Hi folks, I have to travel frequently for official purposes. I generally go by Jet airways. I also strongly feel that since there are low air fare, we nmay be asking too much for discounted or concessional fare. Quite frankly I like to sit in the back of the air craft but opinion may varry. thanks and regards Asif ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pranav Lal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <accessindia@accessindia.org.in> Sent: Saturday, August 05, 2006 7:54 AM Subject: Re: [AI] DGCA Guidelines for Blind passengers travelling by Air
