IndiGo Launches Airport Cab Service Starting at ₹49 Across India, Expands Beyond Air Travel
India’s largest airline, IndiGo has launched “Cabs with IndiGo”, a dedicated airport transfer service aimed at providing passengers with a seamless travel experience from their doorstep to the airport and back.
The new service, introduced in partnership with travel-tech company Mojoboxx, allows passengers to pre-book airport cabs directly through IndiGo’s website and mobile app while booking their flights. The move is part of the airline’s broader strategy to evolve from a low-cost carrier into a comprehensive travel platform.
With the launch, IndiGo is targeting a share of India’s rapidly growing taxi market while addressing common concerns faced by air travellers, including surge pricing, last-minute driver cancellations, and uncertainty around airport pick-ups and drop-offs.
According to the airline, passengers can reserve a cab by paying a booking fee starting from ₹49. The service offers fixed and transparent fares, ensuring travellers do not face surge pricing during peak travel periods.
IndiGo has also promised 100 percent confirmed vehicle allocation for airport transfers. Customers can cancel bookings free of charge up to the scheduled pick-up time, while drivers will wait for up to 30 minutes at no extra cost to accommodate flight delays and baggage collection.
The airport cab service is integrated with IndiGo’s BluChip loyalty programme. Members will earn five BluChips for every ₹100 spent on airport transfers, allowing frequent flyers to accumulate rewards beyond flight bookings.
Speaking about the launch, IndiGo’s Chief Digital and Information Officer, Neetan Chopra, said the airline’s goal is to offer customers a complete travel experience through a single platform. The company has partnered with multiple cab operators to support the service across major airports in the country.
The launch adds to IndiGo’s growing portfolio of non-airline services, which already includes access to more than 700,000 hotel stays and curated sightseeing experiences. By bringing airport transfers into its ecosystem, the airline aims to keep travellers engaged throughout their entire journey.
