Indian Airlines (orange)

The domestic Indian carrier's bags double as a lifevest. Same design as many a Nepali bag (see Flight Care Aviation, Mountain Air and Yeti for examples).

Indian Airlines (grey, DNA)

Same design as the bag above, but biotechnology has taken over this strangely designed bag: lots of what appear to be double strands of DNA wriggling across the bag. I thought that the life forms were supposed to be inside the bag, not on the outside...

Indian Airlines (Shilpa)

Four different bags on a single plane: these three, plus one from Alliance Air. This one says in the gusset that this was manufactured by Shilpa.

Indian Airlines (Shilpa, light grey)

Different shade of grey, and the horizontal wire tab is covered in the same DNA design as the bag itself.

Indian Airlines (Shilpa, printing on tab)

Looks as if Shilpa saves money by covering the tabs with bits of old bags.

Indian Airlines (Ashoka)

This one was made by Ashoka.

Indian Airlines (Creation)

Indian have taken over international carrier Air India's traditional bagmaker.

Indian Airlines (ap)

This bag has an "ap" logo in the gusset.

Indian Airlines (ap, darker orange)

Same design as the bag above, but less washed-out. Didn't get caught in the monsoon?

The lighter orange asterisks are more visible on this bag than on Indian's previous effort.
