        Respected Sir,

        I was supposed to travel with my Wife and Son(Ayush Kakkar) to Singapore from 12th Jun to 20th Jun-22. We got last minute set back from Air India where they refused to issue boarding Pass to my son as he was vaccinated with Corbevax which is not approved by WHO and Singapore does not allow it. Therefore my Son (Ayush Kakkar) couldn’t travelled to Singapore.

        Passenger Airline PNR Ticket Number
        Mr. Ayush Kakkar Y61Z[protected]/6/1

        I want to put travel insurance claim where they want to Obtain a Property Irregularity Report (PIR) from the Airline authorities clearly stating the reason for delay/cancellation.

        Multiple reminder sent to del.[protected]@airindia.in but Air India neither providing in written the reason for not issuing boarding pass nor giving full refund of tickets.

        Also, they have deducted huge amount of 14, 700 as cancellation fees.

        Please look into this.

          Address: Mumbai

          Air India PIR File number : BOMAI 51058
          AirIndia employee Mr. Rohit made the PIR, he put the stamp at custom and he gave me the copy of PIR, his mobile number is :[protected] and this guy kept my both original tags with him. So I have only photos (attached).

          First bag is a Kamiliant made brown color and the second bag is an American Tourister blue/red/white color with a football print (photos attached).
          Also attaching my tickets, both tags and PIR copy given to me by Mr. Rohit.

          I want compensation as my "Entire Checked-In Baggage" delayed by more than 72 hours and still counting.

          On 6 July, on my arrival date, bags didn't come from Kuwait.

          Ground staff of AirIndia told me that my bag will arrive at my home (Vapi-Gujarat-pin code 396191, which is 180km far from Mumbai international airport) within 24 hours and now almost 48 hours about to finish.
          Nobody picks the phone with that given landline number inside PIR copy.

          I am getting nervous and anxious and high BP due to this.

          My India contact number : [protected] and [protected]

          I want both of my bags.

          Nobody picks the phone. kindly call me and atleast give me some update/

          My Whatsapp number - +[protected]Kuwait's number)

          Please give me some updates and compensation. I made purchase of INR 6, 000 worth of new cloths from jockey store at vapi on emergency basis.

          I also don't know how to write complaint, this is my first time, Please help me.

          In my both bags, I had expensive cloths, expensive gift items for family and friends, expensive food item, and expensive footwear items and i don't have photos or proof of all these belongings as I never thought this would happen with me. In last 11 years, i have travelled more than 50 times and such things never happened with me. This is the first time i am experiencing such bad service from a reputed Airlines.

          I received my first bag which is brown in color after 96 hours from PIR report date and its time.
          I received on 9 July 2022 at 11am IST (almost it took 103 hours). PIR date was 5 July 22:33 GMT
          I received my first brown bag but it was not home delivered. I had to travel 12 km (to n fro) to collect my bag from a shop near the highway which is located at the outer of Vapi city.
          I need compensation for this.
          Also I had to make purchase of cloths from Jockey store worth 6, 000 and I need this money also.

          As of now, my most expensive second blue color bag is still missing by AI and nobody picks the phone from AI.
          Since I received my brown bag, Thus, now I remember what I kept in my blue bag when I started traveling on 5th July.

          My expensive American Tourister Blue bag having football print outside in red and white color, has all my expensive branded 12-13 formal and casual cloths (jeans, shirts, t-shirts); gift for family and friends such as original Prada brand of eye frame with glass, original saffron approx 25 boxes, original new Fahrenheit Dior brand perfume, belt all together it contains materials worth above 1 lacs approx (including value of my this new blue bag).
          I have travelled almost more than 50 times in last 11 years but this is the first time I am experiencing such a bad service from an airline (in just 4 hours of journey from Kuwait to Mumbai).

          One AI staff Mr. Bipin, told me that AI brings lots of commercial cargos, therefore, they offload passenger bags and later they falsely blame Kuwait airport name to escape from compensation claims. Also during this July month, since there is a long holiday in gulf countries, so flight is 100% full with human weight so they off load passengers bag to manage commercial cargos.

          Hello,

          Today (Tuesday) morning at 10 am, I received my second bag i.e almost after 6 days. Again, it was not home delivered, and again I had to goto courier office (12 km to n fro) to collect my bag.


          This was second time for my second bag for which it was not delivered to my home.

          My first bag was received by me after 103 hours and pls note that my entire check in bag was delayed by AI.

          Kindly process for compensation which would satisfy my mental harassment, anxiousness, my blood pressure, my new purchases from jockey store to meet my basic requirements. Attaching the bill from jockey store.

          Also, kindly note that one employee of AI told me on very first day (I.e on 6th July- 3:30am) that due to heavy commercial cargo, the entire lot of passenger’s bags were left by AI. This is not acceptable.

          Also pls note that I postpone my various domestic travel plans because of delayed delivery of my baggage.

          Pls reply.

          Regards,
          Gyanesh.

                    I have purchased 2 flight tickets, attached, in November and December 2021, which we cancelled, filled in feedback forms and called numerous times but 8 months later we still haven’t received any refund.

                    Every time I call, customer service says that I will receive the refund in 7 to 14 days, but sure enough, still haven’t received this refund. This is pure incompetence and a resolution needs to be found ASAP.

                    Dear Sir,

                    I have to come to this to write my grievance here since I don't have any other options left.

                    We booked our India travel from Delhi to Melbourne, Australia for 26th April 2020. However, due to the unprecedented COVID situation, we couldn't travel for almost 2 years as borders were shut down and COVID situation was very uncertain. I requested for refund in 2020 as soon as I found out that we cant travel but I never received any response. I was not able to connect to AI by any mode as they all were showing not in service. AI online portal displayed notification for all COVID-affected passengers that those tickets can be used in some way again to book the tickets once the travel resumes. In 2022, when things seems normal and borders were open, we started to plan our India travel again. We tried to reach out to their customer service numbers (given here www.airindia.in/customer-support.htm) but it is next to impossible to connect to them. I raised many requests through their Feedback portal (www.airindia.in/feedback-form.htm) but all we received is acknowledgment but no resolution. Melbourne Air India office told us they cant help us since we booked the ticket online. We tried to escalate it through [protected]@airindia.in but they responded saying it cant be refunded since its been more than 15 months (I had also requested refund within 15 months window but received no response). I dropped follow-up emails but again, no response. Their phones are not connected either.

                    We are travelling to India almost after 5 yrs but we are not able to reuse the tickets we booked with AI. We were misled by the airlines that it can refunded/credited and now left stranded without being able to connect to them. Its frustrating and is causing undue mental stress to the family.

                    I have attached the eTicket and cancellation request email here but I can provide all the email communications if needed.
                    Any help to resolve this matter to get the refund back is highly appreciated.

                    Regards,
                    Ashish

Then the Air India DM on floor advised me to book Emirates...

                        PNR-YH83Z & Ticket Number[protected]
                        Booked on-21/03/2022(21st March, 2022)
                        Cancelled on-21/03/2022(21st March, 2022)
                        Travel date-02/04/2022(2nd April, 2022)
                        From- Chennai / To- Hyderabad
                        Travel Agent- Easemytrip

                        I booked a round trip ticket from Chennai to Hyderabad on 21/03/2022 through the agency EASEMYTRIP. I cancelled my tickets on the same day i.e., 21/03/2022.

                        I received full refund from Indigo Airlines for my return journey ticket through EASEMYTRIP vide PNR -NWF7HT (Partial refund: Rs.718/- on 21/03/2022 & Balance refund: Rs. 3000/- on 23/03/2022). However, a full refund for my onward journey booked with Air India is YET TO BE RECEIVED.

                        I request the Airlines to refund the full amount on cancellation as was done by Indigo. I would like to bring to your kind notice that denying full refund by Airlines is in violation of the Ministry of Civil Aviation's Passenger Charter wherein it is stated that -"You can cancel or amend the ticket without any additional charges, within 24 hours of booking the ticket. This facility is available up to 7 days prior to the specified flight departure on the first leg".

                        I have sent a lot of mails so far but no action is taken. The struggle is going on since 21st March, 2022. Air India please take action or I'll be forced to go to court of Law and make you pay a hefty penalty.

                              Hi There,

                              Date: 19.06.2022
                              PNR: 5QINGL
                              Boarding: Bengaluru / BLR
                              Transit: Mumbai / BOM
                              Destination: Varanasi / VNS

                              Problem:
                              Total weight of baggage: 65 kgs, including 0 cabin bags
                              Check-in weight permissible as per booking: 50 Kgs (25kgs * 2)

                              No concession in weight given as we had no hand luggage for the cabin. Second, we were charged 1200 per KG which should ideally be 600 per KG. The reason for the extra 600 per KG is the transit flight, which I did not choose but was forced to do so, as there was no direct flight.

                              The staff behaviour was very rude and they has separate counters for weighing and billing making one person to run across the airport.

                              Descriptive:

                              We were two people flying from BLR to VNS. While booking we got no direct flight so we had to book a transit flight from Mumbai. We choose AI as it was giving us the maxm baggage weight option(25 kgs each).
                              We have a total of 65 kgs with us and no extra cabin bag, as we had all marriage shopping items in different suitcase.
                              Problem: We got no concession even we had 7.5kgs each cabin baggage weight left. Second, as it was a transit flight, we were asked to pay 1200 extra for each KG, which ideally should be 600 per KG.

                                The reschedule of the flight from SYD-DEL followed by DEL-MAA (booked as connecting flights) was intimated by the third party travel agency only, not Air India. After several calls to customer care, they responded stating that the airline isn't responsible to provide any arrangements in case of delays for an Economy passenger. On checking in at Sydney Airport, the personnel stated that they weren't sure about anything and that they did not...

                                I booked a ticket n need to cancel straight away as it shows 78000 but money was taken as 180000 as in bhat.

                                Waiting for the refund, no one is helping.

                                Need to confirm when it will be disbursed into my account..

                                  We are family of 4 traveled from New York to Delhi (Fri Jun 17th)on Virgin Atlantic and from Delhi to Chennai on Air India (Sun Jun 19th) . As per Virgin Atlantic our luggage's are checked in to our final destination which was confirmed by Air India counter at Delhi Airport. But before boarding AI flight to Chennai we were told all our luggage's were not checked in and it will be sent on the next flight. Its been 2 weeks now - I traveled with a 6 year old with all his necessities in those checked in luggage(s). I had called, emailed, tweeted but haven't got a response on when they are planning to send all our luggage(s). I don't know what to do - hopefully there are authorities who can look at it and communicate to us why the delay and when they can send it. With half our vacation over - yet no sign from AI.
