The sorry plight of Air India - National carrierBy: arun kumar | 30-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward Is not because of ISI or Pakistan sponsored terrorism. It is because Congress party sponsored terrorism in India and because of late Indira Gandhi's flirt with socialism. This airline became a employment bureau instead of a commercial organization if going by the ratio of number of employees to aircraft. The sojourns of our leaders abroad caused AI to provide the aircrafts and sacrifice revenue even on profitable routes. How could the master be annoyed? Air India sometimes had to remove an aircraft from scheduled departure at 11th hour to accommodate travel of a VIP, thereby paying huge compensation to the passengers. The Congress party has not only done this to Air India – Remove “AIR” India follows.

During selling, gov. should give VRS to 85% of employees and remaining 15% should move back to central gov. other branches, so that private company who's going to buy AI can recruit fresh band of new employees and rename AI to New Air India, so that all NRI's and indian travellers will get some fresh breeze of interest to travel in New Air India. If not whatever spent on this white elephant will not get back even single penny.If Manmohan reads papers every day or these blogs, he can sense the anger against AI, almost 99.9% of readers against of AI, and they're not willing to travel AI any more, except if they dont find tickets or if they dont have any other options. So why should gov. waste another 10,000 crore and aga

Time to shut down Air IndiaBy: Jeff g | 30-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward This embaressment of an airline should be shut down and all its assets sold. There are enough private airline that provide superior service with lower prices. The only thing that keeping AI alive does is continue transferring the tax payers hard earned money into the bank accounts of these inept airline employees and freeloading government official.Jeff

AI employees call off strikeBy: Shadi Katyal | 30-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward Air India once the most popular and well deserved Maharaja name is now just like a cheap thirdclass bogey. It is overstaffed and rudeness the language of the day. what a pity that neither the staff nor union as well managment can manage the service.Is the managment not aware that due to indispline in all the ranks 80% of foreign travel is done by foreign lines and only illiterate first time travelers or labour class working in Gulf use the line.What a pity like everything in Indioa under the government has gone to dogs.
