Indian Airlines Flight
After ages i recently travelled in IA. Normally when i have to travel via flight will think of private players and would never consider IA as an option...as with govt run airlines u will always associate poor service.
Thought lets give it a try...as the timings suited me well.

Was pretty curious to see how the flight experience will be...as the first flight i took when i was a kid maybe 7 yrs old was in IA. I remember very clearly that, as soon as we boarded, the air hostess came with toffees they had special mint toffees then...and i opened my hand to grab a good amount then i heard my father's voice telling me to pick just 2.
I was like...these adults they will never understand...why do i have to always act as a mature well behaved kid(as kids, my brother and me preferred sitting with mother than father..as father was strict :))...with a very sad face i picked two...luckily the air hostess could read my dejected look and gave me a handful of toffees...i was thrilled.

My brother tells me that, when the flight was about to land..we both unbuckled our seat belts and stood up holding the front seats and giggled when we experiences turbulence.

As i was thinking all this..waiting for the announcement to board the flight...got to hear that the flight was delayed by 20 min's...as soon as we boarded the plane..got to know there will be 20 more minutes of delay...i somehow felt, this experience is gonna not be so nice.

When the flight took off..the air hostess came with tray of toffees...i searched for the mint toffees...alas...could not find it had to settle for the imli toffee..anyways was happy to get a toffee.
They offered us juice and later dinner...Must stay the cabin crew in IA is really very good, very hospitable.

Will surely travel again :)
