When 10 or more passengers travel together on the same flight, airlines classify this as a group booking. Instead of charging each traveler separately, airlines like Air India offer special group fares. These fares are designed to simplify large-scale bookings, lock in affordable pricing, and provide added flexibility.
For travelers, this means smoother coordination and cost savings. For organizers, it means having the entire group under a single booking reference, making changes, check-ins, and updates more convenient.
Air India defines group bookings with minimum requirements based on travel class:
Children are counted as full passengers for group eligibility, and infants with their own seats are treated as children.
These thresholds ensure that your booking qualifies as a group, unlocking the special pricing and policies designed for bulk reservations.
Booking group fares through AirlinesGroupBooking provides several distinct advantages:
1. Locked-In Pricing
Avoid price fluctuations by securing fares for the entire group in advance.
2. Simplified Coordination
One booking reference covers the whole group, saving time during check-in and flight management.
3. Flexible Payment Options
Partial deposit payments are allowed, with the balance payable later before ticket issuance.
4. Seating Together
The group is prioritized for seating close together whenever possible.
5. Change and Cancellation Flexibility
Name corrections, substitutions, or adjustments can often be made within deadlines.
6. Dedicated Support
With AirlinesGroupBooking, you receive personalized assistance before, during, and after the journey.
