Yes, but transiting in DEL requires flying AI, and I don't even need a straw poll to prove to you that more people would rather the combination of CX + transit in HKG, than AI + transit in DEL
One is a true "fantastic" carrier with proven levels of service recovery. The other is a relic of the socialist era who's reliability can not be extrapolated from a HYD-DEL flight.
