Another trip in the pipeline, and have to book tickets this week

Feel free to share your discount coupons (over DMs) 🫣 TIA

Whatever you do, don't book an Akasa or Vistara flight. Vistara has been cancelling a lot of flights daily and Akasa is just money hungry. They almost scammed me for 6k.

They are the only ones cheap 🥺

What did Akasa do? Never flown with them

So this is the weirdest thing that ever happened to me. Probably gonna make a post about it with details as well, all in all, I wanted to switch dates of my flight, so I selected the new date and flight, selected the type of ticket (flexi/saver they have 2 options) and came to summary of payment where they showed me the breakup of ticket and how much they discounted since I already had a ticket and everything, amounted to 5.4k still.

I decide that it's not worth it, so I press back and when I come back to the home page, I see they have updated my booking to the new date and that I have 5.8k payment due for that.

Called the support, they said they can't help since this is how the website works and they can't unmodify my booking since I have payment due :)

Had to cancel my entire trip to not pay that much due amount and they did not even refund me anything for the first flight I had booked.

Never flying Akasa.
