      With it being a 17 hour flight I guess that they are flying with two captains and two first officers. So it might give them a bit more leeway.
      I do think that it's need that they can take out that tablet out of the cockpit. I would love to have something like that detailed information in the entertainment system on the flight.

    I like Sam being critical - we need more people to give honest opinions about any service (airline, hotel, rail, whatever) to push them to be better. As a passenger, I am excited for the future of Air India. I just flew them in economy from JFK-BOM and it felt like a major transitional phase. Some things are great, some are okay, some need big improvements. Here's hoping we get a better AI so we get more options to travel and better prices.

    As a son of a former Indian Airlines employee, I'm loving the new Air India. I do miss the Air India jharokha windows from the old 747's, their iconic interiors and their Maharaja, but change is good. I truly appreciate Capt Khan for explaining the flight mechanics and the smiling faces of the crew. Indian passengers are demanding and challenging on Indian Airline crew, but their service is amazing. Air India has over 20 menus including Jain Diabetic etc unlike any other airline. Hope the aging 777's get replaced soon by the 350's for the US routes.

    I was in San Francisco during September/October 23 and very happy to see an Air India flight there. For me, Air India flight always stands out due to it`s livery and also being an Indian basically. I had only flown with Air India only twice, from London to Mumbai and then to Kochi in Feb 2017. Had seen Air India flights in New York, Melbourne, Bangkok and Singapore which makes me happy. Air India never flew to Adelaide in South Australia; but during Covid times around Aug 2020, there were some repatriation flights between Delhi and Adelaide and took some photos. Later on, Air India had two flights transiting via Adelaide, one from Sydney and the next from Melbourne to Delhi, but their Delhi to Sydney or Melbourne were direct. Both these service via Adelaide has since been scrapped. I had flown to the new Bengaluru airport from London and then to Kochi in Jan 2009 with the defunct King Fisher airlines. Air India should provide WIFI service to flights especially the long haul ones.

      Akasa is just like any other low-budget airlines. Took a very short flight from Chennai to Bangalore earlier this week. Charged Rs. 550 extra for 1 kg over weight on ckecked luggage. No hot drinks served due to short flight. Booked and paid for food inflight but handed some muffin in a box and some juice packet. Young, enthusiastic, busy bee crew. The pilot hard landed the MAX but safe. OK, overall.

    This was a nice 777-200 LR ex Delta. The original Air India ones are very tired and not thoroughly clean inside and out. Hopefully TATA has new interiors coming soon at least. Also you are right Indian airport security is the most picky and detailed in the world. Emptying everything electronic several times is daft as is the 5-6 ID/ ticket checks. In my recent flight where the DEL-ORD was delayed 10 hours (third time this has happened) they at least handled it better having arranged a hotel. The previous two times we were left to make our own arrangements and several of us stayed in the lounge for 24 hours. Agree with you on food. They could improve that fairly easily, especially the Indian options I’d think.

    The 777-200LR is sadly kind of a cursed plane. It has unbeatable range along with all of the general comfort of a 777 . It also can perform a vertical takeoff when empty and t/o from as little as 500m runway with proper configuration. Although the insane amount range required a ton of fuel, which the GE-90-110 turns out to burn quite fast even compared to the GE-90-115 and that's why it came to fail

    Back on 2006 I flew on air India when they flew out of Los Angeles on a clapped out 747….. even than it was the best flight to India I have ever had simply because the economy used those wide butt cushion seats. Food was awesome and free alcohol And I got drunk as a skunk with the uncle and auntie next to me. There was no internet no tv except for what came down from the ceiling. I’m glad. They are getting better and they will be number 1 again for international service. Come back to Los Angeles air India.

    Despite the considerable break, the longest Air India flight from Bengaluru to San Francisco began its voyage. TATA, the very first and grand old symbol of Indian air travel, takes immense satisfaction in its voyage. I gladly sent my best wishes to the staff members who are providing compassionate and modest services to the passengers. For the past 15 years of coming to the United States, I have had several obstacles in transportation and at immigration checkpoints in two or three locations. And I happened to have a 3 to 9 hour stopover in the airport. Now, all of these laborious tasks will be completed pleasantly. Next, I'd want to thank Sam for sharing this fantastic footage with his viewers.👍
