The service is designed to enable time-conscious travellers who are otherwise not eligible for priority services to save time at on-ground touchpoints and breeze through airports.
Guests opting for the ‘ZipAhead’ service will be able to check-in at the airline’s dedicated Premium Economy check-in counters and enjoy priority baggage handling services. The service is currently available for departures from six Indian airports, namely, Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Bengaluru, and Kolkata.
‘ZipAhead’ is available for purchase up to 75 minutes before departure through Air India’s website, mobile app, airport ticketing offices (ATO), and customer contact centre.
