And if they dont then I would like to change seats asap. Its going to be a 14 hour flight lol I dont want to die from boredom.
All seats have AVOD

Give your ff# to the AI agent when you check in. You can add all flights you took or will take since you became a FR member.

Anyone have any issues with the bag dimensions itself? I currently am exceeding 10 inches for the total sum of 2 bags. Do you think Air India will care?
Put your laptop in the duffle bag until you're done with the security check. You should be able to bring it out afterwards without any issue.
10 inches should not be an issue.

Everyone thinks this way, comes early, check in 2 large overweight suitcases and creates a bunch of chaos. My personal strategy is to arrive at the airport a little late (about 1.5 hours before takeoff) for AI flights to avoid the long lines. Keep in mind that this is not necessarily the right strategy for everyone.

I have never had a problem getting extra food and hard/soft drinks on AI. All you have to do is ask politely and be respectful of (or flirt with

) the FAs as the situation demands.
