Air India Express — misleading information

Address:

New Delhi, Delhi

I had my flight from New Delhi to Lucknow on 14 Feb 2015 (AI 811). For boarding, I was going to T-3 but just to confirm, i called up the Air India customer care number[protected] n inquired for departure terminal. The female exec. said that departure terminal for my flight was 1-D. I asked her to cross check it once again as i was doubtful of Air India to depart from 1-D but she confidently asked me redirect to 1D from on-my-way to T3. On her advice, I reached 1-D just to find no Air India departure terminal there. Airport officials at 1D asked me to rush to T3. I again called up AI CC exec. n this time the female exec. confirmed T3 as my departure terminal. This unnecessary to-n-fro travel to 1-D terminal wasted more than 45 minutes. I reached T3 but realized that boarding for the flight had closed 5 minutes back. I told the officials everything that had happened and requested them to let me board the flight but they paid no heed and instead displayed rude behavior, especially the counter manager. I lodged a complaint about it but the AI assistance exec. shamelessly assured me no action over it! I had booked my return ticket as well which also got wasted. I want Air India to compensate for the entire loss. booking id of goibibo: TUA534NQY
