To cash in on the holiday traffic, Air India has gone beyond selling tickets and has turned a travel consultant and operator. The company has signed agreements with star hotels in several tourist destinations in India and abroad, to offer comprehensive packages — including airport transfers and sight-seeing. According to a press release, the traveller also gets the benefit of lower room tariffs. The cash-strapped company is offering a lot of holiday packages — to 24 domestic and five foreign destinations, including Bhutan, Nepal, China, Singapore and Thailand. The Web site airindiaholidays.in offers multiple choices for the traveller. One can choose the type of hotel, number of days stay and class of air-travel.
