Hi Guys,

Although I have a bit of time, about three months I wanted to find out what I can do at or around the Delhi airport. I land there around 9.30pm (Sunday) and my next flight out is at 6.30am the following morning. I'd just like to relax/nap, two Ss (I don't shave) and have a decent meal (Chole Bhatore and Lassi would be just awesome). Please let me know what you suggest.


Thanks,
Sharief

Asif bhai, The time, place and airline is not by choice. Have a family wedding in July, American only connects thru Delhi and had some miles that I wanted to use up. For now, I do not have ANY plans, I'd just hang out at the airport, worst case. If there is a reasonable hotel nearby, I may hang there for the few hours.

Like I said, its about three months away, July 5th. So, I stand corrected, its actually a Monday evening. I fly out of Chicago on Sunday, the 4th and by the time the world revolves and I land in Delhi, it is 8.30pm on the evening on Monday, July 5th. I figure about an hour to get thru customs, immigration and harassment. Should be out around 9.30pm and have till about 4am to catch a 6.35am Jet air flight to Hyderabad.

Inder, No plans yet for Bangalore. Have a family wedding to attend and I've not been home in two years. So, focusing on spending all that time with my folks. Have in-laws in Bangalore, maybe we'll visit, but don't know yet.
