The King of Good Times
For a course which was scheduled to begin on Wednesday morning in Mumbai, I was sitting in my office till about 11 AM on Tuesday. Add to it the facts like
I’ve never been to Mumbai before nor did I have any clear idea about my accommodation and last but not the least, my Hindi skills (or the lack of it)
So flight was the only realistic available mode of travel.
After having heard horror stories about our so called low cost airlines, I promptly ruled out the likes of Air Deccan even from my consideration.
But ruling out Air Deccan was the easier part. The tough nut to crack was deciding which one to fly.
INDIAN tickets were available at 2900 or thereabouts and KF was about 200-300 extra.
To be honest, I was confused which one to choose. I asked my friend Madhu and he promptly and categorically said “Dei nee King Fisher dhaan nee porey, mithadhu ellam consider a pannadei)
In the end I was happy I made the right decision.
To put it in a single sentence, King Fisher rocks in every sense of the world.
Be it the chappathi air hostesses (adjective courtesy: Syam), in flight entertainment, hassles free check-in, on time take off and landing and decent food, I was mighty impressed. At a price 20-30% less than Jet Airways, I get a service which is better than Jet.
How I wish many other people had the same business sense and insight as Vijay Mallya. Sigh!!
Note:
I am told SpiceJet is good among low cost options

Hey,nice blog!!! I found a place where you can make an extra $800 or more a month. I do it part time and make a lot more than that. It is definitely worth a visit! You can do it in your spare time and make good cash. Make Extra Cash
