43% of Low Cost Tavelers, Buy Tickets Online

The Centre For Asia Pacific Aviation (CAPA) has released results after a recent survey was conducted finding new trends in passenger behaviour following India’s Low Cost Carrier revolution and the country’s emerging economy.

The survey found India’s travelling population was increasingly using LCC as their preferred means of transport, price dependent, and a significant number of those purchasing tickets were using the internet to do so.

43 per cent of the 2000 LCC passengers surveyed throughout airports in India said they bought their tickets over the internet, while 48 per cent said they used a credit card to purchase their tickets.

Figures relating to full service carriers in India were significantly lower, with just 21 per cent buying tickets over the internet, and 31 per cent using a credit card for the purchase. 61 per cent was found to have used a travel agent to buy air tickets.
