MMT review

MakeMyTrip covers flights, rail and bus, which means you can search flights, rail, bus, hotels, holiday packages and car rental in one place. Hotels can be combined with a flight or a train, and packages bundle the trip for you if you would rather hand over the planning than price each leg yourself.

There is a mobile app, and it is the main way bookings get made and changed. The same catalogue sits behind it, covering flights, rail and bus, so you can check a fare, book a room and adjust a train ticket without moving between separate sites. Support on email, phone and help centre covers questions either way.

Yes for the bookings the policy names: Free cancellation on hotels, buses and trains. If a hotel, bus or train booking changes shape, you can cancel it without a fee through the app. Flights and car rental are not named in that promise, so read the terms on those before you commit.

Support runs on email, phone and help centre: a help centre for self-service questions, plus email and phone when you need a person. There is no live chat in that list, so for anything time-sensitive the phone route is the one to pick.

MakeMyTrip is operated by MakeMyTrip Limited, headquartered in India and trading since 2000. It is a booking platform rather than an airline, bus company or hotel chain, so the fare you see is set by the airline, operator or property you select rather than by the app itself.

Not in the products list. flights, rail and bus covers the ground travel and stays, and ferries and cruises do not appear there. If your itinerary includes a ferry crossing or a cruise leg, plan that part on a site that lists it and keep the rest of the trip here.

MoMo sits in the same broad category, with flights, rail and bus on offer. The difference is that MoMo adds tours to the mix, while MakeMyTrip leans on packages instead. If you want to add sightseeing to a trip, MoMo has the wider list; if you want everything bundled as one holiday, MakeMyTrip's packages are the closer fit.

A bus-only search is FlixBus territory, since its product list is bus with nothing else attached. MakeMyTrip carries bus alongside flights, rail, hotels and car rental, which is the better choice for a trip that mixes modes. Pick the single-mode operator when that is all you need.
