Really enjoyed watching . The views at 4:36 and at 6:52 just beautiful. The person recording did a great job in my opinion, i sort of felt that i was literally on the plane.
Hey this was totally cool to see... Leaving from my home state Alaska to go over the north pole. Too cool! :) Summers are definitely beautiful up here. This video gives me great ideas!
Wow, fascinating. That's something I wouldn't mind doing. And I'd like to fly Lufthansa; everybody I know who has flown with them had only good things to say.
I think you'll find that they do. Emirates fly regular dubai - JFK or Newark flights on the 777. It doesn't matter whether it has 4 engines or 2, you could lose 2 engines on the port side of a 747 which would be the same as losing one engine on a 777. It's not about the number of engines, it is the amount of time an aircraft can maintain altitude and bleed air requirements on a single engine. This 767 can dump fuel which would likely be another requirement to increase single engine perfmnc
in Condor economy class there are no individual screens... I read something that they're trying something out like WLAN inflight entertainment, so people with iPads or smartphones can access a database of movies music etc. on board. unfortunately there are still no screens on the back of the seats. and not sure whether the WLAN service is already running on all B767 planes
why do commercial flights go over the north pole, Iceland and Greenland? is it because its a shorter route or does it have something to do with the Jetstream?
The North Pole is used as a faster route to get to certain destinations depending on where you are leaving from and going to. All flights try to be no more than a 2-3 hours from land in case of an emergency.
+Jeff Hietala Not necessarily. Flights over water are always within 2-3 hours of land. Even over the Pacific there are islands that are along routes for an emergency. Obviously it's not ideal but planes making trips like that have multiple backups.
Hey , im going to be going from Frankfurt to anchorage on the same flight, was there anything you didnt like about the flight? and did they have individual screens with entertainment?
interestingly, Anchorage is not much further from Frankfurt, than say, Miami would be. Just look at a globe, then you'll understand. The map projection we use really contorts distances
At the altitude, there's virtually no difference in temperature between the North Pole and the equator. Also, planes are able to generate heat from the engines etc.
I was told only jets with 4 engines are allowed to veer off from civilization(north pole or middle of oceans must have 4 engines) What point in your video is the north pole?
the flight sucked... 10u30 minutes, with a very short space for your leggs... no individual screens except in bussinessclass. But Alaska itself was amazing!!! it is almost 1 year ago and still thinking every day on the magnificent journey!

Memories are strong with that one. I've flown over there a couplke times, too. AndI loved how the plane was shaking over Greenland all the time :D

You're quite lucky, it's an amazing state/place!
Around the 7:45 mark is absolutely stunning.
You can tell there are Germans on the plane. Someone is blowing his nose passionately at 11:17 min.
was not over the North pole, was greenland...
The north pole is located in Greenland

12:03 aahaha that cry/laugh while landing

Flow198812 i flew with them in 2015 on exact the same route, and in economy class there were individual screens
I love the forests in Germany
So which part of the video was over the north pole?
North pole was about 400 nautical miles from the most northerly point on the route
I'll be doing a similar flight from Vancouver to Frankfurt in about 6 hours...
What ! At twice the speed of sound? I don't think so , it takes at least 10 hours!
the flight is only 6 hours?
looks like a great journey, not the best flight but it's good.

If you are on a flight from Los Angeles to Sydney and something goes wrong than you are screwed!!
+Jeff Hietala Not necessarily. Flights over water are always within 2-3 hours of land. Even over the Pacific there are islands that are along routes for an emergency. Obviously it's not ideal but planes making trips like that have multiple backups.
it is because the earth is FLAT and stationary.
Derek Wall yeah it's called great circle route and also the upper winds are lighter over polar regions

How many hours was the flight?
'it is so rare to have a beautiful sunny day when i m flying.'
here, always sunny :) , and theres no snow :(
#Indonesia
fahru roji yeah and 90f with 90 percent humidity UGH
Wow I didn’t know a 767 can fly for that long BTW how long was the flight

how the hell the fuel/windows doesnt freeze up? outside temp must be like -70 F, thats fucking scary :O

The 767s are not that old. They are still in production. So condor may replace older 767s with NEW 767s.
Why don't they buy 747-8i
Dude!
where's santa? lol jk, that looks really cool. I flew back to NY from Poland and we flew over Greenland, it was amazing.
@padiwan20 9 hours, 45 mins

santa hid
Its fake
+Karen Bazzel you are crazy you can do this you know
Karen Bazzel what's fake?
Karen Bazzel well by your logics all flights are fake!
