Sunny Summer Holidays: Unlock Exclusive Gains With Early Reservations

19 Feb 2024

As the New Year dawns in, we as individuals would get back to earnest work so that the months ahead sail smoothly.  It is only then we could think of a well deserved break during the summers.  

With young children in the family, the excitement of a family holiday doubles, as they too would be eagerly looking forward just as the parents would for a well deserved break to enjoy a summer break.

The trend is - summer time is advantage time as the stakeholders in the travel, tourism and hospitality industry would make attractive offers to woo customers in availing a holiday package.  

A close scrutiny of major newspapers in India indicates that huge advertisements covering destinations in Europe, US, and Africa with extremely attractive deals are displayed to enable customers to make an informed decision. 

As a potential traveller, the choice of destinations is endless. An avid traveller, they would keep a bucket list of countries to be visited, if planning an Outbound tour or even the domestic traveller would have some sort of an idea where to travel within India itself.

Why planning early is important to avail an exclusive summer vacation?

Let us assume, you as a traveller have chosen a destination. So quite naturally, you would be interested in knowing at the destination what are the places worth visiting? What are the other activities that the destination has on offer? 

Is it a destination with reference to any theme based holiday? Planning in advance will answer all these doubts with a good amount of research on the subject. Do you need to know how to prepare for travel in the summer?

As this is the age of dynamic pricing which means the earlier you book the lesser you pay, Airlines understand the psychology of passengers and will give an attractive travel fare.  

The Airlines also knows that a summer holiday passenger rarely cancels his holiday, (unless, there is some other domestic compulsion). This helps the Airlines with their seat management methodology as in any case business passengers will tend to book late and they are price elastic customers. So the bottom line is book early and save money.

Let us now examine the trend in the railways.

Although the railway pricing model is relatively inelastic (save the Suvidha set of trains) which means irrespective of the timeline the price charged is the same. However, a distinction has to be made with early bookings. 

You get a choice of seats /berths availability when booked early. Reservations are open 120 days in advance and popular hill resorts railway stations have a 30 day advance booking window. So by booking early, as a traveller you enjoy a choice of comfort.

 

Now let us turn our attention on hotels.

The hotel management would like to capitalize on the lean season.  The same analogy holds true here too just as in the Airlines. Obviously, when planning to book resorts or hotels at a destination tourist location. 

What generally happens is the hotels which are in close proximity to the maximum number of attractions get filled faster, which essentially means you would have more time at your disposal at the station. 

Many hotels and resorts are secluded and are located very far off. So when we book a hotel very late the chances are the popular ones would get filled fast, and as a traveller you would be left to look for an outlying property far from the city center.

This is sheer waste, as an additional time would have to be factored just for commuting alone and could possibly make the holiday tedious.  Hence as a wise traveller booking hotel accommodation early has the benefit of reduction in time wastage, and inter alia enhances the vacation many fold.

From a traveller perspective, the time at the disposal of the traveller is limited and is therefore prudent if a summer holiday’s vacation can be planned well in advance, such that it is value for money.
