Dear Sir,
I travelled by Air India Express Fllight IX 402 from Kochi to Mumbai today(11/1/2012). We boarded the flight at 9.30 AM. To our horror, we found all passengers covering their nose with what ever they could get. The cabin was stinking of very pungent smell of rotten fish. The smell was so strong and foul that some of the passengers were about to vomit or vommitted. When we spoke to cabin crew, they informed that the flight previous to ours coming to Kochin carried fish and the smell leaked into the cabin.
Apart from we Indians who have very high level of toleration, there were a number of foreign tourists who were also subjected to this experience. I wonder what impression these outsiders will carry about our national airline and the hygiene standards of we Indians.
May I request you to look into this issue so as to bring to book those responsible for such acts which bring disrepute our national air liner.
