IndiGo has started a priority boarding facility for its passengers so that they can avoid longer queues at the boarding gates in airports.
"The customers can book this service on IndiGo website, mobile app or via the call centre during the booking process or add it later through My Bookings portal at a nominal cost of Rs 400 per passenger per flight," says a statement issued by the private carrier.

The service will be available on domestic travel between the metro cities initially and will be opened for the entire domestic network in a phased manner, says the largest airline of the country.
"The option (of priority boarding) will be available for a limited number of passengers per flight on a first-come-first-serve basis," it noted.
IndiGo's chief strategy and revenue officer Sanjay Kumar said the airline was always striving to enhance the travel experience for its customers.
