A Flight which is supposed to make us feel home, torture us with their cranky behavior and more over I lived my school days in Saudi Arabia and getting back to my home country was like full of excitement for me but, the ill-mannered behavior of the crew, bad service made me feel how great it would have been if I was in a Gulf air or an emirates.
I feel, they treat us better, with respect and ofcourse, its like a give and take policy. Let me give you an example and end up this review with a sad note, Air-India is the only flight that charge or rather slot you with extra fair and the sad part is, you can carry on 20 kgs to Gulf.
And I have experienced some or the other problems on board, one being the bad food service and the other would be the delay og luggage. This Flight is not at all punctual and when I was looking down for more reviews, was surprised to see that in some cases it was punctual.
Well, I am really surprised about those once in a blue moon incidents. I always wanted a flight that represent our Country to be the BEST and Im really sad to tell you guys that, the experience which I had with this flight is terrific. And the other incident was, I had booked the flight in advance and when we were in the checking counter, the staff came and told us that the flight is full and we will be able to fly the next day.
Well, how would you react when you want to run away from a country to our mother land and all of a sudden the booked flight gets full??? I really wanted to give those words to the buddy however realized that fate is not that nice always.
I thought I better sit there and sing a song like pink floyd sand decades ago, "Where were you when I was burned n broken?" but not to my girl, and not to my best friend but to the fortune which didnt feel mercy on me or was it this flight which was to be blamed? I dont know... I leave it for your imagination... I hope Air-India would start a new chapter, setting up a new trend, once Mr. TATA have started it of... JAI HIND !!
You must be thinking why do I travel by Air-India when I dislike everything about this flight but, let me tell you friends, thats the only direct flight from Saudi and unfortunately poor Indians are the victims for the same !!
