Airport Formalities, A Cause Of Stress among Indian Travelers

The skyscanner survey also highlighted that the third most stressful aspects for Indians was the search for cheap flights. With so many tactical packages offered by both Indian and International airlines at different times, getting the best prices for flights is clearly time- consuming process for many. The recent pilot strikes and flight cancellations and delays added extra stress on travelers, where they had to wait for more time in the airport.

The analysis of over 3,100 Indian respondents revealed that finances and finding accommodation were the least stressful factors for Indians planning their travel.

Kavitha Gnanamurthy, Skyscanner’s Market Development Manager for India said “Although airports are working towards reducing terminal congestion, Indian travelers said that passing through them was most stressful. She added that the hunt for the cheapest flights is also a big stress factor and can be very time consuming considering the number of flight and airline option. Skyscanner has seen a tremendous increase in the number of users over the last five years, with more and more people wanting a quick and simple way of finding the cheapest fights.”
