Bangalore: Air Deccan on Saturday announced the doubling of its fare

Passengers can now book Air Deccan tickets for travel between October 30 and March 25, 2007 for Rs. 6 (plus taxes), up from Rs. 3.

Bookings will open on October 8 at 8 a.m.

G.R. Gopinath, managing director, Air Deccan, said, "a few months ago we celebrated our third anniversary by offering tickets at Rs. 3, and we are now giving another opportunity of affordable prices to our passengers by offering three lakh tickets at Rs. 6 encompassing a huge travel period.

This will encourage and enable many more people especially first-time fliers and rail passengers to take to the skies.

In the past, even during peak seasons and holidays we have boldly offered tickets for Re 1 and Rs. 3 as well as a fly for free offer; which received tremendous public response."
