How to Make Group Booking in India

Making a group booking in India involves a different process from booking individual tickets. Here is a complete guide for Indian travellers.

Step 1: Decide your group travel details

Confirm your route, travel date, number of passengers (minimum 10) and class of travel before submitting an inquiry.

Step 2: Choose your airline

  • For domestic routes: IndiGo, SpiceJet, Akasa Air or Air India.
  • For international routes: Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad, Saudia, Turkish Airlines, Air Arabia or others depending on your destination.

Step 3: Contact a group booking specialist

Group bookings cannot be made on airline websites. Contact us on +91 92500 06660 or use our group booking form. We submit fare requests to airline group desks.

Step 4: Evaluate the group fare quote

Compare the group fare total against buying 10 individual tickets. Group fares are typically cheaper AND more stable (won't increase after deposit).

Step 5: Pay the deposit and hold seats

A 25–40% deposit holds all seats. Without this, the airline will not block seats.

Step 6: Collect passenger details and submit names

Collect full names, dates of birth and travel document numbers. Submit by the airline's deadline (7–21 days before travel).

Step 7: Pay balance and collect tickets

Pay remaining amount, receive e-tickets for all passengers.

Best practices for group booking in India

  • Book early — 30–60 days for domestic, 60–90 days for international.
  • Lock in fares as early as possible — prices rise closer to departure.
  • Use one contact person for the entire group booking process.
  • Carry a copy of the group invoice — useful at airport check-in.

We had a group booking for 125 passengers from Bangalore to Rajkot and in return which consisted of both Air and Road transport arrangements. Airline Group had provided us 24/7 support to ensure the safety and security of our passengers during their journey. They were very accommodating when it comes to the travel bookings as well as in extending a helping hand during the time of crisis. We appreciate the concern & professionalism displayed by the team, especially, Mr. Yogesh & Ms. Nandini and wish them all good for the future endeavours.

We did a group booking for 53 passengers from Bangalore to Goa round trip. The company did an unbelievable job, right from negotiating and availing lowest airfares from GoAir.in and clearing all the doubts even the petty ones. Wishing God's blessings upon this company which has total dedication for a quality job and heartily wishing them for becoming more popular. Rev Fr David, Bangalore
