Posted: Mon Dec 01, 2014 1:55 pm Post subject: Part 3 Air India DEL-BLR |
|
|
So after a delayed landing from dxb, even after rushing towards check in counter for my blr flight it was of no use. I was then put on the very next flight to blr. I had almost 2 hours to kill and dint know what to do.
Took the escalaltor to the food court. Only a few were open. I realy wanted to eat a typical southie dosa and coffee but the counter was yet to open. So went to kfc for a breakfast of popcorn n zinger. Washed all down with a vanilla blue. I know its very crazy but i still dont know what i was thinking.
At about 8.30 i was near gate 31A.
So the new revised itenary was as follows.
10 June 2014 DEL-BLR
Air India AI506 Airbus 320
Seat: 7A

Boarding commenced right on time that is 8.50 (something new i saw in my entire trip). We were airborne within 9.15. The load was full. As soon as we were on crusing level i fell asleep.
Woke up just on time for snack service only after being yelled at by the FA(yea she yelled veg o non veg). I was still in a sleepy mood so forgot to click pics.
The tray consisted of a coleslaw sandwich with generous amount of filling. The main box had a veg puff pastry along with 3 juicy succulent pieces of chicken tikka marinated in green coriander mint and chilly masala. Desert was a sinful choclate brownie with lots of almonds and cashews sprinkled all over. Then the usual rounds of tea/coffee.
With a totally full and happy tummy i was into sleep for a good hour o so. Woke up right in time for landing. Baggage took a bit of time to arrive. Other than the yelling of the FA it was a pleasent flight.
So this brings an end to my BLR-DXB-DEL-BLR. Sorry for very few pics. Thank you.
Il be back soon with my next report IXE-BLR on 9W.

I'm loving it, Sir! Great food descriptions, flights on board an airline I usually patronise much more than others on the forum, and of course, descriptions and pictures at my `home' airport. Great job, please keep it up: the food part has got something stirring deep inside me, and I need to eat something, quickly, so vivid have been your descriptions!
Cheers, Sumantra. |

Thank you once again sir. Actually to be frank from a very young age i always patronized Air India.
The only horrible experience i had with them was of the delay.
No matter what it will always be the 'National Airline'.
And to describe about the food i have learnt from the best. (U ). |

My experience has been that its only McD and Idli outlet which is open in wee hours, looks like they changed the timings.

Great end to the journey - the only suggestion would be to directly embed the pictures in the report, so we can see the pictures along with reading the text. _________________ We miss you Nalini! |
