New Delhi: Operators such as Radisson Hotel Group, Thomas Cook India and online tour operator Cleartrip, said demand is primarily for drivable getaways.

Flight bookings, too, have seen a similar trend for destinations such as Visakhapatnam (320%), Kochi (14%) and Srinagar (11%). However, flight booking for Goa and Jaipur fell by 20-30% due to higher airfares, Cleartrip said.
