Spicejet or Jet Airways for US$20 more?

Hey Guys, I'm after your wise opinion with regards to my one domestic flight I'll be taking while in India (Chennai to Delhi). I have the option of either a Spicejet flight or a Jet Airways flight that suit my itinerary, and the Jet Airways flight is about $20 more, what would YOU do?

Do confirm if is Jetlite or Jet Airways. Either way opt for Jet.

If its Jet then you getting a full fare airline so you would be served food etc.. compared to Spice which is a low cost one. Also Jets is usually on time with much less delays compared to Spice.

Its Jet Airways... I think there was a JetLite flight a little later than the SpiceJet flight too, for around the same price as SpiceJet...

So do you recommend: Jet Airways first, JetLite second, and SpiceJet third?

there is nothing wrong with spicejet, Ive flown with them often and I have never had a problem with delays. However chennai to delhi is a long flight, so having a meal will help to break up the monotony as there isnt any inflight entertainment on Indian domestic airlines. Go for Jet
