Silk Air a good choice for travel to Chennai

Just returned from a trip to Chennai,it was good value for money.For the oneward journey was upgraded to business class,and food,seating,service was very nice,they managed to get /serve some vegetarian food in quick time.As there was no in flight entertainment-I could catch on some pending work.The in flight service was great.
At a return fare of S$464/- this was worth it.On return as the flight was full,managed an emergency window seat which was quite comfortable,they did provide a lounge access pass,again proving value for money.The
The downside-no FFP and no ticket changes.if they can lower the fares a bit ,then it would give jet airways a run for its money.Except jetairways has In flight entertainment and FFP accrual,but budget conscious travelers with set dates,can save a lot of money combined with the fabulous service and these fares.On the return flight,while service in general was ok,except one air hostess farah chew seemed to have got up from the wrong side,as she was not interested in service at all.
SATS premier lounge at Terminal 1 is better than in Terminal 2.
Clipper lounge in Chennai was as usual,not much choices

Different strokes

Just returned from a multi city tour to India.My Singapore India flight was on JetAirways .Stayed at the Accord Metropolitan in Chennai,a wonderful hotel in the heart of the city.Managed by a Singaporean-Mr Foo,it was comfortable and worth the money spent.Mr Foo and his wife made us very comfortable and he is bringing further improvements like wifi.Any complaints?Maybe the Breakfast spread -it can be more sumptuous or the display can be better ,did not know they offer Dosas until asked (It was available as part of the regular breakfast-just not displayed),another grouse if minor was the lack of hot water in the evenings.Though our stay was comfortable and enjoyable overall.

Went for a day trip to Tirupati by a coach through APTDC left at 5.30am and returned at 20.30 hours with a good darshan.Except for the food,the trip was comfortable and well organised darshan.

Flew Paramount Airways to Hyderabad,while the flight was comfortable,it was nowhere near Business Class-good old economy class in a full service airline!The Hyderabad airport is clean and good.

Stayed at NKM's Grand Central-it was nowhere near as good as the reviews,but still value for money.Service left a lot to be desired.We asked them for an internet card,and it never arrived even after 24 hours.The morning breakfast started at 8 am,and we could not enjoy it as we had an early morning meeting.pricewise the hotel was ok.

Took the jetairways flight to Bhopal from Hyderabad,it was on time and full load.Wonder why they can't have a direct flight to Bhopal?While the jetairways flight from Bhopal to Mumbai was a budget one with buy your own meal.

Took the jetairways flight from mumbai to Singapore-The Mumbai terminal has improved leaps and bounds.Good to see change creeping in.The lounges can be better.
