IndiGo Complaints & Reviews

It's very unfortunate to complaint against go indigo airlines. I travelled on 19.10.2017 from dehradun to blore. I found two of our suitcases found their locks broken.

Its not right to your part of causing loss to customers. My travelling tickets are 6e 963 sequence no. 098, 6e 963 sequence no. 97 & 6e 273 sequence no019, 6e sequence no. 020

Dear sir/madam
This is to bring it to your notice that i flew on 17.10.2017 from mumbai to bhubaneshwar in no.6e 598 vide booking ref. Bcl5kg.
Me and my friend were denied the baggage allowance for students and had to pay for it. We were told that the booking was not made under the particular reference, when i had received the discount on the ticket price and a call afterwards confirming the privileges.
Our baggage was also not weighed properly. My friend was carrying a luggage bigger than me. Yet we were told we exceeded the allowance equally. Also no bill was provided for the payment i made at the counter except my credit card bill.
The ground staff was very casual about it and said this was a very regular thing to happen. The lady at the counter kept on calling others and checking for the claim, causing unnecessary delay.

It was a horrible experience for us and caused unnecessary stress when we had taken all measures while booking the ticket.
I always travel by this airline and this is the second time i am facing such an inconvenience. Earlier too i had cancelled my ticket and booked a now one but just before flying came to know that there has neither been any cancellation nor any booking.
This is not expected from an airline which claims efficiency!!
Awaiting your response and cooperation.
Thanking you

Hi,

I booked a flight indigo from pune to visakhapatnam using yatra and it's a connecting flight from pune to hyd and then to visakhapatnam,

Now i got to pnr when i came to airport i came to airport. They are saying i booked as a light fair booking so i checking bag is not allowed. And they charge me 200 from pune to hyd and again from hyd to visakhapatnam another 200 rupees.

400 rupees is not a big deal but i have not been communicated neither by yatra nor by indigo. One sms would have done the purpose.

This is really not the right way of earning money mentioning that we are lowest ever flight.

This is embarrassing moment for me in the airport.

I had booked in a320 flight from kolkata to delhi on 8/11, departure time 16.45 hrs which was rescheduled to 21 45 hrs, delhi landing time 00.15 on 9/11, not acceptable. Rescheduling has to be between 16 hrs to 18 hrs, not such inconvenient hrs. Indigo airlines should look into customer convenience. As such, i shall travel to noida, a distance of 27 kms which will be risky and expensive at such odd hours, not to mention of great inconvenience to all.

Regards.

We are passengers of flight 6e 961 (Pnr number: d8kdkf) which was scheduled to depart from kolkata (Ccu) at 21:30 and arrive at mumbai (Bom) at 00:15 on 9 september 2017. We had specifically booked this flight as we were boarding a flight back to south africa at 04:30 on 10 october 2017 and were required to be present at the mumbai airport 90 minutes before departure; which would have left us with more than a sufficient amount of time, had the indigo flight departed on time and as promised. The series of events which prevented this, took place as follows:

- we drove four hours from mayapur arriving at kolkata airport at 4:30pm;
- we immediately proceeded to check in at the indigo counter and proceeded through security by 17:00;
- after proceeding past the security gates we then received an sms from indigo at 17:45 that the flight was to be delayed to 00:05 on 10 october 2017 due to air traffic congestion at mumbai airport;
- upon receiving this sms we proceeded to contact the indigo call centre in order to find a solution for us not to miss our international flight back to south africa;
- indigo then referred us to duty manager at the boarding counter who was projoto;
- we then proceeded to inform projoto about the situation we were facing, seeking advice on any further delays;
- we were advised by projoto that the flight was to be further delayed and only depart kolkata at 00:40 due to a large pothole on the mumbai runway causing the runway to close and leaving a possibility for the indigo flight to be cancelled;
- after thirty minutes, we followed up with projoto who informed us that there would be no further delays and that he had arranged for indigo personnel to be present at the mumbai airport upon our arrival with our boarding passes to allow for us to promptly board our international flight;
- at 00:30 we enquired as to why we were not boarding the indigo flight as yet according to projoto's instructions and only then did he inform us that the flight had supposedly been cancelled;
-we were then sure that we would not make it for our international flight back to south africa and then requested the indigo duty manager to arrange for us to fly with indigo to dubai on the earliest flight so that we would be able to catch the last leg of our international flight which was to stop over in dubai;
- projoto blatantly laughed at us and stated that this would not be possible, leaving us with no further options;
- at 00:45 he then received a phone call and informed us that boarding gates we were now open for us to fly to mumbai;
- we were still made to believe that indigo personnel in mumbai had arranged our boarding passes and would be waiting for us to arrive at mumbai airport. We were provided with a contact number of the duty manager at mumbai airport (Nadeem) who was meant to receive us and keep our boarding passes;
- after boarding, the indigo flight took off at 01:40 and we were in communication with the flight attendant (Neha) regarding our situation who agreed to assist us in promptly existing the aircraft upon landing in mumbai;
- we landed in mumbai at 04:20, existed the aircraft with no assistance from nadeem and proceeded to baggage claim where our luggage was not fast tracked as promised by projoto;
- we proceeded to contact nadeem who informed us that he was unable to retrieve our boarding passes as promised and informed us that out international flight had departed.
- we had to demand assistance from nadeem, who then sent another indigo employee to transfer us to the international terminal, where we found nadeem;
- we explained to nadeem that we have now missed our flight back home due to indigo's delays and are now stranded with a 2 year old kid with no place to go.
- we received the standard indian response, "there's nothing that we can do!"
- after 7 hours of multiple encounters with indigo, the terminal management and emirates mumbai (Who told us that indigo was responsible) we were left with no option but to find our own means of getting home.
- we had to loan the funds to purchase air tickets back home at a total cost of zar 15 024.
- indigo airline needs to be responsible for this cost as it was due to their falsified information and "don't care" attitude that we missed our flight home.

We understand that flight delays are circumstantial and that carriers are bound by the regulations of airports authority of india; however, there ought to be contingency plans in place to prevent such catastrophes and protect the interests of passengers. As foreign nationals visiting a country which is meant to hold ethics and principles in high regard, we are extremely disappointed and appalled by the service we received from indigo and mumbai airport. A trip that was planned in advance to discover and develop an appreciation for our heritage turned out to be one of pure misery. From this experience we would not recommend travel to india especially not via indigo airlines to any of our family and friends in south africa. We require a refund of the costs borne to purchase additional tickets to south africa. Indigo claims to be a an award-winning airline and are now required to compensate us for our losses and debt due to indigo's poor service delivery. Should we not receive feedback regarding our refund, we will have no other option but to expose the airline to the broader public domain via social media.

We were sent an email suggesting rescheduled flight and if we want to book another flight or cancel at no cost. But when we cancelled it we have got back zero refund. It was not mentioned anywhere that booking through an online portal would give us no refund. This needs to be checked into and atleast half of the amount should be refunded. Or the messages should not be misleading

Booked a flight to coimbatore from hyderabad on 14th oct, 2017 at 20.50 by end of july itself. Without any proper intimation they rescheduled the flight 12 hrs prior to actual time.
When reached airport on 14th oct 7p. M without knowing the flight departed in 9.25 a. M itself. I asked for the reason, they said "cancellation of flight might be a reason for rescheduling". Because o[censored]rgency i asked for immediate flight they said flight is available at 20.50 (Time booked by me) and proceeded to pay with a current amount of rs. 6375. After receiving boarding pass and crossed security gate i realized the same flight booked by me and got confirmed in july itself is ready to depart.
Wondering to know the same flight was available on same time but rescheduled my booked flight without any confirmation from me. More than that pnr number issued for new booking is same as departed flight.

Eventually realizing that they made me to pay for same flight booked by me in july.

Looks like this is now a kind of strategy.
I had a flight from bangalore to delhi on the 11th october at 6:05 am. However, the security check was so crowded that by the time i could finish mine it was 5:40 am and i reached the gate by 5:43 am (Had to sprint).
However, i was not allowed at the gate.. They (Mr raghavendran the then indigo manager) said the gates were closed at 5:40 am.
Well, we were around 8 people who hadn't boarded the flight.
I was asked to meet another attendant at gate 8c. The info was nothing but to take a ticket for the next available flight with a whopping extra cost of rs 12, 800 (For 4 tickets). I had not other option than to buy.
However, i later when spoke to my co-passengers heard this happened with them too and had to pay up 5k as extra and on discussion many more had seen the same experience.
One passenger a lady was to travel to chandigarh and had no money with her.. She was left crying not knowing what to do.

What kind of strategy is this? I once had a freak incident with spicejet just 10 mins for flight's departure.. They picked me up in their jeep and dropped at the flight. Why is this not the case with indigo..

What should i do now? Go with a consumer complaint?

Who is responsible for this.. Airport authorities? For the huge rush at security check or indigo? For not helping us get to the flight.

Why are we consumers being targeted..

I was travelling with indigoairlines from amritsar to srinagar with my spouse. I want to bring to your kind notice that your manager mr gurmeet at amritsar airport misbehaved with us and particularly with my spouse. As she has lot of medical complications she got sick and get blood pressure shot up to 220. Now we have to get her hospitalized. I request the airport authorities to take necessary action against him or otherwise i might be have to start the legal proceedings against your company.

I was travelling from lucknow to bangalore and i had a halt of 2.5 hours at new delhi airport on 14th october 2017. When i reached bangalore airport i found that one of my suit case was missing.

Ct baggage description - bu22hwx.
Passenger name - manoj kumar
I am really upset with this kind of service from indigo airlines and i am facing this issue second time. I have lodged a complaint at bangalore airport and i am expecting an immediate response and i am expecting airlines to take care of passengers luggage with utmost priority to improve the service.

Pnr e7jgxy. Flight from pune to cochin.
My handbaggage was weighing only 5.5 kg but it was forced to be loaded as checkin baggage. Upon receipt, the bag was in opened condition, seal was broken and my book "theory of cookery" which was safely placed in the bag was missing. Front zip also was in opened condition. Highly dissapointed with baggage handling.

I am chirag vijayvargia from udaipur rajasthan. I had flight on 8 october from new dehli to bishkek kyrgyzstan via dubai. I booked ticket online. Pnr number is ny6jgc... Whe n i was go for boarding tht time they told me u need visa for dubai stay... But when i booked tickt tht time no tell me about visa problem... Many times i went dubai via coonecting flights tht time no need visa... Issue is that if indigo need visa connecting flight why they not told when i book tickt nd why confirm ticket if visa needed... So i missed my flight on 8 october... I am student 22000inr not return... Please suggest me nd refund my money...

I had booked the flight tickets on 06aug'2017 by contacting group desk of indigo airlines for 12oct'2017 travel date for 16 people with the amount of inr 20544. Under the sixteen people, one person name (Sunita) my mother was not well and she was suffering from lever disease. I had sent request to change the travel date from 12oct to 16nov by waiving off the change fee and forwarded the medical documents as well. But they denied the same and i have not travelled and airline has forfeited the entire amount of inr 20544 and not refunded single penny.

Sir/ madam, i have booked a ticket holding pnr o5qhhl from pune to delhi on 14.10.2017 since december 2016. Now i want to do web check in the flight, but on going through the company website, it is seen that no seat is available for. To select a seat either i have to pay rs. 300/- or to go to airport counter.
As i have already paid the money to the airline then why the web check in facility is not available for me. I also called the indigo customer care for clearance, he also said that you have to pay extra money for selection of seat or either go to airport for check in. It is totally injustice to me as the airline is not providing the web check in facility to me.

I bai qun fang take indigo 6e252 on 10 oct 17 pnr cgji5x and on arrival kolkata found one luggage bag complete damage pir was raised with indigo ground staff and bank account details given for reimbursement but till now no steps taken from indigo airlines unit, not even acknowledged the complaints.
Thanks

I, gopal ravindranath, travelled from trivandrum to delhi on 9/10/17 vide indigo flight no 6e 5062. This booking was rescheduled instead of my booking in flight no. 6e 359 on 9/10/17, wherin i had booked a veg meal and insurance policy (Insurance no. [protected]). These two services were not incorporated in my rescheduled booking.

Kindly reimburse the amount paid for these two services to indigo company which i have not availed. Kindly do the needful in this regard.

With regards

I was travelling from delhi last evening where my bag which i gave for check in luggage has around 1000 rupees, when i returned back to ahmedabad and collected my luggage and returned home i noticed that the wallet inside my bag was open with no money inside, not a single penny was left and my open wallet indicated that someone took out the money from my bag. I want to lodge a complaint againt indigo as it should be the airlines reponsiblity to take care of my valuables when i checked my bag in.

My flight was from bangalore to lucknow via new delhi (6e 485, 6e 6612).

The cabin pressure was not balanced. While landing i felt too much air pressure. There was a severe pain in my ear. When i came out of airplane i was not able to hear properly.

After 2 days i had to return to bangalore with indigo only. I was so scared that i cancelled the flight and booked a new flight in jet airways.

I returned bangalore with jetairways and this time there was no air pressure issue.

Its is almost a week since i travelled in indigo, i m still not able to hear properly. I went to a ent specialist doctor for a test. I am taking medicine now.

Its is my sincere req to indigo to fix thos issue. This will keep troubling passengers.
