Starting to look for flights to India. A neighbor of mine, who grew up in India and goes back once or twice a year, said, "Don't fly Air India, they're the worst." Googled some reviews and they seem to support that feeling.
However, I also read that Tata recently bought them and is committed to make them a competitive airline. They've ordered a bunch of A350s and recently leased some 777s from Delta and Etihad which have much better seats (biz).
When I pick a few random flights from the US to New Delhi and check the layouts on seatguru, they show the old planes. I know seatguru is not infrequently wrong on the configurations, so I wonder if anyone has personal experience with Air India Biz class within the last year and would like to hear your comments. Thanks.
