Hi, I love your videos.

Kinda funny, but as soon as I saw her walking on the conveyer belts, I knew it would be fine. That's a person who is more interested in doing her job right than doing it by the book.

I definitely gone for a roti 🫓. Dip dip in the curry, 🤤

That lady is exactly the kinda person you want to work at the airport you are flying from.

love the Subway salads. Your videos are quite fun to watch

Totally agree. Bothe the check in staff and the cabin crew at the end were absolutely wonderful. I want these people to be there the next time I fly in that part of the world.

Bothe? Da fuck? lol

It's called a typo. @@jays306

Main comment said “staf” and reply said “bothe.”

The Chinese check-in lady had one of the strongest Singlish accents that I've heard in a long time. She seemed super sweet. I've never seen an airline chase down a passenger to let them know when to pass through security.

Not a pilot

@@youtubechangemynamewhy this is exactly what COMAC said. They said it's design for plateau operation, so it has a shorten fuselage, more like MD-87 or MD-95 instead of MD-80/83s. Thought this thing do have a bit too fast for its take off speed, 130 knots or so. Not a problem for plateau since you'll need lots of runway and go fast to get enough lift in thin air anyway, but in "normal" condition it could be a little tricky.

@@youtubechangemynamewhyneither are you

@@youtubechangemynamewhy Hot and high is a phenomenon that exists buddy.

Asians really still know what friendliness and service actually is. They're actually nice and helping not just pretending to help and be friendly like in most Western countries.

Yes!! But I wonder if, in most airports, that answer in the checking desk would guarantee that the staff in the boarding gate let you board the plane with two hand luggage.

I thought the same - honesty!

she was hot too !!!

😊😊😊

@@markg2631 mark you have a wife.

I do a lot of work in regional Australia and I love it when I get a Rex flight instead of Qantas Link for exactly this reason.

So true. If you see the Asian way of service, you really get an idea of what service and kindness actually is.

Malaysians and Indonesians are pretty friendly.

Rendang is awesome, I just haven't been able to find any where I am...

😂

😂😂

I think Noel has done that before....open a bag of plastic cutlery, I mean😂

He knows the spoon technique

Unlikely to happen after what happened with Mexico's Interjet and the Sukhoi Superjet. The last thing you want to depend your schedule on is an aircraft with minimal service history and support, especially parts support if Western parts get sanctioned.

It looks more like they are going all in on the ARJ21 as they have 28 of them on order.

​@@Avantime Interjet didn't pay its bills. You can't get parts if you have a history of not paying.

They will do mixed fleets of A320 and ARJ21, they also have plenty A320 on order.

Chances of that happening is almost slim to none since Indonesia is a neutral country that has long been in business with both the US and Iran for years. Had the Chinese been sanctioned, it wouldn't affect the slightest of their jets operational in Indonesia ​@@Avantime

Better safety record than 737 MAX

​@@azureactivedirectoryHey that is true... The whole MAX line I'd never fly on.

Concorde was once the safest airliner in the sky, until it was not. Without significant data (preferably real data from the Chinese airlines) this statement is meaningless.

Comparatively small amounts of ARJ have been built. If one crashed in china would we hear from it or would it be covered up?

​@@thomaskettunen3699Chances are much higher that the 737Max will crash or lose more windows than the crash of the Chinese aircraft,lol!

He also managed to slip in soviet too.

Glad you enjoyed it

@@noelphilips is it you or your some kind of superiority complex over asia is declaring this.

@@noelphilipsshe is so small and so cute inside her cabin am in love with her ❤❤❤

​@@abhishekchaubey9849Why would a plane based on a 1980's design last long or be popular outside of China? If you look up how the Chinese inherited the production plant and tooling from McDonnell Douglas after their merger with Boeing you might actually learn something instead of assuming shit. Noel has obviously done his research being an aviation geek himself and you have done zero and contributed nothing.

@@phreak761 I haven't done any research true but trust Chinese government, they must have tested plane for safety issues for flying over the years and exporting it to neighbouring countries, no country want national embarrassment. Philips criticism is just too harsh.

Pleasans person? He seems like an arse!

It definitely goes both ways. Speaking as someone who's worked customer service for most of my life, it really helps me be pleasant and helpful when the customer is themselves pleasant and patient. Being obviously impatient or grumpy with me makes it that much harder for me to keep my own cool. So serious props to Noel for being a good customer, just as much as I give props to the staff there for being good customer service people.

@@vicroc4 Teamwork 👍

Comoc is a communist state run organization. Isn’t hard to make a plane with unlimited government funding

The whole country is taking leaps and strides

Wow, thank you!

Illiterate.

Beautiful

She's a stunner

Agreed

My comment to myself when I saw her was simply 'yum.'

Passport bros have entered the chat 😂

Well if the engines are on the back, the noise goes there as well. Poor flight attendant that has to sit in the back, hopefully they rotate them.

Well, he's British.

AirAsia previously didn't want to fly to Singapore but serve passengers going to/from there by flying them to JB's Senai Airport & then run coaches from there to Singapore, but the Causeway border crossing along the way can have pretty long queues (I read that 150 million people cross the border crossings between JB & Singapore annually, equivalent to the population of Bangladesh, the world's 8th most populous country, or 37.5x Singapore's population, or 2.5x the no. of people who pass through Singapore's Changi Airport!)

Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you like them!

😂 That's how exactly wish produce most of their products. Usually an updated older products produced to be sold at discounted prices. I didn't know it actually is the same.

The wings are actually designed by Antonov. And the vibrations have been an issue since the beginning.

It's like if an MD-80 and a CRJ had a kid

Glad you enjoyed it!

You and I, Noel, both know how airport life can be!! So, when you have someone like her is in any airport that approaches you like this it is nice!! 😂 Hahaha.

Glad you enjoyed it!

I open mine by gently probing it with my index and middle fingers 🤣

Glad you like them!

I bet she is a keeper

@@matthewwelsh294 I agree 👍 💯

Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks! 😀

They're not getting the economics, simple. COMAC's job with the ARJ-21 is to learn to build a modern aircraft and develop a support network for long-term maintenance requirements. The Chinese airlines were ordered to buy the aircraft, and like previously with the MA-60/600 the Chinese gave them away for free/tie them alongside Chinese capital injections to foreign operators (Usually Indonesian) so as to gain international support experience. It's vitally important as Interjet in Mexico went bust partly because of the lack of support from Sukhoi for the Superjet, and previously Lockheed left their customers high and dry with the L-1011. So manufacturer support (for potentially decades) is essential for airlines to be confident enough to buy their aircraft. The vibrations are likely due to poor aerodynamics design work and/or lack of thorough flight testing, causing aerodynamic buffeting at certain flight regimes. The Chinese aren't as highly rated as the Russians in their aero design. The lessons learnt from the ARJ-21 is now being put into the C919, and the C919 (depending on sanctions, a possible non-starter) will be the basis for their next airliner.

@@Avantime True. Lesson learned: Good maintenance network is everything. That's what Suchoi totally failed at with their Not-so-Superjet. Here in Western Europe, Irish CityJet, the only Western European customer that ever flew the Superjet, also got rid of them quickly - not because it was a bad plane or had poor reliability, it was actually decent in both regards, but because parts and maintenance service was just so bad. Even in Russia, they failed at that - Aeroflot often had half of its Superjet fleet grounded due to poor maintenance and lack of spare parts, and some Russian airlines openly criticized the plane and Suchoi in the media, which doesn't happen often in Russia. That's what the Chinese will now have to get right.
