Can You Change Your Air India Flight?

Many Air India bookings can be modified, although the available options depend on your ticket type and fare conditions.

Eligible Bookings

Flight changes are generally available for eligible tickets booked directly with Air India. If your reservation was made through a travel agency or another booking provider, you’ll usually need to contact the original booking source to request changes.

Ticket Conditions

Your fare rules determine whether flight changes are permitted and whether change fees or fare differences apply. Air India offers multiple fare families with varying levels of flexibility, and modification charges depend on both the fare type and the time remaining before departure.

Factors Affecting Flight Changes

Several factors may affect your ability to modify your booking, including:

• Fare type
• Seat availability
• Route
• Time remaining before departure
• Booking source
