so this is what happened to me like 2 years ago.
i reached Delhi around 1 am and my flight to Kathmandu wasn't until 10 am. I was warned by my friends to take special notice of my luggage. I asked the Jet Airways counter if my luggage will be transferred to the connecting flight to kathmandu. They said they weren't sure. So i went to the baggage claim area and told the officials that i have a 9 hrs transit and need to check if my baggage is all safe and if it will be transferred to the flight or was i to claim it here.. He started saying things in hindi to his colleauge ( nothing offensive or anthing) and he thought i was some white boy. When I looked downstairs, I could clearly see my baggage in the claim area. I was really disappointed and mad at the same time.
So i told him I need to get my bag, but he urged that i needed a visa to enter India. I told him i do not need a visa since i'm a Nepalese citizen and he let me go. I did not have to submit anything,, he just had a stamp in my passport that was all. I found my luggage was broken, i was worried that things could have gone missing but it was ok. So i went to the jet airways check in center for my ticket, i actually did not have the ticket conformation or anything with me. Those guys were very polite to me and helped me out. Next i realized was i had a good 7 and a half hour to kill so i thought of going outside with a bulky broken luggage, a hand cary and a back pack. Just as i took the airport exit i felt like i was blown air at with the hair dryer and there were people everywhere. Never in my life had i seen such crowd, so i decided to come back to the check in center i couldn't check in until 2 hours before the flight. That was the longest night of my life.
When i checked in i had to go through all the security processes which was very obvious but they stopped me right before when i was about to board my flght for missing the flight tag on my hand carry which was utter bullshit. They went through all my handcarry and stuff and made a mess of it. I was pissed but as i enetered the plane i realized Jet Airways had the best service through out the entire journey. I wouldn't mind travelling via Jet Airways if there weren't such airport bullshit but still try to avoid india.
