    Seems to me like you wont fly them again because they're leaving Star Alliance in favor of Skyteam. Which is far enough, but it's not reflected in the title.

    • @MarkusTravels
      @MarkusTravels  7 месяцев назад

      Yes, that's correct. One of the constant challenges of RUclips is to come up with clickable titles. For the outbound video I used a much more neutral title to see what works best.

    I don’t like clickbait, I think you are funny and make good content so I would avoid that. Is a turn off.
    The dirt on the seats is just inexcusable! 🤢 people saying you complain to much but I actually appreciate an honest review. The points that you make are super valid. For me the worst was the fact they don’t clean after the last passenger. Is just plain gross.

    • @MarkusTravels

      Yes, the cleanliness was certainly an issue on this flight! It's a shame; I can't remember that being a problem om SAS before.

    I clicked on this video because of the title expecting 1 of 2 options.
    1. That it would contain a bunch of nitpicking of tiny problems that could arise on any airline, but presented in a way to make it look like SAS offers a bad product.
    (I mean "they didn't have a procedure to take my coat", seriously dude?)
    2. Just your run-of-the-mill clickbait.
    I applaud your ability to check both boxes. I wasted 28 minutes only to figure out that the main reason was just the inevitable alliance change. Which is a fair reason, but should have been presented in the title. Needless to say, I don't feel compelled to watch another one of your videos. What you're doing just isn't an effective way to get returning viewers.

    • @MarkusTravels
      @MarkusTravels  2 месяца назад

      Your comment is very insightful, Haakon. This specific video has the highest dislike/like ration on the channel. And it's also the most clickbaity. As content creators, we do try different formats. There's another video on the channel, about the outbound flight, which is less dramatic. It has significantly fewer views.
      Your are also right about return viewers. This channel as a whole has a very low number of return viewers. It's definitely worth thinking about why that is.

    • @HaakonHawk
      @HaakonHawk 2 месяца назад

      @@MarkusTravels Honestly, since you acknowledge the clickbaity nature and since I'm far from the only one who has pointed it out in the comments. I'm wondering why you don't just change the title?
      Because even if this is "the most clickbaity one" on your channel. If it's the first video they see from you (which was the case for me), then that's gonna keep hurting your channel as a whole.

    We're just back on an A330 and had great service from the crew - both outward and return they were warm and attentive. The overhead bins were all pretty much empty so I was quite happy to gently fold my coat and put it in there. Unlike most airlines the even numbered seats have a wide table / platform between the seat and aisle and this made it feel exceptionally spacious and private particularly when you are partially reclined or in flat bed mode. There were only 4 seats across by 8 lines with 4 stewards.

    Labels are pretty straight forward. I think you have volume increase, volume decrease, light on/off, cancel steward, call steward (top to bottom). Why is that hard to understand? The title is completely misleading, leaving an airline because it changes alliance? More accurate tile (and not click bait) is SAS Business Class is adequate, but leaving Star Alliance. Not certain I will watch another video.

    Markus, no idea what you did not like? The seat looks decent, the food delicious and plentyful (the main though looked a bit oily) and the price SAS charges is unbeaten - so this should be considered as well! I had many LH and Swiss flights in C which were very mediocre and I love the Austrian service but their seats in C feature no privacy at all...my view - its very transparent what you get nowadays...so why complain about obvious weaknesses

    Sorry to be hursh but what is the big premium to fly 350 compare to the 330? Something you complain about and I can’t figure out. Had a flight to ORD from CPH recently and it was some house after the food service when they in SAS Business just have the galley snack bar behind 8A seat. When I get there they got just one Coca Cola zero. And wanted a Sprite just asked them nicely in they got a Sprite left. Took 10 sec before I had a cold one at the same time I would one ice cube or two and he saw it was just five cubs left and most water. So he filler it up with new ice. Later on I wanted to taste the Apple must and even this time anothere crew member said one second it in a few second I got a full glass. Dunno if it something new for the trip I did but you can pre-order both way and there I got option to order both vegeterian and vegan even if during my flight they had one vegetarian option in the menu. I also prefer that SAS would continue in Star Aaliance but I rather accept they get invested by Air France-KLM and continue their service by Skyteam compare I have to fly by Norwegian, BRA or Finnair as Nordic provider in the sky 😊
