PDVtoDEL, thanks for the info. I have a single reservation but was still considering rechecking my bags just to make sure they made the connection...
To me, I am basically trading off between a convenient and relaxed connection (assuming I check my baggage all the way through) and the assurance of having my bags arrive at the destination (if I recheck my bags, it is highly unlikely that the lugage woudl not be at the destination)...
In any airport, I'd assume the odds that the luggage would arrive, with a 1hour50 connection, are really high... I just heard so many negative things about Indian airport that I was kind of worried in this case...
Obviosuly, if the luggage belt at Delhi is slow (Dubai is the worst I've seen :-) ) then it certainly is not worth risking missing the flight ...
So I guess I'll check my bags all the way though (and maybe take as carry-on the stuff I'dd need to be fine for 24hrs...)
Thanks a lot for the help
