Flying can be a wonderful experience, but navigating airports can often be daunting. Recognizing this, Air India has launched 'Project Abhinandan' to make the journey smoother and more personalized for its passengers. This initiative has been rolled out at 16 major airports across India, including Pune.

'Project Abhinandan' is Air India's commitment to enhance the airport experience for its guests. Specially trained Service Assurance Officers are now stationed at these airports to provide on-ground assistance to Air India passengers. These officers are strategically placed at key touchpoints within the airport, such as check-in areas, lounges, boarding gates, transit areas, and the arrival hall.

These officers are trained to sense passenger concerns and engage proactively. Whether you need assistance, support, or troubleshooting, they are there to make your journey hassle-free. They can also handle unexpected situations like missed flights, delayed baggage delivery, and airport misconnections.

The 16 airports covered under 'Project Abhinandan' are Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Calicut, Chennai, Delhi, Goa, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai, Nagpur, Pune, Varanasi, and Vishakhapatnam.

Air India's Chief Customer Experience & Ground Handling Officer, Rajesh Dogra, emphasizes that 'Project Abhinandan' aims to simplify the airport experience for guests and make a meaningful difference in their overall travel experience. The goal is to create a welcoming and comfortable environment for passengers, regardless of their cabin class.

These Service Assurance Officers complement the existing Air India and ground handling agency staff at the airports. Air India has already recruited and deployed over 100 Service Assurance Officers across these airports.

So, the next time you fly with Air India from any of these 16 airports, you can expect a more personalized and hassle-free airport experience, thanks to 'Project Abhinandan.' Your journey is about to get a lot smoother and more enjoyable.
