The price of the Air India Economy Class Comfort brand (BOM to DEL) one-way ticket starts at Rs.5363 which includes complimentary meals and free check-in luggage of 15 kg. While the same ticket with Comfort Plus brand costs ₹525 extra, and comes with the same luggage limit of 15 kg. However, it does come with no change fee till 72 Hours.

The Flex brand of Economy for the same destination costs Rs.6938 and comes with a 10 Kg extra baggage allowance & zero cancel & refund fees till 72 hours. So if you are planning to travel from Air India and have more luggage needs, it might be worth investing in the Economy Flex brand ticket.

You may use Air India coupons & offers to reduce the price of your ticket.
