How we check facts
Every fact on this site carries a label that says where it came from and when we last checked it. Tap a label to see the source.
What the labels mean
- ✓ Verified · date · source We read it ourselves on an official, airline or operator source, recently enough to trust it.
- ✓ Confirmed locally · date Our own on-the-ground confirmation, where no official source contradicts it.
- ! Not yet verified Reported by a news outlet, travel site or other second-hand source. Useful, but check before you rely on it.
- ⇄ Sources disagree Two sources we read say different things. Tap it to see both.
- ⟳ Re-checking · last checked date The fact is older than its re-check window. Prices are hidden, and critical rules are held back until we've checked again.

Prices
Prices are always a range in rupees, with the date we saw them and where. When nothing is published, we say "Ask us for a quote" rather than guess.
