Jet Airways said in a statement that the prices shown on MakeMyTrip.com were constructed by the website and not by the carrier.

Following media reports, Jet Airways issued a statement, in which it said the fares seen on third-party online travel portals are constructed by the websites themselves and are the combination of fares over multi-stop flights. "These fares are not available on Jet Airways website," the statement said. The carrier added that in many cases, business-class fares are shown as those might be the last seats available on the route. The company also said that it has asked third-party travel portals to not show such roundabout itineraries with the last available seats.
