Curb side is available in BOM & DEL if you depart international from there. They usually call you ahead of time and check where to meet.

Does anyone know if companions can join F pax for ground service or any other parts of the journey? May be booking a flight with 1 in J and 1 in F due to award availability on DEL-SFO.
|
looking for suggestion.. got a UA award for next week - 14th - DEL-ORD in F but via YVR (i'll have to book a separate flight from BLR-DEL which is ok, i can work one day from DEL office)... other option is direct BLR-ORD via MUC on LH in J.. same number of UA miles (88k).. MUC connection involves a 6+hr wait
is AI F still something worth experiencing? or better to take the LH connection? also not sure about all these strikes in germany.. |
Fly direct via MUC. Why waste time flying around in the wrong direction? AI F is not really so grand ...
|
Hello all -
Does AI offer any assistance for pax arriving in F (from ORD) and departing in F (to MAA). Connection time seems tight (1hr 50 minutes). Is this a doable itinerary (both flights on the same ticket)? |
It's a tight connection since you need to collect your bags in DEL, clear customs and re-check them, but it's doable. AI will have a porter meet you at the plane on arrival from ORD and escort you all the way to domestic check-in.

Will update this thread if I end up doing this itinerary. |

Hi all, can anyone share what the domestic ground handling experience is like for F pax ? I booked an AI F award (was going for Biz, but F was availalble so thought it might be fun basically for the novelty). My flight is BOM-DEL-ORD with the domestic segment also on the 777 with F cabin. There is a 3.5 hour layover in DEL.

Please update after the trip. I have the same itinerary April, 2024. I booked the the same itinerary for the exact same reason; for the novelty.
|
hello all - Anyone know --- Does AI release more than 1 F redemption seat on the LHR BOM route? (e.g., close to departure date)?
|
Yes, I see it on the United website

Does anyone know why Business and First class both are available under the same fare class First(O)? Does it mean that if I book business, I get to fly first as the underlying fare class is for First? Wink

Recently I saw DEL-IAD (787 on AI) business showing as "O" first class (154K miles as well!) Also saw the DEL-SFO 3:20PM departure without a first class cabin...showing as "O" first class when it was indeed business. Did not buy those. |

https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...d45c9d9780.png Also can you ticket AI flights through MP now? This has been broken for months. |
