    Atleast serve this guy better, he's a well known reviewer, his reviews are viewed by many.
    and Air India is working like a govt department, putting stickers in place of TVs...😀😂
    We need to get out of this Jugad mentality.
    Now, Tatas have acquired it, I hope services will improve from here on.
    They'll hopefully bring it back to it's old glory

      I often travel on a air india AI121 dreamliner from FRA. Usually, the staff are better than the other airlines. Its cheaper and indian food is better than western inflight. I don’t watch tv much and I work on my laptop and its quiet comfortable.

    This is one of my favourite videos of yours for a long time. I liked your honesty and the vulnerability of your fear of the upcoming trip. I prefer it to the ultra luxury and glossy videos you sometimes do where you interview the captain and get personal tours from the staff and have your own suite etc because those seem so unattainable to me. Therefore, this video seemed more "real" for the common people like me and therefore I loved it!

    Very interesting @Sam Chui. I flew Air India from Heathrow to Rome in 1976 on a Boeing 707. Yes that's right a 707, the only time I have ever been on one. It was a magic experience, the cabin was beautifully decorated and they had incense as well. It was in the days when smoking was OK. I don't recall the food we had if any, but it was a very memorable flight all the same.
    I was returning to New Zealand at the time and the next leg of the journey was on an Alitalia DC10, via Israel, India, Singapore to Sydney. Then back to NZ on an Air NZ DC8 to Christchurch, and finally on a 737 to Wellington. It was a long time ago now but very nice memories. I enjoy your reviews and regularly visit to see what you are up to. Cheers from NZ.

      Dark Knight, as a senior purser for an international airline that no longer flies to India, I am familiar with the offerings of the caterers out of both Indira Ghandi, and Chadrapati Shivagi airports. Personally, I enjoy Indian cuisine, but many of my colleagues didn't and our caterers ( Oberoi Flight Kitchen) offered or crew several choices of both Indian and Western cuisines. Mr. Chui should have tried the western offering as well as the Indian, to at least see if at least the western one was acceptable.

    This was the time when it was among the three most profitable airlines in the world and Air India was at the top in luxury flying
    Government overtake and horrible mismanagement brought it straight down

    Good vlog and a honest review. I have always felt that there is an unfair criticism of Air India by the public for reasons beyond its service. Some of my best flights have been with Air India. The 787-8 dreamliner flights have the largest leg room (83cms) in economy (even above Jet Airways 777-300ER), more spacious due to 2-3-2 configuration and the food is always top class. I have had bad food experiences in Jet Airways but never even once in Air India. Their South Indian breakfast menu tastes really good. The Air Hostesses are govt employees and hence older women but who cares when I get the service more than the value for money paid.

    @6:46 Is that a stain on the headrest? I've been on 2 AI flights. One resulted in a RTO at BOM in the middle of summer. Plane taxied to a stand and passengers were cooking for over 2 hours with no AC. 2 years later, flew 747 from BOM to JFK via LHR. We lost cabin pressure 1 hr before landing, had emergency descent and continued to LHR. My concern is with the handling of maintenance of their aircraft and the management in charge. I give props to the flight and cabin crew for what they have to deal with.

    Nice planes, but their chaotic and disorganized ground operations coupled with their ok food service with horrible domestic standard presentation leaves a lot to be desired. Not to mention they don't even provide amenity kits and that 787 looked worn down already! I think Sam was being nice! For a 787, those business class seats are VERY outdated in design and comfort. I guess since it only cost $1,300 though, you got what you paid for. I would personally never fly Air India, and it's clear why they hesitated even letting them join the Star Alliance! What a cheesy national carrier! It's a shame because the crew seemed very nice and experienced. They deserve to have better products to serve their customers! India and it's citizens also deserve an airline they can be proud of! India is an amazing country, so I hear, and has amazing people.

    I flew from SFO to DEL a few years ago. It was a full flight on an aging 747. Some of the flight attendants were too short, so they needed the male passengers to help close the overhead compartments. During taxiing to the runway, some of the compartment doors sprang open. Once the plane got in the air, and the seatbelt signs went off, the passengers closed the doors again. I guess we were lucky that luggage wasn't falling out during takeoff.

Having said that, with the amount of money air India charges, other flights offer more and better so it’s obvious for them to get criticized. What else do you expect.

      You don’t get to say what or how the passengers are, you do what you’re paid and supposed to do, and that’s provide them with the service which is worth the money they spent. They will bash you if it’s not up to the mark or if other airlines provide better with the same amount of money. It’s obvious

      Zarden - I understand what you are saying but it doesn't work that way. Imagine you paid 3,4,6,8x ( or more) the price of an economy fare for your BC or F ticket and got say 5-10% better service for all that money that you had saved up to be able to afford. What you get for your money is VERY important and it's reasonable to expect that higher level of service and very basic things like priority boarding. If I am getting the same food but served on nicer plates and having to stand on an air bridge waiting around for ages along with pax in econ then why don't I just save my money for my holiday and pay the econ fare instead. I've flown econ / budget carriers a lot more than I've ever BC ( I've never flown F) in my time but when I do I expect the carrier to make sure they pay me back for all the money I just gave to them.

    Gr8 video. Airlines just like Air India have the potential to do really well.. Everyone is used to the QR/EY/SQ/EK business class product and these airlines have certainly set the benchmarks for their competitors, however there are the smaller airlines which can bring something new to the table and seriously take those airlines for a good run for their money. Sam, I challenge you to meet me on SQ, from Sydney to Copenhagen on 2 September..

    @sam chui - I completely understand you can’t compare air India business class with ethihad and there is a reason air India business class is far more cheaper than ethihad and Emirates . It’s a value for business class . For a 15 hours long haul 1000 $ upgrade is value deal.

    Though you are experienced; I would like to differ with you in regard of foods. These foods a re very much traditional Indian food. And from my experience, any other airlines viz. Singapore airlines, China airlines, JAL, ANA, emirates all provide foods according to their host country. We can customize our foods. Suggestion of improvement of foods; I do not agree. For me, flying in any chinese flights gives me a tough time to eat their strong pungent food. But I respect their way of life and foods. However, I agree AIR india can improve in terms of ground service and some other factors. Thanks!

I flew economy from Dehli to Chicago (a 20 hour flight with a refueling stop in Vienna thanks to the closing of the Pakistani airspace). However, the overall hygiene of the flight was lacking and the entertainment system was slow and didn't have a wide selection. Inflight staff were nice though.

      Good comment. And quite to the point.... AI is insolvent - kept afloat by taxpayers - without their consent. It is bloated and badly needs better management, restructuring and a sell-off to any buyer who is at least partially insane.
      No government so far has had the cajones to do something about it (no, trying to sell it with crappy conditions and resulting in abject failure does not count as 'doing something'). One of the biggest failures of NaMo/BJP govt. is to continue to keep this 'national carrier' afloat on poor peoples' back to subsidize air travle for the middle and upper classes.. This is clearly one amongst many other failures of this government (and I am neither an Indian citizen nor a Congress/opposition supporter).
