Air Seychelles Promises Better Price Tickets

In the Cross Sector meeting held this week, with the Government of Seychelles Ministers, the Seychelles Chamber of Commerce, the CEO of Air Seychelles promised better price tickets on Air Seychelles. The commitment by Mr. Manoj Papa, could not come at a better time when airlines are charging Premium Ticket Economy fares into Seychelles, just because, it is Seychelles.


Paris - Seychelles Three Times A Week

We all heard about the announcement of the three flights per week from Charles de Gaulle. We all know the soap opera played out on recalling this route, and now four years later restarting the route. The key to success of this route rest in solid competitive pricing of Air Seychelles, along with a solid marketing plan, which must include a code sharing arrangement with  air France to easily access markets across France, and we are hence, not limited to just the Paris market.
We are looking forward to competitive prices from Mr. Manoj Papa and if he delivers as promised, we will strongly support Air Seychelles.


Air Seychelles Domestic Praslin Route

This route has had the Praslin community and La Digue up in arms with unpredictable prices, high fares which have punished the Tourism Industry on Praslin now for a number of years. The political fall out is obvious enough for anyone who dares walk about and listen to those in business on Praslin.

Minister Jean Paul Adam came to Praslin, listen to the Trade in a key meeting pushed by Christopher Gill and his subcommittee Secretary Adrian Uzice. Minister Adam took the message to Manon Papa that Praslin is suffering and Praslin needs attention.

In response, Mr. Manoj Papa pa has committed himself fully to me before Minister Joe
Morgan Minister of transportation and Chairman of Air Seychelles, that he will come up urgently with a comprehensive price adjustment making flying to Praslin affordable for Seychellois and Tourists alike.

We look forward to seeing Mr. Papa's proposals.

Rest assured Mr. Papa, if you keep your word, we will support you and Air Seychelles 100 percent.

If not, and you give us Balls, like Kramer did, Jet airways can always use you to replace old Kramer, who is likely serving ground beef in vegetarian menus there.

Sesel Pou Seselwa!

May god Bless All Freedom loving Seychellois!

The past years,Seychelles tourism industry and economy have lost millions revenues for not having directs to our main market.pl in the end of the years,would tell us,arrivals boom this year.Yes,it will boom,as thr majority os seychellois expect,which explain why seychellois opposed Pl unilateral decidsion to stop direct flights to our main market.

Papa,Adam Can and should reduce price ticket for domestic flights .There is no explainable reasons,why a ticket on demostic route is higher than price tickets to many International destinations,like flying seychelles to Mauritius etc....Since months,fuel cost has drastically falls,airlines have been able to genrate,save muliti millions of dollars.......now it is time that consumers benefit also from this fall in oil price.As well as,as a reduction at fuel station pumps locally.We expect a reduction of ticket price on domestic flights,would have a competitiveeffect,namely that Cat CoCo ,will have zo do the same..

Cat Cocos maintains policy of high tariffs to Praslin. This last week we raised the ticket six euro. We have bills to pay asm we will raise prices as needed. Those who do not like it can take the plane to Praslin or helicopter.
