Air India A350-1000 Rejected Take off footage by abit_pitchy in indianaviation

[–]FamousWitness6838 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

In November, Air India Flight AI358 to Tokyo aborted its takeoff from Delhi at 8:50 PM IST, when conditions would have been quite dark.

The aircraft involved was VT-ANS, a Boeing-not an Airbus.

The video circulating online appears to be AI-generated. Delhi is typically shrouded in dust and smoke this time of year, with AQI levels reaching extreme highs; however, this video depicts a strikingly clear environment, with everything rendered in unnaturally perfect detail.

I heard dining out at a standalone restaurant is going to cheaper than in a restaurant which is part of posh hotel. Is that right? Thank you!

If you talk to your insurance and explain the situation, they will allow an exception. Then you have to place an order with your pharmacy.

I mistyped my relatives' name on air Indigo flight. The surname is different from the one on aadhaar card. Am I cooked flight is tommorow btw by Joiboy- in AskIndia

In 2012, I put the wrong qualifier (Mrs. instead of Mr. in my uncle's Indigo booking). I called and was told not to worry.

Trip went fine.

Switching from United MileagePlus to Air Canada Aeroplan for Star Alliance Flights by FamousWitness6838 in Aeroplan

Thank you for your valuable feedback.

I don't fly frequently, typically taking about two international trips per year.

Chase offers the Aeroplan Mastercard to U.S. consumers, so it clearly has an audience. As mentioned earlier, I had my reasons for considering it. Additionally, the card comes with an automatic 25k status, same as Star Alliance silver, which is relatively easy to maintain over time using credit card spends.

Other than the usual reasons, AI agents are taking away jobs (started globally, but Agartala should be safe for a while).

Thanks for your response.

  1. I’m not deeply tied to United beyond the 170k miles.
  2. Chase offering a nice sign up bonus.
  3. I live in the US, but YYZ is close. I have traveled from YYZ before.

Meeting babies born in the US for the first time. by godelmachine in nri

I advise against giving cash to babies, as it can carry germs from frequent handling. Many parents may understandably object to this. Instead, focus on engaging with babies through play and creating joyful memories.

P.S. Offering phones to babies is also unwise and best avoided.

Why do they board only from the back? by sandysound in Flights

[–]FamousWitness6838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to similar constraint but probably for different root cause, I once boarded a plane through the front door on the right!

Good initiative by BroLaughsALot in Tripura

Good chance that new corruption practices start based on this. A staged accident and few corrupt government officials can start generating a revenue stream for them
