Ahead of the anticipated World Cup final, set to take place on Sunday (November 19) between India and Australia, the city of Ahmedabad is witnessing a substantial increase in the number of people eager to witness the cricketing extravaganza. This surge in demand has not only led to a hike in air ticket prices, reaching up to Rs 40,000, but airlines have also expanded their flight services to meet the growing demand.
In response to the skyrocketing demand for flights, airline companies have increased both the frequency and the fares of flights. The final match is expected to draw a large crowd, contributing to the escalating demand for air travel.
With the Cricket World Cup final coinciding with the festive celebrations, airlines are operating additional flights. Both IndiGo and Vistara are now offering more flights from cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Bengaluru to Ahmedabad, as per ABP Asmita’s report.
