Only availability using these codes I can see are where fares are very low and the free value represents only about rs. 500 - 1000.
Is this the case with others as well? Have these free codes become a marketing gimmick now?
I completely agree with you..These codes value are not more then 500-1000 now since most of the codes are valid for lower 3 classes only ie B, W & O
