employment front increase in air traffic has created a huge demand for commercial pilots and air hostesses.

Even though Air Travel has become cheaper, Rail travel is considered to be more enjoyable and pleasent as it gives an opportunity to interact with co passengers during the journey. Railway ticket booking can also be done in advance as early as 45 days before the journey and online railway reservation makes arrangement to deliver the ticket at the door step. There are two types like iticket and eticket. In tamil nadu bus operators like KPN also have made online bus ticket booking for KPN travels to make the travelers comfortable.
