New Delhi:18.10.2020
IndiGo passengers checking in at airport counters will now have to pay Rs 100 as convenience fee. The airline is the first Indian carrier to introduce such a fee to get more passengers to opt for web check-in as part of a nearcontactless travel experience.
With the country’s largest private airline in terms of domestic market share going down the fee way to discourage counter check-in, it is just a matter of time before most other carriers follow suit, civil aviation officials said.
“The check-in fee is applicable on all bookings, starting October 17. We are committed to take all precautionary measures for a contactless and hassle-free travel experience,” IndiGo said in a statement.

An air bubble will also become operational between India and Bangladesh from October 28. Five Indian and three Bangladesh carriers will link Delhi, Kolkata and Chennai with Dhaka.
