JFK-BOM coach
Folks - going through the other threads, it seems a lot of people are having issues with the lights not being dimmed and the in-flight entertainment not working. What I am interested to learn though is if the conditions of the toilets have improved on this long 15 hour flight. Supposedly in the past, there wasnt much of a cleaning routine, but I was hoping that will change after the Tata acquisition. Please comment if you have flown this or any other non-stop route over the last six months. Thanks

thanks

I thought given that JFK BOM is on the DL 77L's this shouldn't be an issue (other than maybe IFE content)? Anyone know if there's wifi?

Most of the time acceptably clean. Very very occasionally bad. But in a 77w in Y you have plenty of options.

JFK-BOM will be on one of the newer plane so you won't face any of the issues being discussed in the other threads. Toilets have been clean on all the flights I've taken recently on this route.

Just trying to fly non-stop, we arrive less tired without a change of planes

by newer planes, are you referring to the refurbished delta planes?
