For the narrated type of videos, you are at the top of quality. So glad I don't have to see you eat or drink like many others who can't seem to keep their face out of the camera. Well done. I am now a subscriber.
Possibly one of the only real aviation reviews on TH-cam seems like the rest are taking the “sam chui” approach where its reviews for hire keep up the great work and never sell out please!
I am so happy that Gulf Air redeemed itself...As I am able to see aircraft take off and land from Bahrain every single day from my home, and could literally have seen your flight pass, it was very cool to see the outline of my home in your video. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✈️🇧🇭🇧🇭🇧🇭. Wonderful video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That beautiful city is the eternal city of Baghdad, Iraq. The Tigris allows for the clear illumination of the city lights! Once again great video and hope you can visit us in Iraq. Iraqi Airways are getting 10 787s & 10 Max & 3 more A220-300s. Thanks again for another great video!
Just started watching your videos and subscribed. Liking what I see so far! Keep the good, unbiased and fair review content coming. I'll be going back and watching your older content for sure :)
LOL... I actually heaved a sigh of relief for you. I've actually flown on GF twice in my life (SIN-SYD-SIN on the A340s) and they were quite honestly pretty horrid. None of the crew were motivated (mainly the foreign ones) and the Bahrainis couldn't care less. The foreigners weren't treated well by the airline so that went a little to explain the situation. I got chatty with 2 FAs from Singapore so the 3 of us later met up in Sydney after the flight for coffee. I've viewed the airline's rebirth with fascination afterwards and your videos have proven that they still need to weed out the old guards in order for genuine change to happen.
That seat looks great and very comfortable. Breakfast is my least favourite meal on airlines in general, mushroom smell reminds me of hospital kitchens. l know what you mean 👍
Glad to know that your trip was 'uneventful' in a good way this time around. The last sector frm BKK to Bahrain proves time and again that it only takes one bad apple to spoil the whole bunch. I hope Gulf Air has terminated any rude and incompetent crew.
Overall, really happy with the site. Keep it up. My only suggestion is to post the menus from the resorts/hotels/flights on a website in a manner similar to the one the Jeb Brooks does. I suspect it will also drive traffic back to the TH-cam channel.
I am looking to make a website but honestly just don't have the time with my current edit/travel schedule. Hopefully sometime in the summer. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
It's like falling off a bike - it's best if you get straight back on, so by having to travel with Gulf again for your connection, at least you were able to get a more rounded view of what they offer. Plus the remediation you mention in your comments on the other video suggest they're not all bad - you certainly wouldn't get your range of experiences from a sponsored channel!
Hey there is a mistake in timeline, the airport isn't called Manama international Airport its called Bahrain International Airport and the airport isn't located in Manama its muharraq.
I flew from bkk to Bahrain in June in business class. I also got a warning about filming. But on my leg to Frankfurt they were perfectly OK with it... as well as on my turn around leg in late June the crew even offered to take my picture in my seat.
I’ve flown GF a few times about 8 years ago because they had the best biz ticket prices, way cheaper than Emirates, Qatar, & Etihad. The planes at the time were nothing to write home about, let me tell ya. Have to head to the UK in November, so I’ll have to give them a second look.
Crazy thing about BAH Airport Lounge is that they only accept Amex Platinum if issued in the Middle East. No Priority Pass. And entrance fee is as expensive as it gets. So I stayed at the capsule hotel around the corner.. much better choice...
@@tfft thank you for posting the videos I should have posted. But I have to admit I came 100% unprepared to that flight (both legs.. MXP-BAH and BAH-BKK) not expecting the whole disaster I went through ✌🏻
"I mean.........this flight had to be better than the last one right?" LMAO such low standards to beat XD At least you got a much better experience though!
You should get one of those "eye glass" style hidden cameras. That way, you can make your flight reports even more unbiased. The crew will have no idea you are even filming.
I have multiple small cameras but image quality takes a massive hit with them in low light conditions (which it is on a plane 95% of the time) so I never use them for flight reviews. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Certainly hope you sent complaint to airline head office with copy of both videos. That way they can see what a good crew and an arrogant one is like to passengers.
I've been told "airbus a320neo" in general is ok but never good as a business class chair! i mean why would i pay the price of 1500$+ for a chair that doesn't go full bed, i believe ... pass for this model in general.
@@tfft yep, why would i pay 1500$+ for an economy chair that is named business chair with benefits while i can pay the same amount on Omani Air Boeing 737-800 V1, or Qatar Boeing 777! it's not my problem if they give less space for the same price as a spacious space on other airways companies!
Unfortunately this review is not much help to me as I cannot afford to travel business class. I would have liked to see what economy seating is like and the service as well. However after that last review of Gulf Air I am sure I will be avoiding the Airline for now.
@@tfft that's so cool haha, I've never heard of it before, thanks! Also thank you for making these videos, I have just found your channel through the Gulf Air reviews, I really appreciate them! I'm actually from Bahrain, that's basically what made me watch these reviews (really embarrassing xD) and I've personally had similar bad experiences with them in the past, which is why I've just been flying on other airlines since. I've read your update and that really made me happy that they've reached out and acknowledged their issues. I hope they actually address them and provide their customers with a better flying experience. Thanks again, and keep doing what you're doing, it'll surely have a positive impact on flying experience!
I personally travel with gulf air becoz this is the best airline for me and my son.Cabin crews always give importance to each and every passenger....o always prefer Gulf air from SAUDIA to PAKISTAN.... Bcz i love travel via instead of direct
At some points I agreed with you , however certain points looks too much exaggerated. You get what you paid for.. Opinions may differ, this is just my thoughts.
Personally I would appreciate this video more if your critique were not so overly critical or condescending. Your unscripted comments left me feeling somewhat underwhelmed whilst watching the video. Good luck with your channel though.
Not sure if you commented on the wrong video? This was a nice flight and a positive trip report- there were no ‘overly critical’ comments and honestly I don’t even know who or what I’d be condescending towards in a trip report video. Also, the entire narration is scripted… so not sure what that means either. Really do think you’ve commented on the wrong video lol.
Subscribed. Much better reviews than all the prissy and sponsored reviewers. Don’t change as your channel gets bigger.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

🤣 Yah I also am not a fan of watching people eat. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@tfft It is more than that, it's the desire for their face to override the focus of the content, and that is what makes me appreciate your work.
I can definitely say that you are a rising star here on the TH-cam aviation reviewer section. Bring it on!!
Thanks very much for the kind words and for watching 🙏🏻
@@tfft Btw I like your honest reviews keep it up
Possibly one of the only real aviation reviews on TH-cam seems like the rest are taking the “sam chui” approach where its reviews for hire keep up the great work and never sell out please!
Haha thanks very much!
So happy to see your channel growing at a steady rate, well deserved! 📈 Onwards and upwards!
On my way home now- currently looking at a big beautiful blue bird 😊 Thanks as always for the support and Merry Christmas!
@@tfft Does it start with a K and end with LM ☺️ A very merry Christmas and safe travels 🕊️🎄🎅🏼
Certainly does 😊
@@tfft ☺️🤩
This is one of the better trip reports on TH-cam. High quality... continue and you will be one of the top vloggers in this category!

I have been looking at those Iraqi A220 flights lately. Not sure when, but it’s on my list! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Finally found someone who likes watching Amsterdam during flight. Hahaha... good reviews, brutally honest. Good on ya mate.

I have traveled many times on Gulf Air, and I found it a great airline. The last time was in June. Beddings always look brand new.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Great video I wanted to see if it’s worth upgrading
Enjoy your trip 🗺️.
Have you seen the old terminal of Bahrain airport?
This building is the newest, the old one was demolished in term of phase 2 to this new building.
No I haven't. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

Turkish airlines also has an amazing seat in their A321neo and 737MAX business class.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Good to see that you are firmly in the narration and show the subject mode. I've no interest is seeing what you look like 🙂
Thanks for watching & Happy New Year 🎉

Hi there! Did you go to jakarta today? I will go in September 1.
What makes you think I'm in Jakarta? lol
@@tfft It looks fun to make you see the swimming pool lol! Also is the swimming pool of jakarta big?
That’s very true about Gulfair … unfortunately this is not the Gulf air I knew
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Going to take a wild guess and say you were flying over Manama and Seef?
Nope, the river is key 😉 Try again and then I’ll tell ya haha. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@tfft Ah man, the only Khobar in Saudi Arabia and that is all I can think of haha. And keep up the great work!
Baghdad 😊
16 bottles trowing in take off , funny , but true.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
It was interesting
Not a fan of 2 2 2 seat layout.. good honest review
Just 2-2 🙃 Thanks for watching & Happy New Year 🎉
"I mean.........this flight had to be better than the last one right?"
LMAO such low standards to beat XD
At least you got a much better experience though!
😊 Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
It's not Manama international airport it's Al hidd international airport
It's an international airport in Manama. I never said the name of the airport is Manama International Airport. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Could do with a big edit. Start watching at 7 minutes for flight details
Seems you were looking for an in flight details video. This is a trip report. 😉
You should get one of those "eye glass" style hidden cameras. That way, you can make your flight reports even more unbiased. The crew will have no idea you are even filming.
I have multiple small cameras but image quality takes a massive hit with them in low light conditions (which it is on a plane 95% of the time) so I never use them for flight reviews. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
A better experience, but not good enough. Nonetheless, enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
It is not dirt on the window it is humidity😂
You might wanna check where Bahrain is. Certainly was not humidity.
@@tfft I live in Bahrain...
I think your review very fare Thanks.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Nice
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Kindly review Oman Air please , Thank you
Have 2 Oman Air videos in queue for publishing.
I was expecting the seat can convert to a flat bed, disappointing!
Thanks for watching 🩴
Business class any airline is a way big thing for me.i don't even observe the things ud do.sleep is good for me .everything pales

I've been told "airbus a320neo" in general is ok but never good as a business class chair! i mean why would i pay the price of 1500$+ for a chair that doesn't go full bed, i believe ... pass for this model in general.
So then... pass for literally every narrow body aircraft for you then, eh?
@@tfft yep, why would i pay 1500$+ for an economy chair that is named business chair with benefits while i can pay the same amount on Omani Air Boeing 737-800 V1, or Qatar Boeing 777! it's not my problem if they give less space for the same price as a spacious space on other airways companies!
Is it nicer than Qatar A320 and PAL A321 NEO's lie flat seats.
