“We have received an excellent response to the package, with a group of 60 already confirming their bookings for December,” KSTDC managing director Vinay Luthra told PTI. He said the package was drawn up keeping in mind the sales potential of the corporate sector, who have the money, but no time at their disposal.

The package, priced at Rs 9,500 per person covers the tourist circuit of Bangalore-Mysore (KabiniôBandipur/ Srirangapatna) -Hassan (Belur, Halebid, Shravanabelagola)- Hampi (Vittala temple, stone chariot)-Pattadakal-Goa”,he said.

“In case the corporate tourists wish to join the train at Hassan, we will take them from here to that city at our cost. If they wish to drop off at Hassan, it is our responsibilty to bring them back to Bangalore,” he said.

Luthra said KSTDC was looking at an occupancy of 40-45 per cent for Golden Chariot for 2009-10, as against 35 per cent last year
