      @TheLayoverAviation  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Am glad! There is actually so much aircraft trivia around..!
      Let me explain slightly better about the “ding”.
      Each airline manual will tell you something different but the basics are the same: the most critical phases are take off and landing. Once you hear the “ding” cabin crew now know that the gear is up and the most critical phase is over. Vice versa for landing: cabin crew should be focussed and prepared for a possible emergency and how to respond.
      Airlines can decide to either have this noise or not on their Airbus aircraft.
      What will also happen is that the exit signs above the doors/emergency windows will switch off after take off or on before landing with gear retraction/deployment.
      Try to pay attention on your next Airbus flight!

    Switzerland is expensive, not for everything though. You have to look at the whole picture, what people earn, the value of the currency, which city you live in, etc Zurich is dear but at the same time they also earn more there than other places. Also some countries like to rip us off because they are under the illusion that all Swiss are rich, which is not true. I saw a list somewhere a couple of weeks ago stating there are 8 reasons why our country is more expensive than other parts of Europe. I need to find that list again. I used to live in Sydney for a long time but moved back to Switzerland in 2008, i missed my mountains, i live in the east part of the country. Love it!

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You are completely right.
      It all depends on each individuals’ situation.
      My opinion is mostly based on the regular Joe transferring in ZRH or visiting, not for the lovely Swiss citizens.
      Water is a comodity I am forced to buy at airports as I need to carry plenty on flights. And maybe a sandwich. So I kind of compare the prices based these basic items. And trust me, I’ve seen insane prices at airports.
      I perfectly understand why you missed home, your country is breathtaking. I’ve been constantly moving and still there is no bette place then home.

    Very well made video. Yes, SWISS is famous for their inflight service but in our case they goofed royally when we were coming back to Dubai from Zurich in 2005 (ZRH-DXB-MCT flight, don't know if they still operate this sector even now). We had pre-ordered/pre-booked Asian vegetarian meals but at the time of serving the meals (some time after taking off from Zurich), we were told that they do not have any asian veg meals for us. That really took us by surprise and we were wondering how to handle the hunger of our 5 year old daughter. Must admit that the cabin crew apologized and immediately swung into action by providing us with some couscous dish with vegetables. Have not flown SWISS ever since. Also I don't remember getting any swiss chocolates. One more query - I fail to understand why special meals such as asian veg, kosher etc are given much before to people who had pre-ordered them and not with other meals. I am sure there must be a logical reason but I am not aware of it.

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The logistics behind special meals and providing them to the right person on the right flight are absolutely massive. I’m sure the whole system has improved from back in 2005!
      It’s easy to give pre-ordered meals first as they come loaded in special containers away from other meals and are loaded together in the same oven. This is for the crew to easily count them and ensure they are on board. It would be a hassle to mix them with ordinary meals and deliver them together with non requested meals.
      There are some interesting documentaries on youtube about this topic.
