Bangalore airport

Amma and Anna came with me to pick up the bro, and we all enjoyed the whole experience. The road is fantastic from Hebbal, comparable to US freeways imo, except for a few quirks here and there. Parking especially is beautifully done, and so is the Volov bus facility.

The approx 37 km drive to Bangalore airport was done in under 45 minutes, albeit at 12 in the night. If I recall right, getting to the old airport from home was taking comparable time. But oh, the drive is fantastic. If anything, I felt the wagonR needed more power/speed, I didn't go beyond 90 kmph for fearing of hurting the brother's car engine.

The bus conductors were standing in the corridor and trying to lure passengers to try the bus. There were empty parking slots, and many. The arrival and departure areas are wide and spacious, with plenty of standing place for people who are waiting for their folks to come out.

Well done, BIAL
