- BUSINESS CLASS ON NORTH KOREA 1 STAR AIRLINE
My last day in North Korea! Had such an amazing experience! I got the train into the country and I’m flying out of the country on North Korea’s only airline and it’s also the worlds only 1 star airline called Air Koryo! I’ve got a business class seat so I was interested to see what it would be like! With Air Koryo there is no first class, only business class and economy as the flight is only 2 hours back to Beijing! Hope you enjoy!

#NorthKorea #BusinessClass
My airport is amazing, while Western airports have long check in and security lines we make the process swift and easy for travelers so they can get on their flight without a problem. Thank you for visiting my Hermit Kingdom. It’s been a pleasure
Simon: what a guy
How do you feel that he didn't like your airlines hamburgers :O
Jody Rhodes lol
LMAOO
Cheers Big Kim
Don't ask people what they think about North Korea, when they are still in North Korea.
This country is fucked up
It's not so dangerous. You won't be punished unless you accused Kim. Stop accepting propagandas.
@@user-dn2dc9px4y North Korea is a fucked up dictatorship. Defending North Korea is like defending Nazi Germany.
Too young to be old ikr some ppl r so dum
Silence Roovland same with the Chinese Communist Party of the People's Republic of China.
I can't believe you got away with filming that much inside an airport in NK
Probably because he is young
Peselo doubt he’s a big spastic
He is after all Kim's doppelganger.
He probably got permission?
He should be thankful got to leave NK while still alive with his loudmouth
Dr Derplington I agree you have a point
🇬🇧
e@@drderplington well yeah but he's part of the problem
@@ladder3257 what problem
@@drderplington America need to go over there and introduce them to freedom
"Why can't i film anything?!" Cause it's North Korea mate. That's why😂
Pretty sure ur not allowed to use phone cameras to film any part of the country
ChilliPeppers you can but only for the ‘good parts’ of the country
He should just respected the rules and culture of the place. Each country has its own rules and as a visitor we must atleast respect it.
@@likeemuch tell that to muslim migrants or chinese tourists..................
@@asuspicioustype12classfrig80 bro north korea is a living shithole, where is the good part of n korea?
You are damn lucky you weren't detained for mocking North Korea's airline.
He probably had the footage hidden
I think it’s because he’s a commie sympathizer.
Would’ve been executed
She didn't think her airline is funny, rated one star until your friend said yours is worse.😎😎😎
Owen Kinnan Ya he was
I’m from Ireland and we use Ryanair all the time. This flight is definitely better than any Ryanair flight I’ve taken. There’s no lounge like that at the airport, you have to pay for a bottle of water if you want water, the seats look much more luxurious. The airport was completely empty with full attention.
Ryanair is better 🤦♂️
I couldn’t care about the plane, as long as it takes me A to B… I’m happy enough. Would never pay extra for a fancy seat 10x the price of economy.
@@dillydally7327 but rayanair doesn't let ypu bring a ton of luggage which is problematico for a person like me 🤨
@@blahajenthusiast101 extra bag for 8 euro...
@@dillydally7327 for a 2 hour flight, sure. But try 12 hours in something like Ryanair, which non-low cost airlines are more and more trying to imitate. Business isnt 10x, more like 3x-4x. Best economy I have experienced was Russian Aeroflot, which I guess I wont be taking in the near fututre :D
"have u flown with air koryo before?" "you've never flown with them" *face palm*
she probably isn't an air stewardess
I bet 97% of North Korean people never experienced being in an aeroplane before, let alone having a proper flight
They probably didn't offer him food because he kept ignoring their requests for him not to film.....
Maybe....
But then again flight attendants aren't supposed to do shit like that, still shitty customer service
But if it's bc of him filming, why didn't he notice that his neighbouring passengers have food (if any)
@@euniceong595 still it was not allowed. they may have been scolded for serving him, knowing north korea
Maybe because he messed up.....none of them got food...🤷🏽♀️
This guy with his friends in the van: THIS PLANE MUST BE AS BAD AS DETENTION CAMP
North Korean girl: 🙃
*repeatedly takes camera out, probably getting the worker in trouble with her boss as a result*
WhY didn’t I gET a HamBurGEr
Yeah that was so awkward to watch. I felt bad for her.
such disrespect. might as well be mocking an innocent prisoner
Just by visiting North Korea and going on a propaganda tour in the only city that’s kept together is disrespect. This guy takes it a WHOLE step further.
that part was so cringe
Can’t believe he asked if she’d been on the airline before 💀💀💀 they’re literally not allowed to leave the country
They go to China. In the first video where he is taking the train from China to N kOrea there are lots of north koreans in china waiting to take that train
It is my understanding that they can go to China and Russia (even some other countries) if they have a work permit from the government.
they are also regional flights
@@saadtoutcourt367 People don't realize the West pushes our own propaganda just like North Korea pushes propaganda... LMFAOOO people are just so lost in the "my government can't be bad" bs.
the way he says 감사함니다 has me on the floor every single time
srsly it was the most tourist thing ever and I couldn't stop cringing
This loudmouth is lucky he didn't get Otto Warmbiered.
AMEN!!! He should have with his stupidity!!!!
Btw for you who don’t know he was a dude trapped in North Korea basically

@@seadngr kayanya kaga deh
@@dddf27 NK airport cuma melayani 4 flights, dan yeah I am sure about that. If you ever go to SoeHat Airport, you'll realize it
1 plane landing and taking off every minute
I believe the reason they were so hard against camera use from the plane is that there is a major ICBM installation on the southwest end of the airport. Its seen easy enough on google earth, but a relatively close up, oblique shot they don't want. The normal flight path Air Koryo takes to Beijing is near other sensitive sites as well- albeit at altitude.
Hey Simon I wouldn't care if the airline was zero star...as long as the engines are 5 star that's all what matters.
Yeah😂😂😂
It's a soviet aircraft, I wouldn't count on that 😅
Like to see Simon Collab with bald and bankrupt and collin abroadcast
Streetboyz yes!!!! bald and bankrupt would be class
Omg yes that would be amazing! Balds almost hit 1m subs too!
Also Harald Baldr check his channel out!
Bald in Pyongyang would be look at this brand new Soviet building. Look at these young soviet koreans, I'm now going to leave some flowers on the soviet korean leader monument. Check out this modern SOVIET hotel.
I'd like to see a collab with Bald and bankrupt or harald baldr
Skytrax actually removed the one star rating. It's rated a 6/10 by the community, which is the more than what British Airways has
For what?

Oh
Skytrax is a joke.

Simon: it is bizzare, an absolutely empty airport
All airports in 2020: ...yeah, bizzare
its 2022 the airports are packed to the brim
@@Nxtn its not. video was posted 3 years ago
@@FyterDget So December 2019 then.
I was once flying out of Saudi out of a huge airport very modern, but with no stores, n restaurants, nothing but a lounge, and a single flight going out. This was during times of Middle Eastern conflict. Our flight just came out of Oman, landed, and was back in the air in less than 15 minutes. Weird vibe.
What’s the point of this comment.. it’s not funny neither informative
@Simon Wilson Those boxes they offered you were actually food. It's not uncommon in Asian Airlines to pack meals in paper boxes.
Great conclusion video, thanks for showing us North Korea!
“I didn’t have any expectations going into this and it definitely exceeded this” yeah usually any number above zero beats zero
maybe he just enjoyed it? :)
“This is definitely the quiest airport I have been in my life”
Covid 19: 😏 wait for it
It’s good to see the employees actually caring for the passengers
“Hey you’re coming with me right?..... no no no no.... “ yah good job bro way to get your tour guide sent to a work camp lol
@@Israelball do u not understand sarcasm
How's your departure from NK looking like as same a s departure from UK during Covid-19?
Dayton Sprague true, sorry stupid me did not understand sarcasm enough, sorry
Dayton Sprague thank you for explaining, שלום from Israel
How's that going to get him into a work camp
Most aggressive lift button pusher out there, watch all the vids you can't unsee it 😂😂
My Mrs always points that out 😂😂
I raise you with Casey Neistat
4:14 ‘now pyongyang is achieving a rapid development of science and technology’ lMAO 😂
I am 10000000000% sure he was one of the popular kids in school
He is soooooooooooo clueless about aviation and everything as well
Such a tourist
Probably because he is a tourist
this whole trip summarised: "there's no one here"
I felt really bad for the tourist guide. You were mocking the airlines and the detention camps, while she was there looking very uncomfortable.
He's a total jackass, i couldn't get past 1 or 2 minutes in. So rude omfg. If you hate north korea don't go there. I feel so bad for the tour guide. It's not her fault she's born there and you're laughing your ass off at her. Somebody should go to this guy's house and laugh at him for being ugly and all the problems with whatever country he's from. I don't support North Korea so i don't go there. Have some common decency my man.
👍👍👍
“Your coming right?!? Your not coming?!?” Me: Are you trying to get that man killed?!?! 😂😂😂
they wouldnt kill him for that, thats just western media brainwashing you
that plane looked wwwwaaayyy too modern to be part of North Korea's fleet
It's from the 80's
Then you know nothing about North Korea other than what their enemies tell you
It's a Russian Tupolev Tu-204, developed in 1989, likely purchased through a shell company.
Dennis Rodman probably sat in that same seat
🤣🤣🤣🤣 with the same person next to him 🤣🤣🤣🤣
When Simon asks the North Korean guide if she’s flown with the airline before... yikes
It's a reasonable question. Maybe there are one or two domestic flights.
It's emberassing to ask.. poor girl
@@567Productions they're not allowed to leave the country 😂
suoisgaming obviously you’re naive like Simon, are you like 10 yr old? They put the shine presentation on for foreigners, try visiting when you grow up.
CryptoJack bruh it’s allowed, not aloud. Freaking kids.
Simon Wilson is reported adapting well to life in a North Korean reeducation camp where he earned tenancy with this video clip. The Great Dear Maximum Leader was in a rare good mood on sentencing day, so we're expecting Simon will regain his freedom no later than 2074, all else being equal.
Stopped watching at the point he was mocking the airline with his NK guide sitting right there. What a jerk.
Well it's his opinion, and plus he is right
@@nooriscool No doubt he's right---but there's a time and a place to share your opinion.
@@dnwitte Truee

Respect is common sense
So you mean to tell me that you can buy a $7 ticket on Ryan Air and North Koreas airline is worse
Derek White I dunno Ryanair is pretty bad 😂
@@Tesco_ nah ryanair is really good for what you pay
@@Tesco_ Why? It's one of the safest and most punctual airlines in the world
Bitrey it was a joke
@@Bitrey people only think ryanair is bad because everyone says that, but it aint
"How is it compared to Ryanair?"
"Probably better !!" 😂😂
Yes,, RYANair is the worst airplane in the world rather than air koryo
@@fatimahraja1047 alright fatimah
@@fatimahraja1047 I've had no problems with Ryan Air myself
he said it bc he was in north korea
noooo ryanair is actually a lil good
Thank you so much Simon for an enlightening set of videos , i'm glad you made it back and like i said before if i catch you in Thailand its all on me. Cheers.
i went to korea 4years ago..and i took air koryo.. but i dont see any reason why they are being rated with 1star.. ive been in many flights flying with different airlines but i dont see the difference between air koryo and other airlines that i took.. i received good service from air koryo.. i appreciate their staf trying their best to understand and speak english jsut to communicate with me..
Same here. They were fine in 2013 when I flew. Nice modern plane, comfortable seats. The food and entertainment were poor, but they don't deserve 1 star.
That Coke can is probably the only American thing they ever had.
Um...
Hell no
Nope they had a american that stole a flag but then they hurt the person and americans or banned from North Korea so not the only thing
American things are imported on the black market all the time but they take the labels off.
Nah, that Coke was made in China.
I doubt it’s even legit coke. Prolly some knockoff.
Can I have a Pepsi and a coffee?
*gets coca cola*
Sam Quinn looooool
Could you sub to me please I’ve subbed to you
Because in the uk you ever say coke you get Pepsi like 70% of the time so maybe that’s why lol
The coffee comes later.....
Callum Harknett he asks for a Pepsi AND a coffee and then gets coke instead of Pepsi, that’s the point 🤦🏻♂️
@@Sam-sn7ug oh......not funny
That guy at 1:06 is super chill. Love the dude
The shine on that airport floor! Great video dude 🤙 love from Leicester
This guy is such a stereotype white dude, in a bad way, when visiting a foreign country
How?

Wow how did that ever happen? And why lol
@@bijani2855 south not north
I had a strikingly similar experience in first class on a US airline a few years back. VIP treatment until on the plane, then small seats, no food, cramped, etc., but at least they offered me orange juice. This can’t be the worst airline.
US airlines are complete disgraces to aviation
North Korean airlines seems better than any US airline
Was that delta airlines
@@user-wj6wk6db6h Must be jet blue
@@user-wj6wk6db6h Delta international business class these days is nicer than most European airlines. It’s just domestic US flights that don’t think they need to offer top quality anymore despite top prices
All I can say mate is I’m happy I subscribed and I’m glad I accidentally watched ur clip. Amazing also how you colab with the hack also great. Keep them coming.

This video was a little distasteful. What a shame.

How?

Amazing trip you had proper jealous seeing you do this one keep it up 👍
great vid, thanks!
Can't get enough of your travel videos! I know others love the money challenges, but you are one of my top favorites for travel videos.
The ketchup was a smooth hint "we are watching you" :D
They know your every behavior.
Great vid! Glad you made out safe! 😁👍
the lady offered him like 5 different freakin boxes and he said he didnt get offered any food wth
The boxes were to be bought. The food offered in the plane is not the same at all, it's "free" because in some ways ypu pay for it when you buy your plane ticket. So he had the right not to buy the boxes and to get food and drinks ! Even more because he was in a business class (so paid more) !
@@TheLemoncupcake I understand your point, but how do you know that the food wasn't inside? It is N. Korea after all, and they do stuff kinda weirdly
@@joon3900 because it is obvious that it is souvenir, to be buy. No airplanes, even less the North Korean, put the free food in such packages ^^ ! Some airplanes offer you to buy perfumes or else during the flight and that is what it is here.

Awesome video. Thanks brother.
The guide was beautiful
First I loveee your videos man they make my day I was literally just revising so long and finally u uploaded I can take a break for a bit❤️❤️
Love the videos man, really intriguing to get an inside view into something that isn't as public as other countries. Keep up the good work!
"Why can't you film anything" Simon, I love your videos, but DO NOT GO TO THESE PLACES WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT YOU'RE IN FOR
With that attitude I can’t wait to see your video about your time in a labor camp.
Simon, absolutely loved this series as always! Very fascinating insight into a mysterious part of the world. Will have to go some time. I think have watched every single one of your videos and find your stuff genuinely inspiring. Would be absolutely delighted to get some skint merch if that was cool. Will always keep watching, best of luck on your travels! Adrian
This has been one of the coolest series I've seen, up there with the 7 wonders; absolutely adore these, keep up the great work Simon!

Amazing videos ! Very interesting take on NK
Would love to try. Thinking about it. What an experience
Dude I think they tried to give you a box of food on the flight and you turned it down lol
Yeah, i thought the same thing. It looked like some sort of bento-box or something similar to that.
or they might be selling him stuff I think.
And a sandwich before that
South Korean here, I'm not sure what was the first gold box was, but that red box is red ginseng, and they tried to sell that to him.
@@eagles52tk thank you for letting us know!
You didn't get offered any food when you can clearly see her offering you a sandwich??!!
It’s like he forgot he filmed that part. She offered him 2 different boxes lol

That was in flight duty free. Needless souvenirs from NK. Probably cigarettes or something like that.

I have loved this series. Such an odd but interesting place by the looks of it. I expected them to be so repressed so seeing them out having fun at a water park was eye opening.
