However, I was in a biz seat with a dirty/sticky AVOD control where the AVOD/live TV was not even working, except for the flight info (and other surfaces as well)

The quality of the picture onscreen was terrible anyway, so not worth watching anything...

Sorry - Delhi and Mumbai airports will put KF on cash & carry on Aug 15, AAI will put KF on cash & carry on Aug 16, B'lore and Hyd airports to decide next week, and oil suppliers have already put it on cash & carry. http://bit.ly/9PGZBF

Really unfortunate - since they provide great service and I love flying KF whenever possible.....

I wonder what deal they have for their aircraft. Surely IT didn't buy the planes but leased them.
