This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that’s the way I like it!

Loved the video and the aircraft – SO CONGRATS AEROFLOT 😂 the rest nah …same old AI.. let’s wait and see what their aircraft are like
Your summary of what Air India's future might hold is spot on (18:21 onwards)
MISLEADING 👎 You should be sued for defamation!
yesterday i had an air india flight from hong kong to delhi, it was pretty pathetic, 30 min delay, plus screens were not working and also the bathroom door fell off, but the crew were really friendly and the food was good.
IT may hv TATA name but it will take at least 5 more years to even think of challenging Emirates or Singapore airline.
you can leave my comment here to see in 2029 that nothing would change with Air India 🙂 its a lost cause
If you have to take Air India…….SWIM!
8:11 What the carrots, you call these business class seats? space looks so cramped. one thing missing (for sure, i see lot many cabinets and enclosures) is washing machine so one can do their laundry for their 15 hr flight and maybe include a private loo so the passenger does not have to use the common loo (shouldn't each passenger get one) <= now thats is a challenge for the designers.
Air India is the worse. It was somewhat better before TATA took over. TV screens don't work, seats broken and dirty, food not only pathetic it is served in those 2 cents garbage plastic container. In flight staff carries ductape so if something is broken they just "fix" it. Imagine being in a 17 hour direct flight where there is no TV and pathetic service.
This is probably the best and most candid review I have seen of any airline. Thank you for the honesty.
It is baffling that Air India and Vistara are owned by the same company. As good as Vistara is, that's how appalling Air India. It was far better run while owned by the government.
The choice of music is not good. Sound editing is really poor.
Does it smell in the cabin?
Used Air India code sharing with ANA, from Tokyo to New Delhi……😢was a disaster….seats dont recline, no video screen working, horrible food, didnt get the dinner i booked, was DISASTER – sure they make a comeback in about 100 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😢😢😢😢😢😢
Tata needs to fix nexon ev first, then Air India
Great video!
THE OWNER OF AIR INDIA IS ALSO THE OWNER OF JAGUAR LAND ROVER 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Air India saves India.
Nice review
nice video but just a suggestion, india has a lot of classical music but u probably chose the worst of the lot. For future videos, dont ever use it again. loved the video tho. Saying it in a friendly way btw
Why do you guys always select aisle 6?
The big blue sticker with the instructions on the left take away so much from the aesthetics. Terrible design choice.
The problem with Air India despite the privatization recently is they need to clean house from top to bottom. It has been a nationalized and badly managed and run airline for more than 55 years and the people working for Air India carry the same bad attitude and bad customer service and you can’t let them all go. It will take a long time to turn around Air India even with the Tata’s once again controlling the airline they lost to nationalization in the 1960s.
Vistara started out well but they also started having problems.
Currently, the popular airline in India seems to be IndiGo which is a low cost carrier so their time is numbered as long as it lasts before they devolve into every other low cost airline.
From Newark, I would have flown the nonstop service to Singapore by the Singapore Airlines A350 service and they have A350 service from Singapore to Chennai and both flights are two class service except the EWR-SIN service is Business or Premium Economy.
