According to its Cleartrip Unpacked 2025 report, the cheapest flight booked on the platform during the year cost ₹0 after offers and wallet credits, while the most expensive flight ticket touched ₹4.3 lakh. Hotel bookings showed a similar spread, with the lowest-priced stay at ₹48 and the costliest hotel stay crossing ₹4.4 lakh.
Cleartrip’s year-end travel data for 2025 points to a widening gap in how Indians are travelling, with extreme price sensitivity on one end and big-ticket spending on the other.
A key driver behind this shift was the sharp rise in younger travellers. Gen Z bookings on Cleartrip grew by 650% in 2025, making it one of the fastest-growing customer segments on the platform. Their travel choices leaned heavily towards international hotspots such as Dubai, Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok, while value-for-money continued to dominate booking behaviour across age groups.
Affordability showed up clearly in the data. Over 65% of all bookings on Cleartrip were for budget and mid-range hotels, and around 66% of bookings were made via smartphones. Payments also tilted further towards digital modes, with UPI transactions rising 6% and credit card payments increasing 8% during the year.
At the same time, travellers didn’t shy away from spending big when it mattered. The most expensive flight booked on the platform cost ₹4.3 lakh, while the costliest hotel stay touched over ₹4.4 lakh for a Maldives property. At the other end of the spectrum, the cheapest flight ticket was booked for ₹0 after offers and wallet credits, and the lowest-priced hotel stay came in at ₹48.
