Hi, I am struggling to book a seat. I am not sure how to resolve my problem.

Whenever I call it takes very long time to connect. Call ends and goes to survey. I keep hearing beeps as if someone is disconnecting forcing call to bounce. I don't understand how my queue number goes from 3 to 13 to 45? It should go to 2 then 1. But goes other side...does some one mannuly control the queue? Can't understand how can air india do this...

'All our executive are busy' is all I hear everytime.

And if i manage to talk, I am told someone will call me from reservation team but I do not get call back.

This is happening since last 2 months. My return leg tickect has been postponed due to corona virus pendamic.

I cannot even manage my booking online. It says invalid when I try to search via pnr or ticket number. If you cannot assist atleast open my ticket so taht I can manage online. Search and try to book. This is terrible. On one hand you have blocked acces and on the other made difficultto get through to customer support...

Can i get any assistance from air india please? How should i book a seat?

Hope to hear from someone at the earliest. You can reach me on my email. Send a contact number I can talk to directly.

Thanks

        Address: India

        This mail is regarding the domestic flight that I was supposed to take on the 14 th October 9:30am going Delhi-Guwahati (AI 889) where I could not take it because of delay with the airport RT-PCR test.
        I arrived to the check in point at 8:50 am because there was no way I could arrive beforehand as I had an international flight from London prior which required me to get tested. The results took more than 4.5 hrs and then there was customs and baggage claim.

        My problem is that Air India, since they did not allow me a to check in past 8:30 am, (which is their usual protocol to close check in before departure) and gave away my seats to accomodate other passengers, they should have atleast been flexible with the rebooking and refund . But on the other hand it was me who had to queue in line for another hour and pay for my newer flight (AI 891) at 4.15 pm the same day with approximately the same amount as was paid for the flight missed.

        I sternly believe that as it was not the fault of the flier (myself) with missing the flight and due to delay with the PCR test arranged by the airport authority itself, there should be flexibility with accomodating me on the next flight or atleast a full refund of ?7890 for the flight missed . This is downright wrongful behavior which is not expected from a company like Air India and needs further investigation and justification.

        Attached is the proof that I was there in the airport itself (refer to time and date of the rt pcr report). Also attached are the details of my missed flight newer flight.
        I expect that this will be sorted and refunded as it is a huge amount of money for any hard working person that should not be lost specially during a time like the ongoing pandemic.

              Sir, I had requested to cancel my flight AI 983 on 15th may 2021, unfortunately I could not fly as all AIndia flights were suspended due to Pandemic.
              I understand as the flight was non refundable, I will not be refunded any cost
              My humble request to ask the Air India to revive the flight so that I can use to travel from mumbai to dxb

                On 13.09.2021, I tried to book a flight ticket for my wife and my infant daughter via Air India Website from FRA to BLR for 23.11.2021 (Passenger Last Name: Athuluru).

                A Payment of 698.65 Euros has been deducted from my Card (Card holder: Pruthvi Vattikunta) by Air India Ltd (Eur), however, the ticket has not been issued. We did not get any PNR Number as well. I called the customer service team and they suggested that I give this feedback officially on the AI Website. Although I did it, I have not yet received any response.

                I am helpless and tired of Air India Customer service.

                Please hep me with any info that could be useful to me.

                Thank you.

                Best Regards

                      I have booked flight tickets through online mode from www.airindia.in on 26 October 2021 for one passengers named SWATHI DEVIREDDY to travel from london to hyderabad on 2 december 2021 and returning on 14 Jan 2022. The booking reference is Y3LV0 and flight number is ai 147 and 148. Amount of £. 634.77 and £684.77 was debited twice from my hsbc visa debit bearing number. I was waiting positively that the excess deducted amount would be credited back to my debit card account. But the statement is depicting that the amount was deducted twice i. E. For failed transaction also. So kindly do the needful.

                            My complaint is regarding the refund of cancelled ticket amount. Due to Covid -19 issue my ticket is cancelled and Air India issued voucher to redeem the amount but when asked refund they again deducted amount without any clarification or reason for deduction.

                            Several email send to the customer support but no response.

                              This is Karthik complaining regarding the refund for the air india ticket with eticket #[protected]. I cancelled the ticket on 10May2021 due Covid19 situation in India during that time. We made the cancellation of the ticket through air india customer service call as we couldn’t cancel the ticket online due to changes that were being made to one of my return flights. I contacted air india customer service 4 to 5 times and nothing happened till now. They first told that it would take 45 days to refund and then when i called second time, they told they will send an email regarding the refund. When i called them third time, they told me to send a feedback form with my issue and they mentioned that my case is considered as high priority which will be resolved in a week. Nothing has happened till now. I want the issue to be resolved and process my refund soon.
