G.Kaur Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 It sounds great but isn't it quite expensive compared to tickets to Delhi? I bought mine to Delhi for 438 UK pounds. I could get a cheaper one with Turkish Airlines or Qatar Qirways. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SURYADEV Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 For amritsar flights because of the collapse of Mahan Air the prices have recently rocketed up. Even Turkemistan Airlines have boosted their prices. Plus the very high landing tax at Raja Sansi by the Indian Govt doesn't help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.Kaur Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) Oui. You can get a return ticket to Delhi/Amritsar or Chandigarh airport for 54 UK pounds so it's still cheaper to buy a ticket to Delhi and then to Amritsar or Chandigarh than a direct flight from UK to Amritsar. Anyone been to Chandigarh airport? Edited July 18, 2011 by G.Kaur 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
