यो विषयमा साझामा धेरै पटक कुरा भइसकेको छ। साझामा सर्च गर्न अलि अप्ठ्यारो नै छ, तर गुगलबाट हेर्दा यस्तो देखियो http://www.google.com/search?q...

Didn't have much problem. But whatever you buy in duty free prior to getting to the Delhi airport, they might give u hard time.

jadaaa delhi ta hoina aauda chahi delhi bhayera aako thiye.. They treated me very good was very shocked to see their attitude. I read that Delhi airport wanted to change their image and be the best customer service oriented airport in the world. And I can surely say that they were changing their attitude.

Delhi airport is very good these days - in fact better than a lot of European and Mid Eastern airports after the opening of their new international terminal. The service is also great coz many young professionals are employed there, both airline staff and airport staff. Only thing that can be a little uncool might be the hands frisking of those Indian security personel that are not polite! Everything else should be fine. Good Luck!

Don't know how it was before but Delhi airport is great these days.  Like Happy said, most of the airport and airlines staff are young and are very professional.  Lot better than many middle east airport.  Also, no need to worry about baggage transfer.  You can chek it all the way to ktm.  Enjoy you trip.

I think  IGI as one of the best airport. Spacious, young staffs etc. Was treated professionally. Much more better than what I was expecting (because of the rumors). With a good luck, I hope you will have good time.

We visited India (my native country) in Aug. 2008. On the way in, we had a two stop flight (Raleigh-[Disallowed String for - castist references disallowed]k-Brussels-Chennai) in. However, on the way back to Raleigh, we had to add Delhi airport into the mix. Because we were coming from Chennai, we had to go to the domestic terminal and transfer to the international. Due to security concerns, the Indian government made you take your own luggage on the bus to the International terminal. However, this restriction was lifted before we traveled to Delhi. The ignorant airport staff said that the restriction was still in place, even when you could have just left your baggage for them to transfer. When we took all of our baggage to the international terminal at around 9 PM, the doorman told us that we could not enter because our flight was only much later. After some prodding, he reluctantly let us in. Unfortunately, inside the terminal, there were 30-odd seats, most of which were taken up. We spent a while standing or sitting on our baggage. Jet Airways would not let us check in for a while, so we looked for something to do. This is a lousy airport, so there was nothing to do, and the only restaurant available was a Subway. Their sandwich was probably the best thing so far. After a few hours, we checked in and passed through GIANT security lines. The terminal was in a circular shape, with shops in the middle. There was nothing except greasy fast food and Rolex watch shops. Useful for 12 in the morning... In addition, the terminal was very noisy and crowded even at that time, making it impossible to sleep in the chairs. The chairs, were however, nice to sit on. The crowd noise drowned out any announcements, and missing your flight was a very real thing there. After 3 hours of shivering (yes, it was cold), we boarded our Jet Airways flight to Brussels at ~3 AM. All in all, Delhi airport is a disorganized mess.
