As a punishment of giving Aero Dili a negative review the airline decided to post my Passport online breaching several Data Protection laws. They have also accused me of asking for a $50,000 bribe in order to give them a good review. An Airline that puts passengers safety at risk by publishing personal data of it's passengers, breaking international law as well as IATA regulations should not be allowed to expand it's illegal practices since this isn't the first time they have done this. We must take action and protect other passengers from having their personal data leaked, putting their safety at risk. Please forward this video to Singapore's Minister of Transport Chee Hong Tat - chee_hong_tat@mot.gov.sg to prevent Aero Dili from starting flights to Singapore in order to protect their citizens. Thanks for helping me to hold this airline responsible for their conduct of risking passengers safety.

Thanks everyone for your support! Here is Ministers Chee Hong Tat's Email: chee_hong_tat@mot.gov.sg as well as his Instagram: instagram.com/hongtatchee/ - Also free feel to warn travelers on Aero Dili's Social: instagram.com/aerodili/ & facebook.com/aerodili2018 - Let's try our best to stop their criminal acts!
Hey Josh, I thought the Qatar Airways incident was a nightmare but this one is way worse. By the way, what has been happening with the Qatar Airways incident?
The fact that Aero Dili still wants to fly to Singapore even when they breached personal data protection laws is just abominable. No paid passenger should have to experience this. They probably targeted you because you are a flight reviewer, and that in itself is discrimination.
Wow that's just unbelievable, well its actually not because a lot of these cultures take constructive, unbiased criticism as a personal insult instead of seeing it as most western cultures do a means of improving there customer service to avoid litigation and bad revues which inturn leads to loss of revenue .... for a Pilot to publicly name, shame, threaten & insult a passenger what can you say other than he needs a full physical, mental and drug test plus put on unpaid leave, preferable permanently blacklisted the world over...stay strong Josh so glad you alerted the world this disgraceful airline, hopefully Singapore will have the fortitude and ban them but money speaks more than customer safety
When the guy who ******** up doesn't realise you're NOT Sam Chui 🤣
As a German citizen your gdpr covers you abroad as well. Meaning they can’t process your data without permission. It doesn’t matter what country you fly too.
Okay, i never thought that an Airline could be more worse than Air Peace. I am speechless
Aero Drama
The fact that this incident makes Air Conflict looks good is itself an achievement…
ryanair aint even that bad@aviation473
😅
Hope Aero Dumbass doesn't last long
As much as it will be an extra expense and chore, I would seriously consider cancelling and renewing your current passport now. If it has been posted online it is wide open to be scanned and used for fraudulent activities. I would be absolutely livid if my data had been breached like this!
i expect he's done this already.
@@Pies. I do hope so.. 👍
@@hazy0077 pretty sure this was the first thing he did (well i hope it was lol)
Not only replace it but inform your government agency as to what has happened… in the interest of its citizens…
If you are abroad then it can be tricky & you have to wait for weeks to get your new passport if you managed to get to another country that isnt the issuer of the passport...
I work as a Data Protection Officer in a large company in Indonesia. Our country also has a strict data protection law, similar to Singapore. What AeroDili did to you was totally unacceptable, and is considered a criminal act. Let see if we can reach out to Indonesian Ministry of Transport, they may need to do something, even maybe banning the airline from flying to Bali, as it is our obligation to protect Indonesian citizens as well.
Thank you for stepping up to the plate on this one sir. Josh does need all the help he can get from professionals like yourself who know wrong doing when they see it.
This is the power of community! Good call.
He's an EU citizen, so GDPR should protect him even though the airline isn't and doesn't operate in the EU
Kurniawan your argument is non sense, as I mentioned above if Josh credentials posted in someone's private social
Media how you report the airlines? This things happened in Indonesia, and I think Acacio is an Indonesian citizen because he lives in Bali as I knew, if acacio posted josh's passport in his private social media why you blame the airlines? The guy must be one of the manager in Bali ground handling and josh review of food poisoning under his responsibility that this why I though he tried to created an argument to cover him. I sugest josh to contact the airlines about this person responsibilities for his unprofessional actioned,.if aero Dili did not take any actioned means Aero Dili concerns about that behaves and behind it, than Josh have the argument to scalate this report to relevant entities..its a private airlines nothing to do with Timor Leste government,.but to stop aero dili to fly to Bali and Singapore maybe only on social media, its not going going to happen because Aero Dili is the first private airlines in Timor Leste it probably gets support from the authorities over there.so you said to stop Aero Dili fly to Bali Timor Leste also maybe will stop Indonesia airlines fly to Dili that is why I said your argument is to funny.
Fully support to ban this airline to Bali, hopefully worldwide
This airline should be banned from flying 😨
Yes they should
he should inform the FAA
@@milenatomanic951they don’t fly to the US. FAA is an American governmental agency only having authority in the US.
@@milenatomanic951Wouldnt be a bad idea.
@@milenatomanic951how would the FAA help, they dont fly to the US
Consult a good lawyer; sue in an appropriate jurisdiction for defamation; get the aircraft attached in execution of the judgment obtained. Please do this, and do not only yourself, but everyone else, a favor. Pro tip: complain to IATA asking it to sanction; if IATA fails, sue IATA as well as it would be easier from a jurisdictional aspect.
This! Getting any legal action with Dili will be next to impossible. However, being IATA , they adhere to ticketing laws and IATA must revoke their tickets.
@@awesomehli, IATA can't revoke their tickets, and in theory it's perfectly possible to run an airline, even internationally, without an IATA membership or interference. However, in practice it's very hard and hurtful to their pockets to do so. Their ability to receive connecting passengers and to sell their tickets through other airlines is severely impaired, to the point of making the business unsustainable. So, going the IATA route is a better way of getting things done about a rogue airline than judicial litigation (which, just for a start, has jurisdictional problems) - as long as IATA becomes interested in taking any action, which is not guaranteed.
Lawyer s in indo start praying
Indeed someone higher up that allows these junk airlines to operate have to take responsibility, file suit for sure. Total invasion of privacy and putting you at risk on every level.
Yes, you should absolutely sue them for millions and do everything imaginable to make it hurt so much that they’re forced to cease operations as a company.
What a shocker. Definitely deserves to be called out. Airlines need to remember they only exist because of paying customers and that's the reason they exist. Time they got out of their ivory tower.
Unfortunately, they also have a monopoly (especially in poorer countries) so they feel untouchable because people need access to air travel. I'm shocked with what they did to Josh.
@@danielmorris6523 Aero DIli have 2 dayli flights 1 Dili to Bali, 2 Bali to Dili. I flew with Citylink, Bali-Dili and returned 4 days leiter with them to Bali, in the middle of January, So no, Aero Dili do not have a monopoly. Also, Qantas flyes from Darwin to Dili. That is all sheduled international flights at Dili Airport. It makes it even more unbelivable that the station manager at Denpasar was not pressent the 1 to 1,5 hours their plane where at the ground there.
Without government funding, a lot of Airlines wouldn't exist either.
Hi Josh, I have emailed Aerodili directly and ask them to confirm whether or not my personal details will be available on the Internet once I travel with their airline. I will let you know if I get a response from the airline and if need be post it on your site. You have our support in exposing this terrible behaviour Kind regards to you Josh,
Glen and Dianne,
Queensland Australia
I think that is a good idea Glen 👍
Don't wait, they're useless, they stole my wife's iPad last year and never got back to me. Better to fly on air Afghanistan than Aerodili
I doubt they will reply to your email mate
No reply from this airline. Am i surprised, well, NO. I vote with my feet and will now change the airline all of my staff fly with.
SUE THE AIRLINE, Aero Dili is not welcome in Singapore.
We are timor leste peoples are ashamed for our airlines to such things as timor east people i deeply apologize for this😞
It’s not your fault! You don’t need to apologise! Bless you!
This is absolutely outrageous. Lawyers must be contacted to send these criminals to prison.
Shocking. Can't believe this airline exists. To be avoided at all cost!
NO ITS REALLY GOOD AND ITS BETTER THAN ALL OF THE CHEAP CARRIERS IN INDONESIA, ITS A REALLY GOOD AIRLINE
Unbelievable! I've spent my whole life working for the Corporate Travel and Airline Industry and NEVER experienced such unprofessional and disgusting behaviour from an Airline. IATA needs to take firm action at ministerial level to deal with the airline involved.
I'm sure they'll now get 5 stars from Skytrax
😂😂@@adam.dzwoniarek72
Aero Dili is not a registered member of IATA. An IOSA safety audit is a requirement for membership.
@@adam.dzwoniarek72lol
correct!@@gregorylocke
They need to be brought to account. Such a precedent must not be allowed to go unchallenged
Agreed
I suspect Signaporean authorities will respond quite well. Even the airport(s) from a commercial and safety perspective wouldn't want them flying there and the other airlines using it wouldn't want them using the same facilities.
Singapore is known for taking their safety protocols very seriously
I agree, Singapore will very likely take this very seriously. It's a place where you can get into big trouble just for dropping litter.
@@digidol52 Definitely 100%
Singapore does take safety seriously.
As a cis white European male my privilege means that I know little about intersectionality based challenges, but while I could be wrong I have the impression that Singapore may not be among the most humane of sovereign communities with respect to LGBT+ rights, so the puke from Aerodili may be mistaken enough about the importance of the implied bigotry to actually understand how little it matters among the Singapore authorities compared to the doxing. Another sad but amazing example of how good Josh is at what he does.
I'm Singaporean. Posting passenger passport is not acceptable. I urge our ministry to ensure they follow proper laws before operating here. Esp SG passports have our IC number in it. Not even addressing the food poisoning issue.
Erh, how come yr SG passport got yr IC number one? SG passport has passport no only leh…
@@davidcks your passport must be old.
@@rubicon24 But old passports have IC because that used to be the passport no. right?
Wowwww that’s huge! And breaching data protection with no remorse for doing so either. Disgusting.
Horrible that this happened, I informed the Transport Ministry and the Police about this via email, hoep this gets resolved.
When you return, consult a good lawyer here in Germany and see where and under which jurisdiction you can file multiple lawsuits, including also official complaint to EASA and equivalent agencies. Btw I love it when scammers try to prove something with a screenshot. Anyone, literally anyone, can go into the browser, right-click, INSPECT, change HTML render, close inspector, and yeah, look at the screenshot.
it cost too, but less
@@herrys6752@herrys6752 I am not sure about Josh, but usually, in Germany, we all, or the majority of individuals, have Legal issues insurance (Rechtsschutzversicherung), which covers all costs of the legal process, lawyers, etc. As Josh works, so to say, as a business (I assume), he should have both professional liability and legal issues insurance.
I highly doubt EASA has jurisdiction reaching that far. The only thing they can probably do is put them on the blacklist...
But i would pick IATA & Indonesian authorities in this case if it was me
The problem is to hit Aero Dili on a German court as Aero Dili has no Busines in Germany. Wherher ist possible to hit Aero Dili in Indonesia or East Timor is a question on the laws and maybe your status and money spent right there
@skylineXpert East Timor is a sovereign state, it has nothing to do with Indonesia.
I can not believe an airline would ever do this! A company that is supposed to be professional and take priority in passengers safety, I would be ashamed of myself if I did this. And yes I do believe we should stop them from flying to Singapore, thank you for the review and the warning Josh!
As someone from Singapore, this is super scary.
The whole world should know this airline's disgusting behavior.
Oh man what a story. I’ve ranted on Aero Dilli’s FB page and messaged the Minister. Such an airline really must be stopped!
Most people wouldn't have the backbone to struggle through these gauntlets. Good thing we have you, Josh. Hold them accountable.
When people tell me that an airline is unsafe, I never expected it would be because of outright doxxing and harassment.
Can't believe this airlines disrespect for its passengers. Is there some sort of national airlines authority that can investigate them?
Sorry, no offense meant, but if you're talking about the East Timor authorities, that's highly unrealistic. East Timor is a small, young country (just over 20 years old) that's still building its institutions from scratch. In such countries, the relationship between the state and the private sector is highly promiscuous, and although Aero Dili is a private company, it's acting as an instrument of their state policy for aviation. The government needs private sources of financing and support more than the other way around. Aero Dili is said to be owned by the richest man in East Timor. That man probably owns a large portion of the country's economy and land, and certainly has immense power and influence on the government. It's not even about corruption, what you would call by that name is only a small facet of a much deeper and more complex relationship, and you can be sure that it's not in their MUTUAL interest that any kind of punishment is applied.
@@goytabr You are right about everything you wrote, but you forgot one crucial piece of information, namely: Mr. Josh Cahill is a German national and thus EU national.
The EU has very strict data protection laws, and Limor Leste is one of the privileged countries on the Schengen Annex 2 list of countries, whose passport holders that do not need a visa for Schengen agreement member countries.
An abuse of someone’s personal data like this one is a valid reason for revocation of the visa free regime and subsequent removal from the Annex 2 list, so Timor Leste government should be very very careful and they should do everything in order to mitigate the situation. They aren’t Microsoft, Google or Apple, and even those big names felt the anger of EU on their shoulders.
Remember, visa free entry to the EU for third country nationals is a big privilege, not a right. Only EU nationals have right to enter any EU country, the rest of the world doesn’t.
@@mitjaoblak708, I very much doubt that the EU would change its foreign policy toward an entire geopolitically strategic and potentially oil-rich country because of one Internet incident with one ordinary EU citizen, even if a legal link between GDPR and the Schengen visa policy (which are overseen by different institutions) could be established (which is doubtful). Besides, if it came even close to that, the East Timorese government would try to place the blame on a "private company" (which would get a public slap on the wrist) and deny any state involvement.
What could be possible would be for the EU to defer some aid payment while the case is investigated, but again, I doubt that Josh is a big enough fish for them to have the political will to risk their relationship with a strategic state for him. The way the Internet is full of all sorts of cyberbullying and slander everywhere all the time, soon they wouldn't have a sound foreign policy if they reacted that way to every such case.
If Josh had been physically attacked while in East Timor and the government could be blamed for that, it could be a different story, but even that would still be weighed against other state and foreign policy interests. They don't even do much about the dozens of EU journalists and voluntary health professionals that routinely suffer violence and even are killed in many parts of the world.
I’ve never heard of an airline doing this. As others have said, contact the German foreign ministry immediately and ask for a new passport. This is unacceptable behavior for any airline .
This airline is beyond ridiculous.
I will never fly this airline
You probably won't.
They only have 1 fleet of airbus + 1 cessna. The main route is only Denpasar-Dili.
Unless you're going to East Timor (which is super boring, nothing exciting there. Unless you're missionary I guess), you'll never fly with them.
@@EnseaclopediaBRO TIMOR IS FUN WHAT R U ON 😭
I did and had only good experiences.
Wow I will be sure to avoid them. I have flown to Singapore a number of times and will let my friends there know about your experience.
that's scary, imagine your passport is posted publicly by the airline without your consent. That is called MAFIA. I'm just speechless and shocked to hear this! Thank you for telling your audience this story. Now another airline will be in my "no -go" list and properly forever.
East Timor is a young nation, with a small population and a small economy, they have been through hell for decades. So we can understand it's not easy and there will be mistakes. However data protection and ensuring a flagship carier doesnt display a customer passport for revenge is crucial to trust that nation, travel and do business there. I wish for the leaders of east Timor that this will be be a wake up call.
Wow, Josh! Looks like you’re getting pretty good at stirring up a hornet’s nest….again. And, that is exactly why I subscribed to your channel a couple of months ago and is exactly why I continue to support your channel. Someone out there needs to keep these airlines honest, and so far, you are doing a damned good job of it! Thank you! 😉
He's like the RCMP in Canada or the Federal's in Chile. He is an unbribeable and honest cop.
@@CumulusGranitistooo bad, Trudeau has lobbied RCMP ! RCMP is now the most corrupt police agency in Canada
Its almost like authoritarian governments cant take any public criticism.
What do you mean authoritarian? The airline involved (Aero Dili) is based in East Timor which is a democracy last I checked. Also the airline is a private business and I doubt the East Timor government had anything to do with what happened.
While it is correct, there is no authoritarian government involved in this case. So it is really beside the story and problem at hand.
@@jfwfreo, being realistic, East Timor is formally a democracy, but then so are Russia and Venezuela, for example, so this is not really an argument. For all I know, it's not essentially authoritarian as those countries, but East Timor is a young country (just over 20 years old) that is still building its institutions from scratch. It would be naïve to expect those institutions to function as well as they do in mature, consolidated democracies, especially considering how poor the country is and the scorched earth that centuries of Portuguese colonialism followed by decades of Indonesian occupation, both brutal, left behind there. Everything, including the institutions, had to be built up from scratch, and that's an ongoing process still in its early stages. (No, this is NOT an excuse for anything, but it does illustrate how one can expect things to be very precarious there in all respects.)
I have heard many good things about the efforts that the East Timor government is making to build the country (and I'm from Brazil, a fellow Portuguese-speaking country that for this very reason has many collaboration and aid projects with East Timor, seen both as a little brother in need and as a potentially strategic ally in Southeast Asia, and therefore we have an above-average amount of information and news about it). Still, this doesn't change the fact that East Timor is both a very poor and a very small country, and in such countries the relationship between the state and the private sector is extremely promiscuous and has blurred lines. There's no reason to expect East Timor to be any different in this respect.
What you would call "corruption" is merely one aspect of a much deeper and wider systemic relationship. "Corruption" is even a simplistic term to describe a deeply intertwined partnership. Things run much deeper than that because inequality is also rampant and those few who have a lot of money have as much power to influence common people's everyday lives as the government does, if not more. They often have more resources than the goverment, which can't afford to ignore them.
I read that Aero Dili is owned by the richest man in East Timor. You bet this man controls a sizable portion of the nation's GDP, land, and infrastructure, and even the government depends on him. That's the reason why you see so many young Third World countries nationalizing everything and confiscating private property - that's to eliminate competition in power. East Timor has not gone that route, but it's more likely that the government and the state institutions have to play by the local tycoons' rules than the other way around.
I agree with you that blaming this state of things on an "authoritarian government" is totally off the mark in this case, especially considering that Aero Dili is indeed a private company. However, one must also not forget the promiscuous partnership between the private and the public sector there, plus the fact that Aero Dili is still acting as an instrument of a state policy, even if privately owned, and that the East Timor government is obviously turning a big blind eye to what the company is doing, because it's in their MUTUAL interest that it does so. Don't forget that.
Stop throwing these sort of words at people you don't like. It's like calling someone gay or a commie just because you don't like them.
But it's not the place to be retaliating, the world if full of influencers, good ridings to them.
As you are a German citizen (I think) could you contact your EU MP and tell them about your data breach?
He is.
10 plus years in the industry. I have never seen such a display of pettiness, unprofessionalism and plain criminality from an airline. This is serious!!
You should also report this incident to US NTSB.
Why? Josh is German and Aero Dili doesn't fly to the US and wil probably not fly there in the next 20 years. Also thei plane is not a US buildt plane.
@@hmsagbakken It is a preventative measure. As long as US NTSB is notified by this type of complaint, it will be noted on their system that they received report that named staffs from Aero Dili has been threatening a passenger and homophobic in nature, that which not tolerable in any flying airlines in the United States. Regardless of the Citizenship of the complainant, air safety and such belligerent behavior from any staffs are not tolerated to any aircrafts flying the airspace of the United States. It could affect future transactions with Aero Dili’s when it comes to dealing with the Americans, and the future of those named staffs threatening Josh. The pilot could lose his FAA or Boeing or Certification that would deemed him unlicense to fly any aircrafts made by those two air manufacturers.
@@cynicaloldguy It is only to file a report to get to their record, and of course- legal actions or any such maybe would be out scenario for now since that Airline is out of their jurisdiction. To preempt is the intention/objective why you have to run for NTSB, once any of their names involved in these belligerent actions would come up to do any aviations functions that involved with the United States, then their names would pop up in their system signaling any actions or scrutiny. As someone that lives in the United States, from many experiences, any government reports received I.E. complaints, are properly recorded.
@@cynicaloldguy I agree. But I will still strongly suggest to send a report over this gross belligerence from staff coming from Aero Dili to US NTSB. For the purpose to be on their records. Play that loophole, since nothing from their policy or stated, “only US incidents involving American Citizens complaints are accepted”. That’s why I suggest NTSB- as it stands for National Transportation and Safety Board. Josh Cahill was a paying passenger, threatened his safety by the airlines staffs posted his personal records online. Regardless it did not happened in the United States or outside their jurisdiction, but a received complaint will be on their records. It can be reference in the future.
@@cynicaloldguy It has nothing to do with this drama understood. but as former government contractor by choice to bypass bureaucracy that also receives the same pay as GS-12 and will never have to do with the federal leadership and BS. Not revealing agency because of OpSec, and I will never pull that background to create leverage. Anyways, All complaints will be received and must be recorded. Not that hard to do, click and submit. That’s the objective, it will be a bonus if we are lucky if all of the sudden they’l take an action. Just put them on the record. It will be different if you file a complaint in a private entity (not federal) when all of those are not protected.
Oh poop, it's anguishing.
I'm thinking, also international aviation authorities should be informed as well. It is clear their ethics is completely out of this world and aviation in general can't simply tolerate such a hackery.
It's simply unbelievable! Thanks Josh for not being bought and giving us an honest insight. The whole Story is so crazy!
That's defamation, breach of privacy.
For the airline to post a picture of your passport; if they did not take a photo of it at check in, they must have obtained it elsewhere. Possible collusion with immigration/passport control, or indeed finding out which hotel you stayed in and obtaining it from there.
Hope the minister in Singapore will be awareand take action.
This is INSANE.Where do they have the permission to post your passport PUBLIC?
Also, report them to the credit card brands - Visa, MC, American Express. For the three major ones, there are express data protection measures in the contracts that all businesses sign and agree to do
Very typical behaviour, they cannot handle anyone critising them
I remember That airport guy-- Comical!🤣🤣 and being threatened by the pilot-- outrageous! Who of us out there has actually been threatened by the pilot having flown us🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Josh. I will never book with air dili for myself or my family.
Thanks Josh, I just sent an email to the Minister Chee Hong Tat. This airline is a disgrace and shouldn't be allowed to operate anywhere.
Had it been Sam Chui reviewing, it would have been the best airline in the world, they'd have wanted you to wait to meet the station manager for a personalised welcome, perfect food that really flushes you out in the morning, so proud to have you on board that they want to share a photo of a passport for proof you flew with them, then call you names after as a bit of friendly banter to show your really pally - in exhange for €50,000.
But this is Josh - Josh just wants a nice flight, nice crew, nice meal, nice loo....... Keep fighting the legal front with them, surely you can sue for the data protection breach?
Sam’s accounts would be very interesting on how much revenue he makes from influencing activities via sponsorships and the alike.
Lol. The samchui comment made my day
Lol. The samchui comment made my day
I don’t know Sam so not sure if your allegations are true. But fact is they all make a lot of money with the videos and have sponsors. And that is not bad.
unless you have proof this man is taking payola this allegation is defamitory
It seems that they have deleted the malicious content on their socials and that pilot is nowhere to be found on Facebook but that goes to show how unprofessional they are when it comes to the paying customer.
At least the airline didn’t mention your demand for a bronze statue, monument and national holiday.
Absolutely insane Josh. Please keep us up to speed with what is happening
guys i myself live in Singapore and hearing this i am scared we need to make this stop
me too. I live in Singapore and I would never condone this.
@@MrHnd1988 yes
I already sent an email
Is it possible to contact the media in Singapore and spread the news faster?
Just share this youtube over social media and tag the media.
This is pretty shocking behaviour from any type of company.
The fact that they posted your passport publicly without your permission is disgusting
What a mess that aero dili😮
Giving out personal data of an EU national is most likely against GDPR as companies handling EU national information has to follow GDPR as well, so that's something (I think)
This! EU nationals are highly protected from data breaches particularly because of this.
Not really in this case. The GPDR ends at the border of the EU unless it involves a flight into/outoff the EU. In this case, Air Dili does not fly even close to the EU so is not bound to the GPDR. I am not familiar with laws of Timor Leste, Indonesia or other countries related to said flight, but I guess there are laws covering it. The passport is property of the home country, but if that route is taken, it is for the embassy in question to do something. The only other viable way is to file a local lawsuit against the airline.
@@TypicalDutchSaysHi The GDPR applies to all companies handling EU citizen information
@@altsubaltsu, enforcing it would be a different story, though, as no EU institution has jurisdiction over East Timor or over a company from there that doesn't do business in the EU. However, it's very likely that Aero Dili has one or more accounts in European banks, if for no other reason to process payments by EU citizens and residents and to pay suppliers like Airbus and its subcontractors. I don't know if GDPR legislation allows any action on such bank accounts, but if it does (say, to seize the payment of a fine), then Aero Dili could be in trouble.
Not true , GDPR means bullshit outside EU. We overestimate the power and reach of EU. Every country trashes EU laws outside EU and there's nothing we can do
My jaw is still dropped!! WOW!!
Hope you have taken legal action against that airline....even though it will be a hassle to pursue this action. Thank you for sharing as I'm sure other airlines would likely be doing the same thing, but haven't been revealed.
Well done Josh. Whenever l’m considering a flight you are my first call to check the airline.
Josh. You should expose them to Channel News Asia in Singapore. Or any other news broadcasting channels. This is ridiculous.
Yes try get interviews etc its a very concerning story absolutely unheard of its might be a world first by an airline to intentionally dox a passenger
Channel News Asia is a great channel, they will probably listen to him
Singaporean government is in bed with the Timor leste government and I can bet nothing will happen
You should sue them to the ground! This absolutely unacceptable!
This is without a doubt an embarrassment to the airline and its country! Thank God Josh made a video for the entire world to see their shady operation! Many will see this video and hopefully stay far away from this airline! Thank You Josh!
The question now is how low are they willing to go. This is evident that they do not care about your information nor your safety of the patrons
It is outrageous and criminal behavior to reveal someone's passport. I think they are angry there because Josh treated the airport manager like a little child.
That pilot must have received so much heat, he deactivated his account 🤣🤣
😅😅 but he had such a big mouth 😂
Facebook would've suspended his account as soon as it was reported. Posting that kind of information goes against Meta's ToS.
@@JoshCahill Hahaha!😂 He must be regretting it right now! 😅😅
@@amy_c_26 Both him and the company need to get taught a lesson
@@JoshCahill he'll go from flying planes to driving uber
😱 OMG!! This is nothing short of gross negligence! This airline needs to be shut down ASAP!! I’m so sorry this happened to you Josh. We appreciate you letting us know about what happened. This is why we subscribe to you. I’ll definitely send an email.
Wow that's such a shame. I can't believe an airline would do that. Sue them.
I'll grab popcorn, sit back, relax, and enjoy watching this video
Didn’t think things could get worse than what you experienced on board and at check in! Shocking behaviour!
This is very unprofessional behaviour needs to be addressed and be accountable
I'm glad there are good guys like you out there still. Keep up the good fight 💪🏻
Aero Dili deleted their last Facebook Post after the comment section was full of posts related to your Video 😅 They try everything they can to hide these Story 😂
You are amazing Josh!!! Your integrity and bravery is unmatched. Thank - you for all that you do. Best travel vids on TH-cam !!!!
Sue the airline they should be held accountable
Just wow, I can’t even explain the thoughts going through my mind. How incredibly ignorant of the airline to believe that they can get away with this. I hope they suffer the full extent of the law. Please ensure any lawyers follow through on messaging Josh, they deserve to know that their actions come with consequences.
Josh, I’ve done as you’ve asked and left an email for the Singapore government as well as left a bad review. And I will continue to do so daily until this is resolved. I’m so incredibly sorry your privacy was compromised in this way. Please know we are always with you and will fight to the end to make airlines like this go out of business due to their lack of willingness to see a possibility to make a right choice and learn from the review.
You’ve got this Josh 💪 💪
Have you considered writing to the East Timorese President, Mr José Ramos-Horta? He is a good man and probably completely unaware of how badly the post holders at Aero Dili are making East Timor look.
As a pilot myself, that First Officer should be banned from all aviation activity. As is the case quite often in these small, poor nations, a tiny minority have vastly more money and influence than the rest. Their sometimes undeserving and incompetent offspring get the best jobs by corrupt means.
Seems that Aero Dili has taken the cowardly way out and restricted people from posting on their FB page.
WOW! This is really terrible. I am so sorry that this has happened to you. Yes, I saw the video where you gave them a review. It should have been used by the airline to improve their service. Keep flying!
What a disgraceful airline . Heads up on an airline to AVOID at all costs .
Omg Josh. I too can't believe it. Sounds so strange. Happy to help anyway I can 😮
Man we love you, Josh I would keep reposting this sharing it and sharing it and sharing it!!!! an airline that won’t last they will get their karma don’t worry💯💯
That's totally unacceptable behaviour. Email sent.
Unbelievable!!!
Josh, we all stay on your side! Thank you for your great work what you do for us!
Great job mate. These things certainly needs to be addressed.
Josh, as always you do so much for the community. Keep it up mate. I hope this airline gets what it deserves.
Sam Chui: Hold my beer, did you say $50k?
KNN this airline do this then want fly to SG? Cannot liddat lah, must inform govt to stop them
Shocking , what a disgrace, Thank you for highlighting this Josh !!
IATA needs to remove them as a member. What a gross violation!
They are not listed as an IATA member
It’s my understanding there not part of it
Just wow. Their plan to besmirch you is backfiring spectacularly.
You have to pursue an appropriate course of action.
This is shocking. Well done Josh for trying to do something to keep future passengers safe
The fact that all this has happened makes Qatar Airways and Air Peace look good. This in itself an achievement.
I would rather fly Air Peace and have all the conflict out there around every corner than an airline that posts my personal information for everyone to see.
How is posting a passport online acceptable, you could file a lawsuit against this my friend
But he said it isn’t illegal in that country.
Good video Josh. Will be interesting to follow this case.
as a singaporean and frequent flyer ,I have never seen something as insane as this
Hi Josh have you heard from Aero Dili since posting the video or any former employees of the company?
Nope not a word.
I don't think anyone in Dili is worried about data protection, corruption in certain countries is a phd level.....enjoy the videos, keep going....
Complete shocked….. I would be seething Josh…you have kept your composure very well….a true professional a word they don’t seem to understand… stay safe well and happy
I did my part and am damn proud of it. God bless you Josh. You are right on!
