The man noted that he was disappointed while flying business class from the city of Delhi.

Adam shared what he observed about the food, wifi and other aspects of the flight, saying:

“Air India Business Class Delhi to KL was disappointing. Practically a Prem Econ seat if that [did not] lie flat, warm champagne, no wifi, and no in-flight details on how long to the destination. The staff and the main meal were lovely.”

"Absolutely nothing would encourage me to take an Air India flight! Not because of the recent tragedy, but cabin maintenance, ground staff service, and business class offerings are not upto standard."

Goutham Ravi said:

"Yep..older aircraft but refurbished seats..wouldn't go to the extent of calling it PE space wise but surely accessories. IfE wise it would be PE level."

Vikas Chaudhary said:

"Do you expect a lie flat for 3-4 hours of flight ? I can’t think of more than a handful of airline who offer it specially in western world."

Christian Goeller said:

"It’s like a 5 hour flight… air India has plenty to criticize but you’re on an A320, expecting lie-flat is laughable. It’s expected to be on par with a U.S. domestic first class, which looks about right from your photos. They don’t deserve criticism in this instance, IMO."

Raj Gahlot said:

"That’s very common on small transit flights. Business class doesn’t always mean lie flat. Look before you Purchase."
