Baat toh sahi hai….
“SpiceJet sasta hai isiliye ho aap…”
The comment of ground support staff at Delhi Airport sparked a row …Passengers took offence, some were even heard saying - “inko kayee mahino se tankha nahi milee hai…”
Both the sides are actually bang on and the situation described aptly !!
Just wonder how SpiceJet, a scheduled operator, allowed to operate with massive consistent disruption and cancellations … Also, with airfares soaring, passengers do book cheap flights and SpiceJet becomes a default option…
Shouldn’t the regulator step in and at least put out an alert for passengers booking with SpiceJet of high possibility of cancellations/ delays / rescheduling?

Is Air India ready to challenge the status quo on the nonstop Bengaluru @BLRAirport London @HeathrowAirport route?
Hearing that @airindia is confident of deploying its refurbished 787-8 by January 1 or may be even before Christmas.
It’s a move that will inject much-needed @StarAlliance capacity into a market long dominated by @British_Airways of @traveloneworld and @VirginAtlantic of @skyteam.
The refurbished cabins will offer them new business suites, premium economy and economy classes which Bangalore demands in spades.

This will be a significant shift in the competitive landscape on one of India’s key long-haul routes.
