A couple planned to travel from New Delhi to Dublin, Ireland than from Dublin, Ireland to Cincinnati, United States and then back to New Delhi. As they are retired couple they do not have time constraint and travel dates were more flexible w.r.t. a working professional but comfort and economy are the major criteria which plays the vital role in deciding their travel.
Air View Services suggested that they take a flight from New Delhi to Dublin, Ireland on 22 April 2017. Further from Dublin, Ireland to Cincinnati, United States on 15th July 2017 and then back to New Delhi India on 10 Oct 2017. While designing the itinerary Air View Services kept in mind three major factors namely comfort of the elderly during flights , elderly couple can spend most time with their kins and of course they save a considerable amount during travel.
As per Air View Services the best suitable itinerary is as under.
DATE DEP TIME FROM TO FLIGHT NO AIRLINE NAME
22APR 0245 DELHI DEL FRANKFURT LH761 LUFTHANSA
22APR 1000 FRANKFURT DUBLIN DUB LH978 LUFTHANSA
15JUL 1225 DUBLIN DUB Dulles/Wash LH8939 LUFTHANSA
15JUL 1705 Dulles/Wash CINCINNATI LH9066 LUFTHANSA
01OCT 1830 CINCINNATI Newark EWR UA4353 UNITED AIRLINES
01OCT 2200 Newark EWR DELHI DEL UA082 UNITED AIRLINES
The entire trip costed 3080 USD to the couple with considerable amount of relaxation during hoping flights as we all are aware how tiresome long flights can become when one is travelling in economy class.
The similar itinerary when compared with online travel portal, which claims to return five times the difference in fare as price guarantee to customer in thier e-wallet if the lower fares were found,was to cost 3196 USD. Air View Services proved economical by 116 USD which makes approx 4% of the entire cost to the couple.
Though the economy offered by Air View Services was only 4% in this case due to flexibility of travel dates, this could have been much more if one has to travel under non flexible schedule.
