MX is a popular tabloid for the Melburnians available for free every evening except on weekends, now available in the streets of Sydney as well.  I saw an advt in the tabloid yesterday for a cheap airfare deal from www.astravel.com.au. The deal that appeared in the advt is reproduced below …

India       from $1405 *

Mumbai / Delhi / Bangalore / Chennai / Colombo (!!) / Amritsar / Hyderabad / Karachi (!!) / Kolkata

Never knew that Colombo and Karachi are part of India.
