Air India can never compete with any western airline or prestigious airlines like Singapore, Malaysian or Emirates. Hospitality glaringly of low quality; indifferent attitude of cabin staff; delayed departures and very much delayed arrivals; stinking toilets; loud talking backseatwalas; every crying babies in the hands of mother in law who makes herself a show piece; flight crew talking in "inglis"; stale chapatis served as "indian bread" with a very much abhored 'mutter paneer'; a melancholious shehnai music are all trade marks of Indian. Ridiculous, Just like Doordarshan competing with BBC. Aircraft may be new but the crew? ground staff? I always prefer to stay back for a few days to get into British Airways or Lufthansa or Singapore Airlines or Emirates. Even Airfrance is better. Will never do the mistake of getting into an aircraft of Air India even if they promise to give 75% discounted fares.

It seems western style is your taste, Air-India will carry the Indian Hospitality and is very much popular with the Indians living abroad. Food is also always good indian cooking, yours may be a one time experience... I will always prefer Air-India.
