Jet Lite

Jet Lite was previously known as Air Sahara after it was bought over by Jet Airlines. It is a low- cost airline meant for people who want to fly but don’t want to spend a huge chunk of their salaries for it. It is a decent airline, though quite functional, but that is something that can be expected from it since it proclaims it is ‘no-frills’. The services are quite as expected from low- cost airlines and nothing exceptional is usually noticed.

The ground staff and the fight attendants are all efficient and know their jobs well; though they are not overly- friendly, as is the case with expensive airlines. Aircrafts are clean and well- looked after. Flights are on time. However, everything one eats on the flight has to be bought; but that is okay considering the cheap flight tickets. The snacks are priced reasonably and are of decent quality. In- flight magazines are provided to fliers.

A lot of fliers complain about the shopping that happens on flights of Jet Lite as it is basically useless. Also, the official website of the airlines could do with a face- lift considering that it is not very use- friendly. Another thing that there have been complaints about is that seats are cramped and it becomes difficult to sit for a long time because of the lack of legroom. Perhaps, Jet Lite could look into it and come up with solutions.

Overall, experience of flying with Jet Lite is mostly good.

Jet Airways

This is an airline which flies both domestic ad international routes. Fliers flying domestic routes have given mixed responses when it came to describing their experience with Jet Airways. It is a mid- range airline with mid- range priced tickets which are not exactly rock- bottom. When it started out, Jet Airways had received a lot of adulation and accolades for being a great airline, but it seems that it has not been able to keep up to it. The reason for this may be many, but the buying-out of Air Sahara may be a case to point.

Anyways, though most flights usually depart and arrive on time, delays are being reported more and more frequently. Also, a lot of passengers have complained about the lack of helpfulness on the part of flight attendants on Jet Lite, which is something that should not be ignored. Flight attendants are not attentive and seem to have nothing to do. There are times when the bell is rung and no fight attendant arrives to know what the issue is about. What’s more, food quality is not good too.

However, there are good things about Jet Airways that ought to be noted. The official website is very user- friendly and booking air tickets is a cake walk. Also the staff at most check- in counters is helpful and friendly. Overall, an average experience of flying with Jet Airways is all one can be assured of. Perhaps its time for the airline to gear up and make itself noticed.
