In a recent move, IndiGo Airlines has implemented a revised seat selection pricing strategy, resulting in a wave of mixed reactions from passengers. The airline’s decision to charge passengers for specific seat choices has ignited discussions and garnered attention on social media platforms.
Since the announcement, the news has gained traction, accumulating 31,000 views on various microblogging websites. Users took to the platforms to express their opinions, with one user humorously commenting, “Another ‘strategy’ to get the passengers to pay for the actual ‘seat’? Sorry! But it is too ridiculous & funny.”
According to reports, IndiGo passengers now face additional charges for selecting specific seats during the booking process. One user highlighted the evolving nature of these charges, stating, “They now charge extra for every seat you select. Earlier it was only for window seats.”
Comparisons with other airlines, such as Ryanair, emerged in the online discussions. A user remarked, “@Ryanair has competition,” while another coined a playful term, “IndiGone Airlines,” suggesting a humorous take on the situation.
The news sparked sarcasm from some users, with one responding, “Yes, you bought a flight ticket, but did you ‘buy’ a seat? #Indigo has anyway given you a seatbelt for free, And you’re still complaining?!”
In a notable incident shared by a user, the discussion veered towards an unusual experience on an IndiGo flight involving a misplaced life jacket. The user recounted, “This reminds me, I was on an IndiGo flight recently and there was a life jacket on my seat. I checked under the seat, and it was not mine so told the cabin crew and they put it in the overhead bin. So perhaps one passenger didn’t have their assigned life jacket, for the flight.”
The introduction of the revised seat selection charges follows IndiGo’s recent announcement of fixed rates for specific seats. According to the new pricing structure, passengers opting for front-row seats with extra legroom on A321 aircraft will incur a fee of ₹2,000. Charges for window and aisle seats on the second and third rows, as well as other seat types, are set at a flat rate of ₹400.
The airline’s decision to implement seat selection charges has sparked diverse opinions, with passengers expressing a range of reactions online. As the news continues to circulate, it remains to be seen how travelers will adapt to the changes in IndiGo’s pricing strategy.
