Losing baggage while traveling abroad can be a nightmare, turning an exciting trip into a stressful ordeal. To address this concern, Vodafone Idea (Vi) has introduced a baggage protection service for its postpaid international roaming customers in partnership with US-based Blue Ribbon Bags. For an additional ₹99, Vi users can now claim compensation of ₹19,800 per bag if their luggage is lost or delayed beyond 96 hours.
With international travel on the rise, baggage mishandling remains a pressing issue. A 2024 SITA report revealed that over 36 million bags were mishandled worldwide. Vi’s new initiative offers peace of mind, ensuring travelers have a safety net in case of lost or delayed baggage. Customers can activate this service while purchasing their international roaming pack and register with Blue Ribbon Bags before their flight. If baggage is not recovered within four days, compensation is processed with no questions asked.
Vi’s International Roaming packs also provide unlimited data and calls across 29 countries, incoming call benefits in 122+ nations, and 24/7 WhatsApp support, reinforcing its commitment to hassle-free global connectivity.
