Reduced baggage allowance on IndiGo
 
Hi all,
I'll be visiting india with my family in August, and am in the process of making my internal travel plans. I started to look into a round trip I'll need between
Delhi and Goa today, and found a good set of flights on IndiGo at what seemed to be a reasonable price. I then discovered that they just dropped the free baggage allowance from 20 to 15kg (literally several hours before I started looking :( ). After then reading up on this a bit, I saw that jet had done the same thing a few weeks back, but has now increased it again to 20kg. The indigo flight timings and price are better for me than the competitors (And I really liked their product the last time I was in India), but I'm very likely to have heavy bags since I'm on a long international trip and factoring in the extra baggage fees could change the value equation for me. Any guesses on whether IndiGo will back off in the future like Jet? Im wondering if I should wait before buying or buy and hope they change the policy later...

I would be very surprised if 6E increased baggage allowance. If you need 20 kgs, book 9W or AI.

i don't think the policy will change again....indigo is pretty strict with bags as well so either make sure your bags are under 15kg or you will have to pay excess luggage....

I was afraid of that. Thanks for the info!
