The A340 isn't planned to leave Swiss as far as I know, it should even be getting a new Premium Eco cabin. We should still have a bit of time with this big bird ... Great video!
We always enjoy flying on the A340´s! When travelling in Economy class as a couple, nothing beats a 2 seat window config! Thanks for the video. Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Greetings from Copenhagen - Maxi and Maro :-D
Absolutely! I think exactly the same! That seat config is not the best for those in the middle seats, but for the ones seated on the lateral rows is amazing! haha :) Have a great week!
Muy bueno el vídeo, sin duda alguna lo que mas me ha gustado ha sido los aviones que he visto en Londres ha sido genial los monstruos que he podido ver en este vídeo gracias a ti, y me pregunto cómo sería volar en uno de ellos si tengo oportunidad de hacerlo sería lo mejor que he hecho en mucho tiempo. Hoy me has alegrado el día . Un abrazo
Muchas gracias, Rafa!! Entre Londres-Heathrow y Amsterdam, se pueden ver aviones de casi todas las aerolíneas del mundo que hacen largo radio. Son 2 verdaderos templos de la aviación :) Que tengas una buena semana! :)
I really wanted to fly on one of these but alas, they're no longer ☹️ I hope they make the engines neo like they did with the A330 and bring them back.
Well, for now, they are still flying for only a couple of them... Hopefull the pandemic won't accelerate even more the retirement process of these 4-engine planes... At least we know that Lufthansa wants to make the B747-8 their flagship... so we'll have them at least flying for the next 10 years or so :)
@@OnBoardHD oh, I didn't know that! Good on Lufthansa. I think they're one of the few airlines who can afford it, and things will slowly get back to normal as we now have the vaccine. I enjoy your videos by the way 😊
That's not a real plane. Is just a generic model of a plane to be used for training. It's very common that all airports have one like this for firefighting training. Hope you've enjoyed the trip report! Have a nice weekend :)
Lovely video mate. It always nice seeing wide body aircraft being used on short haul flights. I see they have been using the Edelweiss Airbus A340 on the LHR-ZRH route over the last new days as well. ✈️
Thanks a lot, mate!! Glad that you liked it! :)) I didn't know that Edelweiss was making this route also on the A340 from time to time! I will try to find one of those flights and book it! :DD
I Like...My first flight as a cabin crew with the A340-300 was ATH -LHR - ATH.First Transatlantic ATH-YUL-YYZ-ATH...Good memories from this amazing aircraft...Question was the cabin shaking during takeoff?(typical of A340)
Thanks a lot, Petros! Glad that you've enjoyed this Trip Report! :) Uff! I really can't remember that... this flight was recorded in October and I've done around 20-25 flights after this one... not easy to remember those details hehe Have a nice weekend :)
7:10 They are building stand 235 and 234 and a huge underground baggage handling system. They are also opening that taxiway - Kilo, at the moment that taxiway is cul-de-sac.
You got to travel internationally in the pandemic! Lucky you! I traveled in the pandemic too! But it was a domestic flight here in Saudi Arabia from Abha to Jeddah! We *really* enjoyed it actually 😄😅❤️♥️❤️👍Greetings from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
Well, all the video that you have on the channel since July have been recorded during this pandemic situation... I don't know why are you so surprised in this occasion :D Glad that you've enjoyed this Trip Report! Have a nice weekend! :)
Excelente video! En el 95 tuve el gusto de viajar en un A340 de la TAP Air Portugal nuevo de paquete! Realmente es un avión sobrio, silencioso, con todo en su punto y excelente calidad, pena que los están descontinuando, pero en fin, hay que dar paso a las nuevas generaciones. Tu video estuvo como siempre buenisimo, las vistas fantásticas, los aeropuertos de diseños impresionantes y la calidad de imagenes sorprendente. Felicidades! 👍
Muchas gracias!! Me alegra que te haya gustado! :) Uff! En el 95 no había hecho yo ni un vuelo jaja El primero debió ser por el 2002 o así. Saludos y buena semana!
Wow! That's cool! I love the A346 as well! I flew on it twice in the same route: London to Madrid. Now Iberia has retired them faster than it was planned due to the pandemic... =(
Ay que pena que el A340 vaya de retirada, me parece tan bello ese avión. Además que tengo un grato recuerdo, la primera vez que me subí a un avión fue en uno de Air France. Caracas (CCS)- Paris (CDG).
Muy entretenido! ツ Da verdadera pena ver irse a estos A340s con el buen aspecto que tienen las cabinas recién renovadas... ¿se sabe si ya es definitiva su jubilación en el caso de SWISS? Igual aguantan hasta 2021, siempre que la situación mejore, claro... Un saludo!
Muchas gracias! Un placer que te haya gustado tanto este vídeo! :) SWISS lleva retirándolos poco a poco durante los últimos años... esperemos que la pandemia no acelere aún más ese proceso, pues me gustaría volar alguna vez más con ellos en largo radio en 2021... =/
gran video, como todos los que haces. Como sugerencia, me gustaría que transcribieras los mensajes de los pilotos cuando son en inglés o en un idioma diferente al castellano, si te parece bien. Aun asi, enhorabuena y un saludo.
Muchas gracias. Me alegra que te haya gustado. Por ahora el software con el que edito no me permite poner más que un cuadro de texto por clip, por lo que tu idea, aunque buena, no la puedo llevar a cabo.

Ηi Lucas,this video was a pleasant surprise for me.Always a pleasure watching a flight report in a widebody plane and especially a classic A343.My only memory from A343 was 25 years ago when I flew from Zurich to Hong Kong in a Cathay Pacific one.These planes at that time were brand new and very comfortable.Anyway I liked the report very much.Loved the wingview.Cheers
Thanks a lot!! SWISS is using some days the B777 and A343 for this route to London during these months. Glad that you've enjoyed the trip report! Have a great weekend! :))
Es una pena que cada vez menos A340-200 y 300 estén volando en europa, entiendo que ya sean aviones antiguos y que las aerolínes busquen aviones bimotores más eficientes por temas de economía pero los cuatrimotores como este y los 747-400 le dan un ambiente especial a los aeropuertos con su imponente presencia, esperemos que sigan volando más tiempo en otras partes del mundo, excelente vuelo con Swiss
Excellent video! Do you know when they will retire this aircraft from their fleet? I'm looking on the same route as you from LHR to ZRH but all the routes seem to show the airbus a220 and a320. Can't seem to find the a340-300
Thanks a lot, Abdur! Glad that you've enjoyed the video so much! :) As far as I know, it was planned to happen between 2020 and 2021. It's not common to see them on this route. Usually it's operated by A220. Greetings! :)
Es triste que no podamos ver LX en el Aeropuerto de Incheon. Hace unos años LX trató de iniciar la operación en este país, pero debido a que ICN estaba saturado sus esfuerzos fueron en vano.
Vaya... la verdad es que no tenía ni idea de eso... Veremos como queda todo después de la pandemia... es de esperar que haya más huecos en los aeropuertos. Ahí pueden tener la oportunidad! :)
Hola, saludos desde venezuela 👏 , aqui aun tenemos dos a340 de la serie 200 y 300 , el 300 esta en iran haciendo un supuesto servicio, la aerolinea estatal venezolana conviasa pasara ha operar dos a340, tambien quiero agradecer por tan grandioso contenido de tu canal y tambien por la calidad, yo actualmente soy alunmo piloto y espero algun dia viajar a europa ✈

Muchas gracias, Gerardo! Me alegra que te haya gustado este vídeo! :) La verdad es que estuve a punto de hacer que esa toma fuese la miniatura del vídeo... pero al final me decanté por una en la que apareciese el avión al completo. Saludos
It is cheaper to make a flight every X days like this one that maintains the plane and crew current than the maintenance and simulator costs without flying.
Evidentemente, el A340 está preparado para llevar 15 veces más combustible del que llevó en este vuelo. Evidentemente va a hacerlo todo mucho más rápido así.
Brilliant video! You got a really nice wing view on an A340-300. You're super lucky to fly on it because many airlines are retired it on their fleet nowadays. Despite the old plane, I'm surprised to see the Swiss A340 cabin, the seats and the IFE are modern, the legroom is quite big too. I immediately subscribe your channel for more videos about the A340.
Thanks, mate! Glad that you've enjoyed it! :)) Yeah, for now they are still operating the A343 for long-haul routes and also for some of these flights to London. I guess because of the cargo demand and to to keep personeel current. Have a nice week and welcome to OnBoardHD :)
Muchas gracias, José! Un placer que te haya gustado este viajecito! :) Lo vamos a echar mucho de menos, desde luego que sí! Yo ya echo de menos el A346 de Iberia... está muy bien el A350, pero el A346 era incomparable... Saludos! :)

I really enjoyed this video. I noticed that Heathrow doesn't use baggage tractors with a train of dollies anymore. Instead they now use trucks for luggage. Only on this channel we get those detailed interesting aviation stuff.
Very nice trip report and glad you managed to get on that flight! My favorite flights on A340 were a long time ago: Etihad A340-500 AUH-FRA and Lufthansa A340-300 CPT-MUC. Both in Business Class with amazing service! I had some more LH A340 flights mainly to/from the US. Cheers
Thanks a lot, mate! Glad that you've enjoyed this one! :) This was my 3rd flight on A340. The other 2 were on the Iberia A340-600 (sadly retired, due to the pandemic). I would like to fly on the Lufthansa A340 in long-haul in 2021 before they retire them as well. Let's see when it will be possible! :))
Muchas gracias. Me alegra que te haya gustado! 😊 Loa aviones y los pilotos tienen que continuar volando. No son como un coche que se aparca y ya esta. Seguramente hacer un vuelo así cada X tiempo sea mucho más barato que el coste del mantenimiento necesario en caso de no volar durante meses.
That's truly a unique experience! An A340 on an intra-EU flight! Also, you got the refurbished cabin with new ZIM seats! LHR is also a great place for plane spotting and, since several airlines have been transferred from T3/T4 to T2, you also got the chance to spot several airlines that usually don't operate from T2!
Totally correct! This situation allows you to see a lot more planes at the same terminal than last year. Glad that you liked this one! Have a great week! :)
A340 is ❤️
I love that plane as well!
I will try to fly on it as much as possible before they retire them from the skies! :)
The A340 is the only modern Airbus I haven’t been on yet. I need to fly it once.
Buen video.. no sabía que Swiss operaba ese vuelo con A340.. un like!
Últimamente lo hacen bastante. Supongo que por su capacidad de carga.
Me alegra que te haya gustado el vídeo!

Wait, so they are retiring their A340's even after they just refurbished the cabins? So sad!
Well, the seats won't be lost. They can be used in other planes.
It didn’t look like there was many on this flight. Why aircraft of this size for such a short flight? Kind of overkill, 4 engines
2:52 What kind of aircraft is the one above the 3 engine of the Airbus A380?
That's not a real plane. Is just a generic model of a plane to be used for training.
It's very common that all airports have one like this for firefighting training.

y virgin atlantic dejo de operar el a340?
Hace ya un par de años =(
I thought this was before the pandemic. I am surprised to see the A380 back in action!
This was recorded some weeks ago, and it's not an A380, but A340.
@@OnBoardHD i am talking about the A380 at 2:52
"Wonderful Landing!"
Glad that you've enjoyed it, Simone!
Have a nice day :)
Excelente video !!! Muy suave el aterrizaje !!
Muchas gracias, Omar!

Son pantanos lo que se ve una vez despegado ???
Son "embalses" (comillas porque no son los embalses que estamos acostumbrados a ver en España). Reservas de agua.

Jajaja Y después de verlo sigues pensando lo mismo? :D

Hola!
Magnifico vídeo, como siempre.
¿Como es que para una radio "corto" usan un a340? Gracias!!!
Muchas gracias. Me alegra que te haya gustado! 😊
Loa aviones y los pilotos tienen que continuar volando. No son como un coche que se aparca y ya esta.
Seguramente hacer un vuelo así cada X tiempo sea mucho más barato que el coste del mantenimiento necesario en caso de no volar durante meses.
Que lindos los niños
Jejeje ✈✈
Annoying kids on a plane.. 😩😩😴😴😴
Well, there are passengers as well :)
@@OnBoardHD haha I guess you can also say that
@@OnBoardHD btw loving your videos.. keep at it!!
6:58 saw your face :)
Well, you can see it as well on the several Vlogs I have on the channel ;)
@@OnBoardHD yes
Por qué lo retiran?
Porque es de los aviones más ineficientes que ahora mismo en los cielos.
@@OnBoardHD pero rinde bastante
That's truly a unique experience! An A340 on an intra-EU flight! Also, you got the refurbished cabin with new ZIM seats! LHR is also a great place for plane spotting and, since several airlines have been transferred from T3/T4 to T2, you also got the chance to spot several airlines that usually don't operate from T2!
Totally correct! This situation allows you to see a lot more planes at the same terminal than last year.
Glad that you liked this one! Have a great week! :)
Ahhh the crying baby, a classic! In an airplane near you!
