Air India is the first airline in India and one of the few select airlines globally to offer direct, staff-free baggage tracking for passengers. You can easily track your checked-in bags by scanning the barcode on your baggage receipt or boarding pass. The mobile app provides real-time updates on key baggage details, including its current location, transit status, arrival information, and the local time of each event, all presented in a clear, user-friendly format. The tracking covers all critical baggage touchpoints—check-in, security clearance, aircraft loading, transfers, and arrival at the claim area. End-to-end baggage tracking is available across multiple flight segments on Air India, with extended tracking capabilities for interline connections with partner airlines as well.

4) Flight status with incoming aircraft information

You can effortlessly view the live flight status by scanning the QR code on your boarding pass or e-ticket, or by manually entering the flight details. You can also access flight status instantly from the ‘My Trips’ section with a single tap. The detailed view provides real-time updates on the flight’s status, the arrival of the incoming aircraft, and other key information including aircraft type. Additionally, you can select ‘Follow flight’ on the app to view the latest updates without needing to re-enter flight details. Once followed, the live flight status will be pinned to the app’s home screen for quick and convenient access.
