As reported by the Hindustan Times, IndiGo designates certain seats as "XL," offering extra legroom or early deplaning privileges for the first-row seats. Prices which ranged from ₹ 150 to ₹ 1,500 have been revised and now range from ₹ 150 to ₹ 2000, an increase of 33% at the upper end.

The seat-selection charges for rows 2 and 3 on the Airbus fleet have decreased from Rs 450 to Rs 400. However, for rows 11 and 14 to 20 on the A320s, the charges for aisle, window, and even middle seats have risen from Rs 250 to Rs 400.

The airline earlier said it had waived the fuel charge on tickets. This comes three months after the airline introduced the levy in the wake of a surge in jet fuel prices. The fuel charge, which was introduced by the airline in early October 2023, has been removed with effect from January 4 this year.

“Comfort is the foremost priority for us. Hence, we offer reservation option for preferred seats to our passengers.

In case you don’t wish to purchase a preferred seat you can always select any free seat available or would be assigned a seat free of charge at the time of check-in at the airport,” the website of airlines goes on to add.
