      Exactly...i came here to say the same thing. I liked that he compared it to Qatar (Which is a #1 league club), no European and American airlines dare to match it. Only Singapore Airlines been in competition for the past few years to be the 1st. This is a great complement to ET and where it should shoot its goal. It has come a long way to be where it is now and yet to go farther! Rome is not built in day..as the say goes.

    "Look, I'm nitpicking"- yes, that's all you're doing... and its awfully tiresome! The only thing I'd be annoyed about is the WiFi not working. Every night flight I've taken with them, meal service is over and done with in an hour or so. Noel actually makes a particular note of that in his Ethiopian vlog. Cabin crew always efficient and mostly friendly. I'm sure if Ethiopian afforded you special access like airlines in SA and Namibia, this review would have turned out a lot different. Curious to see how the rest of your experience unfolds.

      Could sympathise with his Ethiopian experience on FR24 earlier this year. But, after watching this, looking at the previous one in a different light. Between these two reports and, by the sounds of it from the caption near the end, a further grand takedown on queue; he is clearly a man with an agenda.

    • @airedition
      @airedition  3 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      Haha, “clearly” with an agenda. Why though? If the airline is not very good, the reviews aren’t going to be very good, simple as that. I call it like I see it.

    • @airedition
      @airedition  3 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Theres’s a reason that I don’t do full review videos like this when I get special access on the FR24 side, because I wouldn’t be free to nitpick the finer details. Sorry if you find it tiresome but I find that useful when deciding where to spend my money. But your comment about special access also implies that I’m not impartial, just like the other one responding here who claims I have an “agenda” (this by the way is a favorite way to dismiss criticism by those who don’t want to be criticized or just don’t agree and want to discredit the source; it’s also lazy). And I resent that. So you’ve had quick meal services? Good for you. I didn’t on any of the flights I took this trip. So consistency is also an issue with them. We can add it to the nitpicking list.

      ​@@airedition I appreciate you taking the time to reply in detail. I didn't mean to take anything away from your experiece. I've worked in Africa since the early 90s' and have flown nearly every airline on the continent. My experience varies wildly between carriers and their different eras. Consistency is a definitive issue with every airline in the world, but, on balance, Ethiopian has given me as good an experience as most major carriers from the hundreds of flights I've taken with them. I'm a huge flight review/ travel vlogs fan and my comment is based on my experience and over 90% of other Ethiopian reviews I've watched. I accpt they have faults but they also have redeeming qualities other than 'a new cabin'.

    Do you blame the bag issue on Ethiopian airlines or British Airways ? Last year I flew from Frankfurt to Washington D.C with a transit time of 2 hours in LHR with BA and the aircraft from Frankfurt was late to depart. Reached LHR and ran so fast to the gate for my next flight as I was gonna be super late since we landed much later than scheduled. To my surprise, the A380 which was supposed to take us to IAD got technical issues and there was an aircraft swap. Waited for three hours more until departure and yet they could not manage to load my luggage despite the 3 hours delay. Oh, I got the same issue again 4 days prior as I was traveling from Mauritius to Frankfurt transiting in LHR in business class ( Air Mauritius and Lufthansa). I think the problem is with Heathrow being a total mess when transiting

    • @airedition

      Yes counting on Heathrow to properly transfer my bag with important stuff in that I needed quickly was a bit of a rookie mistake on my part! Good news, it did make it in the end. If it hadn’t, technically it would have been British Airways responsibility and also in theory their fault. Always an interesting time transiting Heathrow, in any case!

      You’re buying trouble whenever you check a bag across two airlines at Heathrow no matter which airlines you choose. Best practice is never checking a bag in the first place. As for ET’s slow service at dinner, it’s a cultural thing. If express service is what you seek, then AA has that down to a tee. The problem is that it’s AA. Next time, I’d recommend eating in the lounge and skipping the dinner in favor of rest. ADD isn’t the best choice for connecting.

    It would appear Ethiopian Airlines no longer plays their amazing boarding music on the brand new Airbus A350-1000s. However what was a real surprise to hear at 10:07 Dvořák: Symphony No. 9 "From the New World" 😲 ❤️!! I'd hardly imagine that to calm you on boarding the aircraft 😉. If the fourth movement IV. Allegro con fuoco did play it would seem like Jaws met the Lord of the Rings lol.
    The Airbus A350-1000 looks amazing. Are those dimmable windows only in Business. Those inflight sreens are amazing just like on their -900s, though I was in Economy. Hope they send it to Toronto someday.

    A lot of people like the deep rumbling/whirring sound of the GE90s on the B777 upon start-up. Maybe they'd be less enthusiastic if they knew it's because if the plane has been shut down for more than an hour, the extreme static weight of the fan section has bent the main shaft. When the engine is started the shaft bearings take a hammering before the shaft realigns to straight, and that's that nice rumbling noise.

      Thank you very much for this! Yeah it is pretty funny how, especially with certain airlines, if you criticize them people start accusing you of having an agenda or being paid to smear them. It's the same sort of thing we saw with Cairo airport responding to the blogger who said it's a terrible airport, again claiming he was being paid by adversaries. What a joke. This is an unfortunate mindset prevalent in certain places - instead of taking criticism and considering how one might improve, the first impulse is to try and discredit the criticism and the critic. Anyway thanks for backing me up here, I appreciate it!

    Your grievances about the cramped cabin size, the discomfort of sleeping comfortably except when positioned on your side, and the noise levels experienced in first class seemed misdirected, as such critiques should have been aimed at the aircraft manufacturer, Airbus, rather than Ethiopian Airways. Granting you the benefit of the doubt, I sought out your review of Etihad Airways, a carrier you had praised, only to stumble upon your review of India's Airbus A350, the same but a smaller variant of Ethiopia's A350. Notably, while assessing India's A350, you didn't complain about cabin space, sleeping comfort, or noise levels but instead, you were all smiles dancing around expressing great satisfaction praising India's A350. Even incidents like misplaced luggage by British Airways and minor delays caused by the British at Heathrow Airport seemed to provide you with an opportunity to thrash Ethiopian Airways. Also, despite them being among the most courteous, friendly, modest, and respectful in comparison to other airlines, notably, you're quick to critique Ethiopian Airways cabin crew.
    With two decades of experience residing in the USA, I'm familiar with the game, strategies at play, where smear campaigns are commonplace across various sectors, including the airline industry, politics, and entertainment. The stark disparity in your reactions towards Ethiopia's A350-1000 and India's A350 (both of the same model) raised suspicions about ulterior motives - it is clear that you're ether driven by financial incentives or harbor an underlying antipathy towards Black progress with a particular bias against Africa's most successful airlines. Their success has posed a threat to the status quo, prompting your biased review.
    On a different note, you're correct in pointing out the deficiencies in their Wi-Fi service, meals and timing; I hope that they come across your feedback and take steps to enhance these aspects, leaving little room for further criticism. I, too, share your dislike for the dramatic classical music played on board.

    • @airedition
      @airedition  วันที่ผ่านมา

      Oh give me a break. The A350 is fantastic always. I noticed that the noise levels are slightly higher on this new version which has thinner sidewalls (which I framed as an observation rather than a complaint). Nothing else among the points I made has to do with Airbus. It’s about the seat (an airline choice), and the service flow and choices made there (the main thing).
      “Antipathy towards black progress?” Are you kidding me? I’m putting Ethiopian up against its competitors and coming to my conclusion about where they stand amongst them. You say in the end that you agree with most of the points I made about deficiencies! Go watch my video on SAA’s A340 to Perth and tell me if you still feel it’s correct to imply I’m a racist.
      Also, no one paid me. I always disclose any financial arrangements and the cost of the tickets (and how they were acquired).

      @@airedition No I am not thinking that way (superior) but Ethiopian Airlines has its own qualities to appreciate we are not a wealthy country but we are certainly doing our best more than some of the best developed countries. I see you think it better that you commented box. Anyway, I am Ethiopian and I am proud.

      @@ethio_apartements I pointed out the things that were good, and held them accountable for the things that could be better, suggesting how they could be improved. It's useful to look at it like this: if they were just awful, and hopeless, I wouldn't have taken the time to go into depth on this. It's because they are almost there, and I see they have potential to be one of the greats, that I am extra critical. The airline overall is a remarkable achievement for Ethiopia, and you should be proud! But from what they offer at this point, unless the fare is insanely good, I will be choosing other airlines most of the time. Here's hoping they continue to get better.

    Africans use them coz they are really cheaper compared to other premium airlines and they have the monopoly of African aviation. But their service is truly terrible for me . I only fly them if I have no choice . Like if I’m flying within Africa and there’s no other airline on that route . Had a terrible experience with them on my flight to london and since then never ever will I use them. SAA, Air Mauritius, SA Airlink and even Kenya Airways ( if you take away their monotonous delays and cancellations) have way better service

      Definitely agree SAA, Air Mauritius and Airlink are superior! Haven't tried Kenya yet, but really want to now!

      there is a reason they are dominating africa.
      If those airlines offer superior service then why are they going bankrupt then.
      Ethiopian must be doing something right.they are making more and more profit every year while those airlines you mentiomed are going backwards.
