Yes, I think we are starting JFK to Accra around Dec 1st I believe. I think it is 5 times a week, along with ATL--Dakar, Senegal and onto Joberg, South Africa.

Sorry to hear about your bad Chennai flight. Hopefully the entertainment problems will be largely a thing of the past with the new digital systems they are installing on Boeings.

Can't comment on the food however, since I'm a lowly domestic pilot. I would imagine your meal from India was locally sourced...I can't imagine they brought meals all the way from CDG.

Hope you try us again in the future...

I ended up in Chennai twice in September. Having to airline on BA and LH in business class.

The food, service and entertainment on the BA 777 was fantastic.

The LH 744 was not as good as BA, however the food, service and entertainment were still of very high quality.

I am sorry to say this but US carriers cannot compete with the likes of BA, Virgin, Emirates, Cathay etc.etc. especially in the premium classes.

Hey Metro why did you bypass on the 11?

I can't wait. They'll soon have the rest of the halfwits from Air India and other easily-influenced RTers mimicking their non-standard, backwoods, North Virginia drivel on the radio. That's the ones who aren't already doing it, that is.
Speaking of which, I see the FOM is being whipped into some sort of respectability lately. One of the notices exhorts us all to use standard RT phraseology. A bit hard with all the seppos on the air....!!
Jokes, guys, just jokes is all..... really.
...gonna back this lil ol' puppy up with reverse thrust, yerrrrr....

This being discussed over on pprune....
