AIR INDIA First Class and Business Class Seat reviews

AIR INDIA BUSINESS CLASS SEAT REVIEW   :   BOEING 777-300ER

Disappointed is being generous when I rate the seat and whole business class experience on Air India. I flew this week JFK to New Delhi and back for business and it was the worst flight and service I have seen. There were five movies to watch in English, that means at even 2 hours per movie that is ten hours of movies for a fifteen hour flight? The food was mediocre and service horrible. They gave us the duvets to take care of the beds and setting them up ourselves. I will never recommend them or fly with them again. The condition of the seats is dated already.

These Air India seats were terrible compared to Lufthansa and US Airways. The seats do not lie completely flat like they do in the other two airlines and the controls were very hard to operate. The movie selection was not nearly as good either. While better then coach, I would avoid this aircraft.

DEL-ORD and back. Cabin clean, seats don't recline 180 it's nearer 170. IFE is not that friendly. Flight comfortable, food excellent. Privacy good. Service not up to the standard. AI 777 product is good for long haul journey.

Seats don't recline 180 degrees flat, but are comfortable. IFE is a bit complicated but everyone should be able to figure it out. There is some privacy when sleeping, but not as nice as in a pod.

The seats are in a small pod so that when your seat folds flat, your head is in a private space which reduces light and noise. Used them on flights from Chicago ORD to Frankfurt FRA and then on to Delhi. Same two legs back to ORD. I agree that the controls were difficult to figure out, and business class was not full on any flights so we could all spread out.

The first impression is that the seats do not recline 180 degrees - more like 170 degrees, the recline controls are sticky and not very clear. The footrest does not seem to be fully extended. The video screen controls were something else - best not even attempted. I am yet to come across such a complicated remote system.

NYC - BOM and back in business class. The seats are wide and go flat. The upright position is complicated and seems to vertical or half way back which made for poor eating comfort. The cabin are mostly 50% full so its easy to get and empty seat along side which makes it better.

These are new seats in shells on a new long-range Boeing 777. They went completely flat and allowed for a good night's sleep. The seats are wide and stylishly upholstered, have good padding and a nice headrest, and come with a very large personal TV screen on the shell back of the seat in front. There is also a dividing panel between each seat which you can raise if you want more privacy
