This is spooky, I was just looking at flights to shanghai from Manchester and the option via budapest with shanghai airline’s 787 was available and so I looked up trip reports for the shanghai airlines 787, and not only did I find it! But I got a notification for this video a couple seconds after pressing the search button! And it’s on the same route and everything!
This just proven the observer effect. By search for a flight with Budapest to Shanghai leg, you changed the Quantum decoherence of this universe and caused Simply Aviation to fly to Shanghai and not another city. The effect propagates backward in time so that's how he took the flight before you even caused him to take it
@@danielhjelle7033 That's nice ! Thank you for sharing your opinion 😃 Though to be fair. The comment pertained to ULR like PVG - LAX. MU used to operate A346 til 2014 without PTVs.
Shanghai airlines is China Eastern subsidiary, connections connections.. Plus business wise and budapest being one of European top tourist cities the aircraft will be full. China southern launched further xian and chengdu routes to budapest operated by shanghai airlines. Whole of Asia and Oceania is connected, just like Emirates only relies on connecting passangers to fill up planes.
Was on a China Eastern A350 flight recently (don't worry, just before COVID-19). And their safety instructions video also shown here is the cutest thing I've ever seen on an airplane. Had to smile when they were jumping the slide like it's a game.
Loved the take off vision..very clear !! Were your peanuts warm ?? Great report as usual and the landing views were great !! Keep up with the excellent reviews !!
just flew this route week ago. aircraft seemed brand new, spotless and smelled nice, lots of legroom. crew was good, food not great (though I very much appreciated fresh fruit) but all in all I was highly impressed.
Yes the BUD Airport is so crowded at that time, I also flew with Shanghai Airlines from BUD to PVG. Around that time you have LOT Polish to JFK, AA to Philadelphia Emirates to Dubai, ElAl to Israel and a lot more long haul international flight and unfortunately BUD airport is so small and cannot handle that amount of people.:(
Much the best economy class food I have seen for a while! Don't worry about not showing the entertainment system. I know it is important to some people but that is the bit I always skip.
I’ve Been To Budapest Before. The Bus That You Were Riding In The Beginning Was Very Hot For Me And My Family -We Almost Fainted! Anyways Nice Trip-report And..
Budapest Airport just went under renovation and is in the profess of building a new pier with a dozen wide-body gates! According to the planes they plane to build another second pier on the opoosite side, so the crowdedness should go down a bit.
Took this airline LAX to BKK round trip in 2017. They had the segment between Shanghai and Bangkok. I remember complimenting the crew. Interesting thing- the coffee was served in thermal pitchers as normal but was a mocha type drink- learned it was a Chinese style. The meal was about like yours - wouldn't have received it on a US carrier with a similar route.
About the numbering of the rows, they use a system that’s kind of like 1-10 for first class 10-30 for business class, and 30+ for economy class. The reason why is it will be easier for check-in desk.
David, very nice review. Meal service looked very nice and the plane was nice also. Drinking beer at such a young age, have to be 21 in the US, lol.... Nice to see those big Delta jets.
I am pleasantly surprised by the meals that were served. The portion size was good for Economy class and the presentation excellent! I wonder what it could have been in Business!
Majong are best game to kill time when flying long haul on Chinese airline. Easily get player from another passenger. 1 games normally takes 3 - 4 hours, 2 games already reach destination.
I used to take this flight from Shanghai to Melbourne, the space between seats were just nightmares, disasters and I am only 168 cm 49 kg weight. I barely slept during the journey, but everything else apart from seats were fantastic especially the cabin crew.
The seat numbering rule is, First:1~10, Business: 11~30, Economy: 31~. Even if the prior class numbers are not fully utilized, for example, first class only has 3 rows, business still starts with 11 and economy always starts with 31.
Maybe not the best comparison but you could think of Shanghai airlines and China Eastern kinda like SWISS air and Lufthansa.. Swiss is owned by Lufthansa, has a smaller fleet, flys to less destinations but, is marketed as Lufthansa slightly more premium product.
When u onboard Shanghai airline, after u seated,u notice the all the things is label as China eastern also the safety video.and u think,am I in the right airplane
I'm a bit curious as to why you don't check in online and have the boarding passes on your phone, I do it all the time and have never had any problems.
It doesn’t work for flights to countries where you need a visa, because you only get the boarding pass after presenting your visa at the check in desk...
The aircraft spends more than 5 hours in Budapest. After arrival, it's moved to that spot, where it doesn't take away place. Before departure, it's moved back to the gates.
8:59 The cabin is ready to sleep:
Literally everyone is on their screens.

Wow! China Eastern airline/Shanghai Airline have really improved, their efforts of becoming a more premier airline has really payed off!
I live in China and I fly China Eastern and shanghai airlines all the time, they have always been great.

12:49 Delta has just a lot of flights to Shanghai like Atlanta to Shanghai
"Is this Shanghai or Atlanta?" Hahaha, lol
That part cracked me up 🤣
Welcome to:Seemingly demandless routes that can fill a wide-body aircraft.
Chinese package tour operators: 👀👀
Pretty good demand on airline empires
It is because it's China and we have loads of people...

Most (apart from few major one) routes to china depends solely on tourist demand.

Why would anyone worry about that?
I wish all airport's had a visitors terrace + good for you Shanghai airlines for not using plastic 👏👍
I liked the video as is, David! I have nothing to complain about. It was wonderful! I always enjoy watching Simply Aviation vids. So fascinating!! 😊👏👏

I could recommend to you that you should fly to Canada so that you could go aboard on one of the 737-200s that are in Canada....
Trainspotter Dorsten that’s what’s Sam chui did

Wow, the IFE is good. A huge upgrade over China Eastern's 777's IFE. BTW, miss PVG, I transit through there about 10 times in the last 2 years :D
"Is this Shanghai or Atlanta?"
That made me burst out laughing 😂
Love your new thumbnail with the texts and everything. Keep up the good work👌
Waited so long for a video in Hungary! Greetings from Budapest, David! ;)
Amazing love the channel please keep making videos
Loved the take off vision..very clear !! Were your peanuts warm ?? Great report as usual and the landing views were great !! Keep up with the excellent reviews !!
1:17 Just a little advice: there is a free terrace at the aurside as well.
Eastern airlines offer the best services and equipment. They are to be congratulated!
6:08 Now this is my kind of window, it looks stunning
Love this video, especially because it is from Budapest. You should also try once the Budapest-NewYork route

How is seat width compared to the A330? Gonna be travelling in this in a few weeks :O
Shanghai Airlines seems decent, that Business Class seat looks nice.
I am pleasantly surprised by the meals that were served. The portion size was good for Economy class and the presentation excellent! I wonder what it could have been in Business!
See you again
大衛阿哥，你的中文講得不錯，無論還有一點錯，可是還可以啦😄

Fantastic Trip Report mate!👍
Very nice! Shanghai seems like they have a great product.
The Budapest airport terminal looks like a school stadium on the 1st day of the semester...
All those Delta planes at the end 😂!the cabin was really nice on your flight, too bad the windows were still a bit dimmed during the takeoff.
NYC Flyer hahahhahahahahahahahhahaha
Yes! "Is this Shanghai or Atlanta." 😂
@@whiskerboii2466 That part cracked me up 😂
I kind of like the music they played at the end of the flight

I just love boeing 787 -9👍👍👍👌👌👌👌
Enjoyable video, thanks.
David, very nice review. Thanks
In Budapest do you see the MALÉV HUNGARIAN AIRLINES museum?
What's brand of the spotting device? Go pro?
Did you have time to watch the F1 Race weekend at the time?
Budapest my home airport :)
Can you fly with corendon airlines?
do you saw the F1 GP in húngary??
How long was this flight???
I was in Shanghai in July :) Flew with Emirates from Vienna via Dubai.
Amazing tripreport! :D
You should do a trip report on Delta's A350!
A friend flew Shanghai Airlines and said it was great.
Wait! The safety video shows a China eastern b787 ?!
Shanghai Airlines is the daughter of. China Eastern, similar to how Cathay Pacific and Dragon Air made a sister airline called Cathay Dragon.
Dragon air was bankrupt, Shanghai airline was sold to China eastern
Louis Pvz2 While that is true, Dragon Air Cathay Dragon are technically the same.
Its literally impossible to travel from Budapest airport without it being super crowded
Way better than what air india could do now
You are really the best! Please fly in Finland
This video was taken on the 28th of june, right? If yes, I was aboard Tarom's A318 what you have filmed in the beginning of the video. :D
Nx time try Juenyao Airlines 787 from PVG to HEL
HEL nah im going to HEL
Before pandemic the aviation was very different
Maybe not the best comparison but you could think of Shanghai airlines and China Eastern kinda like SWISS air and Lufthansa.. Swiss is owned by Lufthansa, has a smaller fleet, flys to less destinations but, is marketed as Lufthansa slightly more premium product.
Can you fly with the Dreamliner in Turkish Airlines Business Class?
Good 👏
There is nothing better then watch a Simply Aviation video while taking a shit:D
Does shanghai airlines has free checked bag for economy class passengers
head soccer most Chinese airlines have checked baggage included for economy. For economy shanghai airlines should provide 2x23kg bags per person.
head soccer Yes! 2 x 23 kg on long haul flights in economy, 20 kg within China. There are new fares for Asian flights with/without checked baggages.
When u onboard Shanghai airline, after u seated,u notice the all the things is label as China eastern also the safety video.and u think,am I in the right airplane
U shld try their A350-900s

Normally in China, China Eastern has a very bad reputation for its service on long haul flight. But it seems much better on this flight.
11:42 Same music China Southern usese when boarding the plane
13:54
Hope you have a nice day!
WOW you can speak Chinese?
Was war es denn nun wirklich für ein Flug? Lt. Ankündigung Shanghai Airlines. Der Bildschirm und die Kopfhörer sagen China Eastern?
Why was the plane on an isolated tarmac stand? Why not be pulled somewhere closer?
The aircraft spends more than 5 hours in Budapest. After arrival, it's moved to that spot, where it doesn't take away place. Before departure, it's moved back to the gates.
Thanks for making 787 video that i askd you
