IndiGo airlines - paying abroad

I want book a flight on IndiGo Airlines between Delhi and Kolkata but won't let me as you need an Indian credit card. Does anybody know anyway around getting these tickets booked, I live in the UK.

thanks in advance..

IndiGo does not accept international credit card at the moment. You can call the numbers below to see if you can make any other arrangements like, international money order, wire transfer or something. If not, then book the ticket once you are in India.

09910383838
or
18001803838

Let me know what happens!

had the same problem a couple of months ago. i called their number from the states and was told that the only way possible was to use an indian card or have a travel agent in india buy them for me. you could try some of the travel sites like yatra.com (they do show the same indigo fares that you get on the indigo website) and see if they accept international cards.

FYI to get the fares quoted on yatra, etc., you have to be an Indian resident and show proof of it. If you have a tourist visa you will have to pay the fare in dollars.
