Special seats for women passengers on Air India

Air India has decided to reserve seats in an entire row, namely the third row, in Economy Class on its domestic flights for women passengers who wish to travel alone. These special seats will come at no extra cost. The details of the scheme are as follows :

• The third row of every aircraft will be kept reserved for women passengers who are travelling alone and have a single passenger booking. A woman passenger booked with a fellow woman passenger in a booking reference is also eligible for these seats.
• Women travelling with child will not be eligible for these seats. However those women travelling with infant can take these seats but without bassinets.
• These special seats can be taken up to 90 minutes before departure for domestic flights.

The scheme is not valid on Alliance Air and Air India’s code share flights. Air India is part of the Star Alliance frequent flyer airline network.
