Air India Fare Lock: It is everyone's dream to travel by air but due to the high cost of flight tickets, not everyone is able to fulfill this dream. However, now you should stop worrying about the high cost of flight tickets. We are saying this because Air India Express has launched a new 'Fare Lock' service, under which you can lock the ticket fare for 7 days for just ₹ 250 for domestic flights of your choice and ₹ 500 for international flights (New Fare Lock Scheme).
The advantage of this will be that even if the airfare increases later, you will still get the ticket at a nominal pre-decided fee.
How does the 'Fair Lock' service work?
This service is available only for bookings made through the Air India Express website and mobile app. The 'Fare Lock' fee for domestic flights is ₹250, while for international flights it is ₹500. This is a non-refundable fee.
The 'fare lock' period is 48 hours. Within this period, you must complete your booking and pay for the ticket. If you do not do so, the 'fare lock' will expire and you will have to buy the ticket again at the current rate.
Benefits of the 'Fair Lock' feature
If you plan your trip in advance, the 'Fare Lock' feature can help you get cheaper rates. This is especially useful for travelers who book tickets at the last minute, when ticket prices usually increase significantly. This can help you manage your travel budget better.
Special offers will be available on Air India Express website and app
Along with this, loyalty members get more discounts and new coins on booking by logging in from the Air India Express website and app. Students, senior citizens, small businessmen and Indian Army personnel also get concession in fares. Apart from this, Air India Express has also recently started Express Lite service, in which the ticket fare is reduced if you travel without check-in bags.
