Business Class - Singapore to Delhi on the Dreamliner - Air India Trip Report

Having a job that makes you travel a lot has its own perks. For someone like me, who loves aviation in general and flying in particular, getting to fly on different aircraft to various destinations around the world is definitely something I look forward to.

This trip report is for my return flight on the last company sponsored visit to Singapore (SIN) in the Business class. Since I've already flown Singapore Airlines in the past on this sector, I wanted to try a new product that was being offered on the route by Air India, the Boeing 787 - Dreamliner!
