PALASBARI: Observing the increasing number of fun and business travel in summer, the Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International (LGBI) airport here is ready to observe a 'summer carnival' from May 15 to June 30. Increasing passenger footfalls at this Gateway To Goodness, too, substantiates this idea of overall enthusiasm for travel.
Three food and beverage (F&B) and two retail outlets with a strong brand presence will take part in the carnival. Each of these F&B and retail outlets are offering combos and promotional offers as part of the carnival. Some of the F&B and retail outlets are offering 'cash back offer' with 'buy one get one free' voucher and promotional offers where the user can avail the coupons at retail outlets. One of the top player in the category of tea retailers is celebrating the 'International Tea day' from May 14 to May 22, offering with its high value coupon for the users. On the other hand, one renowned brand is ensuring additional gifts above a certain value of each food and beverage purchase. One international coffee brand is offering 15 per cent discount offer on purchases of products worth Rs 800 and above.
The idea of the summer carnival is to give useful services to the air travelers with value for their money. The airport is creating a lifestyle destination of curated art, craft, cuisine and shopping experiences for all age groups. The combos will come in convenient and easy way for people travelling in groups, especially at the F&B outlets, where one can get the extra bite to eat at reduced rates. Even at the retail outlets, purchase above a certain value will ensure that passengers get additional discount and certain gifts. Some outlets are also offering discounts coupons to the passengers.
The airport will set up four selfie booths with different frolic structure in the departure, arrival, security check area and in the meet and greet area. These booths will create an aesthetic ambience at the airport, giving the passengers the unique opportunity to flock together around the installations and can enjoy the most beautiful time of the North-East region. With passenger engagement activities involving especially children passengers, staff and professional too planned, the carnival promises to enhance passenger experience.
