The most full 747 I have ever been on is Mumbai-Hong Kong there was not a spare seat in economy

And there was a Que! of 40-50 people in business/firstclass!

I think the most stupid decisions is dragon air to bangalore

Now that they are flying to calcutta they do not need ot fly to bangalore as they can still maintain their 2 airlines to India goal.

Lufthansa is sending a 747-8 to bangalore, most passengers going to San francisco

They dragon Cathay option if the fastest to San Francisco-20 hours
yet Lufthansa does really well and Dragonair flights are mostly empty!

Bangalore has way more premium passengers than Chennai and Hyderabad .
as evidenced by the high business class capacity 747-8 coming to bangalore

Any one knows why they still give draognair to Bangalore
Dragonair provides better service and seats than CX in all regional routes...
