• Delhi (DEL) to Dubai (DXB): A short-haul international route connecting Delhi to Dubai, popular with business travellers and the large Indian expatriate community in the UAE.
• Mumbai (BOM) to Dubai (DXB): A financial capital to financial capital link, this route sees heavy traffic from corporate travellers, traders, and families visiting relatives across the Gulf.

• Delhi (DEL) to Bangkok (BKK): Connecting North India with Thailand's capital, this route is a popular choice for leisure travellers heading to Bangkok and beyond.
• Mumbai (BOM) to Bangkok (BKK): Linking India's financial capital with Thailand, this route serves both holidaymakers and the growing business travel corridor between the two countries.

Best Time to Book Flights from India

No matter the route, flight booking fares usually rise around Diwali, Christmas, and other major regional festivals. If you plan to travel during these periods and want to get the best airfare deals,   it’s best to book a little earlier than usual.

Domestic Routes

For domestic routes, it’s better to book flights four to six weeks in advance; that's often the sweet spot. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are usually more affordable than weekends, and fares from July through September can be more affordable because demand tends to be lower.

Gulf & Middle East Routes

For Gulf and Middle East routes, try to book six to eight weeks ahead. Demand often spikes during Eid, summer holidays, and the year-end travel season, so early booking matters more on these routes.

Southeast Asia Routes

For destinations like Singapore, Bangkok, and Kuala Lumpur, booking two to three months in advance usually works best. This is especially true if your travel falls around an Indian festival period, when demand rises quickly.

  Flight Ticket Booking

  .

• Step 8: Get Your Confirmation:

  Your PNR and e-ticket arrive by email and SMS almost immediately, ready for check-in whenever the window opens.

How to Complete Web Check-in for Your Flight

Web check-in opens 14 days before departure and closes 60 minutes prior, consistently across both domestic and international Air India Express flights.

• Step 1:

  Go to the Web Check-in page on the Air India Express website or app.

• Step 2:

  Enter your name, email, or mobile number.

• Step 3:

  Add your booking reference number or PNR. 

• Step 4:

  Choose your preferred seat, add any optional services at this stage, and save the boarding pass sent to your email or download it.

Note: Completing this step in advance means skipping the check-in counter entirely on travel day, which matters more at busier international terminals during peak season.

How to Check Flight Schedule on Air India Express

Follow the steps below to check your flight timing and the timetable for your chosen route:

• Step 1:

  Visit the Flight Schedule page on the Air India Express website or app.

• Step 2:

  Enter your origin and destination cities.

• Step 3:

  Click View Schedule to check all available flights, timings, and connection options instantly.

Note: Schedules get revised seasonally to reflect demand and operational changes, so it is worth checking again closer to your travel date, especially on Gulf and Southeast Asian routes that run via a connection.

How to Check Flight Status for Your Upcoming Flight

Check your flight status instantly before heading to the airport in a few simple steps:

• Step 1: 

  Open the Flight Status page on the Air India Express website or app. 

• Step 2: 

  Enter your origin, destination, or flight number.

• Step 3: 

  Click search, and the live status loads immediately with departure, arrival, and any delay information.

Worth Knowing: checking status matters most during the monsoon months of July to September on domestic routes, and around peak Gulf travel seasons when airport congestion can affect on-time performance.

Baggage Allowance for Domestic & International Flights

Every passenger, regardless of fare or route, gets 7 kg of cabin baggage as standard, covering one bag plus one personal item.

A few things worth knowing before you pack for any route:

• Cabin bag dimensions: 56 x 36 x 23 cm; personal item up to 40 x 30 x 10 cm
• The Xtra Carry-On option raises the Xpress Biz cabin allowance up to 12 kg
• Infants travelling without a seat get an additional baggage allowance on both domestic and international sectors
• Pre-booking excess baggage online works out to be more affordable than paying at the airport counter; confirm current rates at the time of booking
• Guests on connecting international itineraries should check the International Connection Baggage rules before travel

International Connections Baggage

If you are flying on an Air India Express domestic sector and that trip is part of a connection to or from an international airline, you can pre-book extra baggage before travel. Instead of paying at the airport later, you choose one of the prepaid options: 8 kg, 15 kg, or 30 kg; it is charged separately from the standard baggage allowance.

Cabin Classes & Onboard Experience

Air India Express flies mostly in an Economy configuration across its Boeing and Airbus fleet, with Xpress Biz available as a premium cabin on select Boeing 737-8 aircraft on both domestic and international routes.

Consider It: Xpress Biz is where Air India Express brings a genuine sense of luxury into the low-cost model, recliner comfort and priority handling at a fraction of a traditional business class fare, available on select domestic routes as well as international sectors.
