Hi,
I am sorry i have no idea where i have to make a complain, perhaps you can help me. Since this pandemia i have a ticket with air india from ktm to ccu that i have trying to change date, and there is no way to do that. I have contacted the customer service via all the possible ways and i have only received evasive answers.
I am from argentina and there is no air india office in here to call. I just want to know how to do to change my ticket´s date and when india is going to allow us to fly.
I beg you if you can do something. Or just give me an e-mail contact that solve my problem. I am behind this since march/april.
Thank you very much and sorry to bother you.
Sincerely,
Diego

Sir, On I tried to book Air ticket for a travel from Delhi to Mumbai. My money of Rs 5111 got deducted at time 15:14 but ticket was not booked. It showed booking failed. Pic of Mobile SMS from CitiBank attached. Then I had to rebook for same amount again.

I expected money to return in 3-4 days but Iit had not come back so far. Kindly do the needful to get he money back as I have spoken to CitiBank and as per them the money has been deducted and AirIndia has to send back the money for failed transaction.

Dear Sir

Air India is always a preference for an Indian who wishes to travel in India or overseas since it has a culture and tradition of delighted customer experience.

In the month of Feb'20 me and my family had decided for a vacation at GOA in the month of May'20 as per our leaves sanctioned being a salaried employees.

As you are aware that the world was badly impacted with COVID-19 Pandemic and it brought a threat of life for human beings. Post nationwide lockdown life has changed in a drastic manner and human beings have been forced to choose its priorities for survival.

Current situation has also impacted our travel decision and we had to decide to drop the vacation plan at goa. But when we approached Air India for a complete refund we were asked to defer the travel plan surprisingly.

Sir I wish to bring a few facts into your kind notice as stated below which clearly reflects why we cannot defer the travel plan.
1. We have 4 members in our group suffering from a heavy diabetes problem and always carry their medical kit as prescribed by the doctor. Currently its very difficult to travel to these people as they have high propensity to be infected from COVID due to poor immune system.
2. We are salaried employees and facing salary cuts due to industry slowdown. We found it very difficult to meet our family needs and such financial help (Ticket Refund) will really help us to make most of our expenses.
3. We have 6 children below 10 years of age and travel with these age groups is equally risky as with senior citizens.

I urge you to consider the above facts kindly arrange to approve a complete refund of fare paid by us. Please find the attached tickets details for your reference.

Me and my family will be highly thankful to you for this act of kindness.

I have booked tickets for my parents-in-law from thiruvananthapuram to newark and then return from newark to thiruvananthapuram in air india. I booked the tickets through myticketstoindia. Due to covid-19, the flight has been cancelled and hence i have also cancelled the tickets through the booking agency "myticketstoindia". The booking agency has charged me additional $150 for performing the cancellation process and submit the refund request to airindia. I have verified that the tickets were cancelled through the airindia website. But i have not received the refund amount. While checking with air india, they are asking me to contact the booking agency. While checking with the booking agency, they have clearly mentioned that the tickets were cancelled and refund request has been submitted to airindia and currently it is pending with airindia and they have put on hold all the refunds. My booking reference is v9umyc.

As i received last reply from air india they should refunding amount within few more days already 15 days completed. I was cancelled the booking five months before still i am waiting for refund. I am sending mail again and again but i didn't not get any responce. These are my journey details

I am writing this complaint against Air India. Air india staff has stolen my gold jewellery from my luggage. I traveller through air india on 16th aug 2020 from delhi to coimbatore with flight AI512.

They opened my bag and took my pendant set with mangalsutra and a ring. When i reached home and opened my bag i saw these things missing from my bag. I didn't go anywhere in between and nobody came to my house after reaching so i am sure things have been stoled during flight by Air India staff.
