Everything about your Star Air (S5) boarding pass: how to get it, re-download a lost one, mobile vs printed, and airport timings.
Verified June 2026Re-run web check-in on starair.in to retrieve the e-Boarding Permit again, or get it at the airport counter (counters open 2 hours and close 60 minutes before departure).
Star Air does not publish a specific mobile-vs-printed rule; carry the e-Boarding Permit plus a BCAS-approved photo ID.
A mobile (digital) boarding pass is accepted at Indian airports by the airlines that issue one — there is no official rule requiring a printout, and Delhi Airport markets fully paperless domestic travel. That said, carry a valid government photo ID at all times (it is checked at terminal entry alongside your boarding pass or ticket), and for international departures most airlines still verify your travel documents at the counter before issuing the final pass.
Star Air does not publish an airport counter check-in fee.
Counters open 2 hours and close 60 minutes before departure; boarding gates close 25 minutes before departure (web-checked-in passengers should be at the gate 30 minutes prior). A gate no-show forfeits the fare, though taxes remain refundable.
Star Air is a domestic regional carrier (Embraer fleet) and does not operate international flights.

DigiYatra works with any airline at 38 Indian airports, including for Star Air flights — it reads your face instead of checking documents at three checkpoints. DigiYatra is the free, optional facial-recognition system at 38 Indian airports (including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata and Navi Mumbai). You enrol once with Aadhaar, but you must upload your boarding pass for every flight and share it with the departure airport (the e-gate scans the boarding-pass QR first, then your face). It is domestic-only — international departures are still on the roadmap — and passengers travelling with infants cannot use it. Even DigiYatra users should carry a physical government photo ID.
