    SMART MOVE BY AIE, CAN TAKE THE ADVANTAGE OF KING FISHER ? IF THE OPERATION GOES SMOOTH WITH OUT DELAY OR STRIKE, AND PRICE IS REASONABLE,,, THEN AIE MAKE MONEY THIS ROUTE, WHY BECAUSE... NOW IS THE SCHOOL HOLIDAYS..PEOPLE WANT TRAVEL... IF YOU COMING FROM MUMBAI TO MANGALORE TRAINS AE FULL FOR 3 MONTHS AND VOLVO BUS CHARGING 1800.00 FOR 1 WAY OTHER BUSES 1500.00 SO IF YOU PAY ANOTHER 1200 YOU WILL REACH EARLY AND WITH IN 3 HOURS YOU ARE AT HOME ... JET AIRWAYS TICKET IS SKYROCKETING..SPICE JET IS IF YOU EARLY BOOK ITS OK... I THINK..SMART MOVE BY AIE

    Air India employees union of all political affiliations have threatened to go on indefinite strike in 1st week of April 2012 for settlement of unpaid wages, increase in perks and salaries...AI is not dependable at all......

    For best, efficient, economical and puncutal services, govt has to privatise all air lines operting in India. Its not govts cup of tea any more as corruption is rampant, salaries are not paid, no upgradation, no roper maintenance of aircrafts, AI cant compete with major alir lines.. always delays or cancellations without notice and without alternate arrrangements... AIE price between Dubai/Mangalore is not competitive. Infact its more than Emirates flight Dubai/Bangalore.. EK gives food and drinks, but AIE doesnt serve any thing.. This is high time that govt opens its eyes and privatise 49% holding to private players and make it more trustworthy and safe....

    good move, but does not seem to be a direct flight. flying time is one hour 45 minutes. a direct flight would have been better.

    It is boon. Hope they will not squeeze the passengers like other operators. Recently...airlines started charging exorbitant...three times the normal! AIE can accommodate large number of passengers and majority travelers can enjoy the fair pricing. I request them to start flights in Mangalore-Bangalore sectors. Recently Jet and Kingfisher were charging up to Rs. 14,000 (one way! higher than Bangalore -Dubai return!) to last minute desperate passengers!
