Online travel agency Cleartrip has launched multi-city flight booking on its mobile apps. The multi-city flight booking on mobile allows users to book up to 4 flights in the same booking. Cleartrip claims that it has also reduced the number of clicks to make a booking, in order to tackle incorrect info and errors. Users will need to update the app to avail this feature.
The feature was already live on web, but is not available on mobile web. Strangely, while trying to search or book from mobile web, the site prompts the user to either re-open in a browser or go to the app. As of now, other aggregators list stopovers at other cities, which is outside the user’s control since only airlines decide stopovers. Cleartrip’s feature is much like Google Maps’ web version where users can search for directions and places and keep adding options.
Other Cleartrip features and developments:
– In November 2015, Cleartrip launched a rewards program where it would offer free Activities worth Rs 500 each on the first 3 eligible bookings.
– In October 2015, Yatra, MakeMyTrip and GoIbibo started delisting online budget hotel room aggregators Oyo Rooms and Zo Rooms from the platform, where Cleartrip said that it would continue to list them.
– In August 2015, the company launched a mobile marketplace for theme based activities, listing a curated collection of over 5,000 activities and things to do in 50 cities including metros and tourist destinations.
– In June, it launched a partial pay feature that let users pay only the cancellation fee upfront for pre-reserving their tickets. Users then needed to pay the remaining amount 4-5 days before the journey commenced, else the ticket would be considered as cancelled and the deposited fee would be charged.
