So whether you paid cash or miles it's a huge sum. You should have looked up a couple of reviews. You can't say I'll buy something that costs $6000 and depend only on what their own advertisement says. AI or not that's asking for trouble.

Mind you, I'm not excusing AI's B777s & 787s. They have become absolute dog do do and should be avoided. I think they're mainly flying them out of corporate greed. At the same time doing a massive public service because of the high volume of IND-USA direct travel and there's no other airline that could step up and pick up this load. Prices and travel efforts would increase significantly if they just stopped flying those broken down planes.
