Its almost been a week since BIAL has started functioning. I haven't been to the new airport and hence don't have any personal experience to share. But here is some hearsay stuff from blogs and friends.
1. The new airport kicks ass!
2. The Volvo bus service (for arrivals) is fantastic. And at Rs.150 extremely affordable (for somebody who can afford air travel)
3. The Volvo bus service (for departures) is slow and at times doesn't stop at the designated places.
4. There are services like this, which come close to shuttle service, but since they provide some luxury, its for the upwardly mobile.
5. Taking a generic City Taxi or the all Logan fleet is extremely costly.
5. ATC still has some issues and flights do get delayed or routed to the HAL airport.
Looks like BIAL had an OK first week.

Airlift is not functional yet. One of my colleague tried it many times, but no answer. then, there is no volvo between 12 midnight and 4am. Then you have to spend Rs 700 to reach the airport. (for flights till 6am)
The parking fee is Rs 450/-, no sign boards no where to be seen saying this charge. Hope soon these things will be ok.
