Super Air Jet sounds like what ChatGPT would generate if you asked it for generic airline names lmao
yeah

The airline was started because Lion Air was delinquent on the lease payments of 30 of their 737-900ERs during covid. Subsequently, these were repossessed by the lessors (and later got bought by delta). Needing to make up for the lost capacity, the airline group leased lots of older A320s from different lessors. There were some good articles about it in the Air Finance Journal at the time.
To my knowledge, the 737-900ER lessors are still fighting Lion in court for the arrears in lease payments.
More like Super Dodgy Jet then
Ahaaa
The Lion owners like to segment their business into many different companies. That way, when they inevitably have a major accident due to overworked and underpaid crews and poor maintenance, they can just close down that company and escape any responsibility, while continuing to operate the others unaffected.
I like this Business method
Oh I see. Same owner from lion which crashed
sounds like the german wings euro wings "company takeover"
Super Air Jet motto: 'Our seats may have springs sticking out of them, but our engines probably don't'.
Yeah , dont worry if one engine fails we still have another .
😂😂
@@gazzertrn In actual fact with every twin engine aircraft, are capable of being flown with one engine, is no problem even with taking off. All thats required is they trim it it out to counter balance the only one working engine.
I moved from Nottingham to the Dorset coast three years ago and I'm pissing myself laughing at your absolutely spot on comparison to Nottingham bus station.
As somebody who visits Nottingham fairly regularly, yeah, can't argue with that. Don't get me wrong! I actually really like Nottingham, but if you get off the train and aren't expecting the city's distinct mise-en-scène, I think you'd be forgiven for thinking it was closed :p
I only fly Guaruda Airlines when traveling between Jakarta and Bali. You took one for the team on this one...Terima Kasih Pak! 😊
Garuda Citilink AirAsia are Okay.. But LION Group planes.. if you dont have any option only
@@agungprasetyo2665 Well, for a depressingly lot of routes (for example Kalimantan routes), option is not even exist in the first place. First hand experience from some years working in Oil Palm Industry.
I am Indonesian, and i dont want to fly superairjet. But sometimes, it is the only option available because the other options such as Garuda, Citilink, Batik, and even Lion is quickly sold out... and weirdly, super air jet is usually the only ones often left available for the intended timeslot. So yeah 😂.
Pramugarinya lumayan euy SuperAir Jet, coba aja naik tuh maskapai
@@xiraoit9342 sangean lu
Kalau mau naik kapal hari
6:45 that chap was looking into my soul! 😂
At least your pilots haven't fallen asleep!
batik air flashbacks
Now, come on, Super Air Jet is just Lion Air but its name.
@@Hans5958 yeah but their main is the a320
@@jasonhw0808you mean A320s flying on borrowed time?
😂😂😂
I flew with Super Air Jet 4 months ago with my family, and my mom also experienced the exact same problem as you regarding the seat lol. And yeah, for some reason, they don't sell any on board things. Not even a bottle of water. Probably because they're ultra low cost. We forgot to bring any water with us during our 3 hour flight and I almost passed out because of dehydration. Good thing I managed to survive
Prob they cut the onboard beverage for saving fuel to get less weight. Its low cost afterall
It probably depends. I've seen some people in front of me ordering cup noodles for their flight meal. The stewardess also brought a trolley full of snacks... there wasn't any heavy meals tho. Probably they only sell snacks or something. I brought my water with me tho, so i didn't order any of those snacks...
Tbf, their 61 A320s are leased and all use the older IAE V2500 engines. Most come from India.
Did you report the broken seat to the crew during or after the flight?
It would be difficult to spot this in a walk through clean.
Ah, I assumed it was the leftovers from everybody else upgrading.
Older than what? The CFM-56 on other A320s were designed earlier.
Explains the smell
@@ytlurker220 compared to nowadays where most prefer the NEO version, it can be considered that the CFMs and IAEs of the CEO versions are old.
there it is again " it has an Aroma" i love it. lol the guy behind you was staring hard lol. very funny man keep it up.
Guy behind him probably 💨💨💨💨 LOL.
It’s what indonesians do when seeing a white person, trust me im from there
We recently stayed in an all inclusive hotel south of Cancun that emitted a flowery fragrance in the common areas so when you smelled that flower again you thought of your time at that hotel. Sounds like you got the same treatment only in reverse.
The first time I smelled a gardenia I recognized the smell from various face creams scented to match gardenias…
I like when you show the hotel room and a little bit of that stuff.
Great that you still travel economy a lot and not just business/first like a lot of other TH-camrs. Keeping it real!
I flew same airline same route last week, the aircraft I flew on was newer than the one you flew on and it didn't smell. price was £33
thinking about it , I bet someone has snuck on some durian in their onboard luggage. Inclosed in a cabin that will give off strong odors of unwashed body, homeless armpit aroma.
@@seamusobrien2675I was thinking that too. People bring all kinds of stuff onto planes in Asia.
I just had my first flight since the Covid pandemic. Flying from Inverness Airport to London Luton on Saturday morning, returning from London Gatwick back to Inverness in the evening, allowing me a day out in London. EasyJet were once again absolutely superb and I actually much more comfortable than flying with BA. I really couldn’t fault them in any way. Just because something is budget doesn’t mean a tatty aircraft or poor service.
You still believe in that?
@@antonygibson_ 😂. 😂. Covid
Well sadly, Super Air Jet is sketchy. The plane does have weird smell. I don't know if it's feces or the perfume they use. But it smells different compared to other airlines like Lion Air or AirAsia.
@@michaela6147Covid still kills people.
In the nicest way possible what was the point in this comment 🤣
Bloody hell Noel my back was hurting just watching you , but as you say it got you from A to B,
Great content many thanks 😊
Glad you enjoyed it

That hotel room was amazing !!
@@chee-h1r But for the exchanging of the two zones exactly why it was possible right?

Thanks for the video, Noel. One of the reasons (in the past) that explained the poor safety record of Indonesian airlines is they grew and expanded too fast. Indonesia has a huge population (approximately 273 million) and is a vast country with tens of thousands of islands. There is a high demand for air travel to enable people to move across the islands so any airline will have business. Purchasing aircraft is easy but setting up systems within which the aircraft are operated and maintained, for example, flight crew with the necessary experience, maintenance crew, cabin crew, ground crew and ATC is the difficult part. When an airline grows fast (with several aircraft and routes) without corresponding human resources and technical growth then something has to give. I believe Indonesia has improved its safety record. Their flag carrier (Garuda) and other carriers including Lion Air were removed from the EU blacklist.
I learned a new word from this video...."Chiropractor". Thanks again Noel and I'll see you on the next one.
This also reminds of how dangerous sea transit was in Indonesia too that caused the increased demand to choose flying.
@@Normalaatsra Air travel is statistically safer than other modes of travel.
What to do if the plane is smelly? Open more windows!
This only works on the 737-9 😜
boeings new feature
Drills and Screwdrivers are now allowed in carry on luggage... only for Boeing's so that you can help with maintainence
1000 IQ moment
@@larsfeldmann2838 They will even open windows that were just panels!
So you can erh ... see better! Also weight savings!
Great video! I watched it for the first time in the LATAM Lounge in São Paulo Brazil 🇧🇷 while I was filming a flight review video and I gave it and you a shout out I’ll let you know once it’s out! 😂
Cheers 🥂 mate!
Good video! I’m glad to see you flying a new low cost airline. Hopefully you got an appointment for your back when you are back in the states. Also on a side note it’s good to see closed captions on the videos! Keep up the good work
Added to my Don't Bother To Fly On list 😅
Just did a big SE ASIA trip, part of which was Singapore to Bali on SIA, then Malaysian airlines to KL, then air Asia to Cambodia, bus to Bangkok, SIA to Singapore.
The next bit was Garuda to Jakarta, train to Yogyakarta, Garuda to Jakarta then Garuda to Bangkok. Garuda turned out to be on par with SIA for comfort and food etc, also have got their safety issues up to scratch.
You could have taken the train from Jakarta just about all the way to Bali if you had time, more comfortable than UK trains and their version of first class is quite affordable too.
Indonesia also probably has the most friendly people on earth.
The day flights I took were quite scenic as you flew over some of the many volcanoes.
Noel I was in Jakarta on the 14/03 catching a South China Air flight, on a long way back to Brisbane via China. We bused out to our A321XR and parked next to it was the ARJ-21 TranNusa you flew on. It was just such a coincidence as I only watched your video the night before 🙂
The airlines all sound like travel words mashed together... I'm starting one called 'Fantastic Fly Plane'...
That's one heck of a hotel room, Noel!!! It must be a real luxury after that flight.😁😁😁
Hope you have/had a lovely time in Indonesia , I'm there in 2 weeks for a trip mainly to Sumatra!
last time flying with super air jet during last eid holiday, me and my pregnant wife got more than 2 hours delay (schedule is 19.45, iirc flight is around 22), all their ground crew magically vanished from the gate area and they're not giving any delay compensation at all
6:37 - your neighbor lurking behind you looks kind of menacing
I plan my Sunday morning around your vids. Coffee in hand, cat asleep on my lap and ready for the latest adventure. I dig those uniforms! You are not old and battered!!
Love the 70's Bond uniforms
You gave me flashbacks to my first international flight, with the broken seat!
We were flying Qantas, to Perth. The only seats together ( I was newly married and we were going to spend time with family there and here in New Zealand) were in the smoking section, thankfully at the front. As we climbed, so the back of my seat jolted out of position. I did all I could not to fall back. I made the flight attendant aware but was told they had no other seats so I had to cope until we got to Singapore! It was agonising - I was leaning forward, not touching the seat, the entire time and by the time we landed, was almost in tears, exhausted and hungry, as eating was impossible in that position. No apology from Qantas, nothing - seems I didn't make enough of a fuss as the response I got told me that had I made the crew aware, they had empty seats in BUSINESS class, that I could've been moved to since we were underway! Suffice to say, I've never flown with them since!
Should have just opened a door! - This post sponsored by Boeing
Another fair assessment of the low-cost airline from you. Love the way you explain things!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Explain the following discrepancy in a word with the following sentence please😊
We are getting a new route for breeze airlines this summer that is nonstop from Huntsville Al to LA flown on A220s
You should watch Stig aviation. He’s an airplane mechanic and one of his videos he talks about a stinky cabin and how they get rid of it. Love your channel and safe travels.😊
Love the EAA shirt! That’s practically in my backyard!
Super Air Jet is one of the few Indonesian airlines that i've never flown at this point since Super Air Jet was born in March 2021. As of February 29 2024, Super Air Jet has 60 aircraft and all are Airbus A320ceos. For me as an Indonesian Avgeek, I'm still wanted to try Super Air Jet someday because it is a pretty interesting airline in my opinion
Could the 'aroma' have been mold? I see from the overhead vents that's it's understandably warm and humid. I believe there some air filters that need to be changed from time to time and certain low cost carriers might "forget".
Great video as always.
Glad you enjoyed it
Is there anything you can do about it that would make it accreditable and smooth? 🐑
Your lucky the AC was okay.. some flights after take off the AC wont work till your land lol.. also a broken chair 50% have same exp too 😂. They using an old airbus 320,some of them was gen 1 😅
What is coming up in next week video love your videos
I love traveling with you Noel!!!
I’m guessing the uniform designer was a fan of Buck Rodgers
What you endured, is also known as British Airways Economy Class. But at a fraction of the price.
9:42 come on Noel turn the bloody music down, I can hardly hear what you are saying.
Not trying to sell overpriced crisps sounds like a win for me!
Remember flying on Air Asia at 1am, the lights being bright as hell and then trying to sell stuff the entire time.
Where are all these upstart airlines getting staff, and how experienced are they?
Great airline doing a great job for a lot of people…. You want luxury go on GARUDA INDONESIA….. 🇮🇩 Flown super air jet at least 6 times…never had an issue.
😂😂😂😂 plane smelling like a good old Greyhound porta potty always informative enjoy your videos
They probably got their A320's from the other low-cost carriers that were perhaps upgrading their fleets to the newer A321's and A330's, which is fine. There are still many airlines in the US that fly A320's but those are mostly the budget carriers as well.
My wife (nurse for many years), uses a trick of a slight swipe of Vicks Vapor rub under each nostril to combat questionable odors. 👍👍
Hi Noel everyone has a guide on how to pack carry on what they need and don't. Can we see your set up please Nicholas
Ahh! The delightful Victoria Bus Station in Nottingham, glad you're missing home. This sounds like a trip above and beyond the call of duty, but as you say it got you from A to B. You need a top class trip to recover.
The seats that you’re sitting in look like Greyhound Bus seats too! Love the name of the company “Super Air Jet”. Greatest name for an airline ever (and the logo does it justice too)!
Great video Noel 😊
Love The Nice Night View. It Was Super Interesting Trip. That Makes It Worth It. Love & Look Forward To Videos Every Week. Much Appreciated. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
@@noelphilips I Always Enjoy All Of Your Videos. All Positive Vibes Noel ❤️
My tosh was so big and stain free yesterday ✅
Brave man tackling these LO COST Indonesian airlines.
I was in Bali about 10 years ago with Qatar and was glad to get out of their airspace safely as Mount Agung closed off the airspace due to a volcanic eruption.
Lion group airlines are notorious for their last minute schedule changes which include delays and even cancelations!
Previously owned by Indigo Airlines in India - probably explains the strange smell - think of all the curry chicken dishes previously served on board.
The background music killed the audio for me, I’m hard of hearing and struggle with loud music over voices. Usually Noel does a great vid, so just pointing it out in this vid. ❤
No Loo Review...... Meh!
Probably too smelly :-D
I don't even know if they fly this route, but I kept imagining the mortality rate of a Super Air Jet flight all the way across Indonesia, from Medan in Sumatra to Jayapura in New Guinea - which is farther than San Francisco to Boston and is an almost 6-hour nonstop flight. I know I certainly wouldn't survive it.
At soekarno-hatta airport, there are 2 different physical building.
From this video if you're flying domestic flights from jakarta you will get into the old airport which is on this video, unlike the new airport is for international flights and transit
Noel, you’ve inspired me to travel.
Airlines , even low cost ones, should not be allowed to fly passengers in broken seats. In the event of any accident your chances of survival are practically nil. Big fines should be mandatory.
Somehow I can tell what smell you are talking about. I used to think those are the Body Odor of previous passengers 🤣
1:44 this is a different terminal from your previous trip with Lion Air, this one is T1 and the previous one you've been before is T2
You need a good scrubbing after that ride
That airport is VERY like Victoria bus station in Nottingham, you’re correct 😂 probably also what was Broadmarsh bus station too!
A proper Noel Flight Vid - this is what makes this channel great entertainment to watch....
You do know Bali is in Indonesia
That's why I always take a good hoodie. Can be a back pad, butt pad, pillow, or extra layer if it gets cold
Lmao....your facial expressions when trying to describe the smell made my nose twitch and sniff the air around me 🤣🤣🤣. Kudos for staying strong 💪. ❤❤❤ the channel!!!! PS thank you for No Loo review.... can't even imagine WTH the smell would've been inside it nor, what your expressions might have been then 😮🤢🤮.
Holy Cow, I think I am as tall as you and watching this video almost gave me back pain too. Doesn't look like a nice experience at all however Lord Noel did it with a smile. Thoroughly professional, Well done and thanks for the weekly dose. Cheers, Lord!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Denpasar means North Market. Pasar comes from bazaar.
always..Great...thanks
Hey noel! You should try flying indigo from bangalore to singapore and see how it's aged from last time you flew on it
Aged like fine milk?
Yes
sound is a bit off in this video somehow, music too loud and voice too low, e.g., at 9:44
Thank heck for subtitles.
You were right. You're at the same terminal as you were flying last time with Lion Air because both airlines are belong to the same company which is Lion Group, and they use that old terminal building as their main operation in Jakarta airport of CGK.
Lion has been operating from T2E since 2021/2022 and last year Noel's been hopping from T2E on his Lion flight to T1A on his SJ flight
It's more like taking a bus really. Looking at it that way, it's not too bad.
12-minute video? At this rate, this channel will become a TH-cam shorts channel
Super Air Jet... Didn't they sponsor the Super Terrific Happy Hour television show back in the 90's?
1:00 lol I wasn't expecting to hear that reference...
No loo review ??? 😂
I actually LOL when you compared the smell to a Greyhound Bus!
"It has an aroma..." LOL
AHH the collapsing seat back! Had that happen to me on a 320 also but this flight was way less than an hour but plenty long enough for the guy behind me to yell at me after it leaned back without me realizing it fast enough. At least it didn't happen on my 4 hour connecting flight also on a 320. That would have sucked.
Wow!! Suddenly Vueling Airlines isn't so bad!!! I used to think Vueling was the worst!! I've flown countless carriers and Vueling was horrible!!!! My flight was canceled and Vueling doesn't have a call center anymore.
We need another big airlines group in Indonesia, both these 2 big airlines group playing with tickets price and another group had service issues
Maybe it's just me but the uniforms reminded me of the James Bond film "Moonraker".😂
"They have dozens of flights to Denpasar every day from Bali,"
Denpasar is the capital of Bali
As long as i get there in one piece I'm not bothered who i fly with.
So happy you finally upgraded your Mic. Please use it properly now have faith in it. 💪 Any other travel TH-camr leaves it where it belongs. I love your content it will not stop me from watching. 😁
There is nothing like an ultra-low-cost airline with that grim, smelly, cramped Greyhound feeling 😉
Killing myself laughing at the reference to Nottingham bus station. 😂😂😂
Noel I would love for you to start vlogging in the cities you visit! It would be so enjoyable to watch you explore around!
I much prefer the NEW descriptive....."GRIM".....LOL!!!
You ride "Low Cost" you get "Low Cost"......things to remember.
Happy and safe travels or just a plain old "Bon Voyage", Noel...!!!
You know. I ride on Lion Air once from KNO to BDO (now closed Hussein Sastranegara Airport). My plane didn't land for 7 to 9 hours. Literally hurts my back & somehow got diverted to CGK.
Is this your trip again around the world by flights? My close friend grew up in Perth, Australia. The city is about 5-6 hours southwest of you. She is a junior at Yale University. For that smell, you should have put a MASK on. Indonesia has a high rate of COVID right now for cases. I hope once airborne you opened the AIR vents on board. The flight looked pretty full.
