Air India: common questions
Does Air India charge for checked bags?
Air India includes at least one checked bag on all fares. Our results show the exact allowance for the fare you choose.
Can I bring a carry-on on Air India's cheapest fare?
Yes. Air India's Economy Comfort fare includes a personal item and a full-size carry-on bag, but seat selection costs extra and the fare cannot be changed.

How do I check in for a Air India flight?
Check in online or in the Air India app from 24 hours before departure using the airline confirmation code on your Air1 Tickets e-ticket. Your Air1 reference is for managing the booking with us; the airline code (six characters) is what Air India needs.
