New Delhi, Jul 11 (IBNS) In a move to achieve higher seat occupancy in the fiercely competitive market, national carrier Air India has decided to offer unsold seats on key metro routes at Rajdhani AC 11-tier rates as "last minute ticket fares."
According to reports, the offer will apply to the Delhi-Mumbai, Delhi-Chennai, Delhi-Bengaluru and DelhiKolkata sectors.
 
 At present, a Delhi-Mumbai Rajdhani AC II-tier ticket costs Rs 2,870 while the Delhi-Chennai ticket is priced at Rs 3,905, Delhi-Bengaluru at Rs 4,095 and Delhi-Kolkata at Rs 2,890.
 
Reports quoted AI officials as saying that the tickets can be booked from its website or the airport counter, adding all unsold tickets will be put on sale. 
 
He said the  four metros account for around 50 per cent of the combined domestic traffic.
 
Ashwani Lohani, chairman and managing director of AI, said the reason  behind the move was to provide “flying at low, affordable costs to last minute passengers”.
 
AI  had earlier launched a scheme under which those with unconfirmed Rajdhani  first AC tickets  could travel by air at no extra cost.
