Leisure travellers from Ahmedabad prefer holidaying in Goa, Udaipur, and Mount Abu. Bookings to these three tourist destinations have increased by 45% in August, when compared to bookings made by Amdawadis in July 2022, says a study.
To make travelling during the upcoming long-weekend and in the near-future more rewarding for travellers from Ahmedabad, Goibibo, India’s second largest OTA brand, is encouraging its travellers to make the most of their holiday by opting for the ‘Daily Steal Deals’ offering on its platform. With more than 2,000 steal worthy deals that are refreshed every day, travellers can avail benefits of up to 50% on hotels and flights through ‘Daily Steal Deals’. Ever since its launch earlier this year, this offering has attracted more than 700,000 users –making the brand a congregation point for value seeking travellers.
Expressing his views, Vipul Prakash, Chief Operating Officer at Goibibo, said, “As the festive season approaches and people gear up for the holiday season in the coming months, we are hoping for travel to increase significantly from Ahmedabad. With a variety of travel choices across flights, hotels, alternate accommodations, holidays, and much more available on our single platform – we are looking forward to Amdawadis exploring our new range of convenience-first offerings such as Book Now Pay Later, Price Lock feature for flights, goConfirmed ticket for trains and some price-based offerings, including Daily Steal Deals”.
Apart from these value-based offerings, young travellers from Ahmedabad can avail exclusive travel benefits and co-branded offers using Goibibo’s, Youth Program. Designed to cater to the travel needs of the young, the program currently comprises 2,30,000 youth as members. In the coming months, as travel accelerates further, Goibibo is aiming to double down on its efforts to conceptualize and introduce new and innovative youth-based offerings.
Besides, travellers can also opt for products that offer ease in booking and secures them against any last-minute travel disruptions. For instance, goConfirmed ticket that helps train passengers with 3X refund for an unconfirmed ticket before chart preparation has been seeing a month-on-month increase in volume. Records indicate that one in every four passengers with an unconfirmed ticket has opted for this feature in the past. Overall, through goConfirmed ticket and other convenience-based offerings, Goibibo continues to deliver on its promise of making travel hassle-free for its users.
