Early AM arrival in DEL-> transfer to????
We are planning on arriving on BA in DEL at 0620 on a Monday morning.. would it be crazy for us to try to transfer somewhere else? our plans are to visit Agra, Jaipur, Udaipur, and Ranthombre..

Any thoughts? car straight to Agra (?3-4 hours?) Kingfisher DEL to Udaipur (1220-1400; ? Kingfisher) ...

Thanks

Actually, you should mortgage AI (or IT). The companies are worthless, so you might as well mortgage them. Who cares if the lender reposses them?

Now this is perpetual motion of the third kind.
Who would lend against a worthless collateral? Would you? VM might, just to see his name in the headlines!

OK... Avoid Kingfisher and Air India. Can someone recommend an airline for domestic flight?

Indigo and Jet are generally pretty reliable. When/where do you need to fly?

I agree avoiding Kingfisher is a great idea, but not sure why you should avoid AI... It's my preferred choice domestically. Perhaps last week's trip report might show how nice AI usually is.
