I've came across the Skytrax website and saw this. Well, I'm not sure whether is this news for you guys, but has anyone flown IT before? Do they deserve this ranking?

They don't have international operations, but their domestic flights deserve a 5* ranking. In Y on the A320/321 you have good legroom, great (and great looking) cabin crew, Satellite TV, good meals even on a 45 min flight and even a porter to take your luggage from when you enter the airport through the baggage x-ray to the checkin counter.
If you have a tight IT to IT transfer in BOM, they will take you from plane to plane on the tarmac so you don't have to "transit" through the non-transitable domestic terminal.

IT indeed deserves to be a 5 star airline before TG. I flew on IT last week on BOM - DEL and DEL - BOM. The service, despite not as polished as what I am used to at SQ, was excellent and it was on Y. For a 1:35 hr flight, we were provided with headsets (every seat has its PTV with 5 - 6 channels) and a printed hot meal menu (2 options - a veg and a non veg option). Meal service also came with desserts and free flowing bottled water and juices service + tea and coffee. At the end of the flight, we were also allowed to keep the 1 prong headset + we were given a Kingfisher pen.
Seats are comfortable with very nice adjustable headrest.
By the way, what's amazing is the number of concierge porter donning the IT red uniform who is willing to help out at the airport from the time you get off your taxi cab until the time you check through the security regardless of the class you are flying.Last edited by UMD; 19 December 2007, 07:04 AM.
