Alcohol cart was brought out only for the third meal, and I would think most people wouldn't want to be buzzed just before landing in the morning. Flight map did not work correctly.

Yeah, TPG didn't quite mince words like
SeeBuyFly did
I think your conclusion redeemed the experience in general.
On another note, anyone have experience regarding booking AI non-stops with UA miles, like this TPG writer did?
From the TPG review:
"Booking this award wasn’t as simple as transferring points and selecting Air India on United’s site though. For whatever reason, I wasn’t able to see availability on this flight on United or Aeroplan’s websites, but a United supervisor was able to confirm space after working at it for 30 minutes or so."
I have been checking availability on UA's site but the nonstop DEL-JFK on AI doesn't show up at all for the many different dates I have tried.
