While looking at tickets for an upcoming holiday with friends, our Simple Flying reviewer had several airlines to choose from for the final leg of their return journey from Delhi to Mumbai. They opted for flag carrier Air India to see if the recent Tata acquisition had started having any significant effects on the overall experience. The decision to fly Air India on this part of the trip meant that a change of terminals at Delhi airport was required, including a good few hours spent at the airport after the inbound flight. But, here’s how it went.

I have travelled Air India from BBI to BLR, both before and after Tata takeover . Before flight crew have dull and lazy expression like some forced to work, food was ok nothing special. Now things changed crew onboard and ground are very helpful and smiling face.

Yes, I traveled with air India this june. Sadly our flight was rescheduled for 2 hours later. The staff was very cheerful and showed an interest in serving the passangers compared to before the tata takeover.

Air India requires new interiors and livery.... it'll help fade away the substandard impressions of earlier flights when it was government owned...TATAs will do an outstanding work I know...😊

Flying Air India & Vistara, means free onboard Meal/food included with the flight ticket fare but talking about Mumbai, it really needs a another operable Runway other than Runway 9/27, because of it's huge Traffic demands.

Air India is quite inconsistent I've had flights with amazing meals but bad aircraft the 787 was suprisingly badly maintained but then the domestic leg of the journey had a great amount of legroom on the A320 I think.

@abdur2890 2 года назад
yap exactly same experience. I had both Air India and Air India express flights and mostly overall its good like service but the aircraft interior is just clearly bad because of lack of maintenance. I don't mind flying old aircraft but they should replace old seats and stuff every 3 to 5 years because its so bad. Hopefully Tata takes right decisions and make Air India great again.

It's very common that flights will be completely packed on domestic air routes in India. Especially Delhi to Mumbai air route being the busiest air route in the country and even one of the world's busiest air route hardly one can expect a light load.

Yes I have travelled multiple times but there is a special moment which I will never forget with Air India. I was flying from Mumbai to Chennai and I got a upgrade on their domestic business class! It was a surreal experience. Shame to say it was a pandemic period with things coming back on track slowly, but the flight itself was epic! I thanked the cabin crew for the excellent service on Air India. Hoping that Tata takeover does live up to its expectations and doesn't disappoint the passengers.

Please do travel on the 787 and the 777s also and post videos on that. People really need to see that both TATAs and Air India are trying very hard to make the airlines great again and as Indians we should appreciate the effort being put in and make Air India our go to airline everytime we fly.

I recently saw a video of an American Airlines flight (between US and India) where the toilet got clogged or something to do with the toilets and water. And someone else too had mentioned about the same in another American Airlines flight between the US and India. I guess it has to do with how some Indians use the toilets and it shows on ultra long haul flights, regardless of the airline. A friend recently traveled from Canada to India using a middle-eastern carrier (I forgot but it was either of Emirates/Etihad/Qatar) and said that they had 2 dedicated toilet cleaners on the flight who will go in the toilets every 30 minutes or so for maintenance. I guess they have learned from experience.

That cabin, Seat moquette and livery looks disgustingly old and cluttered despite it being a new plane. Quite surprised that Air India didn’t use the opportunity to clean up the brand.

So good to see a western RU-vidr, review my country and its airline without any bias and stating the truth, being someone who travels to the EU and the US on a monthly basis, I believe I've a strong case for what I say and what I critic, Indian airports and airlines are far superior in general, Especially Air India, and had this person been the typical Western reviewer, he would have first cried about the que outside the airport, the poor transfer from T1 to T3, and ofcourse even blamed the lady carrying the kid for not being considerate enough about his leg room, we recently had an uber intelligent self entitled reviewer cry baby after putting a Power vank in Checkin which instead of pointing the major security lapse at Heathrow , he uses adwords for more views to say denied boarding etc, thanks to you for being fair, honest and positive Cheers

The last time I flew AI was some 52 years ago and definitely it wasn’t complimentary. In today’s AI all the things you have stated I hope it can be backed up. Buying new planes reconfiguring the interior all sound wonderful and hope it all comes about successfully. Now the real question is maintenance & pilot training with hours of experience are some of the crucial part of an Airline business. I truly wish them The Very Best Wishes to become one of the top rated carriers.
