A lot of people shirk international travel due to expensive airfares. However nowadays, there are several discount round-trip flights to India. So, if you are planning to fly overseas, ensure that you get a good deal when you book the flight ticket. If exhaustive traveling to different cities is a part of the itinerary, it is advisable to avail yourself of an Airpass, which reduces the price down to a fraction of the actual cost.
Prime Travels offers bargain airfares. Their unbeatable tariffs include Washington-Delhi/Mumbai-Washington for $799, plus taxes; Vancouver-Delhi-Vancouver for INR $38,500 plus taxes; San Francisco-Bangalore-San Francisco for $990 plus taxes; London-Mumbai-London GBP290 plus taxes; Los Angeles-Mumbai-Los Angeles for $890 plus taxes; Boston-Hyderabad-Boston for $999 plus taxes; Seattle-Mumbai-Seattle for $999 plus taxes; Newark-Ahmedabad-Newark for $1,070 plus taxes; Phoenix-Chennai-Phoenix for $1,090 plus taxes; and Houston-Cochin-Houston for $1,090 plus taxes.
If calling from the US, dial 201-255-3078 (1 a.m-5p.m.EST, Mon-Fri) for information.
Globe Travels offers a good discount too. Fly from Los Angeles to Bombay/Delhi/Bangalore/Madras or Hyderabad for a round-trip fare at approximately $799.
