Understanding IndiGo’s Seating Layout
IndiGo operates a fleet primarily made up of Airbus A320, A320neo, A321, and ATR aircraft. Most of these planes follow an all-economy seating configuration, but not all seats are the same.

The aircraft cabin is divided into different seating zones:

·         Front-row seats

·         Window, middle, and aisle seats

·         Extra legroom seats

·         Emergency exit row seats

·         Standard economy seats

Each category offers a different level of comfort, accessibility, and pricing.


When Can You Choose a Seat on IndiGo?
IndiGo allows seat selection at multiple stages of your journey, giving passengers flexibility based on their plans.

1. During Flight Booking

The easiest time to choose your seat is while booking your ticket online through IndiGo’s website or mobile app. After entering passenger details, you’ll be shown a seat map where available seats can be selected.

2. After Booking (Manage Booking)

If you skipped seat selection while booking, you can still choose your seat later using the “Manage Booking” option. Simply enter your booking reference and last name to access the seat map.

3. During Web Check-in

IndiGo opens web check-in usually 24 hours before departure. During this time, you may be able to select from remaining available seats. Some seats may be free, while others may still carry a charge.

4. At the Airport Check-in Counter

If seats are still available, airport staff may assign you a seat during check-in. However, options are limited, and preferred seats may already be taken.


Types of Seats Available on IndiGo
Choosing the right seat depends on your comfort needs and travel style. Here’s a closer look at the seat options IndiGo offers.

Standard Seats

These are regular economy seats located throughout the cabin. They are suitable for short to medium flights and are usually the most affordable option.

Window Seats

Perfect for passengers who enjoy views during takeoff and landing or prefer leaning against the wall to rest.

Aisle Seats

Ideal for travelers who want easy access to the aisle, frequent restroom visits, or quick exit after landing.

Extra Legroom Seats

Located near emergency exits or bulkhead rows, these seats provide more space to stretch your legs. They are especially helpful for taller passengers or long-haul domestic routes.

Front Row Seats

These seats allow faster boarding and deplaning and are often quieter, as they are away from the engine noise.


Seat Selection Charges on IndiGo
IndiGo follows a low-cost carrier model, meaning seat selection may come with an additional fee. Charges depend on factors such as:

·         Route and distance

·         Seat type (standard vs. extra legroom)

·         Time of selection (early selection may offer more choices)

Standard seats usually cost less, while extra legroom and front-row seats cost more. Prices can vary, so it’s best to check during booking.


Free Seat Allocation: Is It Possible?
Yes, free seat allocation is possible in certain cases:

·         If you do not select a seat, IndiGo automatically assigns one during check-in.

·         Some seats during web check-in may be available at no extra cost.

·         Infants traveling with adults and passengers with special needs may be seated together without additional charges.

However, free seats are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed.


Seat Selection for Families and Groups
Traveling with family or friends? IndiGo allows you to select adjacent seats during booking, making it easier for groups to sit together. If you skip seat selection, the airline usually tries to seat passengers on the same booking together, but this is not guaranteed during peak travel times.

To avoid separation, it’s best to select seats in advance, especially for families traveling with children.


Seat Selection for Passengers with Special Needs
IndiGo offers assistance for passengers with reduced mobility, medical conditions, or other special requirements. Such passengers are usually seated in suitable locations that allow easy access and comfort.

Emergency exit row seats are not assigned to passengers who may not be able to assist in an evacuation, such as elderly travelers, passengers with disabilities, or those traveling with infants.


How to Change Your Seat on IndiGo
Plans change, and so can your seat. IndiGo allows seat changes before departure, depending on availability.

You can change your seat by:

·         Logging into the “Manage Booking” section

·         Visiting the IndiGo app

·         Requesting assistance at the airport (subject to availability)

Additional charges may apply if you switch to a higher-priced seat.

·         Book early: Early booking gives you access to more seat choices.

·         Check aircraft type: Seat layout can vary by aircraft model.

What Happens If You Don’t Select a Seat?
