Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has introduced the service of booking domestic air tickets on its website. The procedure to book air tickets will be similar to that followed for booking rail tickets and travellers will get printed e-tickets for the chosen destination. Details like timing, airfares, etc. will be available on the site.

According to a report in Times of India, an IRCTC official said the Corporation has introduced the facility of booking tickets for domestic flights in the first lot and will extend the service to foreign destinations after observing the response. Booking for popular domestic destinations like Tirupati, Goa, Srinagar, Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep will now be possible from the same portal.
