Air India: Whisky, Bollywood and non-stop Celine Dion. Good thing there were barf bags.

We had the distinct pleasure of flying Indian Airways, well actually Air India. We still aren't sure which airline we were supposed to be on since our tickets said Indian Airways but we ended up on an Air India flight. Whatever airline we were or weren't supposed to fly with, it sure didn't disappoint. The food (Indian curries) was some of the best airline food I've ever had and also pretty good compared to the dishes we've had while travelling in India. It didn't stop there. The unlimited single malt on the drink cart which showed up regularly, not like Air Canada's one drink service, probably made the in flight entertainment even better. Entertainment, which was provided by very high tech seat back T.V featured lots of Bollywood including a great hindy comedy with cameos from Denise Richards and Sylvester Stallone. This included some great footage of him kicking some Indian ass and it was all set in The United States. However great the Stallone and Richards movie was, it had nothing on the all Celine Dion music video channel. Considering it appears that Celine only had about 10-12 music videos they all played at least 7-8 times. The worst part was that a large amount of people on the plane were definitely watching non-stop repeat Celine....Barf.I hope everyone gets the chance to ride the Indian airways.
