I took a flight with Egyptair in Business Class onboard their Airbus A330 and Boeing 777 - and ended up having one of my worst flights of the year.

Who in their right mind would go into the lavatory shoeless? That's totally on you. I don't care if it's Lufthansa, Ryanair, Delta, Emirates or ANA.
With on this one - karma ! Hate people shoeless on planes
Thank you! I retired after 43 years as a flight attendant with Delta and I would always cringe every time some fool walked into the lavatory shoeless.
D’oh, dude.
Seriously Noel you should know better than to go shoeless into the lav. You’ve flown enough and seen the mess people make with certain body fluids. Men don’t aim well and in a mild bit of turbulence they are going to miss and pee on the floor. The same floor you are stepping on shoeless.
It you were out on the town and needed to use the loo would you go shoeless into the lav??? No you wouldn’t.
This is why you buy slippers before you fly. They are really comfortable and you don’t need to take them off during a flight unless it’s an emergency. Also you should always be ready to put your regular shoes on if there is ever an emergency landing. Lastly don’t ware high heels when you fly because they can cause the emergency evacuation slide to become unusable amongst other problems. Also I don’t recommend wearing sandals on planes because of risks involved during an emergency. Lastly always wear clothing that is made with 100% natural materials such as cotton and wool because they are less likely to burn on to your skin during a fire or when you are going down the emergency evacuation slide due to the friction.
I don’t understand people that don’t wear their shoes to the lavatory in planes...
or anywhere in a flight for that matter. planes are filthy!
or any bathroom for that matter.
Legend says that the baby is still crying to this day
‘My seat mate preferred to watch me sleep.’ 🤣🤣🤣🤣
17:18 The dude next to noel was about to explode lol
He looks like a cop, too
Just barely holding himself back from opening the emergency exit and throwing the kid out, you can see it in his eyes
True hahahaha
@@misterpayah7723 i think that´s what everybody on that plane wanted for sure xD
I had a similar screaming child experience a few years ago flying Emirates Business class UAE to Manchester . The mother thought it was the flight crews responsibility to look after her young son. She brought nothing for him and was argue if with the crew when they had no toys of baby food for him. The child screamed for the whole flight while the mother ignored him. Still makes me cringe today and that flight was 10 years ago.
That’s awful, sorry for your bad experience. It’s not the kids I have an issue with. Most parents are brilliant at trying to keep the kids calm. The most frustrating is when they just completely ignore the kids behaviour.
Noel Philips Agreed , I remember reading the other year when George Clooney took his baby either business or first he bought noise cancelling headphones for the cabin ;-) www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/george-clooney-gave-out-this-cute-note-with-headphones-on-flight/

40 minutes late from take-off and no explanations or apologies? Imagine this when compared to Japan where the train personnel will bow in apology, and give excuse letters you can show to your boss for leaving the station 1 minute late! 😳
It's probably a cultural thing. Some cultures don't offer explanations or issue apologies to their customers. Others are very solicitous and will fall all over themselves to try to make sure you're happy with the service.
Egypt air is almost always late check London to Cairo flight status online
That’s pretty sad that they need excuse letters
At first, I was thinking 13 MBps is actually pretty good, then I realized it was just 13MB total.
I been on Air Cario owned by EGYPTAIR we were delayed for 24 hours.
Going to the bathroom shoeless??? I’d have to boil my feet afterwards to kill the bionic super germs there!
@Ahmed Naemi Yea, I don't know how these people who wipe their asses with toilet paper dare to talk
Exactly-is this guy a seasoned traveler or just naive?
@Ahmed Naemi we use the paper until nothing is left. And we shower every day. That's the secret.
Buy a noise-cancelling headphone mate, you know there r kids everywhere
My first thought too......and earplugs for when you're sleeping.
Graeme Scott even they were useless on my flight, believe me I tried. The child on my flight was beyond horrendous.
I'm with Noel on this one....when you've paid for a ticket (especially business class) you're entitled to a restful flight without having to put up with a screaming brat.
while i agree with noise cancelling headphones, they aren't great at eliminating baby cries. They don't filter out higher pitch noises that well, and baby screams are higher pitched because it grabs attention quickly
exactly!
My friend. I used Egypt Air on the same route in 2015. The same experience. Long delays, no explanations, plane power off and on with no explanation, the random airport staff asking for tip money, plain furniture tired and paint gone.. same same.
Flying Egyptian Air? It "sfinx".
"Plane furniture" I like that.
Dude, ear plugs cost like a couple bucks and significantly change your experience.
Ear plugs don't drown out baby screams

I had a similar experience last year on an Air Canada flight from Zurich to Toronto. In the row ahead of me was a family from some Middle Eastern Emirate, whose kid screamed the nearly the whole flight long. The parents did nothing to try to quiet it.
My mum used to tell me, back in time when i was a babe and we had to travel via airplanes alot due to work, she told me i was always proud of you son cuz you never cried or screamed on a single flight ever !. watching this made me realize why she always kept telling me that.
she been proud cause you didn't make her embarrassed 🤣
Good for you. Announce it form the top of the Empire building.
@@lukelarssen7072 why should a mom be embarrassed if her baby cries? This is a BABY. I know it’s annoying and I hate it too on a plane but it is how it is.
@@Hamoa of course mom shouldn't be embarrassed. BUT sadly it's the reality of our society
People with babies should have their own compartment to fly in.
Definitely sympathize about the baby... had the same experience for *14* hours JFK-NRT once. On that trip, the parents did at least try, for a while, but they seemed to give up after about 3 hours. At that point, the flight attendants took over and did what they could (this was ANA, so the cabin crew made a real effort), but it just never stopped, for 14 hours. That was the point when I bought my first set of noise canceling headphones. They do help.
I flew with Egyptair as a teen and was harrassed by male staff while going to the bathroom. They even closed the curtain so we could "talk in private", my dad was keeping his eye on me and flew through the curtain in a rage, asking them why they took a minor in the back and closed the curtain. They apologised but my dad told then not to talk to me anymore. I loved Egypt, I even became an archaeologist later on in my life, such a beautiful country with an amazing History. But I was harassed all the time there :/
That's awful
That’s absolutely vile. What did that guy even say to you (if you don’t mind me asking)?
That sort of thing happens all the time in England. Bus stations, soccer games, and primarily at school. You might have been cumming off that way to the guy on the plane.

HIB Travel thank you! I’m in South Africa so that’s about R2,800
everyone has experienced the screaming baby.
Business class doesn't get you out of that.
Well it’s supposed to. If people are travelling with their child, at least have the decency to book economy for them and their kid. Business is supposed to give adults the chance to arrive fresh and ready for ‘business’ (or at least that’s the intention). There is no need for a child to be in business.
They just should be ban from business class and first class
@Jenna Knox nope, Do you?
If I pay that much for business or First class, I don't wanna hear screaming kids.
Having been to Egypt this video does not surprise me. We landed in Cairo and headed to the baggage carousel, upon which we waited 45 minutes for our bags to arrive. This would not have been so bad, but the bags came in waves 15 minutes apart. The first wave came after 15 minutes (business class bags maybe?), then another wave of bags 15 minutes later, then 15 minutes later another wave which included ours. We left, and there were still pax waiting for their bags to arrive. The carousel was serving only our flight! On the flight out there were two guys in plain clothes (not an airport uniform) "helping" you put your bags on the xray belt. Then both (very quietly) holding their hand out for the customary tip - each! It's just Egypt and the Egyptian way of life.
Rude boarding again: Nothing
Noel: Thanks a lot, lovely, cheers, thank you
I’m British! It’s inbred to be inappropriately polite 😂
@@noelphilips YOU were great. The rude agent was silent. Should at least be whipped.
That’s SA for you. So cheery.....not!
especially with a crying baby
"Followed by a healthy main course of propaganda from the egyptian government" - savage. I do love how honest you are, and it is your USP IMO. Please keep it up 👍
The face on Noel when the kid starts crying lmao.
I feel for the mother of that crying baby. Two years ago my daughter was on a Tigerair low cost flight across Australia to Sydney with a two-year-old, followed by a long flight to Singapore with Scoot. The little one started to get upset on takeoff on Tigerair then vomited all over his Mum and the seat. Cabin crew were wonderful, they brought a complete replacement seat cushion, cleaned everything up, helped my daughter to clean herself up, cuddled and consoled the little one and generally made the flight tolerable. I repeat, that was on a low-cost airline. Then on Scoot to Singapore, again the little one was upset and crying. Scoot has a "no kids" section that you can select for just a few dollars extra so passengers who have decided not to pay for "no kids" should understand what they have chosen. But no, when the little one was crying the passenger opposite was enraged and abused his Mum and the cabin crew were totally unhelpful. Eventually she was forced to flee to the toilet where she sat holding him until he went to sleep then back to her seat where she held him asleep on her lap until arrival in Singapore. Friends, all kinds of people need to travel and parents can not always control their children's crying no matter how much they may want to. We adults, on the other hand, should be able to control our rage. Isn't that why we claim to be adults?
Whilst it's unfair to blame any children, it's really those parents who appear to be utterly unable to control their offspring. Please don't make your children everybody else's problem! If you are not certain whether or not you are capable to control your kids, please refrain from taking your children with you.
@@alexspuswiss Do you have children Sandro? Some parents have no choice in the matter. Secondly, society is not a loose collection of individuals with rights and no responsibility for each other. Society is what makes all the facilities we use available. The taxes of parents with small children went into providing the facilities for your flight. The children, unless they are babies not occupying a seat, contribute to the cost of flying the plane. A parent with a restless infant can reasonably expect that people who identify as adults will control their impatience with some disturbance. It's not forever, at the most it's a few hours. If that's too hard, ear plugs or sound deadening earphones are available for a few dollars. Perhaps cabin crew should have them for sale.
i'm sorry but 99/100 times its just bad parenting. you let your kid be your slavemaster and thats fine for you but on a flight you are making the experience miserable for the 100-200 other people
@@feluto7172 99/100 times when someone says "99/100 times it's this reason or that" it's just an expression of personal prejudice without any data to back the "99/100". You have no basis for saying that unless you can quote references. A two-year-old can have a bad day. Unfortunately it coincided with the day of the flight. In this case the rest of the journey, after arrival in Singapore, was enjoyed by all although the infant, now nearly 8, doesn't remember it.
@@rais1953 how about you learn to soothe your baby or discipline your toddler when they are being a nightmare?
it's not the baby having a bad day. its you failing as a parent because you are too tired to care and decided it should be everyone elses problem instead
always always always wear shoes to a plane toilet!!!
Benjy A In his defence I’ve done it once or twice but with the cheap socks from the amenity kit and just chuck them in the bin afterwards.
That goes with out saying.🇬🇧
To any toilet! Other than yours.
Hi Noel! I’m a cabin crew member from Australia (Qantaslink B717) and you would be surprised how many people bring children and babies into business class. We get a lot of staff travelers who bring families into business. More often than not the kids are great but we did have one landing where the flight crew said they could hear the screams through the flight deck door!
Could there be a possibility that their ears hurt because of the air pressure and that's the reason they scream so heartbreakingly?
Oh my freaking lord. I wouldn’t have made it beyond the chaotic boarding of the first flight, let alone boarding one that had caught on fire previously and an almost 2 hr delay. You’re a brave soul. The mix of the jerk next to you who thought he was more important, and the inconsiderations of other passengers not addressed by crew..which one is worse? I can’t make it a 2 hr flight without a drink. Kudos to you, I feel the need for at least 4 shots watching this.
It is why we pay extra for business class, to stay away from the crying kids, the idiots who play solitaire on the back of your seat for 8 hours, (like a chicken pecking on your back), and all the other "perks" that come with close human contact with those you don't know or necessary like. Long sentence, yes, but I feel your pain! I'll never book an airline on business class that allows children.
That baby was screaming Noel because you described a lemon cheesecake desert as a creme brulee !
No alcohol, propaganda video and flooded toilet ... I see Egypt has still not released Moses considering those tribulations !
Cracking video.
Hilarious Moses comment! spot on.
No booze!!
This is one of the funniest comments I’ve ever seen
No Booze nevermind. HOWEVER service from cabin crews should be excellent if not better. Booze can be replace by premium Non-Alcoholic Champagne or any mocktail. Also invest or upgrade seats and invest in Noise Cancelling Headphones such as BOSE. That's my 2 cents.
@@Nada-vk5ct They can keep it to them fucking selves...

Who's watching this reminiscing about flying in the midst of covid?
🙋♂️
Me!!! Spring 2021, normally we'd be looking forward to going to Cuba from Canada's winter - not this year though...
I do. I'm tired of not being able to travel anywhere. And if that weren't enough, I'm sitting home in quarantine at the moment.
Oh I have done 4 international flights since October 2020. Our recent one was Egypt. We love the fact that we didn't encounter crowds at all.
I'm really missing the travel but the screaming child brought back some bad memories. Once, in Business class, I sat behind one of the worst brats I've ever encountered in my life. The child screamed blue murder for hours and could have auditioned for a Duracell ad. I was exhausted from self restraint.
Noel the baby was screaming with disappointment because you had just received the best hairbrush ever in the amenity kit but won't be able to use it
It was actually me crying at the realisation that I’ll never use a hairbrush again 🤣
😃😃😁😁
haha combing the hair with that brush. I know your pain brother. And those pyramids looked amazing! :o
A few years ago my wife and I flew from Fiji to London via Los Angeles. Boarding in LA we were two rows back from business class, separated by a curtain. The row in front of us had a family with 2 small children who screamed for most of the flight. The flight attendant in business class must have been getting some grief from his customers because he came through several times to address the parents. It was a looooooooong flight!
Address them how? "Please put muzzles on your children. Our supposedly adult passengers think they have a right to never hear a child cry."
@@jn8ive60 well, it might of been because the parents were totally oblivious to the children and made no effort to comfort them.
The lady flight attendant that met you for boarding and farewelled you seemed genuinely warm and kind.
To be honest, your experience sounds much the same as the flights I've had with EgyptAir.
We flew to Egypt with them some time ago and we had broken seats, grotty lavatories, random delays, cabin crew that refused to allow us to open our window blinds for the entire Luxor - London flight for some reason, bad food, rude passengers and screaming babies, and the entire 747 had no pens for UK immigration forms to be completed so the one my Mum had got shared around the entire plane and we didn't see it for over 2 hours.
We had a couple of internal flights with them and to be honest those were actually fine, but their long distance services are awful - both legs we had were as bad as each other. I'll definitely be avoiding them - even Air Koryo rated better from my experience when I flew with them - and the fact they haven't improved from when I used them to when this video was taken is shocking.
Thanks On Your Hardwork Typing This… LOL
You don't wear shoes to go to the toilets on a plane!!!!!!!! Yuk man!
That's why airpods pro or bose queitcomfort are a must when travelling noise cancellation is so advanced on these things
You forgot the Sony Wh-1000xm4 the best one for flying ✈
Check out the Anker Soundcores for a much lower cost alternative.
In the days of Sir Freddie Laker and Skytrain, a child kept running around the cabin kicking a stewardess, as they were called then - yes, I'm old - she eventually had enough of that kid and leaned down and said to him, "Why don't you play outside..."
British: Complaining why it’s hot during summer in South Africa.
South African: Jeez it’s a cold day 🥶
Australian: What did he expect?
Nice videos Noel thanks. Looks like a pretty average experience overall. But the 90 minutes delay without a single announcement is just lazy and reflects pretty badly on the airline. It only takes a minute to explain why your sitting at the gate for so long.
Hell you can lie and that'll be good enough.
Truth be told majority of delays, are crew related (waiting on someone with hours to make the flight or someone on the ground called off and someone is having to finish up elsewhere before checking on your plane)
OR my favorite, any issue even a minor 1 like (for example one of my last flights) 2 screws missing in a non crucial panel and they were attempting (The Techs) to get ahold of engineering to see if it could be speed taped and deferred until the next stop or whatever they could have done and that took an hour)
Usually if it's a "major" issue they'll cancel it pretty quickly and just try to rebook people if possible, does them no good to sit there delaying and delaying on a major issue HOPING it magically fixes it self quickly.
I am quite impressed by how kind you are and how much you say thank you, despite having some fairly miserable experiences. Nicer than most I've seen, Joel! Makes it very enjoyable to watch even your uncomfortable flight experiences.
I remember our flight via Singapore Airlines to Australia - my husband, self and four young boys. The Airline staff kept complimenting us towards the end of our flight, plus two other random passengers - which was lovely but we didn't really know why they kept telling us this ...
After watching this video...we certainly know why now lol!!
I agree with Noel here. It's not so much that a baby screams, it's more when the parent doesn't make an effort to calm them. I've done a few long haul flights with babies recently, and the parents would soothe their child instantly before it got to the hours of screaming part. That I don't mind! But, putting your headphones in and letting them scream is really unfair on everyone else.
neonwired It’s not the child it’s the parent! Every child is going to cry that’s a given. But hours of screaming that goes unchecked while they ignore it with headphones lies with the parent.
@@neonwired4978 This is not judgmental but we have rights to speak up! You can't deny people from raising issue then coax them into acceptance it because it is not possible and unethical for most of the passengers. For example my parent won't allow us to fly until we stop crying and mature enough to stop behaving like babies so other passengers could have enough rest. As for the lady who thinks bringing baby to holiday was a good idea, she DID not do her job... period!
I have to say though Noels comment was rather closed minded! Business class was for the comfort of the parents as most babies go for free and aren't assigned a seat, so why should they be forced to cattle class just for having a child. But to be fair I'm sure he was exhausted and crying babies are the worst.
My kids would almost every time get ear infections during long haul flights and were very hard to console some times. You cannot treat ear infection with a pain killer and won't find out whats been bothering them until you see a doctor. Everyone wants a peaceful flight but there are something airlines cannot control or even parents. I can't imagine parents deliberately letting their child cry for hours on a flight without making an effort.
neonwired Stop being an idiot
Reminds me of my trip from Cancun to Los Angeles with Delta. Just add being hungover and the screaming toddler replaced with a sobbing 9 year old.
Back in 2014 my mom and I were connecting in Atlanta from Dallas to Tampa; as we were pushing back from the gate in Atlanta the electricity went out and the engines shut down. The pilot said he would “turn the plane back on” and a lady said “what just reboot the plane?” We continued without incident but that experience has stuck with me.
CTRL ALT GO
When I was travelling alone with my two year old and six year old daughters from Canada to England and back, I got so many compliments from people around us, about how well behaved my children were. I guess they were expecting noisy kids. I never had to be strict with them. We just had a lovely relationship. That is the key to parenting. Babies, on the other hand, are a different thing. It must be very hard on them to fly.
How nice and wholesome.
Personally my mothers efforts of threatening to beat me and my sister half to death if we ever embarrassed her in public kept us both inline, both me and my sister remember this fondly as adults now 😂😂😬.
I’m sure sam chui would say they are wonderful ££££
Not as bad as that Swedish kid.
Wouldn't watch either of them.
Well Sam is just more subtle with his criticism. When he doesn't like something he just mentions some suggestions. A sell-out? Well yeah probably in the sense that he's never particulary negative on anything. However to some extent he just has his own style. He finds any experience interesting in a way.
He's bloody cringeworthy
Sam Chui has a completely different product to offer. He is invited by the airlines, in turn he shows more insight like cockpit views, interviews, etc. which can be quite interesting. Nobody thinks he is doing hard regular customer critique.
My wife and I flew Jo'burg to Cairo on Egypt Air back in 2011, also in business class. Tired old A330, terrible food. We still look back and laugh as it was by far the worst airline we have ever been on.
Love your open and honest reviews.
Thanks Chris! I won’t say it’s the worst airline I’ve flown on - but honestly as a member of a major alliance I expected them to be better than they were.
Chris as my father would have put it as a poop and shit experience !

It's a common narrative of all those youtubers flying business (on someone else's sponsorship). They just feel really really important despite being as common as the last of the economy traveler. Going barefoot to the toilet kinda proves it :)

Wonderful trip report! Thanks for sharing your amazing view over Egypt!
I have read some horrific stories about Egypt; especially from a food blogger who was constantly harassed by Egyptian Police. Egypt is certainly NOT on my bucket list.
Hey, at least there wasn’t a killer fly on the plane
It is a damn shame seeing this. As an Egyptian, I’ve had to use their services a lot of visit home. And on pretty much all of the flights I’ve been on the staff we’re wonderful and clearly passionate about their jobs, but it’s just a classic example of an airline with potential ruined by poor management.
I am a pilot, we know things that most people never will hear about....The rapid change in air pressure from pressurization can have extreme effects on a child's ears....Adults can mostly combat this problem by swallowing, yawning, coughing or chewing gum....this helps the pressure in the inner ear to normalize with the given air pressure, some people say it is the Popping of the ears..so to speak.... A baby is unable to do these things and has huge discomfort because of this... This is quite painful and this is why the baby screams through most of the flight....To combat this give the baby something to suck on before you take off....Like a lollipop, a pacifier, or even something to drink through a straw...I have no idea why airlines do not teach this to the cabin crews....Probably for the same reason that they tell you at the beginning of the flight, IF there is a sudden decompression of the aircraft to put your Oxygen Mask on first before you help your child, or any other people....the reason is.....at 35 to 38,000 feet without pressurization your useful unconscious time is less than 30 seconds ...(depending on your fitness and health) it can be less, before you pass out.and within a short time you will die of lack of ox. to the blood....Hypoxia ..The Flight Crew are trained to Declare an EMERGENCY to ATC, and get the aircraft to 10,000 feet or the MEA (Minimum En-Rout Altitude) as soon as possible....Basically pulling the power back to Idle, throwing out the spoilers, and descending at 2 miles a minute....To get everybody into the lower atmosphere...(thicker Air) as soon as possible....Hope this helps....Next time you fly with a child....give them something to chew or suck on....it will help...
I remember as a little girl growing up in Russia, one look from my mom while out ANYWHERE and i knew what it meant. I remember this as early as 2-3years old. My mom always told me i was the most well behaved quiet child, and all i can think about was that deadly stare which meant death. Train your children to fear that look, thats it. I still wouldnt dare to challenge my mother when i get that look, and im turning 40 this year.
You obviously have no idea ow old that baby was.

@@PowerWidow and neither do I care. The parents need to make sure the kid stays quiet. Enough of your sanctimonious sermonising.

EgyptAir and Kuwait aren't completely dry like PIA, Iran Air and Saudia. Unless there policy has very recently changed EgyptAir and Kuwait will in most cases allow you to drink dutyfree and provide glasses, ice, mixers etc
That is good to know. Mental note: next time raid the duty free 😂
It shouldn't be required to raid tue duty free for a beer in business class
I’m new to your channel but have really enjoyed your videos. Even when you aren’t experiencing a quality product your presentation is cheerful. I like that!
That grim smile on your face as the baby cries on the Cairo to London flight says volumes mate.
I enjoyed watching you use the hairbrush from the amenity kit at 7:41 of the video! You should make more videos of yourself combing your "hair" using the different combs and hairbrushes from the different airline amenity kits :-)
At least the pyramids looked great! 😁
I bet a year later Noel can still hear that baby screaming in his sleep 🤣
Traveling with a baby is so exhausting. I remember we flew from Montreal to Paris when my son was only 4 months. He kept crying and no one on board could sleep, until one aboriginal women saved us and managed to calm him down.
Couldn't you have (safely) drugged him?
It was your personal choice to have a kid, your personal choice to ruine every other passenger's flight by bringing him onboard.
@@sierrajk9809 I did say "safely" drug them. Nothing harmful. Just enough to keep them silent for the duration of the trip. Or just tape their gob shut.
@@XAuroraM this is bitter af
@@XAuroraM kids travel on planes. if you don;t want o be near kids don't travel on planes ffs...
I sat next to a sick woman on a KLM flight for 10 hours in July 2019, she was coughing her lungs out most of the time. The stewardess told me I could go sit in the Pilot's seat and before I could tell her that I wont know how to fly the plane I realised that she meant the extra seat where he goes to take a rest. I decided to endure the torture and was so worried that I would pick up the germs and ruin my vacation but I was lucky that it did not happen
And you didn't accept this offer???
@@danielnegulescu7858 I was stupid not to accept it yes
I flew from Kuala Lumpur to New Delhi a few years ago and had a coughing man sitting next to me - coughed the whole way. Sure enough I fell sick in India. On the return I had a coughing woman ( horrendous deep lung cough) sitting behind me and sure enough I fell sick on return to KL. What a life !
Good old days pre COVID. any coughing person right now will be isolated lol
At least the guy next to you on the second flight let you close the privacy screen! Hopefully Egypt Air’s new Business Class is better.
To be fair their 787 looks very nice indeed. Would like to try that one.
That screaming kid on that flight would do my absolute head in. I always take noise cancelling headphones with me when I fly to drown out the screaming kids and so I can zone out
7:43 the moment you brush your head but no hair nalled it😂😂
newsflash: the southern hemisphere also celebrate Christmas
Lol
Lived there my whole life and yes we’ve celebrated Christmas every year 😲
@@olivegrove2615 But do you celebrate it upside down 😅?
See Donovan's Reef.
Fabio Monteiro lol
christmas in summer? come to Australia. 40' Christmas day XD
Omg! I wish all airlines would watch your videos so they can get an idea of how good or messed up their airline company is. Great video
I flew to UAE and back with my then 1 year old disabled child.
We had a bulkhead seat for him on the return leg for a cot for him to sleep in.
He didn't give out a single peep on either journey.
He looked out of the window and giggled a lot of the time, he smiled at the crew as they passed by him and said hello to him.
He happily accepted juice when they offered it to him.
The only thing he didn't like was the hot cloth face and hands wash in the morning before we crab landed at a very windy Heathrow in the morning.
They also have awful inflight entertainment!
My only trip through Cairo with SQ and the staff/security decided to all go on strike. Not just that they also decided to ransack the airport, destroying all the shops in the process. We were barricaded in the SQ lounge for several hours and then rapidly moved to the relative safety of the plane for another few hours. Boy was I glad to see the back of Cairo!!
Baby:*Cries*
Noel: here we go again
flying these days is like going to the supermarket. Always a screaming kid.
"The hard product is just crap to be honest". Sums up EgyptAir in a nutshell
Crying babies, a passengers worst nightmare.
petey3965 what about a plane crash?
K Sjodin agreed
Scott Smith r/woosh
Scott Smith money is all you care about.
Once had a kid crying so load, passengers on other planes were complaining
Nice video and very interesting, thanks for sharing this with the audience.
I dont know if you have ever flown with small child, but I could easily book business tickets with child to get more space (compared to mortals department) to let the kid do its things. But if the kid happens to be sick or its ears are hurting, it is also very very frustrating to parents too. I can bet my soul that they were wishing their child would had a nice flight too.
But I also understand very well your point. Thats why I always carry my noise cancelling headphones and also ear plugs when flying.
Anyway, I love your videos. Thanks for sharing them to us!
7:43 had me there 😂
17:16 great reaction! I hate it so much too
Great vid
When I was a young Mum I had to fly from Kuwait to London with my baby. She cried most of the way because of the pressure on her ears and it was distressing to her and me. I tried everything I could to comfort her to no avail and ended up in tears myself. Was so glad to get off that flight.😥
Rosemary Bleackley then don’t take your baby or go to places with a baby... it’s that simple
@@Cessna152ful How completely clueless you are.
@@Cessna152fulyeah, people with babies should have to drive from Kuwait to London. 🤷♀️
@@BRUtahn Stay mad, maybe wait till the brat is grown up enough to be shut up before taking it on trips.
Complaints about a baby in business coming from a frequent flier who: 1) doesn't bring headphones or use the complimentary earplugs on a flight and 2) wears only socks to the lavatory.
That is rich!!
Last time I was flying with Egypt Air they filled up engine oil with a Coke bottle..... it was an A 320. Seats were loose and the plane was a only wreck. Never again I fly with this airline.
17:16 I loved your ‘muted’ use of french regarding the crying baby 😂 great vid as per 👌🏻
Looking forward to this one 😆
Ew ew ew you went in to a public restroom without shoes?
Haha, at 3:23 when you grab a bottle and the next comment is "Right, duty free got." :D
Ur my favorite channel, I especially like ur videos that are adventurous like ur 81 hours flight 🥰🥰
Obvious cheesecake “creme brûlée”
