A second posted, "Travelled once on Air India, and they did not serve any food for 5 hours on an 8-hour flight from Sydney to Singapore. Why? They didn't have enough food for everyone on the flight. No water either. Horror story!"
"You should fly from Mumbai. They use ex-Etihad aircraft, which are in better conditions. Also, yes, New York is infamous for terrible catering. I experienced thee while flying with Air France, so you can't blame Air India for that, but yes, the old aircraft a terrible renovation quickly," said a third.
A fourth posted, "When I traveled last year, two bathrooms were not working and same condition as you described. Never again, Air India."
