Air India Express introduces ‘Biz’ Class for guests on all new aircraft

Air India Express introduces its new fare family, with four fare products: Xpress Lite (cabin baggage only fares), Xpress Value (15 kg check-in bag fares), Xpress Flex (unlimited changes with no change fees), and Xpress Biz (business class seating with complimentary Gourmair meals and priority services). With the launch of this service, travellers now have the option to personalise their trip aligning with “Fly As You Are”– our promise to make travel more convenient for passengers.

Xpress Biz fares are available on all the new Air India Express Boeing 737-8 aircraft, as a Business Class equivalent that disrupts the traditional LCC model with a hybrid offering. Biz Seats offer an enhanced travel experience with plush, recliner seats with a seat pitch of up to 58 inches and no middle seats in this cabin class. In the process of its rapid fleet expansion, the airline is inducting nearly 4 new aircraft every month with the Biz configuration, with approximately 4 to 8 Biz seats in each aircraft.

Guests can enjoy increased baggage allowances of 25kg for domestic flights and 40kg for international flights when booking Xpress Biz fares. Xpress Biz guests can also choose from a delectable selection of Gourmair hot meals or Lite Bites on short sectors and enjoy complimentary Xpress Ahead priority check-in, baggage, and boarding services.  Air India Express is already operating aircraft with Biz seats across 70+ routes in India, connecting metro cities with other key destinations such as:
