[Resolved]  Indigo Airlines — Excess baggage charge: extortion

Dear IndiGo; I am flying from Chandigarh to New Delhi now; 31/05/2022 at 0705
Flight no: 6E 6736
PNR: QUNHUE

I am flying further from New Delhi to London Heathrow and as expected I have baggage allowance of 23 times two kilos to check in for my international flight. Keeping this in mind I tried to book excess baggage as the allowed baggage with my booking with IndiGo, from Chandigarh to New Delhi was 15 kgs; the website said: Not allowed for this leg!
On bags drop I had to pay an extortion charges of Rs9900 for my baggage for. O fault of mine; I did mention and showed the concerned person the picture that I had taken which showed I want allowed to book excess baggage on the IndiGo website
Kindly refund the extortion charges and I should be allowed to pay the regular excess baggage charge

Dear Sir,

We have to get this checked. Please know you were not able to book excess baggage as it can be booked 6 hrs prior to the journey. Further, for international connecting baggage allowance passengers' international flight should be within 24 hrs of the domestic flight.

We'll request your understanding here.

Regards,
Team IndiGo
