Advice on BOM-DEL-CAI
Trying to use some DL miles, doesn't look like it is going to come together, so I am looking for best options for BOM-DEL-CAI. I realize that BOM-DEL is almost an air bridge, so I am not to worried. But what would you guys say is my best option going from DEL-CAI?

Thanks

I'd say your best option is to take one of Egyptair's 330s from Bombay to Cairo!

If not, then you should be able to connect somewhere in the Middle East (Emirates, Etihad etc)

Why don't you do BOM-CAI without going through DEL as suggested below?

That's what I was thinking too.

We did Gulf Air DEL-BAH-CAI - in F class (full flat beds) for about USD1000 one way. J class slightly cheaper.

Very nice with lie flats, on board chefs, ok lounge in BAH.
