Many years ago I was at a friend’s place for dinner. His wife who was working for Indian Airlines (this was before the merger) proudly took me to the kitchen where she showed me hundreds of cubes of jam and butter along with sachets of ketchup. She proudly told that she had one year’s stock of these. I remember saying to myself that an airline with a culture like this cannot last long.
