Well good luck anyway, the die are cast I guess.

On the other hand its good you are not able to enjoy indian mainline on short hops. They will make your future domestic airtravel in the US seems terrible.

Last weekend I was sitting in a Mesa UAX CRJ on a 1hr DTW-IAD hop looking at my tiny cup of water (the FA announced she couldn't serve any sodas due to the short duration) and remembering the terrific service I got on a similar flight on 9W with cold towels and a full meal for a fifth of the fare.
