28th May 2007 :: “Which way to our plane?”

The crew seems confused about which plane they have to go to. I read in the newspaper a few days ago that Capt. Gopinath of Air Deccan is defending its open seating arrangement but I personally hate it. In past I have mentioned how I find it a little odd that people start queuing up long before the boarding starts. This time we had to do the same so that we could all sit together. In such a scenarios the seats that are occupied first are the window seats and then the aisle seats, leaving the one in the middle empty. The last time I remember I had to request some one to swap seat with me so I could sit next to Mira. Well Mr. Gopinath, you may think it is fine but I personally feel it is a major inconvenience; maybe you should also take a lesson from other airlines that give the flyers a choice of seat right when they are booking the ticket on the net.
