Indigo Airlines — Rude behaviour and excess charging of amount due to negligence by the indigo counter staff


My wife and younger daugher (In one pnr) and elder daughter in another pnr (Two different ticket) travel to delhi by 6e796 indigo flight today i. E. 21-5-16. Despite being issued boarding passes and completing the security check - in 45 min prior to departure, we were not allowed to board. They were right at the boarding gate with the display board still flashing "final call", but the rude staff did not let us in despite several request. Despite report to the manager but due to his unethical behaviour, he did not allow my family to board flight.

After argument, request but the adamant manager did not budge. My wife later agreed to board a flight at 6e286 after paying an amount of rs.8309. She verified again from the counter staff that the ticket is for three persons as there is different pnr, the counter staff told that the amount was charged for the three tickets and allowed the boarding pass. But at the entry gate the staff did not allow that there are two different pnr ticket. She was asked to go back again and was not allowed to board the flight 6e286.
The manager informed that there was mistake by the counter staff and he charged again rs.16208/- from my family in order to board for 6e704 flight which leaves at 2230 at chennai.


I would like to complaint against the indigo airlines and its staff for rude and unethical behaviour causing lots of mental trauma and financial loss during my family journey.

Why they were not allowed to board the flight despite they were in time. They were charged an amount to board the next flight but again due to the negligence of the indigo counter staff, my family had to undergo again trauma.

Now they were in the airport and they charged huge amount despite they were well within their time. I dont know yet what trauma they need to face again at the time boarding flight at 2230 hrs.. Is there any possibility of getting refund of the amount charged and compensation of the trauma they faced due to mistake committed by the indigo counter staff and rude behaviour of the manager.

I am complaining at 2100 hours on 23-05-16
