Air India Express — No Refund for cancellation of flight

I was supposed to travel in Air India Express Flight On 27 May 2011 From Sharjah To Cochin on Flight Number IX 412. 27th early morning I received a call from air india express , they said the flight is cancelled due to pilots strike and further information will be given later. So I went to the sharjah air port office of air india express and they asked me to send a mail to air india express for 100% repayment since the flight got cancelled. I have send many mails to the company but there is no action so far . I had booked this ticket through my friends credit card. My PNR Number is : IX16046830. total amount payed to book the ticket was 1066.20 AED. Please do the needful to refund my money.

Air India Express — no refund after flight cancellation

Air India refuses to refund the ticket due to flight cancellation. Employees are very rude and irresponsible.

Air India — No Refund after cancellation of trip

I had cancelled my trip to Delhi from Kolkata on Air India , I was promised a refund within 7 working days through an email confirmation, Its been almost 20 days I have not recieved my refund nor do they respond to any emails now or the Call centre says that it is not their department . This looks to be a big harrassment.

Indian Airlines — Flight cancelled, but only taxes refunded

Dear Sir,

I had booked a ticket from bombay to trivandrum for 10th Nov by Yatra.com. The yatra reference number is HQN7NA. I was informed by the arlines about the reschedule of the flight IC[protected] h) to IC[protected] h). However, as the new flight time was inconvenient I canceled the ticket, and I was assured that since the time difference is more than 1 h, I will get complete refund. But I was provided only the taxes, and upon investigation I was told to get my ticket stamped (for full refund) from the airlines office. After much effort, I finally got my tickets stamped from the airlines office who mentioned "full refund to be provided" but I have never received the money even after sending repeated reminder.

Passenger name: Oommen P. Varghese Ticket no.[protected]
Julie Jacob Ticket no.[protected]

Yatra officials says that Indian Airlines office is not responding after repeated reminders and hence they cannot refund.
Sincerely

Oommen

Air India — flight cancellation without notice

dear sir,
I booked a ticket through a travel agent on Air-India Express-194 from lucknow to delhi on 28th december2009 for three passengers. the ticket was booked for 7th feb 2010 and the pnr no was IX-IX06493023. The scheduled departure of flight was 04:35 hrs and was to reach delhi at 05:30 hrs.
since I had to go to madurai i had booked further ticket on kingfisher-2415 from delhi to madurai for 7th feb 2010 pnr no:IT-ESUJLJ. This flight was scheduled to depart at 08:50 hrs.
when i reached lucknow airport there was no sign of any fligt nor the air india counter was open. some of the airport staff told that this flight of air india is not operating since last one month. i contacted the travel agent who also felt sorry but told me that nothing can be done now and refund will be given later. since next flight to delhi was at 09:00 hrs I along with four four other passengers had to leave my flight from delhi to madurai.
I had to travel from lucknow todelhi from king fisher flight to delhi at an extra cost of Rs 10000.00 and had to wait full day at delhi to take another flight to Chennai that too at a higher rate and around Rs 9000.00 was deducted from my previous booked ticket to madurai all because of careless attitude of Air India and not informing me in time about the cancellationof flight. while booking the ticket on 28th december 09 they sent a confirmation message on mobile as well as on my e mail. The concerned authorities should be asked to privide for my wastage of time and money and harrasment to my family.

I have sent 2 reminders regarding the cancellation of Booking PNR No EZGJQ1, flight No (IX-203) from Mumbai to Calicut on 10 May 2012 & IX-302 from calicut to Mumbai on 21 May 2012 to [protected]@airindiaexpress due airindia staff strike.Still they are not responding through email or telephone.

Request you to claim the same at earliest as possible.

I have booked the tickets for a journey from Mumbai to Calicut on 9th May 2012 in IX302. Flight was cancelled due to strike. I had sent 4 reminders for refund . One reply I got that ticket was refunded on 17th May 2012. But still nothing has happened. If you call no body will lift the phone. Almost 35 days over...

Dear Sir,

I has issued a ticket on 19 March 2012 using my Emirates NBD debit card to travel from Dubai to Mangalore on 19th May 2012, and later we want to travel to different destination we had cancelled the ticket prior one month and it has been notified to me that refund will credit to my account within 15 working days, But its almost 4 months passed and i still didnt hear any news from them. I send almost 100 mails claiming the refund to [protected]@airindiaexpress.in & hb.[protected]@airindia.in, and even they are not replying to mail and i called to the mumbai office and they told that they will do the needful and still now no response and the worst part is that sometimes they will answer and hold the phone and even they will not talk to us, just now i called them at[protected] and happened the same, they are holding my call, and mine is international call as i am in UAE and lose good amount to follow-up about my refund.
Hereby requesting you to do the needful as i am really fedup with this poor services from Air India Express.

Pnr No:IX11724282

Hello,
Every one I like to inform every one and also like to raise a complain all the passenger who travel By AIR INDIA EXPRESS, I had a bad experience when I was traveling From Mangalore to Doha With My wife and my child, the staff are so rude and lot of harassments from staff till the security in the Mangalore Air Port, trying to open all the baggage’s creating problems to the passengers unnecessarily without any strong reasons, its has been noticed that the new ways to make money is that for access baggage weight where they have Set the electronic weigh machine is to 5kgs More then the normal, usually we weigh our baggage’s from our manual weigh machine, which may have some error, considering this and taking this point in mind we reduce our things much more then the luggage allowance to avoid the charge of access luggage, but still every one find the weight more then what they expect, so the Air Port make a good profit of this charging Rs. 475/- per kg, and next thing is that after boarding the flight they don’t provide any kind of food or a glass water for hours after the take up where we find and face tuff time due to the flight is at 7Am and we had to report to the Airport at 5Am without having a proper breakfast, mean while I would like to tell you that I had booked my flight at 8 Am and at last movement I was lucky enough to know that have called me and informed me the flight time has changed to7 Am or else it would be another problem that i may miss the flight, later one board the seats of the flight is such a bad condition that we cannot even lean back, , traveling for hours its normal that passengers may need some entertainment for getting bored, but in this flight they take another advantage of the passenger to make money that is the drop down the TV screen with a movie which is of their own choice and each TV provided for 2 passengers where it cant even watched properly with fading effect on it, and try to sell the headphones to hear the Audio of the movie, and this headphones are waste after they use in in the aircraft because its not useful for any audio equipment, later on the food supplied is not even worth for animals to eat, such kind of food are supplied for passengers, were I noticed everything is returned back to dustbin when gathering back, After that comes liquors for selling like whisky wine bear etc to make again some bossiness in the board, The Airlines are taking advantage as there are no other international flights from Mangalore where the passengers are helpless and forced to take a direct flight from Mangalore. This flights does not have any accurate timings and can change their timings at anytime, more over flights also can cancel any movement and even refund not available so we can take any other flight to avoid delay even though the fault and delay is from their side. earlier I have noticed there were 2 flights in a week and now its 1 flight for a week witch is not reliable, the timings are very early morning which is makes in convince to all passengers who are traveling, The Air India Express is not bothered of giving a good service but trying to make Money and take advantage of the passengers who are helpless, and they say the flights are going in loss may be this is th reason they try to recover their loss in this kind of business, even though they don’t have any feelings of Air crash took place recently, and passengers traveling in this are flying with risk, comparing to this I really appreciate Emirates Airlines which I use to fly from Bangalore to Doha, Via Dubai, but I do enjoy the good service, I had 8Kgs of access baggage were I was not charged any this extra for this due to the kindness of the airlines, the baggage allowance was 30Kg and the Hand bag allowance was 7kgs, and the cabin crew I found were polite too, the food was excellent, and they had provide a free TV to each seat in front of the passengers with a control box hanging were we can select movie, songs and games to kind along with a free head phones, there was also a night lamp where we can use it for our convenience, tea coffee are provide to everyone on request any time when they needed it, they also provide toys, color pencil blankets to kids and children with some special gifts which makes children happy to enjoy the journey, it was said Emirates Airline gets Award every year for the best service and performance, but just I had taken a chance in the Indian Express that to avoid traveling to Bangalore to take this fight, that was a mistake I had made and faced this problem, or else traveling to Bangalore is not so tuff as there are more then 400 luxury super deluxe AC buss Pvt and Govt, every day too and fro, where we don’t even find tired after a sleep in the sleeper coach and next morning reaching to Bangalore, Airport busses are available from the buss stop which makes passengers convenient, and the New Bangalore International Airport is excellent comparing to Mangalore Airport, so I request and cooperate all who have gone thorough this problems and also join hands to teach them a lesson, that the Airlines are for the service of People and its not that the People are here to give them business and take advantages of them, And stop to put an end to this Monkey Business.

PNB:- Please add comments if any of you have gone with any kind of problems by this Airlines
Thank You

I have sent numerous mails in relation to the subject matter& didn't get any refund to the credit card which was used to purchase the ticket. Today I have visited your Sharjah office, they mentioned they can't give any assistance/ support for the ticket purchased online. I have received mail to this ID from "[protected]@airindiaexpress.in" on 13/06/2012 in relation to the cancellation of flight dated 14/07/12 (CCJ-DXB) and second mail on 19/07/12 on cancellation of flight DXB-CCJ dtd 16/08/12. I have spent huge amount to arrange booking with other flights due to short notice cancellation, additionally mental tension. Now I can't afford another loss due to non refund/ delay in refund. I will take-up this issue with consumer court/ medias for my rights if it is not sort out within reasonable time and the Airline will be authenticated. I am forwarding the mails received on cancellation of flights.

Hello,
Every one I like to inform every one and also like to raise a complain all the passenger who travel By AIR INDIA EXPRESS, I had a bad experience when I was traveling From Mangalore to Doha With My wife and my child, the staff are so rude and lot of harassments from staff till the security in the Mangalore Air Port, trying to open all the baggage’s creating problems to the passengers unnecessarily without any strong reasons, its has been noticed that the new ways to make money is that for access baggage weight where thy have the electronic weigh machine is to 5kgs More then the normal, usually we weigh our baggage’s from our manual weigh machine, which may have some error, considering this and taking this point in mind we reduce our things much more then the luggage allowance to avoid the charge of access luggage, but still every one find the weight more then what they expect, so the Air Port make a good profit of this charging Rs. 475/- per kg, and next thing is that after boarding the flight they don’t provide any kind of food or a glass water for hours after the take up where we find and face tuff time due to the flight is at 7Am and we had to report to the Airport at 5Am without having a proper breakfast, mean while I would like to tell you that I had booked my flight at 8 Am and at last movement I was lucky enough to know that have called me and informed me the flight time has changed to7 Am or else it would be another problem that i may miss the flight, later one board the seats of the flight is such a bad condition that we cannot even lean back, , traveling for hours its normal that passengers may need some entertainment for getting bored, but in this flight they take another advantage of the passeager to make money that is the drop down the TV screen with a movie which is of their own choice and each TV provided for 2 passengers where it cant even watched properly with fading effect on it, and try to sell the headphones to hear the Audio of the movie, and this headphones are waste after they use in in the aircraft because its not useful for any audio equipment, later on the food supplied is not even worth for animals to eat, such kind of food are supplied for passengers, were I noticed everything is returned back to dustbin when gathering back, After that comes liquors for selling like whisky wine bear etc to make again some bossiness in the board, The Airlines are taking advantage as there are no other international flights from Mangalore where the passengers are helpless and forced to take a direct flight from Mangalore. This flights does not have any accurate timings and can change their timings at anytime, more over flights also can cancel any movement and even refund not available so we can take any other flight to avoid delay even though the fault and delay is from their side. earlier I have noticed there were 2 flights in a week and now its 1 flight for a week witch is not reliable, the timings are very early morning which is makes in convince to all passengers who are traveling, The Air India Express is not bothered of giving a good service but trying to make Money and take advantage of the passengers who are helpless, and they say the flights are going in loss may be this is th reason they try to recover their loss in this kind of business, even though they don’t have any feelings of Air crash took place recently, and passengers traveling in this are flying with risk, comparing to this I really appreciate Emirates Airlines which I use to fly from Bangalore to Doha, Via Dubai, but I do enjoy the good service, I had 8Kgs of access baggage were I was not charged any this extra for this due to the kindness of the airlines, the baggage allowance was 30Kg and the Hand bag allowance was 7kgs, and the cabin crew I found were polite too, the food was excellent, and they had provide a free TV to each seat in front of the passengers with a control box hanging were we can select movie, songs and games to kind along with a free head phones, there was also a night lamp where we can use it for our convenience, tea coffee are provide to everyone on request any time when they needed it, they also provide toys, color pencil blankets to kids and children with some special gifts which makes children happy to enjoy the journey, it was said Emirates Airline gets Award every year for the best service and performance, but just I had taken a chance in the Indian Express that to avoid traveling to Bangalore to take this fight, that was a mistake I had made and faced this problem, or else traveling to Bangalore is not so tuff as there are more then 400 luxury super delux AC buss Pvt and Govt, every day too and fro, where we don’t even find tired after a sleep in the sleeper coach and next morning reaching to Bangalore, Airport busses are available from the buss stop which makes passengers convenient, and the New Bangalore International Airport is excellent comparing to Mangalore Airport, so I request and cooperate all who have gone thorough this problems and also join hands to teach them a lesson, that the Airlines are for the service of People and its not that the People are here to give them business and take advantages of them, And stop to put an end to this Monkey Business.

I called Air India Customer care at 2:09 on 13/01/2013 and spoke to a Staff named GIRI, I dont know if he was Drunk or Sleepy, he was very RUDE on the call. I wanted to know which are the Dreamliner Flights available for Travel to Delhi, and I was complimenting by letting him know that I wanted to get an Experience travelling in Dreamliner as I have heard good feedback and reviews about the B787, This staff (GIRI) was so RUDE on the call mentioned below are some statements made by him.

What you want?
You want information or not?
What your so childish...
There is a call waiting, your taking so much time.
Helloo gentlemen, you want information or not?
Hellooo your blaming me ah?
I know your talking softly, now what I have to do?

I was shocked, the way he was speaking to me. I told him see I am being so polite to you and I have not abused you, I am talking very softly, he kept me on mute and then when I told him I know you have kept me on mute, he disconnected my call.
I have wrote a Complaint feedback on Air India website Reference Number is WB-DBLR[protected]

I called again to Air India customer care and spoke to a Staff (Firoz) to tell what happened on the previous call, what his colleague (GIRI) did on the call. I asked him where their call center is located, he told its in Mumbai. I asked him if they were Direct Employee of Air Inida or it outsourced to someother company, He told me it was NOT Air India and it was someother company. Then he told I cant give that information, I replied saying I got to know that Air India has outsourced its call center.

And Air India has outsourced its call center to some junk company who has such unprofessional employees who spoil the Reputation of their company and its Client.

The staff whom I had called again to complaint has told that I would be getting a call from Air India. This kind of Customer service is NOT Acceptable.

Air India Express — non loading of baggage of all the passengers

I came by the same Air India Express flight (IX- 931) on 11 th June 2011, Singapore to Kolkata). The airlines didn't load the baggage of a single passenger from Singapore. Is it a mistake or is it a crime? Sample this...Their staff didnt come down for 1 hour and all the passengers complained to the on duty -airport manager...Despite the manager calling them, they took 1 hour to come and we were left at the mercy of our incompetent government officials. They didn't load the wheel chairs of the disabled passengers also. Its a criminal offense on their part!!! And most probably DGCA is hand in glove with them as this is a frequent occurrence with this particular air lines but no action is being taken against them. The only reason this is happening is because these useless government service guys know that they will not be thrown out of office even if they kill somebody.I had to proceed to Guwahati for my onward journey and i wont be surprised if i have to go back to Kolkata to collect the baggage ...most importantly paying from my own pocket. The people involved from top to bottom should be sent to jail the way Kalmadi and his team of thieves are sent to jail... please support this campaign against Air India Express...atleast remove the suffix 'India' from it as i being a law abiding citizen of Indian republic I feel deeply hurt and disturbed with this CRIME.

This is Noor Mohamed, Husband of Mrs. Samira Banu Noor Mohamed holder of Indian Passport No. H5796642.

This is for your kind information that my wife Mrs. Samira Banu Noor Mohamed has lost his luggage while returning from Dubai to

Tiruchirappalli via chennai on Air India Express flight No. IX-6122 on[protected]. She was travelling along with our 4 years old daughter

Ms. Musfira.

She was carrying a hand baggage of weight 14kg which contains both their belongings. Before boarding the flight one of the Air India staff
requested her to hand over the hand baggage so that he/she put that in luggage section instead of carrying. The Air India staff have given my wife
a luggage tag. Once they reach Tiruchirrappalli she could not find this particular luggage. She is not the only passenger who lost his luggage, there are many passengers who lost their luggage too. One of the Air India staff at Tiruchirappalli requested to hand over the luggage tag inorder to trace it.

He also gave us an official receipt for the same. While handing over the luggage tag my wife shocked to see that the name written on her luggage tag is wrong. Tag No. EY641869 with a passenger name Mr. Muthusamy. My wife is a first time flyer and she could not noticed it.

After so many follow ups we could not get any proper responce from the Tiruchirappalli Airport office. Almost 14 days has been passed away.
What i can say is that they are least bothered. The blue colour trolley bag contains new dresses, my daughter medical records, original sworn
affidavit taken from Dubai consulate general office (belongs to my cousin).

I am submitting this complaint hoping that some one will take appropriate action and help us in finding our luggage.


Passenger Name: Mrs. Samira Banu Noor Mohamed
Passport Number: H5796642
Air India Express Flight No. IX-6122 (From Dubai to Tiruchirappalli via Chennai)

Every one I like to inform every one and also like to raise a complain all the passenger who travel By AIR INDIA EXPRESS, I had a bad experience when I was traveling From Mangalore to Doha With My wife and my child, the staff are so rude and lot of harassments from staff till the security in the Mangalore Air Port, trying to open all the baggage’s creating problems to the passengers unnecessarily without any strong reasons, its has been noticed that the new ways to make money is that for access baggage weight where thy have the electronic weigh machine is to 5kgs More then the normal, usually we weigh our baggage’s from our manual weigh machine, which may have some error, considering this and taking this point in mind we reduce our things much more then the luggage allowance to avoid the charge of access luggage, but still every one find the weight more then what they expect, so the Air Port make a good profit of this charging Rs. 475/- per kg, and next thing is that after boarding the flight they don’t provide any kind of food or a glass water for hours after the take up where we find and face tuff time due to the flight is at 7Am and we had to report to the Airport at 5Am without having a proper breakfast, mean while I would like to tell you that I had booked my flight at 8 Am and at last movement I was lucky enough to know that have called me and informed me the flight time has changed to7 Am or else it would be another problem that i may miss the flight, later one board the seats of the flight is such a bad condition that we cannot even lean back, , traveling for hours its normal that passengers may need some entertainment for getting bored, but in this flight they take another advantage of the passeager to make money that is the drop down the TV screen with a movie which is of their own choice and each TV provided for 2 passengers where it cant even watched properly with fading effect on it, and try to sell the headphones to hear the Audio of the movie, and this headphones are waste after they use in in the aircraft because its not useful for any audio equipment, later on the food supplied is not even worth for animals to eat, such kind of food are supplied for passengers, were I noticed everything is returned back to dustbin when gathering back, After that comes liquors for selling like whisky wine bear etc to make again some bossiness in the board, The Airlines are taking advantage as there are no other international flights from Mangalore where the passengers are helpless and forced to take a direct flight from Mangalore. This flights does not have any accurate timings and can change their timings at anytime, more over flights also can cancel any movement and even refund not available so we can take any other flight to avoid delay even though the fault and delay is from their side. earlier I have noticed there were 2 flights in a week and now its 1 flight for a week witch is not reliable, the timings are very early morning which is makes in convince to all passengers who are traveling, The Air India Express is not bothered of giving a good service but trying to make Money and take advantage of the passengers who are helpless, and they say the flights are going in loss may be this is th reason they try to recover their loss in this kind of business, even though they don’t have any feelings of Air crash took place recently, and passengers traveling in this are flying with risk, comparing to this I really appreciate Emirates Airlines which I use to fly from Bangalore to Doha, Via Dubai, but I do enjoy the good service, I had 8Kgs of access baggage were I was not charged any this extra for this due to the kindness of the airlines, the baggage allowance was 30Kg and the Hand bag allowance was 7kgs, and the cabin crew I found were polite too, the food was excellent, and they had provide a free TV to each seat in front of the passengers with a control box hanging were we can select movie, songs and games to kind along with a free head phones, there was also a night lamp where we can use it for our convenience, tea coffee are provide to everyone on request any time when they needed it, they also provide toys, color pencil blankets to kids and children with some special gifts which makes children happy to enjoy the journey, it was said Emirates Airline gets Award every year for the best service and performance, but just I had taken a chance in the Indian Express that to avoid traveling to Bangalore to take this fight, that was a mistake I had made and faced this problem, or else traveling to Bangalore is not so tuff as there are more then 400 luxury super delux AC buss Pvt and Govt, every day too and fro, where we don’t even find tired after a sleep in the sleeper coach and next morning reaching to Bangalore, Airport busses are available from the buss stop which makes passengers convenient, and the New Bangalore International Airport is excellent comparing to Mangalore Airport, so I request and cooperate all who have gone thorough this problems and also join hands to teach them a lesson, that the Airlines are for the service of People and its not that the People are here to give them business and take advantages of them, And stop to put an end to this Monkey Business.

PNB:- Pleas add coments if any of you have gone with any kind of problems by this Airlines
Thank You

I had booked a ticket in Air India Express IX506 departing from Trivandrum on 14th June 2014 at 10pm to Chennai for my mother. But at 9 pm, the passengers were informed that there is a delay in the departure and expected to depart at 11.30 pm. But till 11.30 pm there was no information and we contacted the airindia express&#039; customer support number they do not have any information regarding that. When called the airport officials at Trivandrum, they said the flight is departed at 11.30pm from chennai to Trivandrum and it will depart back from Trivandrum at 12.30 am. But at 12.30am, since there was no information, we had called the airport officials again and they said it is cancelled due to shortage of crew members. But still, after that till now (1.30 am), no information from the Air India express officials regarding the alternative arrangements. Very irresponsible they are. My old mother travelling alone, waiting the whole night in the airport without any clear information on what to do further, is quite stressful. Air India Express has to take the whole responsibility for the inconvenience caused and do the needful
