Air India Cancellation policy

Summary

Under the DGCA 24-hour rule, tickets booked 7+ days before departure can be cancelled free within 24 hours of purchase. Beyond that, cancellation charges vary by fare family (Value, Classic, Flex) and are shown in the Fare Rules at booking rather than published as a flat fee; no-shows forfeit the ticket. Refunds typically take 7-10 business days.
