For ATR planes, the seat selection charge is now up to ₹500.

Details about changes in charges for selecting seats in other rows were not immediately available.

Last week, IndiGo removed the fuel charge that was previously applied to tickets, resulting in potential airfare reductions of up to ₹1,000 on specific long routes.

The airline had introduced the fuel charge on all domestic and international tickets starting October 6, 2023, as a response to rising jet fuel prices. The fuel charge ranged from ₹300 to ₹1,000, depending on the distance.
