Air India Interline Baggage Agreement

The codeshare agreement exists with Air India Express, Turkish Airlines, Ethiopian Airways, Egypt Air, Lufthansa, Air Mauritius, Singapore Airlines, South African Airways, Asiana, Austrian Airlines, Swiss International Airlines and Kuwait Airways.Air Astana is a new codeshare partner. In the cases listed below where more than one Ticket is presented, Delta will continue to check baggage from the point of departure to the destination. Delta Policy: Delta will check baggage from ATL to LAX via NRT. Yes, Star Alliance is what makes it easier for them in addition to the interline agreement. I think Air India is extremely unreasonable. Because on their website it is clear that students traveling with a student visa can “take 1 extra piece for free to points in Europe via Frankfurt/Paris/Rome/Milan (subject to line spacing on non-stop published fares along the way) (max. weight 23 kg). Delta Policy: Delta will only check in baggage for the ATL flight to LAX. Upon arrival of the flight at LAX, the passenger must collect the baggage at Delta Baggage Claim and then check it in with the downstream airline for the next LAX flight to NRT.

But I`m just worried because when I called Air India, they told me that extra luggage is only valid until Frankfurt. And when I called Lufthansa, they told me that if I got a check-in in transit to Warsaw, they had no problem with the extra luggage. And yes, all three airlines are members of Star Alliance and Lufthansa is also an interline partner of Air India. And according to the terms and conditions, it is also stated: “An additional baggage allowance applies to travel from points online to points inside the United Kingdom / United States / Europe, provided that it is a single ticket”. Delta recommends creating a single ticket instead of split tickets as a general best practice to ensure delta is able to check in baggage to a passenger`s final destination. I am travelling from Chennai to Warsaw on September 1st. The route is Chennai – Delhi – Frankfurt – Warsaw. Chennai to Delhi and Delhi to Frankfurt are flights operated by Air India. The Frankfurt to Warsaw flight is a Lufthansa flight operated by LOT Polish Airlines in codeshare. I believe Air India and Lufthansa are interline partners and my flight from Frankfurt to Warsaw is an LH flight. My question is: do I receive a transit cheque for Warsaw? I want a direct recording mainly for several reasons.

I have a very short stopover in Frankfurt (about an hour) and the free baggage allowance for me would be 2 pieces in Air India as I am travelling on a student visa. But Lufthansa does not offer such offers to students traveling from India to Europe. But according to the information I found on the air India website, it says: “Free 1 extra piece to European hubs via Frankfurt/Paris/Rome/Milan (Subject to line spacing on non-stop published fares on the way) (maximum weight 23kgs).” I travel through Frankfurt and there are no stopovers along the way and I believe Lufthansa and LOT Polish are interline partners of Air India. Basically, I want to know if I can get direct check-in and if I don`t get direct check-in, do I have to pay for the extra luggage in Frankfurt for the flight from Frankfurt to Warsaw? You`ll need to check the website of each operating airline if you want to get a seat in advance, but if you check in at the airport on your first Air India flight, you need to get all your boarding passes If you have a ticket with an e-ticket number that covers all three flights, it would be normal to check in the baggage. In this case, it is common for all three airlines participating in Star Alliance, as the per ticket is possible. When I called Air India`s call centre, they told me that this rule applied to flights operated by Air India. This makes absolutely no sense as there are literally no Air India flights (purely Air India, no codeshare or interline partner airlines) departing from Frankfurt/Paris/Rome/Milan. Delta checks a passenger`s baggage between departure and destination airports, which is issued exclusively on an individual or connected ticket*. If delta is issued on a ticket, it will continue to check in baggage to the ticket destination for interline routes. If a second ticket is presented for travel, Delta will only check in baggage to the destination of the Delta ticket. Baggage can be collected at the destination of the Delta ticket and then checked in again by the customer on the downlink for the next flight.

* A single ticket also means a connective (i.e. connective) ticket. Connected tickets are in continuous number on the same ticket inventory. It is not possible to connect tickets from different airlines. If different tickets had been booked with Air India, the airline would have charged a fee. However, if the booked ticket was for Air India`s connecting flight, it would not have been charged. Air India became a member of Star Alliance in July 2014. If a travel agent issues a multi-ticket itinerary, the issuing agency: I`ve heard that Air India flights are rarely on time, so you can be put on the next available flight if there are delays, and you should be able to take both air India baggage to codeshare partner airlines that allow it to: achieve various goals around the world in a more in-depth and comprehensive manner.

We hope you`ll get involved in the conversation by posting on an open topic or starting a new one. What should I do if Air India refuses direct check-in? First of all, is it a separate ticket or separate tickets? Secondly, although you booked this on the LH website, the flight is operated by LOT and it is their rules that you need to look into. Codeshare operations have been suspended due to COVID-19 and operations will not resume until official orders are issued. Any information on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Thank you:) Hello, thank you very much for your answers. Yes, it is under a ticket, a PNR and the document is issued by Air India. *1 – Monday, 2 – Tuesday, 3 – Wednesday, 4 – Thursday, 5 – Friday, 6 – Saturday, 7 – Sunday some codeshare flights are only available for international online traffic In addition, there are codeshare gateways on some routes and partner airlines for these routes.
