    Air India is a great name and a great AIRLINE. I sued to regularly fly out to U.S. by this Airline. However had to seek a change as my destination is Detroit and AI do not have direct flights to Detroit. I has the pleasure of flying Executive class on a couple of occasions and have no hesitation in saying that the service and food are superb. Joe Gonsalves.
