But what ticked off Dey more was the overall feeling of every crucial operation being rushed once the Delhi flight landed. “We took off within 45 minutes of the plane landing.
The seats were dirty, the airhostesses were so harried that they performed the routine safety guidelines even as the plane was taxiing,” she says. “On hindsight, I doubt if the routine safety checks were even carried out.”

This is what happens when you get opinions from people who don’t know a whole lot. Sure, she’s entitled to her opinion but why try and use that as a basis for fact?
I'm not completely sure what the rules are concerning pre-departure checklists but 45 mins!! Come oneeeeeee if it took 45 mins for Southwest or any other LCC to turn around a 737 someone would probably get fired!
Sentences like those take the credibility out of the article. Although the AME does raise some concerns.
