Changing terminals in Delhi is not the most pleasant experience ever, and you are lucky indeed not to have to experience that tsastor! There seems to be a growth of new hotels around DEL airport including a Holiday Inn probably for the numerous mis-connect pax seeking lodging at the last minute...

Thanks for your comment Spymon, would be great if you did a report on that Jet Airways flight! The thing about Jet and AI that I experienced is inconsistency in their ops, kind of like you never know what you're gonna get. And they do not even have direct flights between GOI and DEL. Furthermore both I think are more prone to delays which can really disrupt travel plans. Thus on the overall I find IndiGo to be more reliable, and would still be my choice if I ever need to travel within India again.

Thank you Jimgotkp! I hope I can still continue to travel as much as I did! But most probably the coming year is not really going to happen due to some other commitments. Most of my travels in the coming year will be quite boring I think but we shall see...
