Startups tap upswing in luxury travel

30 Sundays, an online travel company that recently raised funds from Info Edge Ventures, Eximius Ventures, and First Cheque, is gearing up to launch a new segment, called 30 Sundays Luxe, for curating personalized semi-luxury and luxury packages, its co-founder Kshitij Chaudhary told Mint.

"Travellers have started craving premium experiences like high-end resorts but somehow the market has not kept up with the rise in demand. Salespersons creating premium packages require different skill sets and expertise as the world of travel is evolving every day," Chaudhary said.
