New Indian carrier Air Costa today announced a partnership with travel portal TripFactory.Com to help travellers book business or holiday packages and hotels while booking their flights.
The Vijayawada-based airline currently operates 34 daily flights to nine cities of Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Coimbatore, Visakhapatnam, Tirupati and Vijayawada, with a fleet of four Embraer jets.
Through the partnership, travellers can book holiday packages with hotels of their choice while booking their flights with Air Costa in aircosta.Tripfactory.Com, an Air Costa release said.
