Tahitian Dreamliner: Air Tahiti Nui - The Most Exotic 787
Рет қаралды 1,084,553
Күн бұрынI hopped on an Air Tahiti Nui Boeing 787 Dreamliner from Auckland to Papeete, French Polynesia. Air Tahiti Nui 787 is the most colorful and the most exotic 787 I’ve flown. Flight attendants gave out tiara flowers to passengers. The flight was an immersive experience of Tahitian culture.
I literally traveled back in time and gained a day by flying from the earliest time zone (New Zealand) to the last timezone (Tahiti) by crossing the dateline on this flight. Tahiti is located in the middle of the South Pacific with isolation. The nearest diversion point is Cook Island. As a nice welcome, Polynesian music was performed after landing at Papeete Faa’a International Airport.
I spent a day exploring the island of Papeete by visiting a waterfall and spending some time planespotting. Next week, I will fly on Air Tahiti domestically to explore the Tahitian Islands of Huahine and Bora Bora.

Absolutely the most beautiful island in the Pacific. The Polynesian are the most friendly people in the Pacific. I was there in the 80's doing garments businesses. Always love the place, the people, the food and the beautiful islands. Bora Bora , always that beautiful until now. I used to fly there by UTA , a French long haul carrier , made a few stops from Singapore- Jakarta - Noumea - Tahiti ( FAAA) Too sad, i m old now, in my 80s ,can no longer travel to Tahiti anymore. But, the memories will always be with me forever. Thank you to the people of Tahiti and thank you Tahiti.

I was there in 2019, the island of Tahiti itself is great, especially the wild interior, but the real beauty of French Polynesia is on the outer islands, Bora Bora, Huahine, the Tuamotu archipelago, the Marquesas islands, the Gambier, it's literally the postcard definition of paradise on Earth, you still get all the modern world comfort but free from all the stress, pollution, crowds and other problems of bigger places.

Sam. I have to agree on your statement on your videos no longer being reviews. You are absolutely right! They are experiences. Tastefully produced with your unique insights and access to a lot of interviews, private showings, air shows, interviews with industry giants like executives and enthusiasts. They are professional engaging and a clear stand out in the flora of aviation videos. Your fame in the industry surely must be a problem trying to make reviews any longer too. Let others do the reviews. There are a lot of capable KZfaqrs for that. You be you! Keep evolving your channel.

This is my opinion about whats a great flight too, not exactly this but to experience something interesting and rare. Great flights isnt about first class seats or impeccable service, something as simple as eating an exotic fish meal beats every crappy salmon served in 1st class. My best flight ever had zero comfort, no meal, no drinks, no attendant and very strong wind.

I flew twice with Air Tahiti NUI from Auckland to Paris via Tahiti , I clocked up about 20,000 air miles which I thought would get me several free flights normally. But because of the huge distances , I didn't have enough miles for even the shortest flight. I flew with Air Tahiti from Paris to Auckland on my birthday, it was my special day for 36 hours due to the timezones. I fell asleep on grass at Papeete Faa airport waiting for the connection and when I woke up I was surrounded by huge crabs. There was a McDonald's in Papeete and most of the women actually do wear flowers behind their ears. I had a tattoo done there, "tattoo" is a Tahitian word ! Beautiful airline with great food. It's always a big shock when leaving Auckland to hear French on the speaker.

@@SamChui oh yeah it gave me an awesome view, it was like being there with you !!. Lets face it when you get really successful like you (through your hard work), you get recognized more, you get flagged in airline booking systems, maybe get free-bees, invites to review etc....but by being transparent, it makes it more believable. I think we all like the romance of air travel, so no need to take the gloss off it to much, by being overly transparent !!, but just give us a hint of it (we still like to dream). I think also from a business perspective, keeping it semi real is less of a long term business risk for you. Your long term fan Hayden.

The one great thing about this airline is that children 11 and under fly free from LAX to PPT. I took advantage of that as my children were 9 and 10 at the time. We went onto Moorea by ferry and then back to PPT for a commuter to Bora Bora. They will never forget this trip for as long as they live.
