Flying SpiceJet? Be wary of booking months in advance

We usually book flight tickets in advance to take advantage of price factor. In the era of dynamic pricing the early bird gets the advantage of lower fares.
In the case of SpiceJet, you are in for a surprise. I had booked a ticket for October couple of months in advance. Now I find that the same ticket is available for almost half the price on the same flight. It's akin to hitting below the belt of customers. When I contacted the SpiceJet people they had a strange explanation. It's part of dynamic pricing they say. World over in the case of dynamic pricing, the fares go up towards the travel date. In the Quixotic world of SpiceJet, passengers who book in advance pay more while those who book last minute pay less.

So guys, if you are planning to fly SpiceJet, don't book months in advance. You will be in for an unpleasant jolt. Better still, go for other airlines that does not follow skwed policies. My experience with Indigo has been great. I regret not booking with them .When I did the booking they had some technical glitches and I was not able to do the booking.
Guys, be on your guard against SpiceJet.
