Airtel Rs 14,999 Postpaid IR Pack
Airtel's Rs 14,999 postpaid IR pack includes unlimited data—40GB of high-speed data, after which the speed is throttled to 80 Kbps. It also offers 3000 minutes of outgoing and incoming calls (both local and to India), free incoming SMS, 100 outgoing SMS, and a 365-day validity. International calls made while on roaming are charged at Rs 45 per minute.
In-Flight Benefits for Travellers
The Airtel postpaid IR pack also includes in-flight benefits: 250MB of data, 100 minutes of outgoing calls, and 100 outgoing SMS, all valid for 24 hours and applicable on 19 selected International airlines.
Previously, this pack offered 15GB of high-speed data. With this revision, Airtel has increased the high-speed data allowance to 40GB, while the unlimited usage beyond FUP remains available.
Roam Globally Without Manual Network Selection
The international roaming pack benefits are activated automatically upon arrival in the roaming destination. With one plan covering travel to 189 countries, customers no longer need to worry about choosing a specific pack for each country or region. There's also no need for separate packs for transit airports.
Another advantage of Airtel's IR offering is that customers do not need to manually select a network when landing abroad. The roaming pack is applicable across all operators in the supported countries. However, it should be noted that the pack benefits do not apply on maritime, ship, or satellite connections.
