Nothing is Repeatable? You could repeat everything he's doing somewhere else like Africa or South America and call it YOY. The better question is: what can you learn from other people's successes and failures?
I saw three things I didn't know, off the top of my head:
1) India/China have a demand for budget travel that's clean because apparently there wasn't enough supply?
2) There is still apparently global demand because they're expanding. So, you could go copy what they're doing somewhere else.
3) His success started with a booking app?
As for the title, sure, but it's just a copy of the article title which is pretty SOP on HN.
He found a niche in the market with demand that lacked supply and filled the gap. Go find a niche.
