Jet Airways B737-900ER Premiere Class (Business) Mumbai-Dubai
CHECK-IN I had tried to checkin the night before through jetairways.com, but received an error message. At 7:10am I was at one of Jet Airways’ Première class counters in Zone P of Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport. My flight to Dubai was scheduled to take offat 9:20am. Economy JetPrivilege members check-in at Zone K. There was no queue and within minutes of my arrival I was handed my boarding pass. Had there been a line, I had the option to wait at one of the lounge chairs in this area.
There is an exclusive immigration counter for passengers of business class and upwards. Being second in queue, by 7:30am I was browsing through duty-free. There was enough time at hand to grab a hearty breakfast at the east wing of GVK Lounge near Gate 44.
BOARDING Boarding was to commence at 8:20am at Gate 69A, as was mentioned on my boarding card. However, there was no sign of the ground staff until an 8:37am announcement informed us that boarding was moved to Gate 46. I breezed through the separate line for première class passengers and was in my seat by 8:50am.
