Introduction


Hello again, here comes part 6 of my India series.

Here are the previous related FRs:  



After a weekend in Mumbai celebrating my friends' wedding and going for a visit to Pune, it was time to move to the North of India, most exactly to Rajastan (I originally wanted to spend more time in Rajastan, but I had an unexpeted reschedule)…

I picked my flights and airlines solely on a price basis. Although I had read bat comments about SpiceJet and tried to avoid them whenever I could. This ended up granting me the oportunity to try a myriad of Indian carriers, as you may see during this series. 
  
Anyhow, back to business. 


At BOM's Terminal 1


Since I was flying GO Air this time (now called "Go First"), I would depart from Terminal 1 rather than from the very modern Terminal 2 (which was covered by my arrival to India - enroute to Hyderabad FRs).

 Reaching the terminal I had this great view of BOM's ATC tower (more than 80 metres tall!)

And then we made it to the very modern terminal. I was specting less for a LCC terminal to be honest.

After crossing the first security check, I made it to the check in desks, where I managed to drop my bag without much trouble.

Then it was time to cross security, which took its time, but no problem, I had time to spare.
Once I cleared security I made it to the VIP  where I took some food and drinks (hence no problem with the lack of service that flying with LCC implies).

Then it was on to my gate…

It was a bus gate…

after a fair time we were bussed to a new-ish A320NEO


BOARDING


It's always a pleasure to board like this when the weather permits. (at least for AVGeeks like me)



I made it to my seat. It was more than enough for the hop to Jaipur, maybe not that cool for longer hops. There were a lot of stuff at the seatback pocket. 



Airline magazines in india were quite detailed



Enroute to jaipur


Boarding was completed, we pushed back…and then we took some time to make it to the runway (traffic is a thing in Mumbai), we took off from RWY 27 and banked right to the north.
 



I found this view odd… all the (air and light) pollution trapped in a layer of mist/smog/whatnot, and the clear skies above. (This was the view for most of the flight basically)

But as I was hammered from the partying/travelling so I slept most of the time. 

I woke up when we were about to land

And then we deboarded to a bus, this time to a chillier weather than that in Mumbai

Our trusty PWs (their sound was great BTW)

Conclusion

GO Air did the job. I don't think I'd enjoy their seats for flights longer than 2hours, but it was more than perfect for the domestic hops in India.

BOM Terminal 1 was better than expected for an LCC Terminal.

JAI also did the job. It was also conveniently located near the city centre.

Thanks for reading, saludos!
