Left the house at 7:45 AM to catch the 8:30 AM Coach USA shuttle to O'Hare.
All checked in and waiting at the gate by 10:40 AM - 24a and 24b.
Shared a snack pack consisting of ham & swiss sandwich, potato chips and a bottle of water.
Boarded our flight AI 126, Boeing 777-300ER and pushed back on time.
Flight was smooth but cabin crew out did themselves to do the bare minimum, including ignoring any requests for a second cup of coffee after a meal.
The food was tasty but the flight long and tedious.
We landed in Delhi at 2:30 pm on April 7 about 30 mins ahead of schedule, went through security to wait in the transit lounge for our flight to Cochin.
The flight AI 046 to Cochin on AB 320 seats 9A and 9B, was smooth also and the food good, in fact to me it was better than the international flight.
Customs and immigration through Kochi airport was quick and efficient.
Rajeesh from the local office came to meet us together with the driver Manilal and his Innova. Manilal will be our driver for the entire trip.
We checked at the Hotel Malabar House at around 10:00 PM. The hotel was beautifully converted from an old building. The hotel staff was courteous and very helpful. They had specially left the restaurant open for us just in case we wanted dinner.
All in all a very good start for our vacation through South West India.
