damaged baggage
Sir /Madam
I Mrs. Sonali M. Shah, had traveled to Bhavnagar to Mumbai through Air India domestic Flight no. AI652, where my baggage was damaged by Airport officers which was reported by me to the Air India Office at T2 Terminal, Airport Authority complaint letter attached herewith, the Airport Authority had assured me to get it repaired through their consultant Vilson Enterprises, the Vilson Enterprises had come to our home to collect my damaged bag on 27th June 2019 and has now claimed that the baggage cannot be repaired whose receipt is also attached along with this.
I want a viable compensation from the Air India airline for the damaged done to my baggage.
No reply till today, expecting a positive reply from your officers at the earliest.
Regards
checkin and boarding process in jfk
As a national airline you are abdicating they responsibilities bif making the country, the people look better. AI 102 JFK DEL total disarray . No TSA PRE in Boarding pass even though Known Traveller Number entered my n ticket. Had to go back & get new pass. No announcement on Business class boarding. In the name of wheel chair and children aircraft was almost full
Why limit to 350 letters?
Why not allow editing?
Can’t spell check.
Your software is so outdated.., ,
Either short staffed or incompetent staff. Radha G at the gate did not even acknowledge that I asked her why is business class not announced. She perhaps things all Indian travelers are an entitled lot and don’t deserve attention. NOT AFTER I PAY INR 5 lacs! YOU GAVE TO TREAT ME BETTER. The reason for this complaint is her reaction or lack of one.
damaged bag compensation
In 2017 my parents flew from Ahmedabad to Birmingham via Delhi, When they arrived Air India Did not bring their bag. It took 5 days for Air India to bring this bag to us after me from UK and My brother from India keep chasing this irresponsible people.
When bag arrived it was broken and so badly that can't repair or use again.
Complained since 2017 yet not received any compensation from Air India or even apology.
Called Air India in London and asked for GM and I can hear on the phone he asked lady on the phone the reason I want to talk to him and when I said complain he said give email and asked him to send email. I did so and never got any reply.
Air India owe my parents compensation for delayed bag, damaged bag, New bag price, 2 year worth of interest and also compensation for all stress and hassle we are still going through with Air India.
Some of the photos I have attached with this complain, I have tried everything I can as human being but as standard no reply and Air India do not bother.
This is last attempt from my side before I take this matter to court
air india flight
Our online boarding and seat booking was not considered for air India flight to Newark to New Delhi in flight staring on 8 july. As we booked seat no 17j but on the time of boarding they did not assign me dat seat and gave me seat in h line which is not comfortable for me and reason they were giving s the flight is prepone 1 hour earlier seat no is not assigned which is senseless..
about the change in flight schedule.
I advocate pradeep patil age 66 and my wife had book air tickets from Air India for our journey from mumbai to Newark. We had book tickets on 20 june 2019 . Our PNR is 1G-N1M9CU . We live in Nasik Maharashtra which is 200 km long from mumbai . We departed from nasik to mumbai to be in time for our flight . My age is 66 and my wife is 57 . We both are diabetic and i have problem in traveling long by car so we left early . I was sent a message by air india at 5.57 pm in the evening that our flight will leave for Newark at 9.30 am in the morning . Up that time we were at vikroli mumbai . We don't have any relatives in mumbai and neither air india provided any space for us to stay in the night. We both senior citizens have to face lot of problems that night and we are very upset about the service of air india . We also had to face many problems in newark due to the flight delay .
I put my grievance by this complaint and urge you to refund us the amount of tickets for our flight from mumbai to newark .

I am not the advocate of the Air india carrier, but such complaint has no grounds, both in India and in US.
The Air india is an air carrier, bound of ICAO regulations, not the medical instittion.

flight cancelled and not accommodating in another flight from ahmedabad to muscat
Flight number AI-985 was cancelled on 27 June 2019 due to some engine problem and airlndia ahemdabad not accommodating next day also in the flight .
They confirmed that they will give ticket for 28 June2019. But still they are not issuing boarding passes and not supporting to the family.
My family is traveling alone with two kids.
Still not consider same and no support from air india staff
They are harassing unnecessary all families.
Pls look into the serous concern

flight ticket not rescheduled correctly by air india agent, and hence ticket is not valid now.
I had the below ticket with air india for my mel - del travel, booked from makemytrip.
I travelled on 8th dec melbourne to delhi. But for some reason had to stay there longer.
Hence i called air india in end of dec (25-28thdec) and got my ticket status changed to open (Which ur agent confirmed).
My ticket was in kept in open status till june.
20 days back i called up air india and the cust care executive is saying your ticket status is shown as refunded in our records so talk to ur booking agent (Makemytrip)
I called up makemytrip now and they are saying that since the change was done by airindia team, they can't help. But yes ticket status is shown as refunded and not open.
My questions -
1. When i requested for placing my ticket as open, why is it marked as refund?
2. Since my ticket was partially used already, you told me that tickets cannot be refunded or changed to other passengers, hence i opted for open.
Now how your records indicate it as refund?
3. If it was refunded, where was it refunded to? I haven't received any money back? Nor makemytrip (I confirmed with them)
4. Since you moved my ticket, i am sure you have the call logs. Please check the records and confirm what i requested and then got a verbal confirmation saying that your ticket has been changed.
Since it was a open and not date issued, no mail was sent out to me.
Talking to your team is a challenge. Atleast 40 min of hold time. Hence i am writing to you.
Hope this is a quicker way of getting logical answers to my questions.
I cant just go around incircles, calling you and then makemytrip everyday.
—
On this mail thread i have checked with makemytrip again and the answer i get is - ticket has been put on refund status by airindia so they can't help.
I am sure you can definitely check the call logs about this ticket - that i had with your agent in dec - wherein i requested for a open status (As he advised that my ticket can't be refunded or cancelled)
It's high time i am going back and forth on this issue.
Since it's an error from your end to put it into refund instead of open status, give me another ticket / voucher of same value to be used next time. But what am i hearing is that for rs 50, 000 worth of my ticket and booking i am not getting anything back... Neither refund nor ticket (As i always requested).
Requesting immediate action and response please.

I am Col Yashpal Singh Etk: 0982130150394C1 traveling today (25 JUN 19) by AI 3449 (chatered flight) to Leh.
I have a business class ticket/boarding pass.
Today at around 0430 hrs, the AI staff at the AI lounge at Delhi airport denied me the business class lounge services saying that I was not authorised these services since I was travelling in an Army Chartered flight.
Please clarify why the lounge facilities are denied to Army Officers travelling business class in chartered flights.

missing baggage on a international travel and no update of the baggage yet
I have travelled on airindia from copenhagen to Kochi Via delhi and my baggage was missing in delhi . I have raised a complaint and there is no information of the baggage yet

On 21st they tried to deliver a different green bag and it was returned
made to pay extra for hand luggage
My mother was travelling from Goa to Kuwait on 31st May 2019 on Flight AI975 departing at 20.25 hrs. While she checked in at the Air India counter she had her Hand Luggage and lady hand bag (which usually every women in the world carries during her travel). She was told to pay extra for the Hand luggage as she was carrying the lady hand bag, and was constantly harassed by the staff members. As per the Baggage allowance policy which is as below
HAND BAGGAGE or CARRY- ON BAGGAGE
The cabin baggage allowance that is applicable for carriage on all Air India (AI) operated flights is as given below for both Domestic and International travel.
For Alliance Air (9i) operated flights the cabin baggage allowance that is applicable for carriage is as follows:
DIMENSIONS
Height 40 cms (16 inches) + Length 30 cms (12 inches) + Width 15 cms (06 inches) for ATR aircraft - Total of Dimensions 85 cms
NUMBER OF PIECES / WEIGHT
Only 01 piece of hand baggage having maximum weight of 5 Kg is permitted
In addition to one piece of cabin baggage or package, you may also be permitted to carry one following personal item, subject to Security Regulations:
• A Lady's hand bag.
After meeting the above criteria, why was my mother charged Rs 3, 350.00 for the hand baggage? And being a Senior Citizen and cancer patient why was she harassed at the airport, after even informing the staff that she cannot walk up and down for checking in the baggage. Is this the type of service Air India provides to their passengers? This was a very shocking incident and first time where Air India the most reputed India's Airlines has committed.
Kindly respond why did this happen and under what circumstances did Air India charge for baggage.
Thanks
Christy Fernandes
excess baggage charges
I was traveling mumbai to bangkok. On helpline after asking excess baggage charges for mbai bankon the information given was 23kg 1 baggage charges are inr rs.7000/- I had excess baggage of 26kgs and the Air India staff at airport charged me INR rs.50000/-
Please provide the solution and refund for cheating.
Tell me the process of claiming the refund .
my bag got a big cut from inside pocket and food from the checked in bag got stolen.
I departed from Bhopal at 8.05 and landed Mumbai with Flight AI 634 on 19th Jun 2019.
I checked in 1 luggage bag. It was new and good. I was carrying clothes and food item. My bag has 3 zips out pf which i locked 1 zip. Other 2 were small and did not have any item so i kept it open. These small chains were opebed and a cut in bag was made from inside. My food packed were removed from there. Its a shame that people of flight staff does this kind of things. I had 2 to 3 important food items which were removed. My bag which is so good and costly was damaged. Since the cut was from inside I did not see it at airport otherwise would have claimed there. When I opened by bag at home i found a big cut in the pocket and items from bag missing. Dont know what to say. But such thefts should be caught. Is there any way to find out who has stolen. Are there cameras in airport? No security guard is there ? Or security is also corrupted ? I need compensation for my bag. It was new and now it has become of less use.
mental stress and monetary loss due to delay of flight.
I traveled from Chandigarh to Hyderabad by Air India flights AI 464 & AI 126on 14.6.2019. There was a delay from Chandigarh to Delhi. Instead of starting at 1245, it was started at 1335 & reached Delhi at 1445. Then I checked in for AI 126. No delay nothing was notified. All of a sudden at 1700 hrs. They informed that it will start at 1730. But finally they started at 1830 hrs. Reached Hyderabad at 2050 hrs. Baggage were arrived at 2130 hrs. I booked my bus ticket for travelling to chennai on official duty at 2115 hrs. I informed the Air India persons at the aircraft as well as ground staff near the belt to help me. They informed that they cannot do anything. Finally I approached the booking counter they informed that the officers left. Nearly 5 people were chit chatting. But no solution for me. They informed give a complaint online. Above trip was also official. We as Central Government Officers have no other go. We have to use Air India only. Because of that they are not paying any attention to the passengers. I was in mental stress and by bus also left. No body came for helping. Being a lady and because of my duty on 15.6.2019, I was under tension without any help. Both mentally and physically became tired & lost an amount of Rs.1984.50. I request you to look into the matter and compensate me suitably. My details : Mrs.Sakthi Ganesan, Joint Director, NSTI (R), Hyderabad Mobile : [protected], email : [protected]@yahoo.com. Expecting the proper action in this regard.

did not allow boarding resulting in huge monetary loss
Date of incident: 5th May 2019
Airport: Delhi, India
My ticket details: Booking ref - HP11RI Galileo and mount - 855 EUR
My wife's ticket details: e-ticket number - [protected] and amount - 28, 427.46 INR
My wife and I were traveling to Austria after getting newly married and my boarding pass was either stolen/ misplaced. The officers, instead of printing me a new boarding pass and supporting the situation, they just didn't allow us to board the flight causing a huge monetary loss and psychological discomfort.
We went to seek their help around 40 mins before the flight took off. However, they were quite lazy and slow in helping and when it was just 15 mins left for the flight to take off, they, in a impolite manner stopped us from getting on the flight.
I appeal for the monetary loss!

glaring tv monitors and non functional tv monitors
Ref: TRIP ID RTWUNQHI8J,
CONFIRMATION CODE: Y8TDB
Hello,
On Jun 7, I took flight 144 from EWR to BOM.
All the seats in the 1st cabin on the plane did not have any functional TV screens. In addition to that all the screens were lit up with white light and could not be turned off.
There was an uproar among all the passengers in the cabin since, there was no entertainment on a 15 hour flight and bright white light glaring from every seat. The pilot was summoned and we were informed that there was a malfunction which could not be fixed and we will be compensated for the inconvenience. Passengers had to use blankets and papers to cover up the screens but with no success.
Air India charges passengers for any amount of extra weight or for any service which is out of the normal functionality. On an international flight, basic functional entertainment equipment is expected of an airline. It is unfortunate that an airline which has been in a prominent name in aviation traffic for the longest time does not check its equipment on a flight of 15 hr. duration.
Having said that I would expect a partial refund of my cost of fare for all the discomfort and inconvenience experienced. This kind of service is highly unacceptable when I have paid a fare of USD $1, 705.83
Thank You

I booked an air ticket from delhi to ahmedabad on 7 june 2019
I booked a flight from delhi to ahmedabad. I had an interview call at iim ahmedabad and despite the valid ticket of 5 am in morning they never gave me board pass at 3:30 also. Despite so much fight and constantly complaining they just did not listen and harassed all the passengers. I couldn't attend my interview call now how will I get the opportunity. Who will take charge of it.
non functional business class seat!
Horrible flight experience! ( I am being kind by saying Horrible). My Seats never worked! Staff said wait till we reach mid-point (Vienna) DEL to VIE - seats won't recline and I was given a hard box as a footrest (Lol) for 10 hrs flight. AI changed my 10H Business seats to 9C, Not much of help as the seat will remain flat and never come in upright position except by manual help of two strong male flight attendants.
Imagine travelling 20 Hrs. with non-working seats, I asked them to give economy seats if they cannot fix it.
Good part: Air India staff their best to resolve problem but could not provide much comfort.
In addition media center had to be reset (20 min. wait) to semi-function, drinks (single malt) ran out. I wonder how and why AIR INDIA is in business ?
I paid full amount for business class, so I deserve decent service. I demand full refund for my 20 hrs. of suffering !
