    In connection with reference, I want to bring into your notice, my septuagenarian parent wanted to avail your premier service on 24th June 2021 from New Delhi to Mumbai via Flight no AI 865 but unfortunately they could not fly (denied by airlines at airport).The reason given by air lines is not carrying RTPCR report. Followings are my arguments

    1. First of all, I want to clear you, while booking of the ticket, nowhere it was mentioned or notified that RTPCR report is mandatory for travel to said destination.

    2. Even while doing web check-in, it was neither pointed out to carry RTPCR report nor led to denial of web check-in.

    3. On the 24th of June 2021 my old parents reached airport well before time (allowed by CISF at entrance) but at Air India counter they were denied boarding for not carrying RTPCR test report.

    4. My old parents were in great trauma and shock for not allowing to board, that too without their any mistake or fault.

    5. Even airlines did not offer for rescheduling of flight.

    6. This led to cancellation of tickets (besides having valid ticket )

    7. Lastly, it took them 2 hrs to come out of the airport from that incident.

    After happening all this to my parents, still we preferred and booked air India flight after 2 days of this incident to travel to Mumbai.

    With utter confidence and humble request to you to reimburse the amount of ticket booked considering all the said events happened with old parents especially in this pandemic situation.

    With warm Regards

    Neha Modi

          Address: AI Office, Calicut International Airport,

          I am hereby to inform you that, AI Calicut airport staffs & Officer did not allow me to travel from calicut to Dubai.
          I Already have the required valid documents and approval from UAE Govt. I presented it at the time of check-in but the officials did not allow me to travel because of the reason they mentioned that I have invalid GDRF approval.
          I hereby attaching the GDRF Approval which I have got on 4th August and still valid. Because of this existence of the approval I could not apply for another. Its showing status of the process is already exist.

          Because of these reasons I could not travel to Dubai. AI Staffs misbehave me at that time.
          Travelling Expense from Kannur to Calicut, RTPCR test charges, Rapid test charges at Calicut, Return Expenses from Calicut, all were beared by me. I lost my money. May be it will effect my job also.

          I requesting you to get compensation & take necessary action against the officials who misbehave at the time of my that situation. Very poor customer service I faced there.

          NB: Please find the all supporting documents for taking the necessary actions.

            Was submitting my luggage at the luggage counter. Many of the staff were pulling their mask down while talking. So many passengers in the queue did not maintain social distance and were talking pulling their masks down. People sticking to each other in queues.
            Is there any staff keeping a check on these things?

                  We had availed a ticket for Trip planned to Bangalore for my family (3 Members) and ticket bought through Make My Trip (Copy of Ticket attached). The Trip was scheduled on 10th Aug 2021 @ 9.30 am through AI 506.

                  Unfortunately, my family could not board the flight, as airline had closed the counter at 8.50 am and not allowed them to drop baggage or allowed them carry even the baggage after pleading with them. They were waiting in Queue for dropping baggage from 8.05 am, even after several request the Airline staff did not give priority for baggage drop.
                  We had even done web check-in for all passengers.
                  The family was in queue at 8.05 am itself, the copy of email of Air India enrollment with AIR India representative at 8.19 am done during waiting in queue is attached for proving the presence of family in Airport baggage drop queue..

                  As AIR India did not allow them board and presence in Bangalore for my family was urgent, we had booked tickets to another Next immediate flight available from same Airport and travelled to Bangalore.

                  We would hereby request you to refund the cost of ticket for all 3 passengers.

                  Kindly arrange to issue payment on immediate basis.

                        Sir,

                        Please refer booking reference No.H60E2, wherein myself along with my family members (total 4) had ticket for travel from Delhi to Bhubaneswar on 15.07.2021.

                        During collection of boarding pass, one lady (on-duty) asked me for RT-PCR /RAT test negative report. Since we have had no such reports with us, she arranged some papers for declaration that we shall do the necessary tests at Bhubaneswar Airport, and we agreed.

                        In the meantime, the supervisor rushed into the spot and told us to get the negative reports, otherwise boarding pass shall not be issued. We requested him to do the necessary tests at Bhubaneswar airport, but he did not agree and became aggressive when we asked for rules/guidelines, and directed us to do the tests at Delhi Airport itself. We rushed for tests, but could not succeed due to want of time, and the flight took off. We backed to our home in Delhi. I tried to know the name of the supervisor, but his name plate (Badge) in the pocket was down faced, and nobody told me his name.

                        The rule is that RT-PCR/RAT test is mandatory, but it is also written that if no such report is submitted, then the passenger has to do the tests at Bhubaneswar airport. Due to less knowledge of the Supervisor on COVID-19 guidelines, we could not board the flight and our amount has been forfeited.

                        In view of the above, it is requested to enquire into the matter whether it is the fault of the Supervisor and why he became so much aggressive to get the necessary tests there only. If it is his mistake, then the amount forfeited may please be given to me from the Supervisor’s pocket.

                        I am submitting this application late because, I again purchases ticket on 18.07.2021 to Bhubaneswar, and came back to Delhi on 12.08.2021.

                        Regards,
                        (P.K.Nath)

                              Refund is not yet issued by Airline after 4 months.

                              Flight on 27th April from Hyderabad to Mysore was cancelled by Airline at last minute - around 5 hrs before departure time.
                              Even after refund claim is requested there has been no refund provided yet and no information on ETA.
                              Status of refund request is same since last 4 months as approval pending from Airline(Air India)
                              Air India customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                I have been following up with the agency [ Trip.com ] for the last 3&half months for the refund of my ticket. It is very sad that at this time of crisis you are holding my money for no reason. Blocking this lump sum money really matters to me. I have been following up with the travel agency [ Please refer my email chain with Trip.com since 29 April 2021] for the status of my refund and it's very clear that money was being held by Air India.

                                I need immediate action from your end to get the money refunded quicky. i will expect a reply with a clear timeline for the refund of my money.

                                    I cancelled my ticket and requested for a refund of $1543 in January 2021. After making 100s of phone calls, emails and fighting through 8 months. I got $595 couple of days ago. How many more months/years I have to fight with you people to get the rest of the money.Why are you embarrassing Indian people in-front of others? Help me if you can.
