If your Air India flight was delayed, cancelled without enough notice, or you were bumped because of overbooking, you could be owed compensation.

Contact Air India directly for compensation

You can file a compensation claim directly with Air India through their customer relations form or email. However, you may experience:

• Multi-step paperwork that asks for receipts, boarding passes and baggage tags

• Dense legal language that can make it hard to tell what you’re really entitled to

• Automatic “no” notices, even when the airline clearly owes you money

• Lack of response or follow-up

AirHelp can help you get compensated for:

• Lost baggage – Up to approximately £1,550 per passenger

• Delayed baggage – Reimbursement for essential purchases

• Damaged baggage – Compensation for repairs or replacement

Why use AirHelp for baggage claims?

• We know exactly what documentation is required

• We handle negotiations with Air India
