On the return in mid-Sept. I will have a 12hr layover in DEL on a Saturday.

1. What do y'all recommend for a bit of tourism? I'll be there from about noon 'til midnight.

2. Is there a place at DEL where I can strore my bags until AA checkin opens? e.g lockers? left luggage desk?


(p.s. already got confirmed eVIP upgrades both ways... sweet!)
There are no left luggage facilities at DEL and its not advisable to attempt checking your bags through from Dhaka to ORD. One option is booking a room at a nearby hotel. If not a room, try using the bellhop services at a hotel. Another option is to rent a car (they come with a driver) and keep your bags in the trunk while the driver takes you around the city. As you are prbably very aware - driving in India is not for the faint of heart.
