Yes, very expensive!! You should considering to take on AI or AA nonstop DEL-ORD is a less time. If you cannot affordable for that to sit in the J class. However, if you want to searchable to find a real cheaper the reasonable fares. Only where you sitting in the economy class.

Sometimes Etihad or Turkish, both decent airlines, have good deals. It depends on just how flexible your dates are. Istanbul is also a fantastic stopover city for a few days.

Umm.. the LHR-JFK service was cut over 2 years ago. The JFK flights have been running nonstop from BOM and DEL since then.

provided this starts on time, i'm tempted to give it a try for my trip next month....i have a meeting in detroit in mid november so going to chicago will be an easier option than flying to jfk via bru on jet....

This flight was supposed to start Oct 31. There doesn't seem to be anything about it on the web; no news item about the inaugural flight (but perhaps these thing are no longer news), nothing on FT, etc.
Did they manage to start this service or was it delayed, like everything AI-related?
