Airtel is now offering Disney+ Hotstar VIP, ZEE5, and Xstream Premium subscription for 1 year at Rs 1699 with new Airtel Xstream set-top box connections.

Xstream Basic combo allows the customer to buy the Rs 1699 combo which is available on both new connections for non-Airtel users as well as for those using the Airtel Xstream Thanks Offer which offers the same combo at the same price.

The new connection price rises upto Rs 5299 and Rs 3948 for new Airtel Xstream Box and Airtel Xstream Thanks offer respectively keeping the additional monthly charge separate.

Xstream Premium combo comes packed with a 1-year subscription to Amazon Prime apart from offering Airtel Xstream Premium, ZEE5, and Disney+ Hotstar VIP subscription for 1 year. The bundle costs Rs 2399 which takes up the cost of your new Airtel Xstream Box connection up to Rs 5999.

The bundle carrying Amazon Prime is currently seemingly only limited to connections bought with Xstream Premium. The listings for Airtel Xstream Thanks offer are currently not showcasing any option to take Amazon Prime.

The base price of the new Airtel Xstream Box connection is now set at Rs 3600 with Airtel now offering 7 days preview of Airtel’s Rs 462 HD package.

Airtel now offering only 1 month of Airtel Xstream Premium subscription free with new Airtel Xstream Box connection

Airtel has also revamped the finer details of its new Airtel Xstream Box connection. Almost 1 month back, Airtel had reduced complimentary benefits with new connections to only 3 months of subscription Airtel Xstream Premium. The same has now been further reduced to a 1-month subscription of Airtel Xstream Premium.

When Airtel Xstream Box was initially launched in 2019 Airtel back then offered 1 year of subscription to Airtel Xstream App and ZEE5. This was cut down to 3 months of subscription to Airtel Xstream App and ZEE5 in July before the subsequent changes in September and now.

Airtel however recently offered 1 year Airtel Xstream Premium Plan subscription to its existing DTH customers with messages sent out to customers informing about the successful activation for 365 days.
