British Airways is my new favorite airline. Why you ask? It's because I went all the way from Boston to Delhi, a long flight that could have been a terrible disaster smoothly without any hiccups. They happened to sit me next to the only other person on the first leg who was going all the way through London to Delhi, and of course she became my friend. Annie and I were able to talk the whole time and she gave me sage advice on my time in Delhi. More than anything it was just great to talk to someone who has been there before.
Secondly, I had those little TV's on the back of my seat...i have never had one of those in all of my international flights. Can you believe that! The head supports were so great they blew my neck support out the window. I was sat in the second to last row, which only had two seats in the row and tons of extra leg room.
Then Annie and I relaxed in the airport cafe until our next flight that again was very smooth. The flight wasn't full so there was an extra seat in between my neighbor and me a British guy Joel. He was going to be in Delhi for two weeks doing some research for his engineering degree. I felt much better after meeting both Joel and Annie.
Although I got in almost an hour late because of a delayed leg in London because of Engine failures...the engine did not fail on the flight, and all was well. The only other strange thing was that upon landing in Delhi they walked up and down the aisles fumigating the cabins. I couldn't hear well enough to understand why. First of many strange things to come that I will never understand :)
