I don't know why but whenever I see an Indian product doing well, it makes me immensely proud that its from our land. There is just a sort of connection between us that refuses to go away, something that emanates love and a emotional bond. This is one of the best airline review videos I have watched ever. Kudos to Air India for such a massive and spectacular turnaround. Love from Karachi, Pakistan.
Nice words, thanks a lot! I do trust the same progress will reach there too. The potential is there. Middle Eastern carriers fly there a dozen times a day. Have a nice one!
I completed a BLR-DEL flight yesterday in the AI a350 premium economy. Must say Air India have truly upped their game. I only wish they continue to do the same and not degrade their planes like their older ones. Truly loving the new Air India rn
I am telling everyone, one day Air India will be the most luxurious airline just like the 70s and 80s. A lot of trust on Tata. Also loved to see my home airport after so long here
@@Wanboy I flew on the Qatar Airways A350-900 from Atlanta to Doha, The flight was fully booked but it was fine, The IFE was awesome, and the legroom plenty for me. However, the food was very bad for some reason even though I have had a good culinary experience with QR. Other than that my only complaint was the window placement, It was towards the beginning of the seat ahead of me so I had to lean forward to look out (and I had specifically booked a window seat). Anyway, the second flight was excellent, also an A350-900 from Doha to Amman. This flight was only half booked and I had all 3 seats next to the window to myself. The breakfast was good and I got some tea. Bathrooms were clean because no one really used them. But the best part for me was that this was a dawn flight so the whole cabin became increasingly orange (It was pretty stunning actually) that paired with the desert in the early morning was enough to make it a five star flight for me personally. So in the end my first flight might be a 3.75 star flight but my second a well deserved 5 and a good experience overall.
This was so good, What a stunning aircraft yet equally a stunning product, fantastic review and the business looks so nice and what an improvement. Nice to see Air India back to where it should be. I bet the food is super yummy, great stuff 👍😊✈️
Hey Paul! Lovely seeing you around! Stunning product indeed. I hope the aircraft is kept well and the service remains good. Still lots of improvement left for the rest of the fleet but it’s a good start.
Wow Alex! Watched this video after a gap. Loved it, as usual. Good to see you cover the upcoming flagship aviation brand of the world. Good luck to you!!
Such a positive review about AIR INDIA and that's the truth to talk about. Few other TH-camrs give negative feedback about this airline. It's still in transition mode after TATA took over Air India. It will be widely used airlines going forward and will become favorite for air travelers soon. Hats off to you for this video.🎉
My god first of all thanks for making this awesome video. Showing what AI is doing with the new changes is beyond amazing, loved every part of this video and happy that you liked this new setup. Also the Lounge was very nice to see. I will try it myself next time at IGI T3. Instant new sub and happy to see more new content on AI and it`s routes to like Amsterdam (My home) and London.
Thanks of coming again india. Last videos from chennai india and now delhi india. I appreciate and heartfully thank you ( No word❤). You are the one of our contry un official tourism ambassador. Thank you so much coming again. Always welcome you.
Happy to see you having a good time and the airlines also making a comeback, I can finally switch to Air India from middle eastern carriers for my flights from USA to India.
Waited for this video for such a long time. So happy to see it finally. I flew the Air India A350 recently on the Del- Bom sector. Excellent video. You flew on the same aircraft as I did VT JRA
@@TheLayoverAviation i also would love to see you in next vlog featuring Mumbai Delhi or Mumbai Bengaluru.. Airbus A350. actually new A350 livery is attractive when u see landing its wow to see Air India in new livery ❤️
You cannot imagine how happy I am when I open TH-cam to find your latest video featured. Happy you finally managed to take this flight and share it with your community. Thanks a lot for that. And btw, you're one of the very few I watch ads fully and even sometimes click on them. Hope it'll help you produce more blasting content. Lastly, I transited via AUH two days ago and I was wondering if I'd be lucky to find you IRL 🤣. Keep up with this passionate sharing! Mochas gracias!!!
WOW ... AI has certainly improved. The lounge was amazing, hope the new AI lounge is just as gorgeous, the food looked amazing. The aircraft cabin was amazing, compared to their older product, the crew looked wonderful and the food ... a huge step-up from what I've seen elsewhere on YT. I can see why you were really impressed ... shame they didn't have a blanket handy ... the Mrs might like a new AI throw rug ... 😂😂😂 Hasta la próxima 🥂🥃🍸🍻
Hey Dean! I’m only annoyed about how hard it is to travel to/from India, bureaucrats and all that.. But besides that it’s just world class and I would consider it a perfect alternative to the Middle Eastern airlines. I wouldn’t mind detouring via India to the US instead of stopping over in Europe. Anyway, cheers buddy, see you around! 🥂
Welp, Air India is really improving now! Who knew that one day they would change for the better? Especially where I live, Toronto, this will be perfect for passengers flying to Delhi from Toronto and other long haul destinations. I’m also curious to see what the new livery will look like on their other aircraft like 777s and 787s. W vid Alex 👍🏻
Going to watch another masterpiece. Thank you for uploading. Always love your reports. I'm also travelling on air india to middle east. The only difference is that the flight is on the old 787.
Bro you're the best aviation vlogger in the world. Thank you for making this new modern looking Air India A350 to dubai from Delhi. I like it. How was your stay in New Delhi. Did you like air india A350. ❤😊
Great video. Saw multiple A350 review of Air India. Most of them were very skeptical and unnecessary finding faults. As a user of the product and service, I wanted to suggest few changes in the product line- 1. No merger of Vistara and Air India. Let both run. Make Vistara a luxury first class product line with introduction of Cabin/Coupe like ANA on Vistara. 2. Change the placement of control buttons as it gets touched mistakenly many times 3. Need handrest on these seats. Its very hard were to keep your hands 4. The table needs to be more sturdy as it shakes quite a lot even in normal winds. I couldn't imagine what would happen if during meal service the plane experiences turbulance 5. Lounge- Lounges in Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, etc of Air India needs a major overhaul. They are kind of old and retrofitted
wow Bro! loving every moment of it.....hope AI continues the legacy of the maharaja with this new turnover.....enjoying your content here to the details...thanks...keep soaring high...cheers....
Great report! Air India A350 was very amazing. They're truly sleeping giant that will be awake soon. 180° different if this report compared to your last Garuda trip report 😢
Wow, the service looks great, they’ve completely turned around that company, I expect them to start competing with the Middle Eastern airlines very soon with that type of service.
it’s all perfect except for the security and customs at the airport. That’s just plainly a mess and takes long. Not efficient to transfer there. Once they fix all that they can take my money anytime 😂 I’m sure many others would do the same.
Well done video! I had the opportunity to fly the inaugural flight. The 2 concerns I see are - 1. The Tray Table slides down from under the Screen, thus the table could be quite wobbly during even if light turbulence is felt. and 2. Lack of arm rests made my arms just sit on my lap *face palm*. Other than that, an excellent product! Amazing food service - obviously it's TAJSATs after all! (My arm didnt keep touching the control panel so I have no complains like the rest on that front) Thanks for your review! Was amazingly edited and comprehensive including the lounge! I'm waiting for the new AI Lounge to come up! Cheers mate!
I agree, CISF personnel doing security checks at all airports of India are not the most friendly ones. I’ll also include Paris, and ALL US airports security checks. Sometimes US TSA are way worse
wonderful flight review on this Air India beauty.I hope that Air India will be getting better and better and overcome the problems of the past.Well done Air India and well done to you my friend for these lovely and full of details flight reports,cheers from Athens
Nice words, thanks! I wish all airlines the best, but specially when they’re affordable and offer quality. It’s us, the consumer that ends up winning. Middle Eastern carriers became super expensive so Air India is now a great alternative for many. Thanks for writing, I miss Athens ❤️
I was eagerly waiting for the Delhi-Dubai trip report on Air India’s A350 Alex and it was totally worth the wait. Enjoyed every second of this trip report. Thanks for an amazing Air India trip report Alex😁
Hey Alex, it is soo great to see the bounce back of AI. It is honestly a splendid effort so far by Tata to transform the airline into the greatest in the skies. Man, after coming off from that Flipflop traveler video, this felt like a breath of fresh air. Pure transparency, no bias, just purely a reviewer who is documenting his experiences. Huge thumbs up and a sub. Just wondering what the BGM at 4:45 is. That piano is soothing as hell.
I just met an ex Air India cabin crew yesterday, had a coffee with her. She’s now in Emirates. She told me that she does not have faith at all in the A350’s being maintained better than the previous planes. Made me a bit sad to hear. But other than that, yeah no bias from my side. I would consider myself an hospitality and airline expert, by profession, and Air India is pretty damn good. Whatever other say is their opinion or experience on that day. TH-cam only generates views by either collaborating with airlines or criticizing them. I sadly can’t do either 🤣
@@TheLayoverAviation I seriously hope and pray that the airline will continue to upkeep and regularly maintain the cabins and not let them rot away like with the existing Dreamliners and 777s. But that FA's opinion is not coming from nowhere. Even after 2 years under private operation, the majority of AI flights remain the same as they were pre-privatisation (broken seats, dirty toilets, inedible food). The 350s are more like a marketing gimmick for AI at the moment, and not the norm that you will experience. But again, AI has been the benchmark for many of the existing world-class airlines. In fact, SIA took inspiration from AI back in the 70s and look at how far it has come, creating all-new experiences in all classes and some of the best crew in the world. Regardless of the negativity and controversy, I still believe AI can bounce back to former glory in the greatest rags to riches story ever written. Thanks for the comment Alex.
Hey Alex bro I’m ur old subscriber it has been so many months since I have seen ur video the video is excellent ur caption explaining the details everything is excellent I thoroughly enjoyed ur video bro .❤
I doubt they will ever overtake emirates. In fact, emirates was so dominant that the government limited their flights to avoid air India and other Indian carriers from facing losses.
@@SFAvgeek No need to overtake Emirates or any other airlines, improving services is the matter. For premium services Emirates is best but their economy services are worst TBH. All countries have their own Mutual agreement for air services, it’s pretty common.
@@SFAvgeek it’s not about the seat about Service, I used to travel long 6 years regularly in Emirates economy, out of two recent bad experience I shifted to Ethihad and thereby I found the difference, also Emirates cabin crew carry lot of work pressure.
India still finds it difficult to reclaim its glory especially with its national carrier. Listen t the voice and diction of thee stewardd. I mean what can one say?
I’ll give kudos to Tata for making the investment and getting good management. Air India has made huge strides since it went private. It’s really great to see Air India A350 product offering being top notch along with the lounge at Delhi.
1:48, Same when I am departing Tel Aviv to Athens on Wizzair, Airbus A321 last June and transiting in Mumbai from Indigo/Turkish airlines, Boeing 777-300ER from Istanbul and Indigo, Airbus A320neo to Singapore via Mumbai, security is long in Tel Aviv and security is very strict in Mumbai and not even it's crowded at 6am, they have to take out almost everything and take a few break (just like Cairo, it's the most chaotic airport) that take half an hour 45 minutes, not good, but I made my connecting flight to Singapore with a layover of 3 hours (in the airside for 2 hours and 15 minutes after very strict security while transiting in Mumbai at 6am).
What a contrast to the FlipFlop traveller's review who kept complaining about missing hand rests, vibrating tray tables and uninspiring food on the AI A350. And data theft in the video before. Really don't know what to make of these reviews unless I try out myself!
My table was very shaky at one point, but the turbulence was quite bad 🤣 And yes, you’ve got to try it out yourself. TH-cam reviews are highly inaccurate, some get paid for reviews, and others get more views for complaining. It’s very few that just show things as they are. Not even I like to share it all. Some things on bad days can get crew in trouble or even fired. That’s someones job you rob for a video. Josh Cahill got that done. Can’t wait to have a chat with him when we cross paths..
@@TheLayoverAviation And not to mention Noel! He's always complaining about the smallest of things. So annoying. Meanwhile Cahill and Sam Chui are constantly firing shots at each other. Maybe we need a Jeremy Clarkson for airline reviews...that would make it entertaining atleast! 😄
Finally, someone mentioned FlipFlop Traveller's way of reporting. After looking at his Garuda trip report, I was quite put off. The focus was primarily on a scandal unrelated to the trip report, which became the basis for the rest of the review. This trend seems to appear in most of his videos. Layover Aviation, on the other hand, is very to the point, sticking to visuals of the flight itself with minimal narration, and is such a pleasure to watch! I enjoy his use of subtitles and visuals only, as it allows us to see for ourselves. When it comes to the actual experience, we will never know until we personally go and try it out ourselves. I don't like Josh Cahill or Noel changing their tune with every single flight they take - most of which is negative.
Sir thanks for the video! VT-JRH was superb! I recently purchased the VT -JRH new Air India A350 model from Singapore. I was happy to see that you were giving nice comments on our national airline! I am your ten year old fan from India (Pune) Jai Hind Jai Bharat!! Can you please make a video of New livery Air India A320 ?
@@TheLayoverAviationbut AI need to step up their peripherals and amenities game up. Especially those headphones, didn’t looked super good sounding ones.
WOW! Great airport, awesome lounge and food selection. AI aircraft, AI service, AI food reaching for the skies. Thumbs up. 7:22 "small selection" That's 2000 calories right there. Should have been your only meal of the day....LOL. 24:13 Another 2500 calories. Close to 4500 calories in less then 3 hours. Great going :). Loved the engrossing video. Cheers!
Thanks for showing the growth and new India , other westerners think we are still the oppressed kinda 😂 fact is we have money , education and global access and our life styles are better than some western countries .
Fantastic Trip! Would be a great video if you visited kerala (gods own country) which is in india. Their airport is fully power by solar and even gotten a award from the United Nations.
Absolutely stunning video buddy! 😊 As always! I hope Air India will open a brand new chapter... I'm curious how Air India will look in 5 years! After 1 year I will do some interesting trip, I will fly 5 flights and fly through 4 countries in 1 day I will be trying out SAS A320neo.. the video will take a while to make on TH-cam but on my Instagram it will be faster😅 Thanks for the upload mate! See you!😊
Thanks Maurice, I do hope you get to try them as an avgeek yourself! Your trip sounds very interesting. I saw on a recent video that SAS pilots allow avgeeks in the cockpit. Who knows?! Looking forward to see it. See you around buddy!
I did an ultra short flight of A350 from Chennai to Hyderabad. Although the flight was delayed, what was more saddening was that the flight was only 50 mins. The in-flight entertainment was the highlight having such large screens in economy section,...every time an announcement was made, the videos were pausing, which was frustrating as it was hard to enjoy and movie/show because of the less flight time
I know it takes a while to get used to it.. It’s been many years with the old logo. I haded the new Iberia or American Airlines ones, but since then I got used to it. I do like the new Air India one, the past one many don’t associate with luxury any longer..
Yeah, that’s the risk of these video’s. It’s so much nicer if they’re just background humming, I have that at Etihad. I just don’t notice it. But loud music, colors and dancing you can’t unsee or hear😂
Really hoping for the best for Air India! Indians really are long overdue for a competitive flag carrier representing India, and competing against the big 3 Middle Eastern carriers, with Emirates being the unofficial flagship carrier of India. There is a market for Premium service in India, and if Air India does it right, they will also be a major carrier in the Asian region, and will go a long way in representing India and its culture too!
Fun fact this A350-900 is part of massive deal with Airbus. So the deal was to take delivery of six A350-900 which were supposed to be designed (interior) for Aerolflot. Because sanctions on Russia Airbus couldn't sell them to aeroflot. So Air India picked them up at big discount. Six planes like these will be delivered each month. For six months and then the A350-1000s will be delivered as per order. The interior on those will be even better. I am waiting for that. This is still massive upgrade. Many airlines don't have these suites. They certainly don't have the warm hospitality.
Hey! I really like your videos❤❤Your videos give me a strong vibe of traveling. I live in San Francisco currently. Could you please make a video of virgin Atlantic upper class?
I didn't pay much attention when the friendly check-in staff gave me directions to the encalm lounge, so I went to the one next to the Air India lounge (it is easy to spot after the duty free area). Luckily they made announcements every 5mins that this is not the "by invitation" lounge but the "credit card /purchased access" lounge... To say the least its really a superb place to spend some hours there :)

Most enjoyable air video I liked the silent treat of each and every details. Air India is rocking because of flying enthusiast like U
Great video. Saw multiple A350 review of Air India. Most of them were very skeptical and unnecessary finding faults.

1. No merger of Vistara and Air India. Let both run. Make Vistara a luxury first class product line with introduction of Cabin/Coupe like ANA on Vistara.
2. Change the placement of control buttons as it gets touched mistakenly many times
3. Need handrest on these seats. Its very hard were to keep your hands
4. The table needs to be more sturdy as it shakes quite a lot even in normal winds. I couldn't imagine what would happen if during meal service the plane experiences turbulance
5. Lounge- Lounges in Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, etc of Air India needs a major overhaul. They are kind of old and retrofitted

Nice words, thanks! I wish all airlines the best, but specially when they’re affordable and offer quality. It’s us, the consumer that ends up winning.
Middle Eastern carriers became super expensive so Air India is now a great alternative for many.
Thanks for writing, I miss Athens ❤️
@@TheLayoverAviation I couldn't agree more with you,bye
I was eagerly waiting for the Delhi-Dubai trip report on Air India’s A350 Alex and it was totally worth the wait. Enjoyed every second of this trip report.
Thanks for an amazing Air India trip report Alex😁
Thanks for waiting this long. I missed the flight a couple of times.
Glad you liked it. I did love it. Thanks for writing, have a great one buddy!
What an amazing video man! Liked!
Thanks y friend!
Hey Alex, it is soo great to see the bounce back of AI. It is honestly a splendid effort so far by Tata to transform the airline into the greatest in the skies. Man, after coming off from that Flipflop traveler video, this felt like a breath of fresh air. Pure transparency, no bias, just purely a reviewer who is documenting his experiences. Huge thumbs up and a sub. Just wondering what the BGM at 4:45 is. That piano is soothing as hell.
I just met an ex Air India cabin crew yesterday, had a coffee with her. She’s now in Emirates. She told me that she does not have faith at all in the A350’s being maintained better than the previous planes. Made me a bit sad to hear.
But other than that, yeah no bias from my side. I would consider myself an hospitality and airline expert, by profession, and Air India is pretty damn good. Whatever other say is their opinion or experience on that day.
TH-cam only generates views by either collaborating with airlines or criticizing them. I sadly can’t do either 🤣
@@TheLayoverAviation I seriously hope and pray that the airline will continue to upkeep and regularly maintain the cabins and not let them rot away like with the existing Dreamliners and 777s. But that FA's opinion is not coming from nowhere. Even after 2 years under private operation, the majority of AI flights remain the same as they were pre-privatisation (broken seats, dirty toilets, inedible food). The 350s are more like a marketing gimmick for AI at the moment, and not the norm that you will experience.
But again, AI has been the benchmark for many of the existing world-class airlines. In fact, SIA took inspiration from AI back in the 70s and look at how far it has come, creating all-new experiences in all classes and some of the best crew in the world. Regardless of the negativity and controversy, I still believe AI can bounce back to former glory in the greatest rags to riches story ever written. Thanks for the comment Alex.
¡Excelente Alejin! Acá disfrutándolo! Un abrazo!
Amigo, cuánto tiempo!! Cómo estás?!
@@TheLayoverAviation todo bien por aca! Gracias! Espero alla tambien! 😎
Amazing Air India!!
Very much!
I just flew Etihad Business class and I am an Indian the food choices for vegetarians was sub par at the best
Hey Alex bro I’m ur old subscriber it has been so many months since I have seen ur video the video is excellent ur caption explaining the details everything is excellent I thoroughly enjoyed ur video bro .❤
Thanks for returning! Very glad you liked this one. Hope to see you around again soon! 😉
Beautiful Air Craft And Cabin.Great Video And Info
i cannot tell u how many months have i been waiting for this god damn !!!!!!!!!!
There you go, hope it was worth it..
@@TheLayoverAviation it was bro
really damn worth it
Wow! You will never go hungry in that lounge, beautiful!
It’s incredible, specially if you like Indian food ❤️
Air india will reach at the top under tata leadership i always feel proud as a Indian ❤❤
So glad to see how all Indians share the same opinion!
They are improving quite fast, changing Emirates to Air India.
But Emirates is also changing at a quick pace. Let’s see how their A350’s will be on the flight to BOM!
I doubt they will ever overtake emirates. In fact, emirates was so dominant that the government limited their flights to avoid air India and other Indian carriers from facing losses.
@@SFAvgeek No need to overtake Emirates or any other airlines, improving services is the matter. For premium services Emirates is best but their economy services are worst TBH. All countries have their own Mutual agreement for air services, it’s pretty common.
@ emirates economy is the worst? Imo it’s one of the best.
@@SFAvgeek it’s not about the seat about Service, I used to travel long 6 years regularly in Emirates economy, out of two recent bad experience I shifted to Ethihad and thereby I found the difference, also Emirates cabin crew carry lot of work pressure.
India still finds it difficult to reclaim its glory especially with its national carrier. Listen t the voice and diction of thee stewardd. I mean what can one say?
impressive air india
Adeel Khan from Pakistan
still old aircrafts are there to sucks...
Absolutely amazing
Great plane!!
Great intro!!
Thanks!!
I’ll give kudos to Tata for making the investment and getting good management. Air India has made huge strides since it went private. It’s really great to see Air India A350 product offering being top notch along with the lounge at Delhi.
better with the old music:) nice vid mate
Yeah, it’s a little struggle with the rights but worth it, I guess 😃
Nice i hope you enjoy our indian national airline😊❤
Air India A350 very nice plane airliner nice trip Delhi to Dubai.
AUH to COK on Air Arabia is worth it, gonna try it? I live in Abu Dhabi and travel that route often so I'd say its worth it 😉
This was a great video
very glad you liked it, Mike!
Another five star coverage
Thank you Pritam!
1:48, Same when I am departing Tel Aviv to Athens on Wizzair, Airbus A321 last June and transiting in Mumbai from Indigo/Turkish airlines, Boeing 777-300ER from Istanbul and Indigo, Airbus A320neo to Singapore via Mumbai, security is long in Tel Aviv and security is very strict in Mumbai and not even it's crowded at 6am, they have to take out almost everything and take a few break (just like Cairo, it's the most chaotic airport) that take half an hour 45 minutes, not good, but I made my connecting flight to Singapore with a layover of 3 hours (in the airside for 2 hours and 15 minutes after very strict security while transiting in Mumbai at 6am).
What a contrast to the FlipFlop traveller's review who kept complaining about missing hand rests, vibrating tray tables and uninspiring food on the AI A350. And data theft in the video before. Really don't know what to make of these reviews unless I try out myself!
My table was very shaky at one point, but the turbulence was quite bad 🤣
And yes, you’ve got to try it out yourself.
TH-cam reviews are highly inaccurate, some get paid for reviews, and others get more views for complaining. It’s very few that just show things as they are. Not even I like to share it all. Some things on bad days can get crew in trouble or even fired. That’s someones job you rob for a video. Josh Cahill got that done. Can’t wait to have a chat with him when we cross paths..
@@TheLayoverAviation And not to mention Noel! He's always complaining about the smallest of things. So annoying. Meanwhile Cahill and Sam Chui are constantly firing shots at each other. Maybe we need a Jeremy Clarkson for airline reviews...that would make it entertaining atleast! 😄
Finally, someone mentioned FlipFlop Traveller's way of reporting. After looking at his Garuda trip report, I was quite put off. The focus was primarily on a scandal unrelated to the trip report, which became the basis for the rest of the review. This trend seems to appear in most of his videos. Layover Aviation, on the other hand, is very to the point, sticking to visuals of the flight itself with minimal narration, and is such a pleasure to watch! I enjoy his use of subtitles and visuals only, as it allows us to see for ourselves. When it comes to the actual experience, we will never know until we personally go and try it out ourselves. I don't like Josh Cahill or Noel changing their tune with every single flight they take - most of which is negative.
Sir thanks for the video! VT-JRH was superb! I recently purchased the VT -JRH new Air India A350 model from Singapore. I was happy to see that you were giving nice comments on our national airline!
I am your ten year old fan from India (Pune)
Jai Hind Jai Bharat!!
Can you please make a video of New livery Air India A320 ?
Damn, that lounge was nice AF
super good food 🤤
@@TheLayoverAviationbut AI need to step up their peripherals and amenities game up. Especially those headphones, didn’t looked super good sounding ones.
Outward appearances are deceptive my friend
WOW! Great airport, awesome lounge and food selection. AI aircraft, AI service, AI food reaching for the skies. Thumbs up. 7:22 "small selection" That's 2000 calories right there. Should have been your only meal of the day....LOL. 24:13 Another 2500 calories. Close to 4500 calories in less then 3 hours. Great going :).
Loved the engrossing video. Cheers!
AI is soon connecting to NYC n London with its new A350s possibly a video on tht in the future😊absolutely loving these
I will do my very best to fly it. Wouldn’t mind at all!
@@TheLayoverAviation if you try NewYork flight from India, would like to see you fly from Mumbai. Love your aviation videos.
Thanks for showing the growth and new India , other westerners think we are still the oppressed kinda 😂 fact is we have money , education and global access and our life styles are better than some western countries .

Fantastic Trip!
Would be a great video if you visited kerala (gods own country) which is in india. Their airport is fully power by solar and even gotten a award from the United Nations.
Don’t worry, I will!! Perhaps soon, I’m planning a trip there in September, but nothing sure yet.
Absolutely stunning video buddy! 😊 As always!
I hope Air India will open a brand new chapter... I'm curious how Air India will look in 5 years!
After 1 year I will do some interesting trip, I will fly 5 flights and fly through 4 countries in 1 day
I will be trying out SAS A320neo.. the video will take a while to make on TH-cam but on my Instagram it will be faster😅
Thanks for the upload mate! See you!😊
Thanks Maurice, I do hope you get to try them as an avgeek yourself!
Your trip sounds very interesting.
I saw on a recent video that SAS pilots allow avgeeks in the cockpit. Who knows?!
Looking forward to see it. See you around buddy!
You are the best youtuber in the world!!! Will you fly vistara for the last time before it merges with Air India??
That is so sweet to say of you, thanks! And yes, I hope to fly the Vistara B787 from Bali.. It’s on my radar..
I did an ultra short flight of A350 from Chennai to Hyderabad. Although the flight was delayed, what was more saddening was that the flight was only 50 mins. The in-flight entertainment was the highlight having such large screens in economy section,...every time an announcement was made, the videos were pausing, which was frustrating as it was hard to enjoy and movie/show because of the less flight time
Here in 39 seconds. Nice trip ❤
Also no offense but am I the only one who doesn’t like the new air India logo. I preferred the old one 😅
yes missing the Zharokha designs and the old AI service.......
Nam wala idea jogiji ka tha😂😂
I know it takes a while to get used to it.. It’s been many years with the old logo.
I haded the new Iberia or American Airlines ones, but since then I got used to it.
I do like the new Air India one, the past one many don’t associate with luxury any longer..
Old one was old dated and not modern at all
@@-bigChungusVerified I still don’t like new one
I told another vlog that you supply attendants with chocolates. I think it is great. Great report.
Almost always I bring, even on this flight too. I think I brought them some Japanese sweets here..
I totally hear you about the safety video. Flew DXB-BOM recently. They played that longass video twice! It’s beautiful but it gets tiring! 😅
Yeah, that’s the risk of these video’s. It’s so much nicer if they’re just background humming, I have that at Etihad. I just don’t notice it. But loud music, colors and dancing you can’t unsee or hear😂
I hope Air India revamp all their planes to this standard
Me too!
Thank you for such a great review
Really hoping for the best for Air India! Indians really are long overdue for a competitive flag carrier representing India, and competing against the big 3 Middle Eastern carriers, with Emirates being the unofficial flagship carrier of India. There is a market for Premium service in India, and if Air India does it right, they will also be a major carrier in the Asian region, and will go a long way in representing India and its culture too!
The passing of Arthur Morgan continues to evoke a profound sense of sorrow within me.
They almost ruined the game to me back then!
Fun fact this A350-900 is part of massive deal with Airbus. So the deal was to take delivery of six A350-900 which were supposed to be designed (interior) for Aerolflot. Because sanctions on Russia Airbus couldn't sell them to aeroflot. So Air India picked them up at big discount. Six planes like these will be delivered each month. For six months and then the A350-1000s will be delivered as per order. The interior on those will be even better. I am waiting for that. This is still massive upgrade. Many airlines don't have these suites. They certainly don't have the warm hospitality.
Hey! I really like your videos❤❤Your videos give me a strong vibe of traveling. I live in San Francisco currently. Could you please make a video of virgin Atlantic upper class?
thanks a lot have a nice flight
You too, thanks!
My favourite youtuber 😊🎉
I didn't pay much attention when the friendly check-in staff gave me directions to the encalm lounge, so I went to the one next to the Air India lounge (it is easy to spot after the duty free area). Luckily they made announcements every 5mins that this is not the "by invitation" lounge but the "credit card /purchased access" lounge... To say the least its really a superb place to spend some hours there :)
Hello mate, Thanks for flying air India!, By the way have you tried Vistara you should try out their 787
It’s the plan to fly it to Bali soon!
Nice!
I Love Air India
The 350 is great!
These A350-900 from Air India will be soon deployed to new US routes such as Boston,Atlanta,Houston,Dallas,
Miami,Seattle,Los Angeles etc
You should try an Air India flight from San Francisco to Delhi and other way around. You will see what Air India is like ..
much better options from san frnacisco
