its direct air india flight. it will stop for 2 hours @ london. no need to change plane, no wait.
I think travelocity.co.in is offering cheapest air fairs according to my survey. but to get maximum benefit book all ur tickets separately, as they r offering 3000 rs discount on each booking.
good luck. DR. SHARMA

Booking it in 30 - 40 days fetches you 5 - 10 k less price.
