If your goal is to maximize \*\*cashback and total savings\*\* on flight bookings in India in 2026, it's usually better to \*\*stack offers\*\* (OTA discount + bank offer + cashback portal) rather than relying on a single app. Here are some of the best options: | Platform | Typical cashback/offers | Best for | |---|---:|---| | \*\*Cleartrip\*\* | Flipkart Axis Bank cashback, SuperCoins discounts, airline promotions | Domestic flights | | \*\*EaseMyTrip\*\* | Frequent bank offers, instant discounts, promo codes | Lowest final fare | | \*\*Goibibo\*\* | GoCash rewards, promo codes, seasonal cashback | Repeat travelers | | \*\*Air India (direct)\*\* | Up to ₹1,000 cashback on eligible MobiKwik UPI payments during promotions | Air India flights | | \*\*CashKaro + OTA\*\* | Additional cashback (often around 4–6% on eligible partner bookings) on top of OTA offers when available | Maximum savings | ### Best cashback strategy 1\. Compare fares on 2–3 OTAs (EaseMyTrip, Cleartrip, Goibibo). 2\. Start the booking through a cashback portal like CashKaro if there's an active offer. 3\. Pay with a travel-focused credit card or a card/UPI method eligible for an instant discount. 4\. Apply available promo codes before payment. This can often result in \*\*8–15% effective savings\*\*, depending on the airline, route, and ongoing promotions. If you're booking with a specific airline (IndiGo, Air India, Akasa, Vistara routes, etc.) or using a particular bank card (HDFC, SBI, ICICI, Axis), I can suggest the combination that's likely to give the highest cashback.
