I flew QR out on a Mon in Feb. It was a ghost town (plane?). Economy was less than 1/4 full. Everyone was in the forward section and each had three seats to themselves. And there were rows to spare. The FA said she was amazed by how few people were there.

The Airbus thing freaked me out for a moment too. Of course, it is probably far more risky being on the road in BLR or COK or pretty much anywhere in India.

Have a good flight and tell us how it went.
