SpiceJet, India’s No. 2 airline, today announced the return of its Re 1 Airfare Sale putting more than 1 lakh tickets at just Rs 1 excluding taxes and fees.
“Round-trip purchase is required, wherein the other leg of the journey is at regular fares. This offer is available on select domestic direct (non-stop) flights only, and is only purchasable on SpiceJet’s new Mobile App for Apple iOS and Android. The sale is not available through other channels,” SpiceJet said.

“SpiceJet has been recognized by industry experts as leading innovation in the Indian airline industry in recent times, as it has scripted a remarkable turnaround and returned to profitability,” said Sanjiv Kapoor, Chief Operating Officer, SpiceJet Limited.
“Our Re 1/- sale last year shook up the industry. It catalyzed a new approach to pricing in the industry resulting in market growth at record levels, benefitting millions of travelers and stimulating the entire economy in the process,” he added.
“This year the Re 1/- Sale is back with a twist: it is based on round-trip purchase where one leg of the journey is at the regular fare. This sale is only available through our hot new Mobile App for Apple iOS and Google Android. So hurry, download the App today, because tickets available under this sale are limited!” Mr. Kapoor concluded.
