    Air India travels recalling memories of School/college time KSRTC travel. If Driver wish to drive bus will come on time, or we are missing the class, last moment we are trying for Cars, Hardly 10 - 12days only bus was on time.... Instead of Ambasaror car Other Flights booking is more safer than AI for ever

    Mr.Rakesh Shetty,Air India should close their operation permanently.Just for your kind information,it is not Mr.Ajit Singh is responsible for this strike.U may not be fully aware that AI pilots go on strike for their selfish interest,ever since it became public entity.AI pilots should be punished severly & sacked for ever.They do not understand the inconvenience caused to passengers,specially chidren & infants.AI pilots r not human beings.Today AI is making huge loss due to their frequents strikes.Why Mr.Ajit Singh should inject tax payers money to AI.AI should earn enough profit to get their salaries paid.

    If flight is delayed at least there should be some extra baggage allowance for the passenger as compensation

    We have no choice but to book ourselves in AIE to manglaore as its the only direct flight flying to this destination from Dubai. The air line is making lots of money for 200 mins flights. It doesnt allow more than 30 kg baggage and doesnt serve any food or drinks. Passengers have no choice..absolute monopoly on this sector. When Flydubai asked for landing rights to Mangalore, our aviation ministry gave the landing rights to Lucknow to where so many foreign airlines are operating. Even I heard the ex Aviation Minsister Praful Patel saying that he doesnt wishes to have competition on this sector and doesnt wish to open Indian sky for gulf carriers...So AIE is operating its routine flight to and fro Dubai/Mangalore despite the pilots strike with some delays but they have so far not cancelled any scheduled flight...One can anticipate delays but not concellations... We need fly dubai or air arabia or our own jet airways to operate in this lucrative sector...Pilots are totally ungrateful to their country...They can give a time frame to the govt to address their issues and continue to fly...By doingn this they can win the fconfidence of general public, passenger and judiciary...But both the minister and pilots are so arrogant that the innocent passengers are troubled..Do we really need so much freedom??/Is our democracy failed???Are we a developed nation??? My advice to AI is to privatise it for better profit, better viability and passenger friendly.. Will this really happen. Its like erstwhile Indian Maharajas who dont have privy purse or power but just a royal symbol....

    Will anybody book ticket on this Air India express in the future...??? This uncertainity will affect the passengers working abroad. Will the employers listen to all these stories eventhough it is not the passengers fault..??? Passengers fault is only to the Air Express to fly...!!!???

    Dear Daiji, as a media person, can we ask you to put a request to the government to allow other carriers to operate international flights in Mangalore. It would be better if we can get this flight cancelled and invite other airlines to operate international flights. Why is nobody taking a proper action? Even if an action is taken, why there is no outcome. This is the voice of every citizen. Why there is no one to listen? Atleast if you can guide me to the right person to answer my queries, I can try my best to follow up on that.

    Dear Daijiworld,

    Please help your readers. You have done great social works. We trust you. Please be our voice to raise the topic against this dominated flight. We want private flights operating from Mangalore direct to UAE/Saudi/Qatar/etc (I am not sure about other place if there is alreday private direct flights flying from IXB)
