I took a flight with Egyptair in Business Class onboard their Airbus A330 and Boeing 777 - and ended up having one of my worst flights of the year.

Who in their right mind would go into the lavatory shoeless? That's totally on you. I don't care if it's Lufthansa, Ryanair, Delta, Emirates or ANA.
With on this one - karma ! Hate people shoeless on planes
Thank you! I retired after 43 years as a flight attendant with Delta and I would always cringe every time some fool walked into the lavatory shoeless.
D’oh, dude.
Seriously Noel you should know better than to go shoeless into the lav. You’ve flown enough and seen the mess people make with certain body fluids. Men don’t aim well and in a mild bit of turbulence they are going to miss and pee on the floor. The same floor you are stepping on shoeless.
It you were out on the town and needed to use the loo would you go shoeless into the lav??? No you wouldn’t.
This is why you buy slippers before you fly. They are really comfortable and you don’t need to take them off during a flight unless it’s an emergency. Also you should always be ready to put your regular shoes on if there is ever an emergency landing. Lastly don’t ware high heels when you fly because they can cause the emergency evacuation slide to become unusable amongst other problems. Also I don’t recommend wearing sandals on planes because of risks involved during an emergency. Lastly always wear clothing that is made with 100% natural materials such as cotton and wool because they are less likely to burn on to your skin during a fire or when you are going down the emergency evacuation slide due to the friction.
17:18 The dude next to noel was about to explode lol
He looks like a cop, too
Just barely holding himself back from opening the emergency exit and throwing the kid out, you can see it in his eyes
True hahahaha
@@misterpayah7723 i think that´s what everybody on that plane wanted for sure xD
I don’t understand people that don’t wear their shoes to the lavatory in planes...
or anywhere in a flight for that matter. planes are filthy!
or any bathroom for that matter.
"Time to enjoy my EgyptAir flight."
Baby: "Do you mean, *try* to enjoy your EgyptAir flight?"
I had a similar screaming child experience a few years ago flying Emirates Business class UAE to Manchester . The mother thought it was the flight crews responsibility to look after her young son. She brought nothing for him and was argue if with the crew when they had no toys of baby food for him. The child screamed for the whole flight while the mother ignored him. Still makes me cringe today and that flight was 10 years ago.
That’s awful, sorry for your bad experience. It’s not the kids I have an issue with. Most parents are brilliant at trying to keep the kids calm. The most frustrating is when they just completely ignore the kids behaviour.
Noel Philips Agreed , I remember reading the other year when George Clooney took his baby either business or first he bought noise cancelling headphones for the cabin ;-) www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/george-clooney-gave-out-this-cute-note-with-headphones-on-flight/
@@Crazibaz Not everyone can afford to do that, of course, but a considerate gesture none the less.

You should definitely wear shoes when you go to the toilet. It is flithy and you're transferring bacteria from vomit to number 2 from your socks to the insides of your shoes when you put them on later! 😷
Eugh. Now I am about to burn my shoes 😂
Noel Philips 🤣
@@noelphilips I work in a hospital...I want to burn my shoes daily.😉
I wudda hated to have to Shit !
You are right !
Legend says that the baby is still crying to this day
40 minutes late from take-off and no explanations or apologies? Imagine this when compared to Japan where the train personnel will bow in apology, and give excuse letters you can show to your boss for leaving the station 1 minute late! 😳
It's probably a cultural thing. Some cultures don't offer explanations or issue apologies to their customers. Others are very solicitous and will fall all over themselves to try to make sure you're happy with the service.
Egypt air is almost always late check London to Cairo flight status online
Going to the bathroom shoeless??? I’d have to boil my feet afterwards to kill the bionic super germs there!
@Ahmed Naemi Yea, I don't know how these people who wipe their asses with toilet paper dare to talk
Exactly-is this guy a seasoned traveler or just naive?
@Ahmed Naemi we use the paper until nothing is left. And we shower every day. That's the secret.
"We apologize for no movie on this flight as we forgot to record it from the television"

So true
If you like Air Egypt, ride, if you do not like, you don’t like the one who told you to go
OK Captain Hareedi.
@@itach7__gaming833 engelezee dah ya morsy?
My friend. I used Egypt Air on the same route in 2015. The same experience. Long delays, no explanations, plane power off and on with no explanation, the random airport staff asking for tip money, plain furniture tired and paint gone.. same same.
Flying Egyptian Air? It "sfinx".
"Plane furniture" I like that.
I love how the closed captioning has the screaming child as [music] !
Buy a noise-cancelling headphone mate, you know there r kids everywhere
My first thought too......and earplugs for when you're sleeping.
Graeme Scott even they were useless on my flight, believe me I tried. The child on my flight was beyond horrendous.
I'm with Noel on this one....when you've paid for a ticket (especially business class) you're entitled to a restful flight without having to put up with a screaming brat.
while i agree with noise cancelling headphones, they aren't great at eliminating baby cries. They don't filter out higher pitch noises that well, and baby screams are higher pitched because it grabs attention quickly
exactly!
When Noel hears a baby crying before takeoff.
"Aw shit, here we go again."
🤣
don’t swear it’s bad
I'm pretty sure he said for f**ks sake at around the 17.20mark when that kid was having a tantrum :-D

I have read some horrific stories about Egypt; especially from a food blogger who was constantly harassed by Egyptian Police. Egypt is certainly NOT on my bucket list.
Dude, ear plugs cost like a couple bucks and significantly change your experience.
Ear plugs don't drown out baby screams

@@aleb687 if you want a life changing experience, get bose qc headphones
Your missing the point. You just don't bring screaming kids into business class.
@@ruben2-02 exactly... It's sooo ignorant it's ridiculous.
My mum used to tell me, back in time when i was a babe and we had to travel via airplanes alot due to work, she told me i was always proud of you son cuz you never cried or screamed on a single flight ever !. watching this made me realize why she always kept telling me that.
she been proud cause you didn't make her embarrassed 🤣
Good for you. Announce it form the top of the Empire building.
@@lukelarssen7072 why should a mom be embarrassed if her baby cries? This is a BABY. I know it’s annoying and I hate it too on a plane but it is how it is.
@@Hamoa of course mom shouldn't be embarrassed. BUT sadly it's the reality of our society
People with babies should have their own compartment to fly in.
No Alcohol and a screaming Child for good measure.

At first, I was thinking 13 MBps is actually pretty good, then I realized it was just 13MB total.
I been on Air Cario owned by EGYPTAIR we were delayed for 24 hours.
Definitely sympathize about the baby... had the same experience for *14* hours JFK-NRT once. On that trip, the parents did at least try, for a while, but they seemed to give up after about 3 hours. At that point, the flight attendants took over and did what they could (this was ANA, so the cabin crew made a real effort), but it just never stopped, for 14 hours. That was the point when I bought my first set of noise canceling headphones. They do help.
Rude boarding again: Nothing
Noel: Thanks a lot, lovely, cheers, thank you
I’m British! It’s inbred to be inappropriately polite 😂
@@noelphilips YOU were great. The rude agent was silent. Should at least be whipped.
That’s SA for you. So cheery.....not!

‘My seat mate preferred to watch me sleep.’ 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I had a similar experience last year on an Air Canada flight from Zurich to Toronto. In the row ahead of me was a family from some Middle Eastern Emirate, whose kid screamed the nearly the whole flight long. The parents did nothing to try to quiet it.
I will never Ever fly without my noise cancelling headphones, and that baby is exactly why.
What's a good (and reasonably priced) brand?
@@lesego20 Skullcandy headphones are brilliant, if you're feeling generous try the BOSE headphones.
Same here i have the Bose QC35 & Sony WH-H900N. For flights i used the QC35s
@@lesego20 I'd recommend Sony WH-H900N - They 150pounds on amazon at the moment (if you are UK based) They are not as good as the Bose headphones but close enough for half the price. it really is worth the stretch if you can afford it
HIB Travel thank you! I’m in South Africa so that’s about R2,800
always always always wear shoes to a plane toilet!!!
Benjy A In his defence I’ve done it once or twice but with the cheap socks from the amenity kit and just chuck them in the bin afterwards.
That goes with out saying.🇬🇧
To any toilet! Other than yours.
I didn’t cry and fuss on my first flight. Of course I was 17...
I had mine when I was 4 but I didn't either :p
Mine was when I was 1 year old in 2011 with ryanair
I’m crying now 😂
@@gdstudios539 Thank yourselve lucky young man when I was your age in the 90s we didn't have RUclips or the Internet to keep us occupied, its why a lot of us turned to cannabis out of boredom. 4 bloody TV channels we had five when channel 5 launched big wow.
I was a few months old and didnt. Probably why i want to be a pilot.
I flew with Egyptair as a teen and was harrassed by male staff while going to the bathroom. They even closed the curtain so we could "talk in private", my dad was keeping his eye on me and flew through the curtain in a rage, asking them why they took a minor in the back and closed the curtain. They apologised but my dad told then not to talk to me anymore. I loved Egypt, I even became an archaeologist later on in my life, such a beautiful country with an amazing History. But I was harassed all the time there :/
That's awful
That’s absolutely vile. What did that guy even say to you (if you don’t mind me asking)?
That sort of thing happens all the time in England. Bus stations, soccer games, and primarily at school. You might have been cumming off that way to the guy on the plane.

Legend has it Noel can still hear that baby
I feel for the mother of that crying baby. Two years ago my daughter was on a Tigerair low cost flight across Australia to Sydney with a two-year-old, followed by a long flight to Singapore with Scoot. The little one started to get upset on takeoff on Tigerair then vomited all over his Mum and the seat. Cabin crew were wonderful, they brought a complete replacement seat cushion, cleaned everything up, helped my daughter to clean herself up, cuddled and consoled the little one and generally made the flight tolerable. I repeat, that was on a low-cost airline. Then on Scoot to Singapore, again the little one was upset and crying. Scoot has a "no kids" section that you can select for just a few dollars extra so passengers who have decided not to pay for "no kids" should understand what they have chosen. But no, when the little one was crying the passenger opposite was enraged and abused his Mum and the cabin crew were totally unhelpful. Eventually she was forced to flee to the toilet where she sat holding him until he went to sleep then back to her seat where she held him asleep on her lap until arrival in Singapore. Friends, all kinds of people need to travel and parents can not always control their children's crying no matter how much they may want to. We adults, on the other hand, should be able to control our rage. Isn't that why we claim to be adults?
Whilst it's unfair to blame any children, it's really those parents who appear to be utterly unable to control their offspring. Please don't make your children everybody else's problem! If you are not certain whether or not you are capable to control your kids, please refrain from taking your children with you.
@@alexspuswiss Do you have children Sandro? Some parents have no choice in the matter. Secondly, society is not a loose collection of individuals with rights and no responsibility for each other. Society is what makes all the facilities we use available. The taxes of parents with small children went into providing the facilities for your flight. The children, unless they are babies not occupying a seat, contribute to the cost of flying the plane. A parent with a restless infant can reasonably expect that people who identify as adults will control their impatience with some disturbance. It's not forever, at the most it's a few hours. If that's too hard, ear plugs or sound deadening earphones are available for a few dollars. Perhaps cabin crew should have them for sale.
Having been to Egypt this video does not surprise me. We landed in Cairo and headed to the baggage carousel, upon which we waited 45 minutes for our bags to arrive. This would not have been so bad, but the bags came in waves 15 minutes apart. The first wave came after 15 minutes (business class bags maybe?), then another wave of bags 15 minutes later, then 15 minutes later another wave which included ours. We left, and there were still pax waiting for their bags to arrive. The carousel was serving only our flight! On the flight out there were two guys in plain clothes (not an airport uniform) "helping" you put your bags on the xray belt. Then both (very quietly) holding their hand out for the customary tip - each! It's just Egypt and the Egyptian way of life.
Hi Noel! I’m a cabin crew member from Australia (Qantaslink B717) and you would be surprised how many people bring children and babies into business class. We get a lot of staff travelers who bring families into business. More often than not the kids are great but we did have one landing where the flight crew said they could hear the screams through the flight deck door!
Could there be a possibility that their ears hurt because of the air pressure and that's the reason they scream so heartbreakingly?
everyone has experienced the screaming baby.
Business class doesn't get you out of that.
Well it’s supposed to. If people are travelling with their child, at least have the decency to book economy for them and their kid. Business is supposed to give adults the chance to arrive fresh and ready for ‘business’ (or at least that’s the intention). There is no need for a child to be in business.
They just should be ban from business class and first class
@Jenna Knox nope, Do you?
That's why airpods pro or bose queitcomfort are a must when travelling noise cancellation is so advanced on these things
You forgot the Sony Wh-1000xm4 the best one for flying ✈
Check out the Anker Soundcores for a much lower cost alternative.
Oh my freaking lord. I wouldn’t have made it beyond the chaotic boarding of the first flight, let alone boarding one that had caught on fire previously and an almost 2 hr delay. You’re a brave soul. The mix of the jerk next to you who thought he was more important, and the inconsiderations of other passengers not addressed by crew..which one is worse? I can’t make it a 2 hr flight without a drink. Kudos to you, I feel the need for at least 4 shots watching this.
That baby was screaming Noel because you described a lemon cheesecake desert as a creme brulee !
No alcohol, propaganda video and flooded toilet ... I see Egypt has still not released Moses considering those tribulations !
Cracking video.
Hilarious Moses comment! spot on.
No booze!!
This is one of the funniest comments I’ve ever seen
No Booze nevermind. HOWEVER service from cabin crews should be excellent if not better. Booze can be replace by premium Non-Alcoholic Champagne or any mocktail. Also invest or upgrade seats and invest in Noise Cancelling Headphones such as BOSE. That's my 2 cents.
@@Nada-vk5ct They can keep it to them fucking selves...
Noel the baby was screaming with disappointment because you had just received the best hairbrush ever in the amenity kit but won't be able to use it
It was actually me crying at the realisation that I’ll never use a hairbrush again 🤣
😃😃😁😁
A few years ago my wife and I flew from Fiji to London via Los Angeles. Boarding in LA we were two rows back from business class, separated by a curtain. The row in front of us had a family with 2 small children who screamed for most of the flight. The flight attendant in business class must have been getting some grief from his customers because he came through several times to address the parents. It was a looooooooong flight!
Address them how? "Please put muzzles on your children. Our supposedly adult passengers think they have a right to never hear a child cry."
@@jn8ive60 well, it might of been because the parents were totally oblivious to the children and made no effort to comfort them.
I remember our flight via Singapore Airlines to Australia - my husband, self and four young boys. The Airline staff kept complimenting us towards the end of our flight, plus two other random passengers - which was lovely but we didn't really know why they kept telling us this ...
After watching this video...we certainly know why now lol!!
haha combing the hair with that brush. I know your pain brother. And those pyramids looked amazing! :o
To be honest, your experience sounds much the same as the flights I've had with EgyptAir.
We flew to Egypt with them some time ago and we had broken seats, grotty lavatories, random delays, cabin crew that refused to allow us to open our window blinds for the entire Luxor - London flight for some reason, bad food, rude passengers and screaming babies, and the entire 747 had no pens for UK immigration forms to be completed so the one my Mum had got shared around the entire plane and we didn't see it for over 2 hours.
We had a couple of internal flights with them and to be honest those were actually fine, but their long distance services are awful - both legs we had were as bad as each other. I'll definitely be avoiding them - even Air Koryo rated better from my experience when I flew with them - and the fact they haven't improved from when I used them to when this video was taken is shocking.
Thanks On Your Hardwork Typing This… LOL
The face on Noel when the kid starts crying lmao.
Who's watching this reminiscing about flying in the midst of covid?
🙋♂️
Me!!! Spring 2021, normally we'd be looking forward to going to Cuba from Canada's winter - not this year though...
I do. I'm tired of not being able to travel anywhere. And if that weren't enough, I'm sitting home in quarantine at the moment.
Oh I have done 4 international flights since October 2020. Our recent one was Egypt. We love the fact that we didn't encounter crowds at all.
I'm really missing the travel but the screaming child brought back some bad memories. Once, in Business class, I sat behind one of the worst brats I've ever encountered in my life. The child screamed blue murder for hours and could have auditioned for a Duracell ad. I was exhausted from self restraint.
Nice videos Noel thanks. Looks like a pretty average experience overall. But the 90 minutes delay without a single announcement is just lazy and reflects pretty badly on the airline. It only takes a minute to explain why your sitting at the gate for so long.
Hell you can lie and that'll be good enough.
Truth be told majority of delays, are crew related (waiting on someone with hours to make the flight or someone on the ground called off and someone is having to finish up elsewhere before checking on your plane)
OR my favorite, any issue even a minor 1 like (for example one of my last flights) 2 screws missing in a non crucial panel and they were attempting (The Techs) to get ahold of engineering to see if it could be speed taped and deferred until the next stop or whatever they could have done and that took an hour)
Usually if it's a "major" issue they'll cancel it pretty quickly and just try to rebook people if possible, does them no good to sit there delaying and delaying on a major issue HOPING it magically fixes it self quickly.
Reminds me of my trip from Cancun to Los Angeles with Delta. Just add being hungover and the screaming toddler replaced with a sobbing 9 year old.
The lady flight attendant that met you for boarding and farewelled you seemed genuinely warm and kind.
Lmao that lounge looked more like a shisha lounge than a business/first class lounge
My wife and I flew Jo'burg to Cairo on Egypt Air back in 2011, also in business class. Tired old A330, terrible food. We still look back and laugh as it was by far the worst airline we have ever been on.
Love your open and honest reviews.
Thanks Chris! I won’t say it’s the worst airline I’ve flown on - but honestly as a member of a major alliance I expected them to be better than they were.
Chris as my father would have put it as a poop and shit experience !
Try Air India !!
I’m sure sam chui would say they are wonderful ££££
Not as bad as that Swedish kid.
Wouldn't watch either of them.
Well Sam is just more subtle with his criticism. When he doesn't like something he just mentions some suggestions. A sell-out? Well yeah probably in the sense that he's never particulary negative on anything. However to some extent he just has his own style. He finds any experience interesting in a way.
He's bloody cringeworthy
Sam Chui has a completely different product to offer. He is invited by the airlines, in turn he shows more insight like cockpit views, interviews, etc. which can be quite interesting. Nobody thinks he is doing hard regular customer critique.
When I was travelling alone with my two year old and six year old daughters from Canada to England and back, I got so many compliments from people around us, about how well behaved my children were. I guess they were expecting noisy kids. I never had to be strict with them. We just had a lovely relationship. That is the key to parenting. Babies, on the other hand, are a different thing. It must be very hard on them to fly.
How nice and wholesome.
Personally my mothers efforts of threatening to beat me and my sister half to death if we ever embarrassed her in public kept us both inline, both me and my sister remember this fondly as adults now 😂😂😬.
Back in 2014 my mom and I were connecting in Atlanta from Dallas to Tampa; as we were pushing back from the gate in Atlanta the electricity went out and the engines shut down. The pilot said he would “turn the plane back on” and a lady said “what just reboot the plane?” We continued without incident but that experience has stuck with me.

Wonderful trip report! Thanks for sharing your amazing view over Egypt!
I am quite impressed by how kind you are and how much you say thank you, despite having some fairly miserable experiences. Nicer than most I've seen, Joel! Makes it very enjoyable to watch even your uncomfortable flight experiences.
It is a damn shame seeing this. As an Egyptian, I’ve had to use their services a lot of visit home. And on pretty much all of the flights I’ve been on the staff we’re wonderful and clearly passionate about their jobs, but it’s just a classic example of an airline with potential ruined by poor management.
EgyptAir and Kuwait aren't completely dry like PIA, Iran Air and Saudia. Unless there policy has very recently changed EgyptAir and Kuwait will in most cases allow you to drink dutyfree and provide glasses, ice, mixers etc
That is good to know. Mental note: next time raid the duty free 😂
It shouldn't be required to raid tue duty free for a beer in business class
christmas in summer? come to Australia. 40' Christmas day XD
If I pay that much for business or First class, I don't wanna hear screaming kids.
Last time I was flying with Egypt Air they filled up engine oil with a Coke bottle..... it was an A 320. Seats were loose and the plane was a only wreck. Never again I fly with this airline.
I agree with Noel here. It's not so much that a baby screams, it's more when the parent doesn't make an effort to calm them. I've done a few long haul flights with babies recently, and the parents would soothe their child instantly before it got to the hours of screaming part. That I don't mind! But, putting your headphones in and letting them scream is really unfair on everyone else.
neonwired It’s not the child it’s the parent! Every child is going to cry that’s a given. But hours of screaming that goes unchecked while they ignore it with headphones lies with the parent.
@@neonwired4978 This is not judgmental but we have rights to speak up! You can't deny people from raising issue then coax them into acceptance it because it is not possible and unethical for most of the passengers. For example my parent won't allow us to fly until we stop crying and mature enough to stop behaving like babies so other passengers could have enough rest. As for the lady who thinks bringing baby to holiday was a good idea, she DID not do her job... period!
I have to say though Noels comment was rather closed minded! Business class was for the comfort of the parents as most babies go for free and aren't assigned a seat, so why should they be forced to cattle class just for having a child. But to be fair I'm sure he was exhausted and crying babies are the worst.
My kids would almost every time get ear infections during long haul flights and were very hard to console some times. You cannot treat ear infection with a pain killer and won't find out whats been bothering them until you see a doctor. Everyone wants a peaceful flight but there are something airlines cannot control or even parents. I can't imagine parents deliberately letting their child cry for hours on a flight without making an effort.
neonwired Stop being an idiot
My only trip through Cairo with SQ and the staff/security decided to all go on strike. Not just that they also decided to ransack the airport, destroying all the shops in the process. We were barricaded in the SQ lounge for several hours and then rapidly moved to the relative safety of the plane for another few hours. Boy was I glad to see the back of Cairo!!
15:00 no joke I flew on the Air Canada 767 Gimli Glider once years ago just before she was retired, I took her from Halifax to St. John's. They had a small plaque on the wall in her galley you could see as you were boarding. It was a treat.
Omg! I wish all airlines would watch your videos so they can get an idea of how good or messed up their airline company is. Great video
Hey, at least there wasn’t a killer fly on the plane
Looking forward to this one 😆
I dont know if you have ever flown with small child, but I could easily book business tickets with child to get more space (compared to mortals department) to let the kid do its things. But if the kid happens to be sick or its ears are hurting, it is also very very frustrating to parents too. I can bet my soul that they were wishing their child would had a nice flight too.
But I also understand very well your point. Thats why I always carry my noise cancelling headphones and also ear plugs when flying.
Anyway, I love your videos. Thanks for sharing them to us!
I flew to UAE and back with my then 1 year old disabled child.
We had a bulkhead seat for him on the return leg for a cot for him to sleep in.
He didn't give out a single peep on either journey.
He looked out of the window and giggled a lot of the time, he smiled at the crew as they passed by him and said hello to him.
He happily accepted juice when they offered it to him.
The only thing he didn't like was the hot cloth face and hands wash in the morning before we crab landed at a very windy Heathrow in the morning.
At least the guy next to you on the second flight let you close the privacy screen! Hopefully Egypt Air’s new Business Class is better.
To be fair their 787 looks very nice indeed. Would like to try that one.
I enjoyed watching you use the hairbrush from the amenity kit at 7:41 of the video! You should make more videos of yourself combing your "hair" using the different combs and hairbrushes from the different airline amenity kits :-)
I remember as a little girl growing up in Russia, one look from my mom while out ANYWHERE and i knew what it meant. I remember this as early as 2-3years old. My mom always told me i was the most well behaved quiet child, and all i can think about was that deadly stare which meant death. Train your children to fear that look, thats it. I still wouldnt dare to challenge my mother when i get that look, and im turning 40 this year.
You obviously have no idea ow old that baby was.
You mum sound like a narcist
@@PowerWidow and neither do I care. The parents need to make sure the kid stays quiet. Enough of your sanctimonious sermonising.
I'm a father of 2 and l wouldn't want my kids to fear me like that.
Respect? Yes.
Fear? No.
Sounds like you had a pretty abusive mother.
Anything to do with Egypt is chaotic have worked in Cairo several times. The locals usually have four people do the job of one person, and none if them can do it efficiently. the place us crazy and frustrating but it is never boring and you will experience a different way of live, I loved it there
7:43 had me there 😂
17:16 great reaction! I hate it so much too
Great vid
You don't wear shoes to go to the toilets on a plane!!!!!!!! Yuk man!

Noel: here we go again
Most informative and detailed vlog episode . Plane making its way to Tallin 😂...Great job buddy
When I was a young Mum I had to fly from Kuwait to London with my baby. She cried most of the way because of the pressure on her ears and it was distressing to her and me. I tried everything I could to comfort her to no avail and ended up in tears myself. Was so glad to get off that flight.😥
Rosemary Bleackley then don’t take your baby or go to places with a baby... it’s that simple
@@Cessna152ful How completely clueless you are.
@@Cessna152fulyeah, people with babies should have to drive from Kuwait to London. 🤷♀️
@@BRUtahn Stay mad, maybe wait till the brat is grown up enough to be shut up before taking it on trips.
Ur my favorite channel, I especially like ur videos that are adventurous like ur 81 hours flight 🥰🥰
That screaming kid on that flight would do my absolute head in. I always take noise cancelling headphones with me when I fly to drown out the screaming kids and so I can zone out
I’m new to your channel but have really enjoyed your videos. Even when you aren’t experiencing a quality product your presentation is cheerful. I like that!
At least the pyramids looked great! 😁
I’ve had several flights on Egyptair between CAI and LHR as well as several domestic flights with them. I have to say that all my flights were fine and on time with only one exception. Maybe I was lucky, but based on my own experience I’d happily fly them again. Enjoyed your video though.

I love that Nodl is always nicer to the staff than the other way around
Nice video and very interesting, thanks for sharing this with the audience.
At 11:09 that looks like Egypt Air's new A220 (Bombardier C-Series)
Yep. Developed through robbery of Canadian taxpayers.
Great trip report despite the rough experience. You inspired me to start my own channel several months ago, I enjoy your work! Cheers :D
Traveling with a baby is so exhausting. I remember we flew from Montreal to Paris when my son was only 4 months. He kept crying and no one on board could sleep, until one aboriginal women saved us and managed to calm him down.
Couldn't you have (safely) drugged him?
It was your personal choice to have a kid, your personal choice to ruine every other passenger's flight by bringing him onboard.
@@sierrajk9809 I did say "safely" drug them. Nothing harmful. Just enough to keep them silent for the duration of the trip. Or just tape their gob shut.
@@XAuroraM this is bitter af
@@XAuroraM kids travel on planes. if you don;t want o be near kids don't travel on planes ffs...
flying these days is like going to the supermarket. Always a screaming kid.
They also have awful inflight entertainment!
I sat next to a sick woman on a KLM flight for 10 hours in July 2019, she was coughing her lungs out most of the time. The stewardess told me I could go sit in the Pilot's seat and before I could tell her that I wont know how to fly the plane I realised that she meant the extra seat where he goes to take a rest. I decided to endure the torture and was so worried that I would pick up the germs and ruin my vacation but I was lucky that it did not happen
And you didn't accept this offer???
@@danielnegulescu7858 I was stupid not to accept it yes
I flew from Kuala Lumpur to New Delhi a few years ago and had a coughing man sitting next to me - coughed the whole way. Sure enough I fell sick in India. On the return I had a coughing woman ( horrendous deep lung cough) sitting behind me and sure enough I fell sick on return to KL. What a life !
Good old days pre COVID. any coughing person right now will be isolated lol
Took the same flight from Joburg to Cairo and Cairo back to Joburg back in 2018. Wanted to tried something new, was really impressed. I went to the restroom in the middle of the night and when I pulled the restroom door, it came off!
this man is acting like baby’s come with the package of egyptairlines mate there is baby’s in all flights not just egypt airline
It's a common narrative of all those youtubers flying business (on someone else's sponsorship). They just feel really really important despite being as common as the last of the economy traveler. Going barefoot to the toilet kinda proves it :)
@@ponyclub3198 that’s so true it’s just disrespect bro
Flew Egyptair once a few years ago. 1st and last time ( I mean that btw. I literally cancelled the return leg and flew back with BA instead). Absolutely loathsome airline. Aged, falling apart fleet, surly rude staff and both soft & hard products totally underwhelming. I see they haven't changed
Now I know not to fly Egypt Air !
Wow, they are worse than BA? That means something... So far, my worst flights are all, without exception, BA flights. Dreadful long-haul biz, tired eco, terrible food and the most disgusting coffee I've tested in my whole life. Then again, my last experience with BA was 10 years ago, avoided them ever since.
@Moe Baker firstly it IS true because it's my lived experience of them. Yours may have been different but mine was as stated. The things I didn't like I mentioned in my initial comment also regarding their fleet did you miss the parts of the video where the cabin was shown to be old and out of date with seats that didn't even lie flat
@Moe Baker if somebody showed me what I saw I would fly someone else ! I do hope that Egypt Air can recover because the airline has potental to do well ! Clean aircraft and clean bathrooms and good service are essential to a profitable airline !
Any worse and I'd feel right at home on egypt Airlines as I do on Air Crapada, where it's service with a snarl. They're not happy until we're not happy.
Hi Noel love your vids ❤️
I felt the rough landing 🤣
Personally, my experiences with Egypt Air weren't that bad. Then again, I had just left Sudan Airways ... now THAT's an adventure.
15 Times to Cairo and further to Louxor with Egyptair. No problem. I enjoy the trip and look forward to going to Egypt every time. The images of Terminal 3 and the announcements in the background delighted me. Next stay in February, still Egyptair. Maybe in the end, it depends more on your way of living things. Try to be happy.
1982 1 flew back to Nairobi from LHR on a Sudanair 707.
At Khartoum most passengers got off leaving about 12 of us for Nbi.
Then the lights went off and the surprised cleaners came on.
'Plane no going..not enough passengers'.
Stuck at Khartoum airport for 28 hours waiting for the next Nbi flight.
Never again!
@@robertseaman9680 Sounds very familiar. Sudan Air had nightly news updates (TV) in Khartoum as to whether or not they were flying. The back end of one of their aircraft jutting up from its resting place in the Nile was NOT a confidence-builder either.
With that experience, I just don’t get why they have a membership in Star Alliance.
I also hope to see you try out Scandinavian Airlines’s🇳🇴🇩🇰🇸🇪 new A350 when it goes into service next year.
It a member of the one star airline alliance with air koriro and ryanair
Travelchan Star Alliance has some great members like Scandinavian Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Ethiopian Airlines and Air New Zealand. Despite threatening to leave, Qatar is still a member in OneWorld Alliance with airlines like British Airways, American, Cathay and Qantas.
They were kicked out of Star Alliance.
#Travel 15 United airlines is part of star alliance.
Travelchan wth
OMG. Flying Egyptair next March from Dubai through Cairo and on to Toronto and have to say I am not looking forward to it now :(
Oh boy enjoy 😂 I had a awful experience on a short flight . Ile pray for you 😕😂
I don't envy you. Best of luck.
Change Your Ticket even if it cost more money ! Fly Emirates !
your lucky i’ve only flown on jet2 thomas cook thompson. ryanair
jet2 to paphos
ryanair to edinburgh
thomas cook to mallorca
thompson i don’t know i was young
@@edenm4613 That makes me feel a little better. Its booked and paid for now so I'll experience it first hand. Cheers
Noel, I really like your videos, reminds me of when I travelled internationally. One skill you need to 'brush up on' is ensuring your narrative is distinguishable from all the surrounding sounds. There were times during this vid I simply couldn't make out what you were saying. Love the sound of those fan jets climbing, throaty power sound!!!
It is why we pay extra for business class, to stay away from the crying kids, the idiots who play solitaire on the back of your seat for 8 hours, (like a chicken pecking on your back), and all the other "perks" that come with close human contact with those you don't know or necessary like. Long sentence, yes, but I feel your pain! I'll never book an airline on business class that allows children.
