If it is anything like Mumbai you will need to take your own toiletpaper and plenty of disenfectant. The spread between classes is very wide in Mumbai at least. Look for a "little America" style arrangement.

Do u mean Bangalore (India)?

Anyway, India is a Sh*T HOLE of a place to Fly into & I can't imagine living there & would never subject my family to those conditions!
Bangalore being their IT Capital, so to say, we always usually get a hand generated "Load Sheet", cuz their Computers are always down or who knows!
You end up repeating yourself a lot....they give you the impression that they "totally" understood what you said but turn around and do exactly what you didn't want them to do! "But Wat to doo"

Also, hygiene, is not one of their's "Fortes"!

But if you want to go that far check out your options in the GCC or Gulf States too.

Best of Luck!

Fly Safe Ya'll!
