YYZ-DEL-KTM
can anyone explain to me why AI fares are so enormously expensive compared to all others?
I have been using ITA to explore travel options including looking for the itineraries that will get you to KTM in roughly 24 hrs or less out of YYZ or BUF via EWR.
AI just always seems to be ridiculous, as if its not showing real prices or something

on Air India
JFK-DEL-KTM are reasonable...$1700+
JFK-LHR-DEL-KTM are more
YYZ-DEL-KTM under any circumstances comes up as $10000+
I got turned on to these flights because it gets you there in under 20hrs which would be awesome....but i dont think people routinely pay thousands more in coach to get there 8hrs faster.
meanwhile the "AI" fares from BUF-JFK DL-DEL-KTM run 34hrs for $1700

the $1,700 fare seems pretty decent....why not just go with that????no point spending a lot more just to get there a few hours earlier....
