35. ARTICLE-1
“However, there are many challenges in outbound travel. In
India, companies tend to specialize in either inbound or
outbound, few do both successfully. The skill sets and
experience needed for both segments are unique and not
complementary. The average Indian travel agent deals with
customers who are extremely price sensitive and are inherent
shoppers. Bargaining is a cultural trait.
There is basically a feeling that agents have no right to make
money. In general, agencies in India are not equipped or
trained in charging fees. Another hurdle for Indian outbound
tourism market is the rupee depreciation that has become a
very big hurdle for Indian outbound tourism. Destinations such
as United States, Canada, London, France, Italy and
Switzerland have seen a dip in bookings due to rupee
depreciation.”
