IndiGo introduces ‘Lite’ fare option for travelers with cabin baggage only; here’s what it entails.

IndiGo has launched a new economy class fare known as ‘IndiGo Lite’ for passengers traveling with only cabin baggage. The airline stated that this new offering aims to provide customers with greater flexibility and control by allowing them to pay solely for the services they require.

The fare option will be available for bookings on IndiGo’s official website, app, and contact center starting July 1, with travel commencing July 15. It will be offered on both domestic and international non-stop routes for one-way, round-trip, and multi-city journeys for adult and child travelers alike.

The Lite fare features a reduced base fare, an automatically assigned seat, and a cabin baggage allowance of up to 7 kg. Travelers can enhance their experience by adding optional services such as check-in baggage, preferred seating, meals, and priority services like Fast Forward.
These optional services can be purchased via IndiGo’s website or at the airport up to one hour prior to departure. Passengers opting for the Lite fare will still be able to earn and redeem IndiGo BluChip loyalty points.
