“Till we boarded it was smooth. My mother and kids wanted to have some drinks on board. Even after my wife and my mother kept on calling both the servers, none of them responded during the entire trip. They should have added the note that they serve based on skin color only. We didn't book any discounted or free trip. Never again.”
