### 2/5 — AI app

*2026-08-25, version 22.2*

Even after signing in with the Maharaja club FFN, the app asks for the FFN in the final steps. So the booking is lost while you retrieve the FFN
App experience can be improved

### 2/5 — Seat selection

*2026-08-15, version 22.2*

Adjacent seat selection not available while check in for two passengers booked together

### 3/5 — AI lost my sign in info

*2026-08-14, version 22.2*

I always Travel by Air India, but each time I come back to the website, I have trouble signing in.

### 4/5 — Change seat options but they again charging me when I try to change the seat which I already pay for

*2026-08-10, version 22.1*

You have so many seat available if family members traveling together you must offer two free seats next to each other. I pay for it, but I’m trying to change your seat because you have so many available. I’m trying to book it at the front dial now and you charge me again which is not fair.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-08-07, version 22.0*

Will never fly again with air India..I have been scammed with wrong pricing and non application of my points

### 1/5 — Seat payment doesn’t work

*2026-08-05, version 22.0*

Tried multiple payment methods all fail

### 3/5 — Detail details forgotten and have to be re-entered every single time

*2026-08-02, version 22.0*

It’s easy to book a flight and nicely streamlined, but every single time the personal details are completely forgotten and have to be reentered  which is crazy. Absolutely nothing is remembered between bookings.

### 1/5 — No boarding pass

*2026-07-31, version 22.0*

I can’t see it

### 1/5 — App

*2026-07-30, version 22.0*

I bought few times tickets and never received the points and any other benefits whatsoever. What’s point to download app and sowing lots of perk  which you can not have….

### 2/5 — Wouldn’t recommend

*2026-07-29, version 22.0*

I only flew Air India because of the instability in the Middle East leaving me with very limited options. Unfortunately, I won’t be making that mistake again.

The cabin crew were largely absent throughout the flight and, when they were around, came across as quite rude and uninterested. Disappointingly, the ground staff at the airport were even worse, with customer service well below what I would expect from an international airline.

The aircraft itself felt old and dated, and the onboard technology barely worked. The overall experience lacked the level of service, comfort and reliability you’d expect on a long-haul journey.

If you have other options available, I’d strongly recommend taking them.

### 1/5 — New App version needs improvement

*2026-07-27, version 22.0*

My trips section, I see the trip I booked. Expected it would have all the information. It does not show baggage allowance or seat number or special meals.

### 1/5 — Baggage

*2026-07-26, version 22.0*

I m totally not satisfied with air India as they do don’t treat economy passengers with respect compared to business class, me and one of the business class passenger got late for baggage check in and at the counter I was refused to checked in my baggage as I was late so I decided to leave my luggage with friend and board the flight without luggage, after when I came in flight I found out the same business class passenger luggage was checked in in the same flight as I spoke to him. So this is not acceptable, just to let u know air India should treat all there passengers equally.
Can some one please help me here to get my luggage back from london.

### 1/5 — Thief

*2026-08-26, version 22.2*

You ripped me for 20 k inr for upgrade link without giving baggage allowance and tell me that it is fine print. Main features should not be in fine print. Theft

### 1/5 — Poor communication

*2026-08-25, version 22.2*

The payment site crashed and I got a call asking to pay via the Amadeus platform. I did and have still not received a booking reference and confirmation. The AI chat account is useless.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2026-08-25, version 22.2*

Keyboard doesn’t work in iOS when trying to pay. Literally the worst.

### 1/5 — The ABSOLUTE worst

*2026-08-18, version 22.2*

This is a disgusting, terrible, joke of an airline.

I booked Chicago to Bangkok through Air India and all flights were operated by Air India themselves. They then cancelled and “rebooked” my itinerary 4 separate times.

- 1st time: fine whatever, longer trip but okay
- 2nd time: same thing as the first time, but I got over it
- 3rd time: now have me a ZERO MINUTE connection at JFK and had no answer as to what do to
- 4th time: trip is now four flights, compared to the original two, and my fly from JFK takes of a day before I get there - nice, makes sense

I have been in contact when them for weeks trying to get an itinerary from Chicago to Bangkok, but they now tell me they can ONLY GET ME FROM JFK TO BKK. Knowing all well that I paid for an entire trip from Chicago. They have offered nothing in return for the disgusting amount of involuntary changes and the ruining of my itinerary.

Will NEVER even consider this joke of an airline and I will be passing this on to everybody I know.

### 1/5 — Pathetic

### 1/5 — Promo Codes Don’t Work

*2026-08-15, version 22.2*

Promo codes don’t work

### 1/5 — Wasted time with repetition

*2026-08-15, version 22.2*

When trying to  upgrade,App asks for booking reference, and then further details about name, date of travel, class travelling, etc, whereas it should get all information from booking reference
