My wife and son travelled from Bangalore to Dubai (Ref: LRH6CT). At Bangalore, they were issued boarding pass only upto Hyderabad. At Hyderabad, my son was refused boarding pass to Dubai stating that " OK to board" is not available. He was out o[censored]AE for more than 8 months. I paid the penalty and they were having copy of NOC from the Dubai Immigration.
When I wife called from Hyderabad, I wanted to get the correct information or requirement. The staff at Hyderabad were simply saying that "ok to board" is required. I called the call center and explained that my son was having valid resident visa and copy of NOC. From call center, they were telling that OK to board is not required if he is having valid visa. Hyderabad staff not giving clear information from whom I need to get clearance. One staff is telling, Immigration another staff is telling to get clearance from counter at airport.
Office at Dubai Termianl-1 is locked. Luckily , one staff came to get something from office and rudely directed me to go to airlines office located elsewhere.
My complaint is, your customer care staff are not clear of the procedures and they are unable to guide me properly. Airport staff are not ready to listen or explain anything to the passenger or not even ready to talk to their own customer care staff.
If they have objection at Bangalore, why they did not tell them? Booking reference from Bangalore to Dubai is same. Why they allowed to travel to Hyderabad and objected Boarding pass to Dubai? Why the passenger has to collect the luggage at Hyederabad and recheck in for Dubai?
I received a standard formatted reply for my complaint with Indigo website stating that their staff will be trained to be polite. But none of my queries were answered. The following was their reply
