    Have flown Airlink around SA many times.
    And yes, like you said, South Africa is the most beautiful country on earth. All the best holiday destinations in one place.

    I am not medically cleared to fly. I have catastrophic end stage arthritis. They pain that a pressurized cabin..the docs worry it would be to much on my heart. Travel is painful when your joints are crumbling. I love your channel...it allows me to see the world. I use it homeschooling my son...so he can see parts of the world. He is a genius, our schools are NOT geared towards people with super high intelligence. Thank you!

    I'm still fairly new to flying but I have to say the Embraer 175 is a favorite of mine.
    The one I usually fly on has a slightly different layout with first class having 12 seats laid out in a 1-2 configuration.
    Then economy plus followed by economy.
    I like being in first class in a seat on the single seat side.
    I've never flown on a large airplane..

    Dutch & German are 1 of the few European languages that inspired the Southern African language of Afrikaans which is mostly spoken by white people living both in Africa & some of the South American countries. Another fact is Namibia is the ONLY country in Africa that have German as one of it's official languages because it was once a German colony until after WW2, then was occupied by "Apartheid South Africa" until it gained it's independence in 1990.

    About 20 years ago, I used to fly from Glasgow to Bristol regularly. BA used an Embraer jet on the route as well as a Dash 8. I am not sure however what model of Embraer it was but it had an unusual seat configuration of one seat on the left of the aisle and two seats on the right. It always seemed strange to me, but I enjoyed travelling on it for the short one hour flight. I didn't realise that there were any 747's left flying passengers. I look forward to the review of your proposed flight with Lufthansa.
