I have just come back from a holiday in New York and I travelled with Air India as they were the cheapest I could find (on the website www.241.com). Despite the cheap prices, the service from the crew was what you would expect - friendly and helpful.

The food on the flight was very good especially for curry lovers but if you don't like curry then there are alternative meals. In-flight entertainment mainly consisted of India films and programs with English subtitles. I did not enjoy this but I tend to sleep on long flights anyway so it didn't matter to me.

I do have one major gripe about Air India and that is the long queues when checking in. Flying from Heathrow wasn't too bad but on the return journey I had to queue up for 2 hrs before I managed to check in!

I would certainly travel with Air India and I can't see any reason to pay more for other air lines when the service is the same.
