In order to make bus transportation more accessible and seamless in Kerala, Cleartrip, a Flipkart company, rolled out 4500+ bus connections in the state. The company has partnered with Kerala State Transportation Corporation (KSRTC) and leading private players to offer various bus options for travellers across the board.
Cleartrip launched bus services earlier this year to ensure greater travel connectivity. It has an inventory of 10 lakh bus connections and plans to build the most extensive bus network in India. Since the launch, the company has witnessed more than 100% growth month-on-month.
Speaking on the development, Karthick Prabu, Head of Strategy, Cleartrip, stated, “Kerala, rightly known as God’s Own Country has continued to be one of the most sought-after destinations. We are pleased to partner with KSRTC, we look forward to boosting road connectivity to aid both interstate and intrastate travel while positively contributing to Kerala’s tourism.”
With the new bus service, Cleartrip has successfully addressed critical user needs through unmatched flexibility and transparency. Some key features include a 24*7 voice helpline, no convenience fees, earning supercoins for every bus booking, 24-hour refunds, and self-serve cancellation. By strengthening its offerings under air, hotels, and buses and commitment to value-for-money constructs, Cleartrip was recently declared as the second-largest OTA player by a recent benchmarking report.
