World Cup 2023: We are only 77 days away from the biggest battle of cricket. World Cup 2023 is less than 3 months away and the hype around it is real. And the match that the two nations are desperate for is to happen in the clash between India and Pakistan.
The epic clash of India vs Pakistan match is scheduled to be on October 15 in Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. And you can already see the effect it has on the tourism sector of the city.
We saw a surge in the prices of hotels and private rooms last month. And now the airfares prices are also increasing rapidly. According to EaseMyTrip CEO, Nishant Pitti stated that ever since the announcement was made, there has been a 5X increase in hotel prices.
Airfare Increase Rapidly
Nishant further stated that it is not only hotel prices that are soaring but the flights cost are increasing as well. In estimation, the airfares prices are six times more expensive as compared to usual prices.
Especially the Delhi-Ahmedabad and Mumbai-Ahmedabad where you can see the minimum flight costs around Rs.15,000 and the maximum up to Rs. 22,000. Even if you book the flights three months in advance the cost will be the same.
“The demand for flight tickets and searches on our website reached an all-time high. The majority of people keen to attend the match have already started booking the tickets in advance.” Nishant stated.
World Cup 2023: Price May Increase Even More
According to Aloke Bajpai, CEO of Ixigo, the price of a flight to Ahmedabad has increased 100% as compared to last year. And there is a possibility that the price may increase even further as we get close to the venue.
It is predicted that we will see the peak prices close to September where they might even increase 10x more than the normal price.
