AIR CARNIVAL: The Airline with a difference, an answer to discounted air fares.

AIR CARNIVAL: The Airline with a difference, an answer to discounted air fares.

India has always been the market for growers in every industry. The growing economy lays a platform to investors both Indian and international.

Being a developing nation India is always open to international options when the call for experiment comes. With majority of its population in the “human capital” tag, venturing out options is an old saying.

India has been through tough times since time immemorial but it has always made a mark in the world scenario and that is one of the reasons for its fastest growing resources.

The Indian aviation market has grown since ages; while some have made it big in the market others faded who could not withstand the test of time.

At a time when aviation players are going through turbulent times, Coimbatore-based CMC (Coimbatore Marine College) group is venturing into the aviation industry by launching a low-cost carrier (LCC) under the brand Air Carnival. The airline plans to focus on short haul services with its ATR72-500 aircraft. The 70-seater aircraft are more economical for short haul services and they are proven one in India.

The company serves with the tag time “Safety first! On time every time!”

Air Carnival is an Indian regional airline based at Coimbatore International Airport with a hub at Chennai International Airport. The airline was founded in 2013 as a charter airline but has since transitioned to scheduled operations within South India, which were launched in July 2016

In 2013, S. I. Nathan, founder and director of Coimbatore Marine College (CMC) Group, founded Air Carnival Charter Services as a charter airline based in Delhi. CMC Group later shifted the focus of Air Carnival to short-haul routes within South India. Coimbatore was selected as a base because it is the headquarters of CMC Group, the airport has many available facilities and Coimbatore is a growing city located closes the Tier 1 cities Bangalore and Chennai. The airline focuses on unserved and poorly served markets. 

Manish Kumar Singh serves as CEO and S. I. Nathan, who is also the director of CMC Group, is the founder and chairman.

Coimbatore-based Air Carnival has become the fourth regional airline of the country and will fly daily to and from three Tamil Nadu airports at Coimbatore, Chennai and Madurai.

Air Carnival will become the first regional airline offering fares inclusive of in-flight entertainment and food. The airline will compete with other southern region players such as TruJet and Air Pegasus which have three aircraft each and Air Costa with four planes. To start with, the airline will deploy one 72-seater aircraft (ATR 72-500) with four flights daily on the Coimbatore-Chennai-Madurai sector. After inducting two more 72-seater planes the airline will spread its wings to Tirupati, Hubli, Vishakhapatnam, Rajahmundry and Mangalore.

Air Carnival, which got its air permit on July 4, has decided to take on their competitors head on by introducing a promotional base fare of Re 1 on the first day of operations and an all-inclusive fare of Rs 999 for the first three months. The airline has also confirmed that it plans to model itself along the low-cost airlines in the country. Even after the initial three months, their tickets will be priced at a competitive rate. The airline, which currently has only one leased aircraft, plans to introduce flights from Chennai to Bangalore. The airline then plans to add flights to Thiruvananthapuram, Mangalore, Hubli and Mysore from both Chennai and Coimbatore, depending on market surveys.

The entry of Air Carnival is likely to heat up the competition. At present there are three operators flying seven flights a day from Coimbatore to Chennai. The 70-seater flight will fly to Chennai, Madurai and Bangalore on a daily basis.

Once the flight lands in Chennai from Coimbatore, it will make a round-trip to Madurai and Bangalore. The airline also plans to acquire its second and third aircraft after three to six months, based on operations and revenue coming in.

D Nandhakumar from the Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry stated that “Industrialists welcome the additional flight services, they should consider shuttle flights offering fixed price open tickets even if slightly more expensive, for frequent travelers," 

The airline plans to price its tickets parallel to low-cost airlines, but plans to experiment with the in-flight facilities like ways to serve hot fresh on board instead of the currently packaged food served on short flight segments and also mulling ways to make the food served on-board a part of the ticket package or free of cost.

Domestic operation at the fast-growing Tiruchi International Airport is expected to improve with Air Carnival expressing its interest to launch a service in the Chennai-Tiruchi– Chennai sector. The airline aims to cover all the airports in Tamil Nadu in the next 24 to 36 months.

Welcoming the additional flights from the Air Carnival, frequent travelers from Madurai to Chennai and Coimbatore said that it reflected that there was potential in this sector. On an average, the flight was 80 per cent occupied daily.

Of all the new airlines, Vistara is the only one not based in the south. AirAsia India, Pegasus, Fly Easy, Air Carnival, TurboMegha's TruJet, and Air Costa are all based in the south. This is because of the promise the region holds.

Among the five regions -- North, West, East, North East and South -- the southern region is the most lucrative market considering it has three metros, which is half the total number of metros in the country.

According to analysts Hyderabad and Bangalore are Greenfield and better planned airports, and this allows them to better support new airlines through improved infrastructure and sops. South has lucrative cities including Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Cochin and others. No other region is this attractive.

Though being a low fare airline Air Carnival takes into consideration passengers’ comfort. The airlines is planning to incorporate various facilities, the initiative starts with providing hot served food with will be included in the ticket free of cost.

This airlines’ major concern is to capture the market initially by launching itself as a regional airlines then spreading its wings to other sectors. This airline will prove to be a boon for frequent flyers especially from small cities.

Officials said tickets have already opened on its website and they have tied up with different travel agents and leading travel portals for availability of tickets.

There is always a market for each and every thing in life, as Air Carnival is launched as a low budget airline keeping in consideration the common man’s need as single frequent flyers there are advantages as well in travelling in a group.

It may be a dream for some to board a flight rather it may be unapproachable for the pocket-friendly people but thanks to humble initiative like Air Carnival who keeps in mind those pocket-friendly segments of population that will be a part of their profit making strategy in the near future.

Though Air Carnival have opened its website for tickets and have tied up with different agents for tickets which again may be confined to single frequent flyers for groups there is always a different option.

WHY TRAVEL IN A GROUP- A TRAVELOGUE

WHY TRAVEL IN A GROUP??

TRAVEL

What is TRAVEL or rather why do we need to travel? Did any of us really think of this question? Not really, we as individuals are so busy in our everyday life that we tend to or usually forget the basic meaning of most of the words that can really make our life. What basically travel is? Is  it just moving out of the house with our bag and baggage to the assigned destination through any mode of transport? If that is travel in our daily life we do go to office, to the market, to the grocery store as well, can these be termed as travel as well? THINK!!! We at present belong to an era where most of the things are materialized and we look at things from the third eye (mobile lens) rather than make good use of the eyes that we have.

People travel on a daily basis through the same route but remain ignorant of the things that pass them, rather they spend time on browsing the same thing on the internet– this is the irony of life today.  We eye for something that is not important and ignore those which we have with us.

It’s time that we open our eyes and relives the life that we have. Let us just not select destinations over the internet, reach there and come back with closed  eyes a but  let us enjoy the beauty of this beautiful world at any corner  at any place with an open mind and eye.

HAVE ANYONE EVER THOUGHT OF WHY “TRAVEL??”

Basically in today’s scenario we do not have time to think of why we do something, we do it to impress others or we do it because others are doing it. It has become a trend to live somebody else’s life rather than living our own.

Let us start a new journey today, let us analyze something different today. “Have you ever noticed any child going to school?” The child is curious to know about the things that he or she sees for the first time or on a daily basis, the child is loaded with questions and interprets things in his or her own way. The child not only travels but also does an in-depth analysis of the things around him. Let us be the child again the way we were and enjoy our destination.

Education refines our life and TRAVEL has always been a part of this educational process. Travel when a part of any education process exudes pleasure and happiness.

Let this beautiful world be a book with variant colors and let us read this book with an open mind. Life should not be confined to the four walls of a room nor should education be confined to books. It’s important to be knowledgeable than informative. Let us not remain informative regarding destination but be knowledgeable while we travel.

Travelling not only opens our eyes but also opens our mind. A person travelling will not need a book to be knowledgeable rather he will be a book in himself to be a storyteller. Why depend on someone else to know what the things are that are around us, let us learn something new each day, let us not be confined when we travel , let us EXPLORE.

EXPLORE LIFE WHILE WE TRAVEL

It is rightly said “Journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. When we travel we not only gain information or knowledge to be precise we live moments, we cherish these experiences throughout our life. 

Travel explore should not be confined to big destinations but we need to detail our eye in our daily destinations as well.

Make the life that we live worth living and explore it for a meaning.

BE A TRAVELLER RATHER A TOURIST

We all travel in our everyday life, we all visit destinations as well, but how many of us are travelers rather than tourists?? Now the query is “WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TRAVELLER AND A TOURIST”?? No one has ever thought of it, for every common man it’s basically two sides of the same coin. But technically it’s a traveler’s quest to explore that makes those places re-visit by tourists over ages. We need to feel the air of travel for any long lasting effect…... Their words are personified not only through lens but with closed eyes as well.

WHAT BASICALLY IS A GROUP

What groups basically are? What are they for? We as individuals are not meant to live the life of a recluse; we at every step of life are dependent on someone. Whenever we refer to groups we not only refer them to life but also in travel.  Group travelling has many advantages than travelling alone. Some people might prefer travelling all alone just to avoid the interference of others’ as he or she might be a silent traveler, but travelling in a group always gives you the sense of security.

WHY TRAVEL IN A GROUP

When the topic of travel comes individuals have different tastes, some like to travel alone while others prefer a group. In a group some are comfortable travelling with their family where experimenting is not so much on the cards. While there are some who likes to EXPLORE and NOT just TRAVEL. They experiment going out with friends, meet new people and exploring the life of the unknown.

There are few who like to travel all alone, be in own cocoon and be a silent spectator. Do much do they enjoy life travelling all alone being aloof remains a hard question to answer. For them its travel is their journey of life, it’s their companion, their soul mate.

But there are some questions that might trouble the group travelers, is travelling alone SAFE? Can there any discussion relating to this? There cannot be arguments but opinions regarding how safe travelling alone is.

Travelling alone has its own advantages and disadvantages but now let us focus WHY TRAVELLING IN A GROUP IS IMPORTANT.

In today’s hectic schedule travelling is a boon to distress oneself. A break away from life lets you discover the new way of living.

Travelling with a group with family of friends can be extremely rewarding, and it can save you lots of money. Travelling in a group not only adds glamour in your trip but also allows you to make new friends. Travelling in a group reduces expenses as all will be sharing the expenses of the trip. Group travelling not only allows getting discounted rates in hotels, restaurants but also gives you group discounted bookings from airlines or travel agents as well.

When we talk of group travel apart from providing discounts the biggest advantage is SAFETY. Ever thought of it? Yes many people prefer group bookings for safety purpose. When we travel alone in any new location we are bound to take care of our self. But when we are in a group we feel safe and protected. As the saying goes “many hands make work lighter” – whenever we are in a group are well equipped to encounter any trouble. Here we can cite the best example of the stories related to strength. When we stand in a group we get ideas of exploring new avenues any tackling with any situation.

UNITED WE STAND

We come alone and we die alone – then why do we need someone to share our life and responsibilities? Is it really possible to live the life of a recluse? This is one question that has had different opinions from different sects of people.

As the very old story of the old man and his five sons goes – “The old man was on his dying bed and had called upon all his sons and had asked them to break a bunch of sticks. None could break that bunch of stick individually but was only possible when they had worked together on it”. This simple story from life teaches us that we as individuals are not possible to live all alone. We can always face any problem when we are united rather than alone.

GROUP BOOKINGS

Destinations have never been a benchmark for choice. A small village in the remote of India can be as exciting as any trip for some to any International destination. As the saying goes “Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder”.

We have dealt with the advantages and disadvantages of travelling in a group; let us now see what GROUP BOOKINGS deals with. When we talk of group bookings we should start seeing its advantages from the root level. Proper care should be taken when we are planning any group with elders and kids.

FAREHAWKER for GROUP BOOKING

Whenever the name of GROUP BOOKINGS comes FAREHAWKER stands our being the pioneer for group bookings only. FareHawker has been in the market of group bookings since its inception. It not only provides discounts for group fares but also takes care of the group where only girls travel.  It has set a bench mark where group travel is concerned.

LASTLY, we all travel to different destinations; some prefer travelling to the same destination either alone or in a group; while some does not prefer the word TRAVEL because for them TRAVEL is confined to visit; they prefer to EXPLORE unknown destinations in a group especially to know new places and people. With positivity we end to pen here and start our new journey to explore; to make our life worth living with the moments that we make through the journey called TRAVEL, explore you wings to the horizon.....

Rules & Regulations for carrying an infant in flights.

Parenthood- the most beautiful stage in any couple’s life.

Carrying a child for the first time is always an experience to share. Excitement is without boundaries if Indian parents are travelling from USA to India for the first time with their newborn.

Parents travelling with babies should be aware of the rules and regulations for a hassle free and memorable journey.

Many couples are excited to travel with their newborn baby to India. It is a time to rejoice and a time to share your happiness with friends and family. The excitement is doubled if the baby is born in the U.S. However, many couples are inexperienced to travel with an infant.

Infant travel:

An infant is one who has not yet reached his/her second birthday. Infant tickets for normal fares will be charged at 10% of the basic normal adult fare however, the same may vary for special fares. For Domestic travel currently the infant base fare is INR 1000 (subject to change without notice). Applicable taxes, Airline Fuel Charges, and fees will be charged in addition to this fare. Infant discounts are sometimes not applicable for special discounted fares. If the infant has crossed his second birthday when the journey commences, then the ticket would have to be issued with a part infant and part child fare. No seat will be allotted for an infant traveling on an infant ticket. If a seat is required the infant should pay the child fare.

Please note: Infants below 7 days old are not permitted travel (both domestic and international). However, in an exigency, wherein life saving treatment is mandatory for the infant, the mother may be permitted to fly with the new born, provided the newborn is certified fit to fly, by the concerned pediatrician and is accompanied by at least a MBBS doctor.

Child travel:

A child is one who has reached his/her second birthday but not yet reached his/her twelfth birthday on the date of commencement of journey. Child tickets for domestic travel for normal fares are 50% of the basic normal adult fare and for international travel it is 75% of the basic normal adult fare. Child discounts are sometimes not applicable for special discounted fares.

 Young guests between 2 and 12 years of age (at the time of travel) will be considered as children. Guests up to 2 years will be considered as infants and need to be accompanied with an adult at all times throughout their journey. You may request a special meal for children at the time of booking or at least 12 hours prior to departure.

 A diaper-changing table in lavatories on all flights except those operated by ATR aircraft.

Bassinets:

Bassinet seats are available for infants weighing 11 Kgs (24.25 pounds) or less on our international flights operated by Airbus 330, Boeing 777-300ER and Boeing 737 aircraft. For more details, please refer to our seat maps. The bassinets are usually located behind galleys, lavatories, closets and partitions in Economy. There are 2 bassinets available on B-737 in front of seats 10BE. Requests for Bassinets can now be made at the time of booking.

Bassinets are available on select routes and are subject to availability. In case of non-availability of bassinets due to aircraft change, refund / reissue penalties will be waived for the guest holding confirmed bassinets prior to aircraft change.

Child Restraint Systems (CRS)

You are permitted to use a Child Restraint System (CRS) for infants inside the aircraft, provided an additional seat has been booked for the infant. If a seat has not been purchased, the infant will be secured to the adult's lap using an infant seat belt.

A Child Restraint System (Seat) is

Mandatory for an infant (under the age of two years) occupying a seat.

Optional for a child between 2 and 4 years of age, depending on the manufacturer's guidelines for the device's maximum weight capacity.

Jet Airways does not provide for child restraint system(s) and the same must be carried by the adult guest accompanying the infant.

Due to safety reasons, child restraint systems cannot be used for travel

On ATR aircraft

In Première, on aircraft with herringbone seat configuration

Child Restraint System (CRS) for use in the aircraft must have specifications or labels indicating that the device is approved by FAA and suitable for aircraft use.

Note: If an approved CRS with a worn out or illegible label is presented for use on an aircraft, then the accompanying adult must produce a letter from the manufacturer specifying that the presented CRS (indicated through model number, specific make or detailed description) is approved for use on an aircraft. The Owner's Manual which contains information that the CRS meets safety standards is also acceptable proof.

It is mandatory to purchase an additional seat for the infant or child using a Child Restraint System.

An adult must accompany the infant or child occupying the CRS.

The CRS cannot be placed on an exit row seat or on seats ahead of and behind the exit row.

The CRS should be secured to a regular passenger seat at all times or, if not in use, stowed as carry-on baggage.

When travelling with two children, both using CRS, the CRS will require to be installed on the window and middle seats and the accompanying adult will occupy the aisle seat.

The child or infant must be properly secured in the CRS with the harness fastened during taxi, take off, landing and whenever the 'Fasten Seatbelt' sign is switched on.

The CRS must be properly installed in the forward-facing aircraft seats according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Note:

•             Bassinet seats are available in Economy only.

•             Bassinet seats are limited and subject to availability.

•             In case of a change in aircraft, where the new aircraft has fewer bassinets, the seat previously blocked may not be available.

•             In case of a change in aircraft, where the new aircraft has more bassinets, guests will be appropriately re-accommodated.

•             Every infant must be accompanied by an adult.

Homemade baby food is best for travelling:

It is always advisable to carry homemade baby food for your baby. Make sure that you keep the food in an airtight container and is handy so that you will not have any problem feeding your baby.

Avoid carrying anything in a plastic bag, rather use zip lock bags to avoid spilling.

Make sure that you carry your child’s Birth Certificate along while travelling.

Inform the travel agent or the Airline personnel that you are carry a baby with you. If your child completes 24 months during travelling where you may have booked the tickets earlier, you are subject to pay the amount for your child’s travel (which again differs from domestic to international airlines).

Moreover there are rules and regulations laid down by respective airlines on their website, make sure you read them thoroughly while booking tickets for a hassle free flight.

Avoid taking the emergency seat while travelling with your child, though it will be taken care of by the flight attendants on board.

Make sure that your child is comfortable on board or else managing the child may not be an easy task.

International flights are always time consuming, so try to keep your baby engage in some activities so that they do not bother other passengers.

Carrying winters clothes (as flights temperatures may vary for your kid) is advisable.

Finally as parents it's your call to keep yourself well informed regarding the do's and don'ts while travelling to make it hassle free.
