🟡 Moderate Fare Months February, March, and September provide a good balance between competitive prices, excellent flight availability, and pleasant weather as the seasons transition.

🟠 Higher Demand Months April and May experience increasing demand as many families travel during the school holidays, despite the climbing summer humidity.

🔴 Peak Travel Season October, November, December, and January are the busiest and most expensive times for travel between Manchester and Kochi.
