Qatar Airlines

Has anyone traveled by Qatar- Indigo from US to India? Are there any delays/issues when you have to travel by indigo between Mumbai and Dubai? All emirates costs $1500+ and emirates indigo costs $1200. Is it worth taking the risk for $300?

Purchase a travel insurance. If your flight gets delayed you can always get the money back

You mean emirates doesn’t put you on another flight? They have code share with Indigo , right?

You will need to clear up with them. I think in case where your flight gets delayed and you miss the Indigo flight then Qatar is responsible to solve the goofup. That’s too much of pain if you ask as in some cases it will prolong your halt or denied service and you will have to book another flight (however it’s unlikely for the later to happen) Having a travel insurance specifically helps you secure your money (flight tickets/baggage mess/hotels in some cases and meals) and I wouldn’t mind putting another $100 since you are already saving some cash

I travelled in Aug. Flight was on time but indigo was the worst flight. The legspace is very limited and I literally stand during the whole journey

Agree with this comment.. I traveled to Hyderabad and the leg room is pretty cramped up

Affine Saavdhan OP Oct 23, 2022

I am more concerned about not missing the connecting flight

Why you guys keep going through Dubai route. I haven't had good experience with Emirates, when I travelled with them 3 times in last 10 years. Choose Delta, British Airways, they are far better.

Affine Saavdhan OP Oct 23, 2022

British economy price is like Qatars business. And I have read negative reviews for British. Delta, food won’t be good I guess. Qatar is one of the best airways . Only thing i hate is 16 hour flight between Qatar and US instead of 10-12 through Europe

Worst airlines including good British n delta

Is it the same PNR number? If yes, then it’s not your headache. If they delay, it’s the airlines’ responsibility to book you in the next flight

I avoid multiple airlines and third party sites for buying flight tickets. It would be easy to deal if you buy from Qatar website in case of delays/cancellations.

I traveled a month ago via qatar ( qatar+indigo) no issues

How much did you guys pay for the ticket?

Veeva .comboom Oct 24, 2022

1100-1500 is new normal

I travelled few days ago from Sharjah to Qatar via Qatar airways. Prices are high right now due to World Cup and Formula 1 in Abu Dhabi

Try to buy it on the same ticket directly from an airline, in case of delays, they'll re-route you or give you a hotel. if two different tickets, they won't care about delays
