If the information about flight cancellation is provided within 2 weeks but prior to 24 hours of flight departure time, then alternative flight within 2 hours shall be provided. 

If this is not possible, passengers are entitled to following compensation in addition to refunds amount:

Where the passenger is already in-transit and a subsequent part of the flight is cancelled, the customer can do either of the following:

  • Remain at the transit station and re-book an alternative IndiGo flight at no additional cost for final destination, subject, of course, to availability

  • Remain at the transit station and accept partial refund for the cancelled part of journey

  • Return to the point of origin and receive a refund, or re-booking on alternative IndiGo flight at no additional cost or a credit for future travel on IndiGo.

Refunds will be made, upon production of satisfactory proof, to persons who have either paid for the booking or in whose name the booking has been done.

My flight 6E 73 journey date 26th May 2019, was delayed for 1.5 hours and after take off one hour later it was broken down for some technical issue and it took 4 hours to change the aircraft and fly again. So total Delay was more than 6 hours. Because of this delay, I have to take unpaid leave for the whole day and that cost me around S$ 150. How do I get the compensation for this delay?

Admin Reply :

You shall be approaching the airline at first for the compensation and make a formal request for the same. We expect it works out at the level of airline itself.

My indigo flight is delayed by 1hour 10 minutes. Do I get any compensation?

Admin Reply :

We do not think this will entitle you to compensation. Please read through the terms and conditions on airline website. If the delay is caused, the reason for delay holds importance. Also, the delay can entitle you to have  a refund, or a future travel date, or alternative flight but not compensation.

My flight was delayed by half an hour. I had paid some additional charges which was for assurance of baggage and time. But now when my flight was delayed I want to know the procedure for compensation.

Admin Reply :

We would suggest that you read through the airline policy for compensations. We do not think that the airline will provide any compensation for 30 minutes delay. However, to begin the procedure for compensation claim, you can either call the airline customer service or write an email to them.

Sir, I booked a flight 6E-755, PNR GHP1GB from Dehradun to Delhi for 03 Sep 2016. The flight was scheduled to take off at 1425. I got stuck in traffic and spoke to your customer care executive on the phone informing her that I might get a bit late and to inform the check in counter. She aggreed to do so. I reached the airpot with my wife at approx 1405 and was informed that the flight has boarded and the gates are closed, at the Indigo ticket window, and the security guard. I had to travel by Jet as I had no option. I was informed that some amount will be refunded to me as a ' No Show '. I mailed reservations@goindigo.in immediately and repeatedly after that , but my mails were bounced back with the message that " their inbox is full ". May I be kindly informed if any refund is due to me at all or what is the rule position on this kind of situation. I will be grateful. Amitabh Negi

Admin Reply :

At first, let us make clear that we are not related to any airlines and we do not have telephonic customer service support. So, you did not speak to us. 

Second, since yours is a case of No Show, some small amount will be refunded. You shall speak to the customer service of the airline.

Hi, This is Milind Patwardhan and booked my ticket before 2 monthnsof departure and later on I cancelled my ticket. How shall I get my refund. Please let me know the procedure step by step.

Admin Reply :

You shall raise a formal request whether you booked with an agent or an airline. If booked with agent, then agent has to be approached for this purpose. If booked with airline, it has to be approached. These days, airlines keep refundable amounts in their credit shell which enables you to travel in a future date. So, you can request for release of money from credit shell if you want it in your account. Refunds will be given back through the same medium which was used for booking of tickets.

This is one of the rare bad experiences. You are required to be at airport check in counter at least 2 hrs before departure time. However, since flight was pre-poned, you could get in touch with nodal officer on following contact details: Ms. Priya Kataria E-mail: NodalOfficer@goindigo.in.
