I would do the GoAir and upgrade to GoBusiness - well worth it...

Save your Jet miles for an international award or similar type of travel.

For India USA Trips, which carrier still allows 2 Piece Luggage? (with ultimate destination in a Non US gateway, resulting in a domestic leg in USA.

AI does, but only for the west-bound segments. For the return, the First Operating carrier rules apply, resulting in higher Fees.

Any ideas?

well onlysuites, why fly direct when you can connect ;)

LH used to offer 2 bags as an exception ex-India, probably to match the EK/QR/EY offer of two bags in economy to the US.

It still does, but the US Gateway - Final Destination Baggage Charges are not clear. Since US origin flights are not covered under MSC, rather Originating carrier basis, the extra baggage allowance stinks.

Flew it two months back. Good service but old style recliner seats.

Getting a sweet deal in Eco, 37k one way - That was the attraction.
I checked on the net, no Transit Visa required. Just to confirm that information is accurate?

Any up gradation to Business is possible using miles ?

Could the veterans kindly give me a hint about the FT regulations (ToS / T&C) with reference to the exchange / barter of Miles? I may be in dire need of domestic miles in the near future and don't know the procedure to approach a transaction.

Thanks in advance.

I would suggest you buy them direct off Jet, with their 40% extra sale on right now that is decent value. Well nothing is decent value with Jet but its the best value you will get for buying JP miles.
