AI Domestic First DEL-BOM v.v. on 3 cabin 777 aircraft

I have a couple of segments upcoming between DEL and BOM where I am booked in First on 3 cabin flights operated by 777 aircraft.

Does AI distinguish the in-flight service between J and F on these flights? And if so how? Any experiences...

Thanks!

took advantage of the 40% off redemption offer a few months ago to travel in the first cabin between del-bom....to tell you the truth, i didn't notice any difference in service when compared to the business cabin....

  • First Class passengers get boarding passes with a deeper shade of red/gold trim.
  • First Class passengers get to share the cabin with a higher rank of bureaucrat / politician on free upgrade.
  • First Class passengers get a dedicated toilet which is shared only with the 16 crew on board.
  • First Class passengers are advised ahead of other passengers of any delays or cancellations.
  • First Class passengers get to choose first which meal option will not be available due to catering shortage.
  • First Class passengers will get more pointless empty glasses on their tray setting for the meal than Business Class.
  • First Class passengers get a choice of Coconut Water and Watermelon Juice (seasonal) in addition to water and orange juice at boarding.

LOL, I can't wait.

My previous AI F experiences have been DEL-LHR and DEL-ORD. This will be a new one on a domestic.
