Btw this video shows both airline excellent experience. It is an Open question which one do you like better. I do understand the SAA flight is a short haul and Ethiopian is a longer haul so it may be unfair to compare directly. But i hope you enjoy my travel experience. I used Avianca Lifemiles to redeem the ticket to fly on these Star Alliance carriers from Africa to Dubai for just 35,000 miles. If you don't have the miles, simply sign up, buy during promotion and the Business Class ticket cost less than $500!
Sam Chui Thanks for this honest Report! I really like you telling us your real opinion even if it’s negative. Makes your videos much more realistic! Keep up the good work!
Hi Sam, I've flown Ethiopian a number of times. The airline is excellent but the transfer in Addis is a disaster, it's a real shame because a lot of travellers must be put off by the experience. Most of the time I now fly from London to Johannesburg and transfer from there. The overall experience is better because you get a decent rest on the flight from London and the transfer experience at Johannesburg is much better. My other choice is Nairobi with is somewhere better Addis and Johannesburg on the transfer satisfaction level. Great videos!
Yes, they are beautiful indeed. But its much more than just a pretty face, extra leg room, and warm face towels in Biz Class. Its an airlines "team" performance in a crisis that makes the real difference between life and warm croissants. And the skilled pilot in 96 did his best with that water landing in the ocean off of the Comoros islands. He can take a bow.
I am a South African student , currently studying in India. I tell you ,when I first came to India I took Emirates economy but during my summer vacation I took Ethiopian economy the service is almost the same as Emirates and will be better I'm certain at a lower price.. The only problem I had was the delaying in departure and arrival of the flight , the airport itself needs immediate revamp and efficient management team . Hopefully by summer vacation it'll be popping ready... Eithopian all the way... Truth be told. Amen
I am an Ethiopian and I am well pleased by your remarks, and ofcource their will be some improuvments in the near future conernimg the airport facilities. Overall the Ethiopian airline is the leading airline and at the moment it is helping also other african airlines to improuve theirs.
I flew it last month - I'm from Namibia. Ethipioan airport is untidy and the plane was so dirty. Love SAA and Air Nam. But I was willing to try Ethipioan the attendants were so rude on my first flight and it was not cheaper than SAA or Air Nam. Won't be flying it again.
Ethiopian ladies beauty is totally different than other african countries ! Especially their beautiful lively skin !!! They are naturally beautiful... humble friendly presentation...
I am from Ethiopia, But I truly suggest you on your next trip to Africa, give it a ride as many as African countries you can, then you will realize how beautiful are African ladies.
My Ethiopian brothers & sisters all the way..look at "em beautiful habesha queens with their traditional dresses...Love you yall Ethiopians..from Eritrea 🇪🇷💗🇪🇹
@@SuperBuckwheat11 Thank you ❤😍❤..I love how they're wearing our traditional habesha dress in the flight..I love the fact that the beer can has geez words on..#habeshaproud 😍❤
Thanks to your respect but that dresses not for all Ethiopian traditions. In Ethiopia so many traditions dresses, for example, Oromiya, Wollo, Afar , Somalia, are deferent from that airline dress.
As a South African, I can't deny that Ethiopian is far superior. Actually Ethiopian is better than a lot of airlines in the world. I'd put them in the top 10
Buddhist (Anhänger des Dalai Lama) she is telling you everything natural man. no plastic. its Ethiopia. take it or leave it, thats what she is telling to minds like yours. thats what we call confidence.
Brother, you're absolutely spot on. I love how accurate your findings are. I would have said the same thing. These two are the best airlines in Africa. Ethiopian is also the biggest in Africa. Besides the Addis airport which needs urgent attention, I think Ethiopian is actually better. The good thing is they both belong to the Star Alliance Network. You should consider incorporating a very short study of the loyalty programmes. It would really help.

Yep I think the problem might be temporary. The Chinese are rapidly building a new terminal at Bolé. But I have to agree that the current system is atrocious.
I'm a South African who's never been in an airplane . From this video it seems like Ethiopian Airline is the best but my people are unique . They're very lovely .

You have to Fly With Ethiopia airline b/c it's worth it new experience of people,they are humble,friendly,good cultural food,welcoming people it's all there my friend fly with Ethiopia airline
As me have travel from three different countries but Ethiopian Airlines is the best even the ladies working there most beautiful faces is there with a lots of smiles I love Ethiopian the best Airlines for me💕😘
I choose Ethiopian. The dining is way better. The plane staff are not to blame for the airport. The guy who helped you really seemed happy to help. I want to fly both, but my vote goes to Ethiopian.
They were not punctual in Johannesburg airport... Keep on making excuses for them. World class airlines like SAA don't accept excuses. They only deliver quality service.

I am so happy, to see that Ethiopian airlines is so successful. No doubt it is now the best full service carrier in the whole continent Africa. Don't forget , that just a couple of decades ago , this country still suffered the war and hungry. Amazing milestone. I love you Ethiopia! Greetings from Far East Asia
Minh Khai Dang Hi Minh Khai Dang I live in California and it’s has been along time since I left Addis Ababa and from your comments I realized you have been to Ethiopia probably more than one occasion and what were you doing there?
It's not true Ethiopia it's was great Whole the time only Media of the west and United States always the media liyn but I'm Eritrean 🇪🇷 we know Ethiopia never hungry
Yes, they cancel the flight and do not even bother to let you know. Same quality of service is provided by Ethiopian Holidays, no response to emails whatsoever. Never use them again.
I think that Ethiopian airlines is the better one. Apart from the congestion in Bole airport, Ethiopian airlines in an airline with great services and it is also one of the fastest growing airlines in Africa. It also got AFRICAS FIRST AIRBUS A350
Try flying on SAA a340 or a330. Long haul you will love it. Our friendly smiles will always welcome you on-board. Looking forward to seeing you on-board one of our flights at SAA again
I love Ethiopia and Addis Ababa is the venue for international conferences playing a very significant role in Africa.I will visit this country before i die,much love from Zambia.
Oh wow, I loved the interaction you had with the South African crew, that's what travel is all about. Ethiopian Airlines had bigger TV Screens though...
Better in what because SAA crew is friendlier? Ethiopian Airlines was late, that’s unprofessional.They were also not proactive in assisting Sam with his connecting flight, that's bad service. SAA is error free. From aircraft to lounge to airport. No chaos, no headache, no need for apologies.
Sam I think Ethiopian is better because of their more modern fleet. They have both A350 and B787 rather than South African which only have A330 and A340 for longhaul
All I know is back in 2000 I was just 7 years old flying Ethiopian airline for the first time . I remember being in complete awe at how beautiful all the air hostesses were, not to mention kind and very sweet! Haven’t forgot that almost 22 years later !!
Too bad you couldn't spend my time in Addis Ababa, I loved it there! Yes, Bole Airport is so busy, which is why they're building a second airport in Addis Ababa. It's a $2 Billion US dollar project!
Ethiopian is the best m, safest, and most profitable airlines in Africa. Hence, that's why the air port is over crowded because everyone wants to fly Ethiopian when visiting Africa. However, I agree with you. Ethiopian should invest in upgrading it's terminals to accommodate such demands. I believe they are building more terminals and a second air port.
The only correct adjective is perhaps most profitable. SAA has a superior safety track record and overall the best airline in Africa from an overall travel experience perspective.
king of king Rastafarians decorated plan with the lion of Judah flag of freedom and pride of Africa Ethiopian airline is pride of African Arline....To Me Ethiopian airline is equivalent to USA and emirates.....airplanes are new ,they own dream liner,pilots are best... ..They have got best female pilots too......Ethiopian airline is number one ..... Ethiopian airline is pride of African Arline....To Me Ethiopian airline is equivalent to USA and emirates..
South African used to be good and still dominate southern Africa region but Ethiopian has newer planes and many more connections. Ethiopian also has an advantage because of its strategic location between Middle East, Asia and Africa. But I agree Bole Airport is a mess and some passengers travelling on Ethiopian can also make your life very difficult (I am not fortunate enough to travel in Business)
Used to be good? That's not true. Its still ranked the best airline in Africa and has been for years. You're likely to see SAA on a tarmac in Europe, Americas & Asia than any other African airline.
K Ben i think South African is STILL good. I just think the airline needs to get rid of those gas Guzzling Airbus A340s (but they super comfortable compared to 787s) and buy A350s
thee realest Yes used to be good. Its long range aircraft are really old including the vintage A340 that comes to my city every day. The airline has no new aircraft on order because it has literally no money. Whereas Ethiopian has constantly been profitable, has many new aircraft like A350, 777, 787 Dreamliners in its fleet and many more on order. Ethiopian has the largest network in Africa and also serves many more international destinations than South African. Stop fooling yourself, SAA has just got 9 international destinations outside Africa including my city. Whether you like it or not, South Africa is a country on downslide and its only the South Africans and their government to blame.
rakgwadi moriti Yes I agree mate that A340s belong to history but the problem is corruption and mismanagement is rampant in almost every department of South Africa. SAA has been constantly making big losses and has no money. South Africa used to miles ahead of every African country but now its going backwards.
I remember flying with ethopia airlines when I was 11. My brother was 4 at that time. The crew loved him! At some point the flight attendant ducked. My brother *smacked* her butt. I never laughed so loud in my whole life. Honestly great airline with great food✌🏾
My African people please STOP. We should never compete especially through the eyes of a non-african. Love and support all of our advancements because to the rest of the world who laugh at us we are just competing for last place.
Not all competition is negative. We are comparing Airlines here, these are just businesses. As long as we don't perceive this as Ethiopian people/culture vs South African people/culture, then there is nothing unhealthy about this competition. In the same way Ethiopia and Kenya compete in distance running which makes both of them better at it, this is not a negative type of competition.
To be honest, Ethiopian airline is incomparable with other african airlines. It's just a wow unbelievable astonishing and highly productive airlines!!!!!!❤
Btw this video shows both airline excellent experience. It is an Open question which one do you like better. I do understand the SAA flight is a short haul and Ethiopian is a longer haul so it may be unfair to compare directly. But i hope you enjoy my travel experience.

Don't forget , that just a couple of decades ago , this country still suffered the war and hungry. Amazing milestone. I love you Ethiopia! Greetings from Far East Asia
Minh Khai Dang Hi Minh Khai Dang I live in California and it’s has been along time since I left Addis Ababa and from your comments I realized you have been to Ethiopia probably more than one occasion and what were you doing there?
We love u my beautiful 😘😘

wow looking comfratble Ethiopian airlines
Ethiopian airlines is the best in Africa and my personal preference. I’ll always fly Ethiopian 🇪🇹🇪🇹 ❤️❤️
I saw a hijack on Ethiopian and it was bad
Malang njie ok? But that’s not the airlines fault That can happen to any airline
@@saloumnjie5 what when ?? where ??
@@saloumnjie5 that's a big lie when it's happen? You are just big Geleous guy who's think by telling lie you country gonna benfite in airline
Rest in peace to all the departed souls who have lost lives in the Ethiopian airplane crash
Yes RIP but why remind us on this platform bruh
so sa is the safest
RIP to all 🙏🙏🏿❤🖤
ethiopian 302 was on march 2019 rip
@@alijaffarshah4542 Yeah why? especially after reading it is the safest airline in Africa.
Ethiopian airlines is the best...like if you agree
Yes, they cancel the flight and do not even bother to let you know. Same quality of service is provided by Ethiopian Holidays, no response to emails whatsoever. Never use them again.
Ahaha, ur habesha ay?
Yh I agree!!
Ethiopiangood
በትክክል ። Ethiopia airline. The best 😍😍😍😍
Ethiopian women definitely have a unique look from other African women. Some very pretty women from there
Brian Crawford thank u 😉
They are mixed so that's the difference
@@sebleo11 we arent mixed.
sebleo11 false
@ANTISCAM POLICE they have more arabian dna than many other African ethnicities. "Tribes" is not a prefered word to use btw :-)
I think that Ethiopian airlines is the better one. Apart from the congestion in Bole airport, Ethiopian airlines in an airline with great services and it is also one of the fastest growing airlines in Africa. It also got AFRICAS FIRST AIRBUS A350
Ethipia airlines won to me.
I agree
Fake 🤥
I love that airhostess' jolity and fun spirit in SAA. That was awesome 😂👍😄
Excellent video Sam!! Thanks for showcasing some of our African airlines.
I haven't flown SAA for sometime now and l agree, Ethiopian has one of the best and newest aircraft in the world and their service is excellent.
@@FaraiKowo We are glad our african, hopefully ethiopia improves the situation on the ground
Try flying on SAA a340 or a330. Long haul you will love it. Our friendly smiles will always welcome you on-board. Looking forward to seeing you on-board one of our flights at SAA again
“Ethiopia is the best country and Ethiopian airline is the best airline.” You tell him sis ❤️❤️love you hagere nurilign
I can already hear that Ethiopian soundtrack....😍😍😍😍 From Zimbabwe.... love both but Ethiopian leads
I love Ethiopia and Addis Ababa is the venue for international conferences playing a very significant role in Africa.I will visit this country before i die,much love from Zambia.
both of them are the best Airline God bless you my Africa!
Oh wow, I loved the interaction you had with the South African crew, that's what travel is all about. Ethiopian Airlines had bigger TV Screens though...
I think Ethiopian airline is better than South African. Crew is very fun. Always happy. hahaha
Yeah
agree
Yawn
Better in what because SAA crew is friendlier? Ethiopian Airlines was late, that’s unprofessional.They were also not proactive in assisting Sam with his connecting flight, that's bad service. SAA is error free. From aircraft to lounge to airport. No chaos, no headache, no need for apologies.
I agree with you.Ethiopian airline is on point!!!
Much love for s African brothers from Ethiopia
Thank you 💕😊
I really enjoy ur video 👌Ethiopian airlines always the best 😍God bless my beloved country mum ETHIOPIA💚💛❤
Awwwww I loved those SA airways flight attendants
I really think Ethiopian is the winer who loves to fly give a like and coment
Sam I think Ethiopian is better because of their more modern fleet. They have both A350 and B787 rather than South African which only have A330 and A340 for longhaul
only?
Ethiopian also has B777s, which are superior to the A340s.
All I know is back in 2000 I was just 7 years old flying Ethiopian airline for the first time . I remember being in complete awe at how beautiful all the air hostesses were, not to mention kind and very sweet! Haven’t forgot that almost 22 years later !!
Too bad you couldn't spend my time in Addis Ababa, I loved it there! Yes, Bole Airport is so busy, which is why they're building a second airport in Addis Ababa. It's a $2 Billion US dollar project!
No they're building $5 billion huge airports in debre zeyt 30km out of addis ababa
3:05 - Shona (?) is such a beautiful-sounding language, so mellow on the ears! And what a lovely crew on SAA!
Am Shona that's not shona it's Tsonga
Both are good but Ethiopian Airline is better
💯 % 👌
You must be jocking right
Some One dont think you did something
I think Ethiopian Airlines
My goodness.... the female flight attendants at Ethiopian Arlines are gorgeous🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️
I was really happy when i boarded Ethiopian Airlines, twice, 🤞🏻😘 and the staff was so pretty and nice
Ethiopian is the best m, safest, and most profitable airlines in Africa. Hence, that's why the air port is over crowded because everyone wants to fly Ethiopian when visiting Africa. However, I agree with you. Ethiopian should invest in upgrading it's terminals to accommodate such demands. I believe they are building more terminals and a second air port.
agree
The only correct adjective is perhaps most profitable. SAA has a superior safety track record and overall the best airline in Africa from an overall travel experience perspective.
it just trashed this Month
Lots of commentators are in favor of Ethiopian, so I will vote for Eth.
Ethiopian Airline best and beautiful people I love my ethiopian and SAA beautiful women ❤ one love African ❤
Senait Agidew you're beautiful girl yourself....I'm from South Africa

Ethiopian airline is pride of African Arline....To Me Ethiopian airline is equivalent to USA and emirates.....airplanes are new ,they own dream liner,pilots are best...
..They have got best female pilots too......Ethiopian airline is number one .....
Ethiopian airline is pride of African Arline....To Me Ethiopian airline is equivalent to USA and emirates..
Yes sir 💪💪
Great video! The cabin crew on South African Airways seemed brilliant!
I flew with the Ethiopian airlines to Ghana and it was amazing, beautiful stewardesses! Wanna fly with the South Africa airlines so bad😍
You are fake old girl 🤣
South African used to be good and still dominate southern Africa region but Ethiopian has newer planes and many more connections. Ethiopian also has an advantage because of its strategic location between Middle East, Asia and Africa. But I agree Bole Airport is a mess and some passengers travelling on Ethiopian can also make your life very difficult (I am not fortunate enough to travel in Business)
Used to be good? That's not true. Its still ranked the best airline in Africa and has been for years. You're likely to see SAA on a tarmac in Europe, Americas & Asia than any other African airline.
K Ben i think South African is STILL good. I just think the airline needs to get rid of those gas Guzzling Airbus A340s (but they super comfortable compared to 787s) and buy A350s
thee realest Yes used to be good. Its long range aircraft are really old including the vintage A340 that comes to my city every day. The airline has no new aircraft on order because it has literally no money. Whereas Ethiopian has constantly been profitable, has many new aircraft like A350, 777, 787 Dreamliners in its fleet and many more on order. Ethiopian has the largest network in Africa and also serves many more international destinations than South African. Stop fooling yourself, SAA has just got 9 international destinations outside Africa including my city. Whether you like it or not, South Africa is a country on downslide and its only the South Africans and their government to blame.
rakgwadi moriti Yes I agree mate that A340s belong to history but the problem is corruption and mismanagement is rampant in almost every department of South Africa. SAA has been constantly making big losses and has no money. South Africa used to miles ahead of every African country but now its going backwards.
thee realest nope, actually ethiopian airlines is higher ranked than south african airlines.
The lady who offered him champagne had a beautiful dress 😍 beautiful lady as well
Yes, that's our traditional dress as well.
Tks for yr beautiful comment 😊
Thanks for the video. I've never take Ethiopian airlines, but now think will give them a try. I always take south African airlines.
I've only used Ethiopian Airlines, so Ethiopian Airlines gets my vote!
Selam
The best airline & butiful lady ethiopa
I'm African and I only fly African airlines.
Who’s watching still in 2019? Off course Ethiopian Airline is the Best!!

Just because you are Ethiopian, it does not mean your being bias.
I remember flying with ethopia airlines when I was 11. My brother was 4 at that time. The crew loved him!
At some point the flight attendant ducked. My brother *smacked* her butt. I never laughed so loud in my whole life. Honestly great airline with great food✌🏾
That Ethiopian attendant is beautiful 🤩

because? of course i know - caucasian features...
darelet if you want caucasian features just go look for a Caucasian,
Liking an ethiopian is a different cause
Didn I say so!?
South African pilots are among the best.
My African people please STOP. We should never compete especially through the eyes of a non-african.
Love and support all of our advancements because to the rest of the world who laugh at us we are just competing for last place.
Seeing I agree with u 100%!
AMEN!
Seeing Competition is how you foster growth.
@ seeing you said the best comment on TH-cam FACTS!!!!!!!!!!
Not all competition is negative. We are comparing Airlines here, these are just businesses. As long as we don't perceive this as Ethiopian people/culture vs South African people/culture, then there is nothing unhealthy about this competition. In the same way Ethiopia and Kenya compete in distance running which makes both of them better at it, this is not a negative type of competition.
To be honest, Ethiopian airline is incomparable with other african airlines. It's just a wow unbelievable astonishing and highly productive airlines!!!!!!❤
Great content, creatively delivered. I love it! Keep up the great work Sam.
