The airline started the pilot phase of this service in partnership with luggage transfer company CarterX on its Delhi-Mumbai flights from March 13, said its spokesperson in a statement,
”Basis customer feedback and several other observations, we plan to progressively introduce this service in other markets as well. Hyderabad and Bangalore are already in the pipeline for phase 2 of rolling out this service,” the spokesperson added.

Under this service, the luggage is collected from the customers’ doorstep, every piece of luggage is sanitized and packed in double-layered, tamper-proof packing materials, the spokesperson mentioned. ”Every movement of the luggage is tracked and we ensure they are delivered to their final destination safely. Luggage pick-ups and deliveries are entirely contactless, the staff facilitating the transfer wear PPEs at all times, and the transport vehicles are duly sanitized,” the spokesperson added.
