It must be noted that July was a tough month with the onset of monsoon and inclement weather conditions across the nation.
One of the most important aspects for travelers in our dynamic industry is the need to reach the destination on time. From various research studies, it is evident that achieving better customer satisfaction is not about only airfare and flight availability.
