Easy Trip Planners (EaseMyTrip) has received in-principle Board approval to acquire a 49% stake in Big Charter, a prominent player in India’s charter aviation sector. This move marks a significant step for EaseMyTrip into the rapidly expanding charter and non-scheduled aviation market, enabling the company to offer more personalized, premium, and flexible air travel options to a wider customer base.
This strategic proposed acquisition strengthens EaseMyTrip’s position as a comprehensive travel provider, enabling the company to capitalize on high-margin segments like charter services and Non-Scheduled Operator Permit (NSOP) operations. As corporate clients, high-net-worth individuals (HNIs), and event travelers increasingly turn to chartered flights for convenience and flexibility, EaseMyTrip is well-positioned to meet this demand. By integrating its state-of-the-art technology into Big Charter’s existing operations, the company aims to enhance the charter booking and pricing process, significantly improving the customer experience.
Furthermore, the acquisition aligns with EaseMyTrip’s broader mission to democratize travel, particularly in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, where Big Charter has a solid presence. This will allow EaseMyTrip to expand its footprint in remote regions and improve the accessibility of premium air travel for a wider audience.
Easy Trip Planners offers a range of travel products and services and end-to-end travel solutions including airline tickets, rail tickets, bus tickets, taxis, holiday packages, hotels, and other value-added services i.e. travel insurance, visa processing, etc.
