Quick review...

Flight: AI 143
Aircraft: Boeing 777-200LR
Flight route: MAA-DEL-CDG (MAA-DEL on A321) on Nov 26
Booking class: Business
Seats: 2-3-2 layout, almost flat (the foot area doesn't come up fully)

What I liked:
~ Business class was barely a third full, so plenty of space
~ Service was fast & friendly, quick response when I needed anything between meals
~ Food quality & taste was excellent

What needs work:
~ Food is served all at once on a single tray
~ Entertainment system is great if you are a fan of Indian movies & music, but nothing else is available (and why does the map software not show expected time of arrival?)
~ No dedicated lounge in DEL
~ Online check in or seat selection refused to work, got some error message repeatedly (probably because of the split flight)

Overall: Not a bad flight, even though it was an hour late on departure due to some late connecting passengers. Let's see how the return goes tomorrow night.
