I flew from Bangalore to Goa on a Kingfisher flight. The flight was delayed but the passengers were informed promptly, and the apology appeared to be genuine.
Once in the flight I found that seating space was much better than the other low cost carriers which pack you in like a box of sardines. Also the in-flight service, the food and the TV console displaying the speeds and altitudes of the plane were a revelation. The air hostess promptly handed us a safety belt for our infant son, and this had been impossible to obtain on an Air Deccan flight.
Kingfisher Airlines is now my first choice airline, and I will gladly pay the premium for the good service they offer on and off the ground. With an economy class ticket I was feeling like a VIP, just waiting to fly business class on this to savour the Kingfisher First experience.
