Vande Bharat compared to 5 star? Seriously?

Running full on Thursday morning. We just need people to have some cleanliness and manner like they show in flights. Someone needs to teach them about this. Few more changes : Train runs at ~100 kmph only. Govt should figure out how can run these at ~150. This has the potential to increase economic activity by lot

- **Tier 1** (Should Book These): Vistara (for comfort, feels, food) Indigo (for being cost effective, on time, no frills) - **Tier 2** (Doable): Air India (some planes are good now, but still inconsistent) Spicejet (if you are in luck, it's not too bad anymore) - **Tier 3** (I Don't Value My Life) Air India Express (fka Air Asia - avoid for life) Akasa (it's a great flight, as long as you assume your takeoff is at T+2 hours by default) Feel free to opine but this is how it is. I fly every month and have done so for years now. Hope this helps before you book for Diwali.
