That sounds like an apt tag line for Air India. They should project themselves as an adventure themed airline, for the traveler who likes to live by the edge. Might just help turn around the troubled airline! @MS - haha...that's certainly possible. These idiots were fighting while flying over an aggressive neighbor who wouldn't mind shooting them down at the slightest indication of something amiss. @Solilo - :) @QI - Very apt address! I'll try to find that HT article. @Roshni, @Dinesh, @25Bar - Exactly! @Naveen – Welcome to Amreekandesi! That sounds like an apt tag line for Air India.

That was to be the last time. Leaky roofs don’t really inspire the sort of confidence you are looking for while flying 10 kms above the ground." A friend once told me that she chose Air India because she had a small kid and thought it would be convenient to fly something familiar. She was in for a shock when the Stewardess' were rude and refused to provide any baby food. It was hot inside the flight and water with all dirt was coming out of bathrooms. She warned me then and thankfully I never even thought about flying Air India ever. “I flew Air India once from New York to Delhi. That was to be the last time.
