IndiGo Increases Infant, Baggage, and Service Fees on Domestic FlightsPreviousNext

IndiGo has increased several fees on its domestic flights, including raising the infant travel charge from Rs 2,000 to Rs 3,000 for children aged over three days up to two years, who must travel on an adult's lap without a separate seat. Excess baggage fees have also risen from Rs 700 to Rs 800 per kilogram. The airline's unaccompanied minor service fee has been revised as well. These changes may raise travel costs for families and other passengers using additional services.
