Hmm... Jet is sort of pricey.... i am looking for fairly reliable cheaper alternatives...
It is not that bad. If you book well in advance, then you get dirt-cheap fares on Jet (in various classes like V, H and so on... with the usual restrictions of no cancellation/modification etc.). Even otherwise, I find fares on Jet & other airlines comparable in the sector I travel the most, MAA-HYD. I think it is pricey only when you are booking a day or two in advance. Other options to try are Sahara & Kingfisher, if you are completely against Deccan :) I have heard Paramount is reasonably OK for S. Indian destinations. For fare comparisons, you should look at makemytrip.com or yatra.com. Lastly, try to avoid the "special" USD fares all airlines seem to have for non-Indian credit cards. Personally speaking, I find the little extra fare that Jet charges usually pays for itself in terms of hassle-free travelling. Binand
