TURKISH AND INDIGO ARE WORKING AGAINST THE INTEREST OF AI
INDIGO IS ADOPTING UNFAIR AND UNHEALTHY BUSINESS PRACTICES
INDIGO IS HAVING UNHEALTHY COMPETITION
INDIGO WANTS TO DOMINATE BOTH DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL
INDIGO IS UNPATRIOTIC AIRLINE

Better off taking one stop via Singapore, Emirates, Qatar, Etihad or Cathay depending on end location. That would provide superior flying experience for sure.

Hopefully in the future we will have more direct flights from US to India. There used to be ones from United, Delta and American but not too many operate at this point.

It is been 3 years since TATA has taken over. Hefty price, poor quality of service, transfer of luggage is pain in Bxxx. I stopped flying through Air India, when they ripped me with a $2800 one way, and gave me a IRCTC food/service.Lesson learnt with patriotism.

expensive fare, badly maintained equipment unprofessional staff

This is a very time taking and frustrating process. Prior to covid, if I was travelling from Chicago to Hyd via Del, I would only collect my check-in luggage at Hyderabad I never had to collect it in Delhi and recheck it in and go through domestic security check process again.
If you were travelling with etihad or emirates the transit process is much simpler. I hope Indian authorities make this transit process simple so that I will actually look forward to using AI flight again in the future. For now I don’t want to deal with this BS unless i don’t have any other options.

There used to be Qatar flight from Jfk to doha to amritsar. Is this still available, it shows online but is it true and no extra stops for this?

Hi Margaret! Chicago to Hyderabad nonstop flight is a distant reality. By the way, what inconvenience you are facing at Delhi Airport? If you kindly share in brief..

We are facing lot of inconvenience landing in Delhi and taking the domestic flight to Hyderabad.
