    Great Comparison! I probably prefer the Q300 over the ATR 72. You just can't beat the sound of the engine on takeoff! You are soo close to 1k subs!!! Congrats in advance! Great video

    I would love to go on either but would prefer ATR on longer flights (30 min - 1 hour 30 min). Q300 more for shorter flights (20 min - 1 hour). But wouldn't go on one of these from WLG-INV or TRG-CHC. Just don't like turbo props on very long flights.

    • @AdAndPlanes
      @AdAndPlanes  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I do agree with you. Turboprops on long flights can just get boring and frustrating. For short routes though they are nice to travel on!

    I fly a lot on the Q300 but the ATR does annoy me by if you get a seat in the front, you’re technically at the back. Though with adjustable tables and reclining seats, the ATR seems more suited for longer flights in my opinion.

    Have flown on both on Air NZ regional domestic routes. I got on @ departure airport and go off @ arrival airport, so that's all that matters to me. The ATR WGT-CHC is only about 10 mins longer flight time than flying on a A320. 10 mins..big deal

    AdandPlanes Finally Made my decision. I have decided the ATR 72-600. I just think it looks cooler and the tray table is adjustable and the seat can recline. Hope you like my Opinion! Mind telling me YOUR opinion?

    • @AdAndPlanes
      @AdAndPlanes  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I appreciate any opinion, even more so if it is backed up with facts like yours! The ATR is a great choice. The interior is more sleek and modern, and the seats are nice too. I am 50/50 on both. I like the littleness if the Q300, as well as the Q300’s ability and comfort. The ATR, as I said, has a more pleasant physical cabin experience. Recliner and tray-tables are great too. One of my main selling points for the ATR is its wind flying capability. While A320s are complete drama queens and Q300s are a bit of a shake, ATRs I’ve taken have landed smoothly and without shaking in up to 90 Kph gusts. Thanks for the comment!

    • @zach_walkerdine
      @zach_walkerdine 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yea same. I am sorta 50/50. I could change my opinion but right now I 51/49. I change my opinions a lot. My favourite plane is the Concorde. It looks amazing

      @scottthomson8876 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have found the atr quite bumpy at times in flight but apart from when it hits a patch it is very smooth but I thought they would get quite bad in a windy landing

      Scott Thomson I was equally surprised. Didn’t shake for even a second arriving into Wellington with a 80kph southerly.

    Awesome video mate, I was just looking to book a flight from chch to tga in a few months and saw the model numbers were different through out the day so I googled whats the difference and google sent me to this clip. I did notice on anz it did have the exact same travel time even though the q300 is slightly faster on the specs in that magazine you were reading? I have these awesome noise cancelling technics earbuds that completely cuts out noise so thats not an issue for me, I have long legs lol so do you think its probably better to go on the atr for comfort if there's no time advantage with the q300? Thanks again for the clip!

    That's an easy pick for me. Dash8 all the way. They are faster and more comfortable. Always on time or ahead of scheduled time. I use to watch 2 airlines one with ATR72 and the other Q300 and over the same 700Km distance the q300 is 15min faster than the ATR72.

    ATR for me 2 Flight attendants I feel like the atr has more space and I like the door at the back.9/10
    Q300 to small (I wouldn’t mind if AIR New Zealand get a q400 one or two ) one flight attendant the only thing the I would give cridet for is the wheels you can see go up and down 7/10

  • @blackbird7575
    @blackbird7575 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think that having both make plane spotting a lot more interesting and would hate to see either go. That being said, I do think the q300 look astheticly better from the outside, due to the perfectly round fuselage, but from a passenger perspective the atr72 is probably better.

    No offence to anyone,
    But the ATR is a pretty silly design,
    On the ground the cargo and baggage loaders get fumes from the engines blown in their faces when the engines are idling to keep the electrics going, The it’s little low wheels means it pancakes it’s landing as it can’t flare very well.
    That also means it isn’t very stable on the ground.

      @@colinsouthern my bad ATR experience - I was near the back and was hearing two different very loud things that kept harmonising with a sound like a very loud beep. It sounded like someone was using a loud morse code thingy at the back of the plane for the entire trip. It was pretty horrific.
      Compared to that, moderate engine noise in the Q300 is very nice. :)
