Recently I went to a 388 for the first time from FRA to IAH. Overall the seating is fine (same as 744), however the baggage claim was chaotic, that too at IAH which has a huge arrivals baggage claim center.

It is a good thing that 380 is not in India, as it is the baggage claim is a mess with 744 or 777 arriving, with a 380 it will a nightmare. I am not sure even DEL can handle the baggages.

Errrrr
There's a daily 737 to XYZ, so don't let them fly double daily because baggage claim may not cope Rolling Eyes

Baggage belts are probably easily upgraded (I don't know, I'm just guessing). Besides, there's the option of putting priority bags on one belt, and the regular junta bags on another belt.
