My favourite TH-camr strikes again. Love all the subtitles, always with fun facts and humour that I enjoy. Love your mind.
You’re too much!
Thanks again. This is the fuel that keeps me going 💪🏼✈️
Your trip reports are just the best on TH-cam. I can’t think of anyone who does the same quality as you do. Top-notch.
That is a very generous and appreciated compliment, thank you!
I’m still learning, but very glad you enjoy! It makes all the work worth it😇
@@TheLayoverAviation But you only fly or also you also stay where you fly.
You literally put each plane's route. How amaze I am👍🏻
I’m glad you like it😁
Think it’s nice to go where the go! ✈️
the best channel of trip reports!!!
What a cool compliment, thanks!
Things can always improve, so let’s hope what you say becomes true 🤩
You have immense knowledge of aviation. Always a pleasure watching your vlogs
Always a pleasure to read such nice comments, thank you for watching Ravi!
Watching from Malaysia. Wonderful trip ❤ report
Next trip is to Indonesia. And I’m visiting Malaysia soon!
@@TheLayoverAviation welcome 🤗
Regarding the startup, I was sitting right next to the engine on Emirates 777, loved when that GE monster began to spool up!! :-)) As for the landing at DXB, late night is a very busy period in Dubai, lot's of other flights lined up behind for landing so the tower often wants everyone to vacate the runway as soon as possible which is why the pilots have to make a short-field landing and leave the runway as soon as they can
Hey Gergö, you’re right about the late night landings, but it wasn’t late night! It was around 21:30 and the rush hour starts around 23:00.
As you can see there was no rush to vacate the runway early so we vacated almost at the end.
That’s why it surprised me. If it was during busy timings to vacate early I would have suspected so.
Thanks for the insight!
Another interesting video. Love it! Thank You for sharing. Kudos!
Thanks yet again Bernard! Always a pleasure😁
Great video. I lived in Meggen, Luzern (Lucerne) in the 1960s. I loved Swissair. Now I love Swiss. It is my ambition to go to my grave never having seen "The Sound of Music".
Follow your ambition and don’t give up!
I was forced to watch it by my grandma and mother so I could not be saved on time, but you can!😁
I’ll go 6 feet under without ever watching “Game of Thrones” or “Star Wars”.
You must have some nice memories if you flew Swissair around thise decades. Must have been a complete different thing of now.
I also love swiss now. Solid good Swiss quality and professional.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this amazing information! I’m boarding this same plane model in 3 days time and now I know the features of the flight! :)
Have a great flight!! I trust you’ll have a great experience.
Nice tripreport, the information how the 777 flaperon will be temporarily depressuized during takeoff was a really interesting fact! Cool to know :)
Took me years to find out why! Not even my B777 pilot friends knew.
The B787 does the same.
Thanks for watching!
@@TheLayoverAviation yea sure, thanks for sharing this, really nice to know :)
767?
Excellent video! I learnt something new about the flaperons during takeoff! ☺️👍🏽👏🏽
It took me a while to investigate that. I’ve always seen it but never understood.
Everything on planes has a reason!😁
Another superb report, I love your sense of humour. I always watch strange movies on flights when I have had a few G&Ts 😀
G&T’s make the world a better place, specially Hollywood.
Cheers to you Andy!
Love this another amazing trip n spectacular views
Always a treat to fly above the Alps!
Thank you for another informative, well researched video. Looked a great flight
Thanks again Nick!
Despite being full it was a comfortable flight indeed!
True story: In my dream last night I saw you had uploaded a new trip report and I clicked on it and it had a new remixed version of the beginning music with some vocals too. And when I opened youtube today, I see a new video uploaded!
So when in your dreams is the Qatar Airways QSuite video from Doha to New York coming out? 🤩
And the video was going to be uploaded yesterday, but I was sick on Thursday so you were lucky there!🤪
If only I'm a millionaire i would give you million flights just to make these amazing reports!
Why don’t you spend those millions to fly yourself?!
Not that I’ll reject it, more then happy to take it. Would make some awesome video’s😜
Thanks for the great comment!
Another amazing trip report, thank you! Swiss seems to have great service in economy.
Yes, very generous with rounds of beverages, from prior until meal finishing I believe they offered 4 times drinks.
Thanks for the comment Andrew!
Wow! I love your constant commentary with your facts and telling us what plane is going where. I didn’t know why the flaperon did that on takeoff until you mentioned it. Really good job! Subscribed 👍
Thanks for subscribing Lee!
There are just so much little big details to explain on all flights that it would be enough for a couple hundred video’s😄.
Thanks for the sub and the comment!
Great Trip Report as always buddy! love the editing :D
Thanks Itai!
I hate editing🥲
Great report. And I agree, SWISS livery may be Eurowhite, but it is so elegant!
It is! So simple yet perfect.
Love this! Been on this flight to Dubai so many times. Next month my flight from Dubai to Zurich is with the 777. First time in Premium Economy 🥳
Are they flying the B777-300ER back to Dubai?! Nice!
I’m looking forward flying their new PY.
Have a lot of fun, I’m sure it will be great!
@@TheLayoverAviation yes from Dubai to Zurich they are flying B777-300ER, the flight is on November the 5th. I am very curious about Premium Economy. Thanks!!
First time watching your videos. Very informative on aviation operations for layman like us! 👍 Keep posting em! All the way from Malaysia 🇲🇾
Welcome to the channel then!
Can’t wait to visit Malaysia again. Went to Perhentian Kecil some years ago and took some interesting airlines to get there. Hopefully I get to film next time!
See you around!
Nice video as always...my son and I eagerly await your next video.
It made me happy that you still watch it with your son.
Hope I can do the same with mine.
I’m working hard on the next video, think it will be quite a dish!
Very good review. New subscriber here. More of these reviews please.
Thanks for joining and for watching!
poor choice of Swiis to give hard icecream. Excellent trip report with very clear pictures
A very comfortable and memorable journey. Would love to fly Swiss in their 777. Thanks for sharing 👍
I just wish the flight had been emptier to show
more of Swiss, my flights with them are always full🤷🏻♂️.
Thanks for your comment!
When i was small , i was going to zurich or tanzania , i dont remember , my parents bought first class or business, it was nice .
Back in the golden days.. I hope you have a nice memory 😊
@@TheLayoverAviation thanks ! I hope you too!
What an amazing video mate! Enjoyed it! Liked!
Like always, thanks Jelmer!
Love the intro music :)
I’m glad you do!
Good job on the review!
Thanks Amin!
Wow Swiss🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice video ✈️!
I just watched some of your video’s last night before falling asleep, loved the Lufthansa Go around!
I'm very happy to visit you and watch the video.
It's not easy to experience. It's very interesting and new.
Thank you for the good video.
Thank you yet again Dalma!!
Your video always amazing
Thanks Usama😁
Just watched this one, great stuff as always from you 😃
The dessert could be a carrot cake, this is very popular in Switzerland
Thanks Davide, it is highly likely it was a carrot cake indeed! Just different to how I pictured it. Thanks for the info!
Thanks for the comment and glad you enjoyed!
@@TheLayoverAviation Hi :) just to clarify it was most definitely a slice of a carrot cake, which is sort of a traditional cake from the canton Argovia. Usually they top it off with mini carrot shaped almond paste (or Marzipan in German). The chocolate they offer in all SWISS flights is fantastic. Sadly I'm not much of a cheese person though I'm swiss born and bred but if I'd like a cheese of choice it would be Gruyère.
Nice travel report.
Thanks Justin! Glad you liked it.
One of the best aviation vloggers! Btw how do you know where the other aircrafts are headed to? Specially the Emirates one, enroute!! Or even the others after landing Dubai
Thanks a lot Akshay, so glad to read that!
I know thanks to live plane tracking apps, there are a lot out there. I explain how I know the planes flying around me in the Austrian Airlines B777-200ER video from Vienna to Tokyo!
See you around!
@@TheLayoverAviation Oh okay. Great. Thanks. Will surely watch that video
Excellent coverage
Thanks like always Krishnan!
Cheers to Ukraine, drinks Smirnoff I like that 👍🏼. Great trip report!!
I love the technical details at taxi and takeoff!
If I may ask, how tall are you, and how much of a difference did you notice from a 10-abreast 777 at 31' pitch?
I’m glad you like it!
I’m 177cm. 31 is good for me but 32” way better on the longer flights.
Thanks for watching!
Videaso!!!! Super fan de tus videos.Vamos a llegar a los 10.000 al mismo tiempo! :) Saludos!
Gracias Luis!
Llegarás tu antes😜
@@TheLayoverAviation 🤙🤙👋🏼👋🏼
Exciting 🤩🤩
flying always is!
Great flight.
Thanks! ✈️
Greetings again! Surely you are an (ex) pilot. You have so much knowledge about flap settings. I'm an ex Flying Dutchman now residing in New Zealand. I love your commentary and your taste of humour. Again well done!!
Hello flip! Thanks for your comment!
The knowledge comes over time, have always been observand since a kid.
I’m a little young (33) to be an ex-pilot 😛.
Looking very much forward to the Kiwi border opening!
See you around!
Great
the fourth official language we have is Romansh and not English, despite it is used everywhere, but that's just for the convenience for all the travellers & tourists :)
Yes I figured out after some late investigation😅
Thanks for the info!
I wonder if there ever was a Captian that made announcements in Romansh..
@@TheLayoverAviation haha that would be funny, it's really hard to understand any of that language which is very rare. Recently in Vancouver I met a fellow Swiss guy, native in that language, and he asked if I can recommend the place he worked at as a waiter, to Swiss people speaking romansh, as he missed talking that language. It was Steamworks Brewery haha...
Noted for whenever I am around there..
Thanks for sharing this nice story!
A thought or two to what u mentioned just as the aircraft landed :
Chances are that using the brakes results in more wear n tear than deploying reverse thrust.
Plus the ambient temp in Dubai, even during the nights can b high so the brakes will take longer to cool so better to go light on them specially with such a long runway .
Perhaps ?
Thanks a lot for the comment!
There is a lot of sense in what you say, but I still don’t think so.
The temperature was fine, in the 20’s and the aircraft would remain on ground for over 5 hours. B777 brakes take around 60-90 min to cool (The time is actually calculated on the pilot tablet). The A380 and A350 will show you how long it will take for brakes to cool.
Really wish I knew, cause I can’t say they did it “just because they wanted to”, but that’s what I suspect. With Swiss I always get full reverse in Dubai. I rarely do with anyone else, and I fly into Dubai 1-2 times a week..
See you around!
Why did i open my phone to seeyou here ..Me thinkiing the only guy in my mind.❤
Meant to be 😛
@@TheLayoverAviation Were are you miss not seeinv you around. Me wishing you Happy Holidays. Are you trying to wean me out of you? Lol. Well miss yiu terribbily.
@@TheLayoverAviation Me thinking were are you. Have i been uncaring with my words i am so sorry..
Great views of Lake Balaton as Hungary is my homeland :)
The country that is as beautiful as the language is tough!
I visited lake Balaton for the first time 3 years ago, never knew it was such a touristic paradise!
Thanks for watching!
Hope you had a good time, come back anytime
definately will ❤️ 🇭🇺
Specially for the food..🤤
like your video,swiss are the best airliness in lufthansa group
Very happy you liked the video!
Swiss is indeed the better service offering one in the LH group!
Hello,hello, I haven't been here for a while 😔 since I moved from one apartment to another, it's been such a stressful time for me 🥺
Now when I got half settled I can spare some time for myself 😊 and rest for at least two days. Hope you and your family are doing fine 🤗
Switzerland is so beautiful and so is their airline 🇨🇭👍
Now I will watch everything I've missed ✈️🛫🛬
Many regards and good wishes to you ☺️❤️
Ah dear, moving😣. I have to move houses in two months and it’s making me feel sick.
Still in Split?
Family is great, some Croatian family visiting currently. Hope yours is fine too🤩.
Greetings from Milan 🇮🇹 ✈️
Don’t get too tired, currently editing the next video: Qatar QSuites ❤️
@@TheLayoverAviation yes, still in Split, the nicest part of town 👌🤗
Hope you enjoyed Qsuites😉 who wouldn't 👍💯💕
5h 20m wow! With the A330 it takes longer, not?
It really depends on the winds, which I guess was the case this time.
The B777-300ER does fly faster though but on such a “short flight” it might only mean a 5 minute difference. On longer flights you might notice.
The B777-300ER typically flies between M 0.82 to 0.85 and the A330
M 0.79 to 0.82.
Thanks for watching!
@@TheLayoverAviation thank you!
Same with the 767
Beautiful trip-report! I also like your comments and informations in the subtitles very much.
A small correction regarding the info @10:46: the four official languages in Switzerland are (Swiss-)German, French, Italian and „Rätoromanisch“ (don’t know the translation in English: Rhaeto-Romanic maybe?). But the last one is spoken by so few that it wouldn‘t make sense to offer it as an option for the IFE 😂.
But you can see it @15:21 on the meal: „Enjoy your meal“ in English followed by our four official languages 🙂.
All the best to you!
Thanks for the comment and the info! I find it so incredibly interesting all these languages in Switzerland. What a country!
If a child is born there and manages to learn all these languages, besides English ouf course, that’s such a benefit for the future!
Would love to move there after Dubai, but while I speak French and understand Italian and German well, my wife does not not at all😅.
Thanks again for watching!
Awesome for your quick reply! Ex 747 captain. Would not mind an Emirates report. l have Gold Status and fly them frequently back to Holland. Many thanks!!
I have a few Emirates video’s around, and plenty more still to be edited! Living in Dubai makes Emirates my choice on 50% of all flights.. But people would get tired of seeing only EK!
One more should be coming out aoon. Until then, I send you greetings from Japan!
I’m quite sure the ˋdingˋ after start is the exit signs turning off and not the landing gear being up
The exit signs switch off when the gear retracts and switch on when it deploys 👍🏼
Do you pay for the pillow and blanket? Are headphones available as well? Im traveling internationally after 18yrs and will be flying with Swiss Air. Would appreciate any feedback necessary for a "first-time in a long-time" traveller!
A lot must have changed in the past 18 years, but don’t worry; everything on the long haul flights is complimentary. Have a lovely flight!!
Hey, I really enjoyed your flight report and I was wondering what editing program are you using?
I’m planing on doing a flight report in a week and I want to try a new program. I’m currently using I-Movies and it’s not working out for me haha
Thank you for the comment!
So I tried many apps, paying and free. At the moment I’m using VN editor on my iPad Pro. It’s free. While not the best, it does the job for me.
All the best and looking forward to your video!
@@TheLayoverAviation Thank you very much, I’ll try VN editor
You should change your ticket to the Lufthansa 747-400 for the return leg back to Europe
Hey Ben, no I should not as it’s a 1am departure and 6am landing, terrible! But I have something better..
I already filmed Frankfurt-Dubai on the B747-400 🙌🏼
First Qatar Airways this week and after the Lufty B747.
Do they have a self-service snack bar close to the washroom area?
In the description box you could also write down: (1) airfare price (points Q), (2) ticket class, (3) acquisition time.
Hey Moris!
Poor me, even more work..😅
So, I edit video’s out of sequence. Let’s say I film 40 but I wont release them on order. So I would have to go deep into my emails to find prices and all that info.
Some I pay miles & cash and others are paid by my employer.
And also I don’t really like sharing prices when I find it’s expensive. I’m very happy to show when it’s very low though, as in my Ryanair video😂.
In brief, I’m afraid it will be quite hard for me to mention all your requested info.
I have watched MANY flight reviews and yours are the best! I wish I had discovered your before! Can I ask you some question? How did you know what cities you were flying over? Did you get the WiFi or was it using flight maps? Thank you
Hey buddy, thanks for the nice words!
It’s quite a new channel, so there wasn’t much here before😄
Regarding the cities: I either know by the moving map on the IFE and if I don’t I’ll check out the flight path that we had and check where we were flying at the time that the fragment was filmed. It’s actually very easy.
And yes, if I have WiFi I can just check on the spot where I am. But there are some tricks as you can see!
@@TheLayoverAviation awesome...and totally makes sense now you have said it! Do you have an Instagram?
I’ll try, but I really have 0 time for it at the moment.
I only get to sleep 4 hours a day between my job, the video’s and family😁
Please explain definition of seat pitch
So basically the legroom space between your seat and the one in front.
Like your TV is measured in inches, so is legroom space on planes. No idea why. I mention is as a measure for other, I don’t care as long as its either I like it or don’t😆
& hows the pitch trim of an aircraft calculated...is it calculated by ground dispatcher,considering weight of the luggage or by the pilot?
Awesome video! However, at 8:28, you say "the power comes back". Not sure that is entirely accurate. Once TO power is set, it's set until their noise abatement procedures allow them to derate at which point the aircraft accelerates (due the noise attitude decreasing) and the flaps being retracted.
Hey there! I’m not talking about the take off thrust reducing to climb thrust, but about the hydraulic power returning to the flaperon.
But still thanks for the info!
The B777 is used less often than the A330 in this route
True, it was just temporary during the high season. It’s back to A330 by now.
Please a Trip from Salzburg to Dubai
I’ll try some day, but I don’t have much business taking me to Salzburg..
I’ll publish soon another video on the Flydubai B737 Max 8 and the service and aircraft should be the same, only the destination changes 😃
Thank you for sharing 😍
About the food, did u buy it or it's free?
It’s all free, and the drinks too!
@@TheLayoverAviation thanks for answering♡ i have another question: I’m planning to travel from Luxembourg to dubai, and i found that the journey has a stopover in Zurich for 1 hour, is 1h enough for me to change the airplane?
My pleasure😃
Yes, Zurich is a very effective and organized airport, an hour is enough. I wish you a happy flight!
@@TheLayoverAviation thank you 🥹❤️
Personally I watched this because soon I am taking LX197 for Tokyo on a business trip, and I wanted to know what food would be like for flights departing from Zurich. Food in the video looked absolutely fantastic, but I wonder if they offered another cheese-free option? Thanks
I’m quite confident that they should have a Japanese style choice aswell on your flight, most airlines do when flying to Japan.
The food was great indeed, one of my favorite in Europe.
Regarding cheese free, you can always request a non lactose meal.
Enjoy the flight!
@@TheLayoverAviation thank you so much!
Из Швецыя и швецария в саудовскую аравию и дубай!!
At 5:40 bro your information is wrong I always see rudder being at right side I travel with emirates after every 2-3 months rudders always at the right and that’s because of parking brakes when pilot apply parking brakes at airport that causes the rudder to move it’s position if I’m right but no hate always love your content❤️😍🥰
It’s right, trust me😇.
If it’s always on the right it means that the wind is blowing from the left. If you look closely on the video you can even see the clouds moving to the same direction as rudder, indicating that the wind blows from the left.
See you aroun!
What you couldn't identify was a carrot cake, very common in Switzerland
Was it now? I love carrot cake, this one was then different to the ones that I know.
Thanks for the info Valentin!
Does the blankets given in swiss airlines smell weird or not?
Not that I was aware of.. I wouldn’t have used it..
But I love the design, and I even have one at home to cover the couch with😜
@@TheLayoverAviation 😂👍
From where did you arrive on that CS at the beginning? Just wondering!
Frankfurt! Was not really going to shoot a video until I saw how awesome the plane was. Good I did, it was a fun bumpy ride.
What a plane the CS/A220 is. My new favourite short haul one!
@@TheLayoverAviation glad you liked it
Hello I'm from Indonesia
Gosh I love your country and food!
Bihon Goreng ❤️
@@TheLayoverAviation 😄😘
I have been on Swiss airlines once to visit Switzerland where my aunt lives and I will never fly with them again. The service was absolutely terrible for example, there was a cabin crew handing out food and when he came to me I asked him if they had the vegetarian option he said it ran out then I said really? Do you have anything without meat/chicken and his reply was “we do not have ANY more vegetarian options and you’re gonna have to cope with that.” Seriously? I asked him in a kind way and that’s the response I get? Second example I wanted to use the bathroom while he was handing out drinks to the passengers I stood up and there was clearly a big amount of space next to his cart I asked could I please go through to reach the bathroom? He literally shouted SIT DOWN IMMEDIATELY SIT SIT and the seatbelt sign wasn’t even on? There was a CLEAR amount of space next to him which I know I could go through. Final example when the flight was finally over the same guy was standing next to the door saying goodbye to everyone and instead of being kind and at least saying goodbye he rolled his eyes at me. That was the worst flight I have ever experienced and I hope that I never have to go on that airline ever again.
9:48 that sounded so much like hindi
22:40
How much did you pay to fly Swiss to Dubai? I am curious.
You love the prices! I can’t remember anymore but it came as a package from Belgrade to Dubai, it costed around 400-500 Euro perhaps.
😅😂 I see, that's expensive.
never ever a B777 in 3-4-3 configuration!
There is very few airlines left with 3-3-3..
Flight rates pls
Maybe around 500-600 Euro? Can’t really remember
You are right when you say that Swiss is positioned as the premium brand within the Lufthansa group. That's sad enough. I've flewn with them several times from TXL ( Berlin ) via Kloten to LAX & BKK.
Their crews are typically European. Rather profesional than warm hearted and friendly. The space in their 773 is ridiculous. You have more space in a chicken cage. I payed 100,- € for an ordinary seat ( 32 K ) at the aisle. No extra space for that money. There are 10 seats in one row and when they all eat it's tighter than in a prison cell. Their First & Business are really superb and state of the art, but Eco is bad.
So it depends from your point of view and travel class.
Hey again Nikolaus!
So I agree that I it felt a little tight but then again the flight was 100% full. I found it not perfect but not bad either. I was lucky not to have a sh*t neighboor who took my armrest or foot space, so despite being on a window seat I felt ok. But I can perfectly imagine it becoming frustrating for some, specially if you pay 100€. That’s a lot. Swiss numbers!
And you’re correct about the crew.
I only tried First and yes, it was great. Business never tried it because it just does not wow me. It looks so low and compact, I just have countless other preferences before paying for that. I might be wrong.
And about the premium touch in the LH group, I guess it’s mostly the small details, such as more beverage, meal choices & quantity.
But then it all depends on who delivers you the service. I still have ti publish my mega Lufthansa flight on a B747-400. Boy was the crew fun and helping me to film!
See you!
Why do you have so many dislikes?
