A clear sign (not that we needed any more) of Jet having lost their touch?
Or maybe Naresh Lalaji tried to redeem his JetPunishment points and the JetChild told him "sorry sir, no availability for the next 330 days, but we're happy to let you use your points to fly a better airline for less money."
Really, if you're going to step out, at least let it be something worth cheating for. EK don't seem to be that much better than Jet - that's like cheating on Mayawati with Jayalalithaaaah. Shows how little Lalaji thinks of his airline.
Jetuna Matata!
Evidently, Lalaji is a habitual offender.
I have in my possession copies of two e-tickets in the name of a certain Goyal, N Mr:
- #1 for DXB-BOM (staff travel ticket, confirmed in J but waitlisted in F, with an annotation "9W Chairman")
- #2 for the same flight, a full-fare walk-up one-way F ticket
Apparently the waitlist on the staff travel fare did not clear, so he bought a walk-up F ticket at the last minute.
And, yes, there was a 9W flight departing 20 minutes later.
Wow.
(Unfortunately I can't share the ticket - don't want to get anyone in trouble)
