Aeroflot :-)

Off to India for 75 days to get a prototype ready for a new business that I am in the process of starting up. I am extremely excited about this trip, especially as I get to spend Diwali in India after a long time.

The only flight that could get me to India in time for Diwali and that was not full was Aeroflot :-) I think its going to be an interesting experience ... I have heard mixed feedback about the airline, but atleast they have banned smoking on-board (In 2002 !)

I found this Letterman Top-10 list online. Its quite hilarious !

Top Ten things Aeroflot can do to improve it's image

10. Shoo the bats out of the lavatories
9. Promise delivery within two days
8. Stop asking smaller passengers to sit in the laps of larger passengers
7. No longer have Moscow to Leningrad flight connect through Dallas-Fort Worth
6. Modify plane to resemble giant airborne potato
5. Stewardesses with necks
4. Water down the captain's vodka
3. Remove Chernobyl cured ham from inflight menu
2. Paint over Gorbachev-inspired red mark on top of fuselages
1. More Aero, less Flot
