Hi,

Ive got several questions regarding Air India's fleet renewal. My gateway to and from India is 90% of the time BOM and if anyone has the answers i am looking for, i would be grateful to them.

1) Any ideas when the newer B77Ws will be based at BOM and fly to LHR on a regular basis. I want try the New First class on these planes but dont wanna risk having a 747 with all that money spent?

2) When are Air India going to join Star Alliance as i want to earn BD miles for the above F trip.

3) Is the 77W DEL-LHR a longterm thing or will it revert to a 747. If it is a long term thing, i may risk tranferring at Del to a IC flight to BOM.

4) What sort of ground service can one expect in AI F class (comparison to Jet?)
