India is a unique country with a diverse array of natura,historic, and cultural wonders. Across the length and breadth of the country there are innumerable sights and experiences that are sure to thrill the intrepid traveller.Travelling across India has always been cost effective with the Indian Railways being the lifeline connecting the remotest parts of the country.

 The Indian Railways cover a route of over 67,000 kilometres connecting the northern, southern, eastern, and western extremities of the country. Though train travel was convenient, with the modernization and development of the country the need was felt for faster transport options. The Indian aviation industry started as early as the 1930’s, however it was not till the opening up of the Indian skies to the private sector that flying in India became a viable option for travelling within the country. With the emergence of more and more players prices have become competitive. Today if you are thinking of say Bangalore to Mumbai flights,there are not only plenty of options but you are likely to get the best deals on Bangalore to Mumbai flight fares. The low cost carriers have really redefined the Indian aviation market and made flying affordable.

Here is a look at some of the major low cost carriers that operate in India and fly millions of passengers across the country.

Jetlite

Jetlite, a subsidiary low cost airline of Jet Airways is a leading player in the low cost flying segment.. The airline has its headquarters in the city of Mumbai, the commercial capital of India. Jetlite connects over twenty two destinations across the different regions of India. The airline provides a cost effective no frills service without compromising on aspect like quality of flight, punctuality, etc.. The standards of service it offers is the same as its parent company Jet Airways and is one of the preferred low cost carriers by travellers to fly across the cities and towns of India.

Indigo

One of the leading airline operators in India is Indigo with a forty percent share in the Indian aviation market. It offers economical fare combined with quality service. The Indigo airlines which is headquartered in Gurugram, which is very near to the national capital of Delhi has been in operation for over twelve years now. Indigo flies to over fifty destinations across India. Indigo also flies to a couple of international destinations as well.Indigo has won several accolades and awards for the high standards that it has been maintaining in its operations.

GoAir

GoAir has been operating in India for over thirteen years. The airlines which operates approximately two hundred and thirty flights daily and about one thousand six hundred flights every week connects about twenty three destinations across India. Some of the important destinations that GoAir connects are Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Chandigarh, Goa, Jaipur, Guwahati, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Port Blair among others. GoAir with its fleet of Airbuses strives to provide the best service and safety standards at the lowest of prices. GoAir also offers all inclusive vacation packages to many destinations in India.

Spicejet

Spicejet is another prominent spending carriers that works in India and associates the towns and urban areas of India, making it less demanding for the general population to movement at a moderate cost. This is of tremendous convenience for all types of travelers, business, tourist, national, and international. Spicejet is also headquartered in Gurugram which is very the Indian Capital city of Delhi. The Spicejet fleet which consists of Boeing and Bombardier-Q 400s offers a low cost but efficient and safe flying experience to its passengers.Spicejet also partners with hotels and resorts to offer vacation packages to select and popular locations across India.

Udan

The Low cost carriers are doing a great job by connecting the different corners of India and providing people air transport at affordable prices. In order to further improve connectivity and with the aim of connecting places as yet not connected, the Government of India has launched an initiative called Udan. Udan is poised to connect more than 400 smaller towns of India and bring them on the aviation map. This ambitious project envisaged by the Government of India pegs the fares at an alltime low.

The result of the growth of low cost airlines which offer fares that are marginally higher than train fares is that more and more people are traveling by air. This of course does not undermine the railway network of the country which is the largest in the world and the world’s single largest employer. It connects the furthermost points of the country. It still is the preferred mode of transport for millions of people across India. But when it comes to convenience and saving of time, the budget airlines with their cost effective service are the ones to fall back on. With the demand for the low cost airlines increasing day by day, the economics are going to improve further for these airlines which hopefully will translate into better prices and better deals for the flyer.
