This short 30-minute hop (and the return later in the day) was one of our favorite flights of 2021 despite offering no onboard service. What were your best flights of the year?

I love that brake,full trottle and then realease brakes upon departures.

Sweet and Short ✈️ fantastic seating location, the propellers screening the sunrise was spectacular! 🌅 Disfruta El Hierro !🏝

It was fun to see that the camera shutter speed matched up really close and the propellers just went stationary for the shot when the ATR was landing.

Hi dude, I'm from el hierro... Awesome video!! Hope to see you back in the island!!

Thank you very much! :-) Hopefully the pilots on the preflight had done their checklists. The Canary Islands are a dreamland. Thank you very much for covering two of them up! :-)

Taxi speeds are definitely on the flight crew. Last year, the crew seemed to be wanting to go home after the day's last flight so hard they backtracked on the runway so fast I thought we might take off again :) Curiously enough, that was a turboprop, too, an An-24 though :D

El herio airport is a military base, so no photo! Island deserved more time than a day trip. Binter crew often have bruises from wobbling side to side doing briefing during taxi. Love the airline very good at what it does an looks after passengers well. Hope to return some day.

Excellent review and also it’s very joy to watch. Nice filming too

I flew ATR's for about 4 years, before going to the B738, and the highspeed taxi, is a ATR thing, it also feels fast, because it's such a low aircraft. The time you can't catch up in the air, do it on the ground :p

Yay! Finallly a piece about Binter Canarias 🙌🏻 I did these hops a couple of times, mostly TFN to FUE, or SPC and always enjoyed the busride-like experience. They actually served a bottle of water, something sweet and newspapers ˋback then‘ (like…2019 😅)

I flew from TFN to GCA with Binter. After engine start the pushback was performed by reversing the engines. Quite a strange feeling with the engines on high power and we are rolling backwards and reversing under our own power to face the taxyway. Inflight food was a mint sweet for the journey.

Binter was very notorious among the Canarian population for serving a local brand chocolate bar called Tirma which is very popular, no matter how short the flight was. Unluckily it has been suspended because of you know what.

Have a smooth cruise.

thanks that was cool 💙🌺

Good job!

Great vlog as always! It a well known fact that the Spanish drive like crazy. Now confirmed that some ATR pilots do the same at work. Lol!

About short flights, mine was aboard the Island Airlines Ford Tri-Motor from Port Clinton, OH to Put-in-Bay, a distance of about 14 miles.

Great report ❤️✈️

The ATR takeoff is really fast and pushes you into your seat.

The Canaries are not named after the yellow birds. It's from the Latin word Canine or Dogs. The lslands were given the name because there was lots of stray dogs lying around. This is still true today especially after the flight from Luton.

El Hierro is the only Canary island I've never been to (yet!). I live on La Palma and often use Binter, a good efficient airline. The main problem for visitors from outside the Canaries is that internal flights go from Tenerife North Airport (TFN) & international flights operate from Tenerife South (TFS) at opposite ends of the island, so getting to and from the smaller islands is difficult. Binter, please can we have a TFS-SPC connection to help us recover from the volcano.

Perhaps the high-speed taxiing is a Canarian thing? I flew with CanaryFly between Tenerife North and Gran Canaria (also on an ATR 72) and we were going pretty fast on the ground too.

Ayo that's my island right there (Tenerife)

It might have felt like a high speed taxi, because of being relatively low to the ground, the terrain moves faster and closer, tricking your brain that you are super fast. The complete opposite of 747.

Flew them this summer from FNC To TFN, they gave each passenger a free mobile phone stand as a gift :D

The flaps seems to be left at 30 instead of full retracted. After landing CL has not been completed successfully.

Awesome flight review and daytrip! Definitely consider on my next visit to Canarias :) Was there any onboard service during the flight(s) btw?

Do you understand the Spanish spoken by the crew?

I can do that for Flightradar24. Do you hire ?

I never knew the Canaries were a real country. The only time I've heard of it was, "Made in Canaries".

Nearest continent to Canary Islands is Africa and not South America !!!👍

Actually you have Cabo Verde between the Canaries and South America

funny comment cause the Iberia pilots call Ryanair Pilots "Boy Racers" ha ha

This company used to have and i think also now strong connection with politicians of the canarian government thats why they dont require any certificate or test to flight within the islands. I think its the only place here ti fly they dont ask it....

You must absolutely detest your job...
