Airlines Complaints
Indian Airlines Industry has recently become one of the fastest-growing airlines industries in the world. They generate a huge amount of income and employment. There are about 450 airports and more than 1000 registered aircrafts in India today. The most common Airlines in India are Indigo, AirIndia, GoAir, Spicejet, JetAirways etc.The most common airline complaints in 2019 was lost baggage. According to a recent survey, an average of 1 in 150 people have their checked baggage lost or left behind every year. The other common airline complaints include, promised refund not given, ticket/flight cancelled without prior knowledge, rude staff behaviour etc. So what can be done to resolve these complaints? All these airlines have a 24*7 customer care number who are always willing to help the customer. The customer care no. Of some of top airlines in India are :
Indigo Customer Care No. - 0124 617 3838
GoAir Customer Care No. - 1860 210 0999
AirIndia Customer Care No. - 1860 233 1407
SpiceJet Customer Care No. - 096540 03333
Jet Airwarys Customer Care No. - 080 3924 3333
AirAsia Customer Care No. - 080 4666 2222
Vistara Customer Care No. - 092892 28888
JetLife Customer Care No. - 1800 22 5522
AirCosta Customer Care No. - 1800-4250-0666
Moreover there are other steps which can be taken, however, the first point of contact should be the airlines itself. Customer satisfaction is as important to airlines as it to other businesses. The airlines have alloted separate ticket desks, lounges and baggage claim sections to help the consumers. If this dosen’t solve the problem then the consumer should file a written complaint to the airline. This will act as a proof that you did something from your side in later stages and moreover put pressure on the airlines. However if the Airlines is not willing to help or acting aloof at any stage then the consumer can file a complaint with a Government Agency that oversees air travel. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is the governming body overseeing air travel in India. However if the consumer is still left stranded with no where else to go then the consumers can always file a consumer complaint at Voxya. We at Voxya, generally receive about 1000s of complaint related to these Airlines in a month. So how do we actually resolve these airline complaints? We start a social media campaign and then send a email to the company to resolve the complaint amicably. Moreover if strict actions need to be taken then we draft a legal notice and send it to the concerned airline.
