We flew Play last month and it was great. Coming from NYC we took a car, but Megabus has a route to Stewart for $25. There were 5 of us. One of the group complained about the cost of parking for 7 days. So I reminded him that the parking cost about $100, but we cumulatively saved $2500 in airplane costs!
Wow this is amazing thank you for the comment. The bus is great if you are solo but as a group you will save more driving and just parking. We opted to drive and park and this helped us save a lot as well
I adore yall! well as much as one can "adore" youtbue people you dont actually know lol. Yall have really inspired me to step up my travel game! I still pay a lot more for flights, Im genX and require way more comfort than when i was zipping around the planet in my 20s and 30s. The details and helpful content has been literally TOP TIER! keep it up and keep seeing the world!
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel. We are so appreciative for all the support because we try to make videos that can be beneficial to you guys to make travel more feasible for you all. Glad you find it helpful haha.
Great review! I'm flying from Dublin to Toronto with Play in October, so I'm worried about not having TVs on such a long flight, but the prices are definitely worth it. And it's good to hear they left the airport on time.
Oh wow - great tip! So does Play airlines offer the same thing as Iceland Air? That you can stopover in Iceland for up to a week with no additional cost if your flight? That would be amazing!!
@@dinalarocca5974yes but I’d recommend Iceland air, play was very bare bones and not so clear on their website on stay dates in Iceland. I think I had to request days, it was a pain. Iceland airs website is way more clear on dates and a better overall experience. Also the Iceland air lounge in Keflavik is 10/10 👍
My oldest son and I are considering IAD to Paris as well in September...sounds like it might be a good adventure! If I can save money there and back, I can probably handle even a flight update or two. Last I checked, it's like the difference between $880 on Play and like $1300 (or more) on Aer Lingus!
I love that neck-pillow idea! Why haven't I ever heard of that! Btw - I love SWF and PLAY. Did it last year and have tickets for later this year already. 👍
Thank you so much for your support! I'm thrilled to hear you love the neck-pillow idea and are excited for SWF and PLAY. Your enthusiasm means a lot to me, and I hope you have a blast at the event!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled that the neck pillow suggestion surprised you in a good way. It's always great to hear that my videos are helpful.
I live in the Lehigh Valley in PA so SWF is about a 2 hour drive and no traffic. So I would definitely prefer to fly out of there than JFK. I'm used to low cost carriers, as I normally fly Allegiant when I go to Florida. So I pretty much know what to expect when flying Play. Hopefully I'll be able to fly Play to Iceland and Liverpool as both are on my bucket list.
That's great that SWF is so conveniently located for you! Flying out of a smaller airport can definitely be more convenient and less stressful. I hope you get the chance to fly with Play to Iceland and Liverpool soon!
Been flying flyplay before they were flyplay. Just flat out affordable. Heading to iceland this April for $275... Round trip. And Greece in September for $800. 🤷 Where else can you get prices like that
Great insight, and shout out about Toronto! Unfortunately Hamilton is very far from where I live so not sure if the cost and the drive would be worth it for me, but happy you had a positive experience. Regarding your baggage, which packs did you guys use?
Thanks for sharing! It still maybe easier to either drive or fly into it at the low pricepoint. I know Canada does not get as many deals as we do in the United States
Great video! I have a trip from Hamilton to Iceland in October. I am asking can we bring our own food? what kind of food is allowed on the Play Airlines?
Thanks for checking out our videos and supporting our channel. Yes you can bring your own food but you have to watch about the liquids. If it is solid food there is no problem
Hi, thanks for sharing your experience with us. We booked a trip from BWI to AMS with them but the airline just gave me the booking number not the Eticket! when asked the customer service they told me we dont issue eticket and everything is under booking. Was it the case for you guys as well?
That sounds frustrating! I haven't personally experienced that with this airline, but it's always a good idea to double-check with customer service to make sure everything is in order.
Thank you for replying! I saw in your packing video that the Mrs has Baboon to the Moon 'Small' Go Bag. It's amazing that that size bag is able to pass as a personal. I've been influenced by the Mrs and will buy that bag for my upcoming Play flight@@ChewsToExplore
Not impressed with their policy at all! I usually dont get the cancellation policy but life thaught me that for longer flights or more expensive trips it might be a good idea so imagine my dissapointement when it turns out it doesnt matter in the end as apparently earthquakes and an errupting volcano isnt a good enough reason to cancel my flights to Iceland. Only a doctor's note, covid or death is included in their policy. So now Im down over 300 euro plus extra money for a cancellation insurace that is genuinly useless! Dont do it guys, its worth paying more somewhere else they at least care about their passengers.
I saw that when I was checking out. I figured my credit card has basically the same travel protection so there was absolutely no reason for me to buy it. I also didn't feel the need to pay for their highest plan for a refundable or changeable flight (which you usually pay for in the normal airlines too)

@@FranciscoCamino that’s $100 more for klm. Also that’s in October in the off season. I went in June during the summer. Au more expensive to fly. The savings were significant.

Excellent review guys! Useful info presented directly and plainly. Bravi!

You can fly out of DC then have a stopover in Iceland. Really nice option to have, cheers and safe travels 🍻🍻

Play used to be Wow Airlines prior to going bankrupt. Hope Play stays around for a while. Cheapest flight from US to Europe
I agree, it's always great to have affordable options for flights to Europe!
Thank you for your information. Especially your neck pillow is really a good idear. I was very surprised. 😊
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled that the neck pillow suggestion surprised you in a good way. It's always great to hear that my videos are helpful.
Love the blue backpack she’s wearing! Where’s it from? Also watched almost all your videos in a binge!!
Thank you so m uch for all the support, our bags are from Baboon to the Moon the small bags
The box, I got with my food in it... It was hilarious, it had the text "Play with your food " on it. 😂
That's so funny! It's great when companies have a sense of humor with their packaging.
Great video! I just booked with them from BWI to Paris so I'm watching reviews! Just have to get from ATL to BWI 😂
Hope you enjoy it!

Heading to iceland this April for $275... Round trip. And Greece in September for $800.
🤷 Where else can you get prices like that
Thank you for sharing your experience with play! It's incredible to find such affordable flights. Have an incredible time in Iceland and Greece!
I have to check it out one time and see what i find. Thanks for the info.

Can you bringe your own food from home or do u have to buy from the airport?
Yes you absolutely can!
Thanks for the headsup👍
No problem 👍
I need that neck pillow
Let me update it in my description now!

BWI in Maryland is an International Airport..so not correct. Washington (Virginia) is actually a smaller Airport
Thanks for the information thank you!
Do a video on how you traveled with just a personal carryon 😂 i cant 😂😂

Play flies out of DC now (Dulles, IAD)
This is great news. More affordable opportunities
🌺Is their aircraft interior and seats spacious?
Yes it was pretty spacious, but it was nice and an affordable flight to europe!

No. Other airlines cost the same from Europe and full service
Please send me those deals, I’ve never seen a full service airline round trip since Covid from nyc to Europe for $275
