anyways, after a try of peaceful resolution for the trouble they gave my mother, and no response what so ever from their end, I have decided to finally sue them this time.. Let's see what the consumer court thinks of my case..
I think this is the end of my flying with Jet ever..

Sometimes Jet does bend its rules. During my last trip, I made a cash upgrade on a JetKonnect flight. I had pre-booked a meal, so I called up the call centre (well before 8 hours of departure) to cancel the meal, since it would be anyways be provided in the business class. I was told to write an email to info@jetairways which I promptly did. However, I get a reply telling me I will not get a refund, without any reason stated in the email. I replied with two points - I will go to consumer court for this, and I will stop flying Jet after being a loyal customer from last 8 years. To my utter surprise, Jet agreed to refund Rs.200 which I paid for the meal.
Still can't believe its not a prank!!

9W is good for one thing-turning 0% earning classes into 125%/150% earning ones. (X/R/C class on AA )
Their award chart is confusing and probably compensates for this.
(and India isn't exactly the best place in the world to transit.)

The stakes were quite low in my case. In any case, I would not really have sued them for 200 bucks. I think what worked was the threat about not flying in future..

Um - not sure if this is the right thread but here goes.
I was scanning revenue as well as award (econ as well as premiere) tix on BOM-BLR and back for November for a wedding i have to attend with Dad - all of a sudden today, prices have shot up, and Y award availability on the full service flights has disappeared with red "N/A" sign instead of "SOLD OUT". What gives!?
