Air India is India's national flag carrier. Although air transport was born in India on February 18, 1911 when Henri Piquet, flying a Humber bi-plane, carried mail from Allahabad to Naini Junction, some six miles away, the scheduled services in India, in the real sense, began on October 15, 1932. It was on this day that J.R.D. Tata, the father of Civil Aviation in India and founder of Air India, took off from Drigh Road Airport, Karachi, in a tiny, light single-engined de Havilland Puss Moth on his flight to Mumbai (then known as Bombay) via Ahmedabad.

He landed with his precious load of mail on a grass strip at Juhu. At Mumbai, Neville Vintcent, a former RAF pilot who had come to India from Britain three years earlier on a barn-storming tour, during which he had surveyed a number of possible air routes, took over from J.R.D.Tata and flew the Puss Moth to Chennai (then Madras) via Bellary.
         
Air India's First Class. The new definition of luxury
One step. Just one step on board Air India’s First Class will exemplify the true meaning of luxury. As your feet sink softly into the plush carpet, your discerning eye will take in the little extras that place our First Class on a plane far above the ordinary.

When you snuggle into your newly installed, highly comfortable, 180-degree recline, sleeperette, we will ensure that you disembark at your destination just as fresh. The two-abreast seating ensures you are always in an aisle seat or a window seat. Never in between. The ethnic interiors, you will observe, are designed to be particularly pleasing to the eye. The Air show constantly screens your flight pattern, aircraft altitude and speed. And much more.

The gracious service, on the other hand, will be, like it always is, a perfect model of efficiency and discretion, Charming, yet never intrusive.
The warm smiles, of course, are on the house.
The fine art of exclusivity

As you sit back and relax aboard Air India’s First Class, you could well be forgiven for thinking you are the only passenger on board. The First Class cabin seats just 12 passengers.

Bon Appetit!

But there is a lot more to Air India’s First Class experience before we say adieu. After a couple of stimulating cocktails, the faint clink of Royal Doulton, the world’s finest bone china, will waft down the aisle. A rare sound heard on just a few select airlines of the world. Aboard our First Class, this is followed by a fine selection of the most delectable dishes.

Take your pick from a choice of three menus that leave no taste unexplored. From succulent Grilled Lamb Chops and Parmesan Cheese Omelets to delicious Chicken Malai Kabab and the regal Shahi Korma. With a vintage wine or a smooth Champagne in accompaniment. Before you tuck in, may we make a suggestion? Indulge.

And as you unwind with a touch of Crème de Menthe or a Tia Maria you can also do all your duty-free shopping on board. Our Sky Bazaar range boasts of well-known brands and more. So step aboard, and experience the true meaning of Bon Voyage.
