Well it is always good to know If some airlines uses new aircraft to India. I have had very bad experiences when I fly from US to India that till I reach either Singapore , HongKong or KL they use very good planes and the services are usually excellent. But then to the India sector it gets really read more...

Well I do not know where to start. But Madras (chennai) is not even in my list as a city to live unless I have no choice. I am from Bangalore but it has got nothing to do with it.

This is a nice informative article. But I am not sure how anybody can live in a place where everything is censored and women have no rights at all. If a person's motivation is to just make money then it is fine. I would rather stay in a country where I am free to do anything I want

I am not sure whether this review is about the airline itself or about Indians. I think we need to seperate this. If it is about the airline then I cannot say much since I have not travelled on this airline. But I have heard that it is pretty good but sometimes individual experiences can be bad read more...

I know we Indians abroad still crave for our lovely National Carrier Air-India. I am also amazed to see the lovely ads in USA for Air-India. But your experience is truly humilating for a person. I admire you that you still have your senses in one piece. About 4 months ago the same thing happen read more...

Actually you forgot to mention that Bangalore is the best in the world and that is why so many people love to hate it. Yes traffic is a nightmare, sanitation is bad, power cuts are frequent. But that is the charm. If everything is so good then it becomes very boring. This is from a person who read more...

You have said everything perfectly that there is nothing more to say. In fact I congratulate you that you are still in good humor to write this after this ordeal. Avoid Air India If you can at all costs till they deliver on some basic services.

Well I have never had any problems with Blore airport even with regards to trolleys and absense of authorities. I landed from KL to BLR close to midnight and there was plenty of trolleys and helpful staff. In fact I found the airport better organized than Hyderabad and Madras which I visited 10 da read more...

Man, Let me tell you my friend something. I am a born and bred Kannadiga. I do not care whether Tamils make up 50% of Blore or not since Kannadigas are very tolerant.

OK, If mine is a weak argument then the proper thing to do is to protest to the airline. If you think that Jet is not responding to you then do a huge favour by not flying on it. Nobody is forcing you to fly Jet Airways. You are being absurd here by making baseless allegations that Jet ow read more...
My friend. Maybe KLIA is the first Intl airport you have seen. Other than being clean and new there is nothing else there which can be compared to other world class airports such as in Singapore, Hongkong and Seoul. The airport is clean and nice but the facilities are less than friendly. First read more...
I do not undertstand what you are trying to say. I have lived overseas most of my life and taken almost every known flight to India from US. In India I have taken all airlines and find Jet Airways the best. In some respects Jet beats even the best such as Singapore, MAS and Emirates. For a short read more...
