MakeMyTrip is now trying to take some of that post-booking worry away with its newly launched Price Drop Protection feature. Booking a flight can sometimes feel like a small gamble. You find a fare that works, book the ticket and then, almost inevitably, check the same flight again. And there it is, a lower price. The feature refunds travellers the difference if the fare for their booked flight drops after they book. For travellers who spend days checking fares before finally deciding, this could add a little more confidence to book early.
Price Drop Protection is designed around this very concern. Instead of waiting and hoping for a cheaper fare, travellers can book when the timing works for them and receive a refund if the fare falls later. The feature is available on both domestic and international flights, covering one-way and round-trip bookings. Travellers can opt for the protection while booking their flight. He added that the feature allows travellers to book when it suits them, while offering protection if the fare drops later. Price Drop Protection now joins MakeMyTrip’s existing flight assurance options, including Zero Cancellation and Free Date Change. the new option deals with something many flyers check obsessively after booking: the ticket price While those features address cancellations and changes to travel plans. For travellers who have ever booked a flight and immediately started checking the fare again, the new feature could make that familiar post-booking ritual a little less stressful.
It starts at ₹ 229 per person for domestic flights and ₹ 349 per person for international flights. Because of work, family commitments and other factors, which can lead to people waiting until closer to their travel date before confirming tickets, plans can change.
Indian travellers often search for the same flights several times before booking, according to MakeMyTrip.
