Tip to Get Low/Promotion Fare

To get low/promotion fare, you must always select "Restricted Low fares" on the Availability page. The system will return cheapest fare available at that time of reservation. Since some promotions are launched with limited number of seats and/or selected flight numbers, it is mandatory that you should study conditions of each promotion thoroughly. Although selecting "Restricted low fares", it is possible that you may get normal full/unrestricted fare instead because the flight you select does not meet the conditions of the promotion or the number of seats reserved for the promotion is fully booked.

In order to get the low/promotion fare, it is also recommended that you select the flight date as indicated in the terms and conditions of the promotion. Another tip is to make reservation as soon as possible in order to get your low/promotion fare seat confirmed.
