nIt?s an enticing two- or even three-in-one. Travel to Colombo, spend a few days in Sri Lanka and head on to another Eastern hotspot ? all at rock-bottom rates with the airfares and hotels both thrown in. There are a handful of packages. While all packages (per person) offer two nights in Colombo, they offer two more nights to Singapore (Rs 13,060 + $125), Bangkok (Rs 12,060 + $105), Kuala Lumpur (Rs 13,060 + $125) and Hong Kong (Rs 15,830 + $150). The Hong Kong package is valid till August 31, others till October 31.

Longer packages throw in two nights in Colombo with three nights in Beijing (Rs 17,450 + $175), three nights in Male (Rs 14,680 + $375), two nights each in KL and Singapore (Rs 14,060 + $190), while a seven nights package includes two nights each in KL and Singapore and another in Genting Highlands (Rs 14,060 + $215). A five nights package has two nights in KL and another in Genting Highlands (Rs 13,060 + $150). With airfare, accommodation, breakfast and airport transfers taken care of, just take shopping money along. If you?re wondering how much you can save on these packages, remember that the Delhi-Colombo-Delhi fare is around Rs 16,000.

nMyanmar Airways has come out with a return fare to Bangkok and Yangon for Rs 6,999 and Rs 6,499, respectively, from New Delhi. The offer, valid till August 31, takes almost 50 per cent off its regular fares on these routes. The Yangon-Bangkok leg is flown on Thai Airways, with attractive packages thrown in. The offer comes with some riders like a no-refund clause and restrictions in date-flight changes. South-East Asian routes have seen a steady drop in fares over the last month. Thai Airways recently cut its Bangkok fares from Delhi by around 20 per cent. Another round of fare cuts in the South -East Asian routes is expected in August to woo incentive tour travellers and students.
