    Hand over to Emirates Dubai. None know to manage a company in India with all resource available within the country. Not to blame the Govt since once it was suppose to be privitized and staff in India went on strike .. why they cry now.

    When the government of India will get the sense that the government's job is not running an airlines? Some of the poor countries may do so because they may not have
    rich people or corporations to run an airlines. AI was running at a loss for very long time, and every day adding more debt. This is the best time to re-organize AI under some private hands, and let the government wash off their hands from this flying mess, causing problems to the paid
    passengers on a regular basis.

    Rizwan, Mangalore/Dubai: Please be informed that these people are leaving in this world only to proclaim unwanted messages. They are far away from the reality / truth. They just wait for a news article to publish and immediately write negative (against) comments i.e. if the news say wrong they write good if the news say anything positive they write bad. I say we are fools to follow on their messages, don’t pay attention to them, remember b****** d*** seldom bite.

    We have ill economy because of our strikes for silly reason. We misuse the rights of democracy. We follow reservations (Jobs) instead of merits. Our rulers and their families are misusing the power of democracy. We are following corrupt system from the day of Independence. Our new rules are increasing the source of our public servants. Sincerely....Thank God we are still leading as Asia's third largest economy.

    If any employees of an Organization goes on strike for non-payment of their salaries or basic facilities we can justify their agony. But fighting for something which only Management has right to decide means they can’t garner support for their strike. Instead of keeping us on guess every time regarding flight journey or schedule, better our Central Government close down the International Air India Sectors once for all so that other Air Carrier can gain some momentum. We may have to suffer for few days because of Pilots’ strike but this time all of us should support UPA Government to control these Pilots so called Pirates

    Emirates & Flydubai should consider DXB-IXE routes. Passengers will prefer these Airlines because they provide excellent serivces.
    Air India Express should go bankrupt & get themselves dissolved.

    No one either Aviation Minister or piolts or AI Express is bothered how much inocents / passengers are getting distrubed. Other end AI Express is not permitting other air lines to fly kuwait. Only for name sake AI Express is budget flight but in reality blood sucking flight. Ticket rates are very higher, no luxury / confortable, no good food to the passengers.

    Other great thing noticed is always rates are higher to Mangalore rather than calicut. Logically either rate should be same at the wost or rates should be lesser.

    Only need to prefer direct flight to Mangalore to fly with kidds, no other benfits.

    THIS IS THE GREAT ACHIEVEMENT OF AVIATION MINISTER AJITH SINGH.

    HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IS HIS RESPONSIBILITY AS A AVIATION MINISTER. HE JUST MAKING MONEY BY SITTING.

    PUBLIC SHOULD PUNISH HIM WELL. THEN ONLY HE MAY SOLVE THIS ISSUE.

    CORRUPT UPA TEAM IS SLEEPING. NOBODY CAN'T DO ANYTHING.

    ALL ARE BUSY IN SCAM,CORRUPTION,LAND MAFIYA,SUPPORTING TERRORISM,ETC ETC.
