1 & 2, thanks for that info...4, awesome response...6, I usually order kosher ( I'm Christian), yes you get a better and a fresher meal....11, the one question I had. Great video

Google maps didn't work for me on a recent flight in Europe

Are you from Peru 🇵🇪?

Ive been watching alot of flight videos lately and noticed how virtually no flat earthers comment on the videos...

@@ceciliateo9939 He just proved flat earth with this flight. There is no "great circles" when flying a plane. They all fly as straight from point A to point B as possible, unless there's some disturbance ahead or no-fly zones.

Ikr!

Nature is beautiful

I keep The window shades open but my parents tell me to close iT.

@@Nate-gl8qt Just open it again when they're not looking.

Dr. Renegade XD noice tips.

Well I got the other impression from flying. Now it feels that our planet is pretty small. Flying all over it and around it is now pretty common and it's quite fast considering how long it took to travel anywhere in previous centuries. I feel like our planet shrinks as we're moving faster and faster :) Everything is relative as Einstein showed us :D I guess whole other dimension is to be in space or on the orbit around Earth. For example in the ISS it only takes 90 minutes to circle our planet. You're getting entirely different perspective of life or mankind. Every single story that ever happened, every single person who ever lived, all races, wars, empires, everything happened on that "small" ball underneath you. And seeing Earth from the Moon, that just had to be surreal.

Well as you're flying, imagine if you had to walk all that distance, then it'll seem large. Going faster doesn't make it seem smaller to me.

Quite opposite for me actually. I felt the planet was much smaller than I previously had a feel for when I went on a first really long flight.

Jack White you should search on KZfaq for 'Concorde around the world'. This was a special charter commission flight on a BA Concorde, that took place just before it retired, where Concorde takes off from NYC, then flies east west around the Equator route (and getting very special permission from the Canadian government allowing it to fly over mostly uninhabited parts of Canada to land on the west coast in record time (something like 3 hrs 50m) - right back to NYC in just the most ridiculous time, that it truly did make the planet feel very small indeed. The route was, New York City to Vancouver, Vancouver to Hawaii, Hawaii to Fiji, Fiji to Tahiti, Tahiti to Australia, Australia to Singapore, Singapore to the Philippines, the Philippines to East India, East India to north west Africa, and then it got special permission to fly up through the Red Sea and along the Mediterranean at supersonic speed to land in Venice, and then got special permission to fly supersonic around the southern tip of Spain and on to New York. The total flying time was something like 32hrs and 56 minutes, to fly the entire circumference of the globe. Obviously it wasn't a straight line. It could never be, because Concorde only had a range of just under 4000 miles, so obviously it had to follow a carefully planned route. But to make it exciting and interesting for the charter passengers onboard (who had paid a fortune for the trip), the route took in exciting tourist destination cities & locations so that the passengers could stop off for a few days in each location for a tour and some five-star comforts and soak up the culture. The total distance flown, was around 23,985 miles, achieved in a little under 33 hours! That though, is not the impressive thing. The impressive thing is that the record for a commercial passenger aircraft to circumnavigate the Earth, also achieved by Concorde, but this time an Air France charter in 1995, flying a more convenient and quicker route (also with special permissions by the various world authorities), fighting the clock all the way, with superquick refuelling and landings and takeoffs, all achieved in superfast time with air traffic control sectors on the entire route in on the record so that it could come straight into the various airports without having to hang around and holding patterns.. .. flying a total distance of 22,858.8 miles - was achieved in 31hrs 27m 49s. I think that's a record that's going to stand for quite some time, regrettably. Sadly, that plane is no more so people can't experience it. Hopefully supersonic travel return soon..

Clint Tapper Dude thank you so much for all this information! I love such quality answers on KZfaq

And most of these planes pretty much run 24/7, too. Some of the hardest working machines on the planet. Simply astonishing things, that humans have created.

jyc313 I couldn’t do that flight but yea it’s amazing what man kind has accomplished

You wouldn’t want any of the parts made in China that’s for sure

Modern Aircrafts use electronic fly-by-wire system.. very less moving parts.. that's why Aircraft are reliable.

@@BlackRoomful chinese and heir terrible quality. they are making a passenger plane-- i wonder who is gonna want to fly in one of them.

I agree. But I've done flights like this about a dozen times and this is the first time I had great weather and sunlight the whole time (owing to weather, the time of year and the departure time all together). But still, take a look at some of the comments people are leaving. It's quite incredible that so many people don't understand the geometry of a sphere. Seriously, have a look. I'm done responding to all the "why not just head west instead of north?" questions.

I think people don't understand it because mankind has been falsely taught how the Earth looks like on the desk maps. It confuses people of all age. If schools used an educational desk globe instead of flat maps from early childhood, they would not ask dumb questions.

Jonathan Stewart I work for this airline. I feel ya 😄

What the hell exactly would they understand that they don't now...people are imbeciles, no kind of lesson can change that.

I don't think economy bad, is only simple

@@lu.8400 its really not comfortable

Doing it once a year from San Francisco to Jordan. Worst part is jet lag comes after the trip.

@@clydemarit5584 It is with Etihad or Emirates.

@@lu.8400 its not i wanted to see how it feels from dubai to lax its really uncomfortabel

So true man

Barry Richards 😊😊😊too funny.

Yup! Let’s watch the same movies we can at home while the whole world passes by...literally.

I love looking out the window when on a red eye flight and seeing the sun come up and all the billowy white clouds.. breathtaking.

Fear.

You can't wait to finally fart...I take 14.5 hours (tho probably 16 hours inside the plane) flights twice a year. It's horrible.

Depends on how you like to travel. A lot of people love planes too much they want to stay on them.

I literally LOL'd at "there's always some guy pacing the aisle the entire flight." That's so true🤣🤣🤣 But while we laugh guess who wont be getting a blood clot in there leg on that flight? 🤔

Not to mention the feeling of stretching your legs lol

@@cemonder4165 I fart i dont care. Cover your nose

Coffee. Didn’t you get dehydrated. 🥲

My pleasure sir. Glad you enjoyed.

It's not a planet do the research we flying in an airplane because the u fly over a plane ....you are not spinning

@@truthflatearth Sorry, but we spinning.. and flat earthers already proved it with 20k gyroscope. I think you need more researchers...

Yep! Just got to take care of it too while enjoying it.

Absolutely 👌👌👍👍👊👊👏👏

Until us humans destroy it

can i ask something few qstn ??

Everything is relative

How do you even know the Universe is so big? Have you been out there personally?

@@IRN-bm4xw we all are there right now 😉😉

@@aleksi9504 That's what we're told. But using our OWN eyes, we can't tell. We could be anywhere right now. I bet if they told us we're on the back of a giant turtle, you guys would believe that too 🤦‍♂️ You people are way too gullible.

*@IR0N360* Ok...fair enough......but with just a little leavel headed thinking , the Universe is a proven entity. There''s our Sun , one of the countless many stars in the night sky. There's our Moon and our solar system planets . The Milky way .....very clear in some parts of the world with little light polution. For past decades ,way before all that "fake news" hoopla, there were already photographs of the Andromeda Galaxy (our sister galaxy). It's good to question things , but don't drag it into the ridiculous.... You might as well question your own butthole just because you haven't been there....... You run the risk of sounding like a flat Earth hick , who even while flying over the arctic circle and North Pole stubbornly persists our home planet is pizza shaped ,and we all stroll on the upper crust .....where the Moon provides the cheese.

There was a whole "children's" section. But that's what noise-cancelling headphones are for. Seriously, that's the #1 most important item to take on any long flight.

You do realize that ONLY 21 minutes of the entire 16.5 hours were recorded. That leaves 16 hours unrecorded for kids to cry.

Same

I agree

Emirates, Etihad, and Singapore Airlines don't have kids crying. They're the bosses of airlines

Sathvik Gatti plazma fueled planes in the future beaming thru the skies like in star wars

fossil fuels won't run out, they're going to be used for plane fuel for a very long time.

more importantly, will the 779x have the same flaws as the 787, and will the engine work without flaws over a lengthy period of time... I hope it will be like the 777 as we know it now.

Absolutely 😍😍😍

Young buck guess your the issue

Me too.

7 hours non stop iceland to orlando that was hell

You guys haven't experienced the pains of 12 hours nonstop from Zurich to San Francisco.

I flew from Los Angeles to Saigon, Vietnam and that consisted of a 13.5 hour flight from LA to Seoul, Korea and then another 6.5 hour flight from Seoul to Saigon! Loved every minute of it!

Yep, about to have one of these and I'm 6'4 ):

Hello! How cold is it there?

@@GetOutsideYourself, now -34 °C or -29,2 °F.

Oh that's very comfortable! We have similar weather in Chicago, USA this week. I thought it would be even colder. Best wishes. Next time you see a jet flying over, just imagine the people up there saying hello, as I will.

@@GetOutsideYourself, we have this warming) Usually, the temperature is much lower. -40 °C and below. Most of the year the temperature is below -30 °C . Best wishes. :) Sorry for my bad english. I use translator.

wow! all the best to the incredible resilient people of Labytnangi!

I know, and we just take it for granted and bitch that our seats don't recline enough (they don't). It is pretty amazing how we can fly blissfully over the top of the Earth at 600 mph and get to the other side in less than a day. And it's cheaper than it's ever been.

Yup try explaining this to someone 100 years ago, they’ll think your crazy

Thanks Barb. I got lucky on this flight, clear skies and a very northerly route, which doesn't happen every time. I've done probably a dozen polar flights and this one had by far the best views.

+Jonathan Stewart nice video fantastic

Ashwani Mishra yeah I felt the same way when I flew over the Gulf of Mexico going from Dallas, Texas to Belize a few years ago.

Ashwani Mishra same here, extremely nervous flyer and something about land soothes me, although it makes not much difference

Flying is still the safest transportation according to research and statistics. So as it may look scary your fearful thoughts are unlikely to come true. :)

TheYay1995 As i said in my mssg, I know technicalities but it’s all mental block which creates fear. Statistics show that flying is safe but how many ppl survive In a crash (if it happens) as compared to if a car stops midway or trains stop due to engine malfunction. Chances of survival is the factor hear not how many ppl fly etc. it’s just that more ppl go on road hence more fatalities than flying

Am a nervous flyer to but over land and sea i disagree about being the safest way to travel turbulance and Air pockets are not very nice you feel safer on the ground

Thanks buddy. Yeah we got lucky on the views. I've done lots of polar flights and usually there is haze over Central Asia and clouds over the arctic but this was clear and sunny the whole way.

And my was Germany=Berlin-Turkey=Istanbul :D

They usually don’t go over the pacific as they keep a nice distance from land airports. I’ve traveled twice where i thought they would go over the pacific but no they just kept going through country borders or the Arctic. Never the pacific. It’s huge and you’re right ❤️

Thanks Keith. Always get a window seat, even at night!

Me too if they give liqor and a diaper lol

Jajajajaja

😂😂😂

Thanks Mr. wizard!

And the fact that it is probably filled to the brim with fuel. Probably at or very near max take off weight.

Next time I'll wave as I fly over. Hellooooooooooo!!!!!!

Thanks for giving me that, Space Herpies.

Now its qantas airlines syd to new york 19hrs apx

Thanks! You would think you'd need more food but actually the service is sufficient. It's two meals and a snack and you leave feeling as though you've had enough.

Jonathan Stewart you may be right I haven't been on ultra long hauls yet but for me its a long stretch. But who knows how it may work for me on such flight so you may be right. I guess I'll have to fly on one to find out 😂. P.s which app were you using for your latitude and longitude info?

the flight from abu thabi to lax is not 17 hours as he said max 13 h

The nice thing about a factual claim such as flight time is that it can easily be verified. Go ahead and google (or Flight Radar 24) the AUH-LAX flight and see how long you'd actually be on the plane.

Bilal Ahsan doing night shifts and having breakfast at 4.00 p.m ...is it healthy??

Thanks buddy. More coming this year. I'm flying some interesting routes. The thing that made this one so interesting was the luck of having good weather, sunlight the whole way, and a beautiful path.

Thanks. Actually these videos are pretty easy. Don't tell anyone, but I hardly edit at all, just throw in a few titles explaining where we are.

Same here 😦😦

Sharif Abdul no u wont. Take benadryl.

raleighman3000 no i will take a bullokart to go around the world. Lets make the world a lill more greener. Ha ha

Benadryl? A glass of wine might do the job as well. And in this case wine can be considered as medicine.

TheWuschelMUC if someone has a real fear of flying, alcohol is not the way. Benadryl calms u down like a betablocker, and also prevents motion sickness too. Used it many times flying internationally or just USA.

I mean if your looking down 36,000 feet down with no protection yeah that’s nerve racking, I’m even a little afraid of heights, but when your in an air tight plane with trained professionals that makes you feel a lot safer

@Alex the normal cruising altitude for a boeing 777 is around 35,000 to 40,00 thousand, it looks like it was clear day. if you've ever flown internationally, normal flights go up to around 30,000+ feet

This is also based on physics , the higher you go the easier and faster it is to follow the curvature of the earth and reach your destination faster. Also less air currents to worry about causing turbulence, ive never been on a flight but the science behind it is fascinating to say the least

They are near north pole, where the stratosphere is 7 km high (23000 ft.) Which means that the plane also has to fly a bit lower then in other places, like equatorial areas for example, where the stratosphere goes as high as 20000 km (66000 ft.)
