Airfares from India to international destinations have surged recently, especially affecting travelers planning summer holidays. This increase is influenced by airspace closures due to the Israel-Iran conflict, necessitating longer flight detours and rising fuel prices, as per travel companies. Lower seat capacity on specific routes contributes to higher fares. European routes, particularly to France, Germany, and the UK, have seen a 20-35% fare increase since March. Further hikes are possible if these conditions persist.
