Travel Fintech Startup SanKash Reveals How India Travel During Long Weekends

Commenting on the travel trends by Indians, Akash Dahiya, Co-founder, SanKash said, "Long weekends have become the new way of enjoying time with families and friends. As two festivals - Raksha Bandhan and Janmashtami falling closer together, its no surprise that many people are traveling back to their families from metros, where they work or live. Families also look to spend time together to catch a breather from their daily routines and hence, we see a huge demand for family trips to destinations such as Goa, Jaipur, Manali, Ooty and Mysore. We also witnessed many advanced bookings, which indicates that people are actively planning for long weekend outings."

SanKash is the country's only travel fintech aggregator that enables travelers to spread the cost of their travel into digestible payments spread over a period of 3 to 24 months by partnering with leading travel merchants.

The company also suggests tips to ensure before planning for long weekends:

1. Advance Booking: Customers should book their travel plan well in advance to ensure getting good rates.

2. Safety: Ensure while traveling, the aspect of safety is well covered. During long weekend holiday plans, there are a lot of people who like to travel and hence many places get too full. Its needed that wherever the booking is happening, mode of transport should be safe. Also, carry your important documents that can be produced wherever necessary.

3. Comfort: While booking your plan, it is necessary to consider "Comfort" as one of the preferences whilst traveling with family, kids and/ or friends. Comfort ensure a good travel experience.
