Noel really enjoyed this video would it be possible for you to do some sort of video on the fear of flying and some tips on how to combat it cheers
Thank you, I do have a resource on my website, check it out: www.noelphilips.com/fear-of-flying/
Hi Karl, sorry to butt I but I used to have a severe fear of flying up until 2013. I found some amazing resources out there that helped me understand how normal flying is and once I understood this it really helped. I’ve flown 30 odd times since and absolutely love it now so I just wanted to offer encouragement that it can be beaten. Feel free to contact if you want to know what worked for me, but watching Noel’s videos, especially his pilot blogs on the other channel will really help a lot I hope. Good luck in beating it 🙏
Thanks for the reply noel I also love the wizz air challenge keep up the good work
@@noelphilips What's happened to the resource? The page has gone belly-up.
Oh sounds interesting! Wizz Air isnt great :P@@karlbrown1233
The Senegalese hospitality looks to be top notch. From the flight to cabs and even the hotel. Definitely would like to visit
I personally enjoyed how one of the flight staff/crew recognized you and wasn't afraid to come say what's up! Cool to know they are watching these videos and other aviation channels, yet I wouldn't expect anything different!
Most of us are mega avgeeks 😁🤓
@@christofferrosenlund4055 I think you'd be in the wrong profession if you weren't! Cheers.
Was he the pilot?
@@radioactiveranch9637 I believe he said he was "first for this flight" which I believe he is implying he is First Officer. I don't know how Air Senegal displays their ranks, but I was looking for stripes. It could be that he is also kind of the main cabin crew person, but I am thinking he is First Officer, so indeed a pilot. Please correct me if I am wrong.
@@RyanHorseHelmet I thought he said "Purser for this flight"
Another pleasant trip - thanks for bringing us along!
Thank you!
hi y’all are awesome 😎
Absolutely massive portions too! Don't think I've ever seen portions that big on an aircraft.
Standard portions for business class and first class when I was flying the last 40 years until Covid.
I am mega impressed with that airline, far better than I expected tbh. I have seen far worse from legacy carriers in Europe. I will 100% look to fly with them if they are on routes I am looking for. Well done to the airline and the staff who are doing their best
Love the Senegalese hospitality so far, enjoy and stay safe.
Just thought I’d say for someone who has to manage mental well being issues in his own family, the positive attitude and language you use “….. this is going to be a good flight” is a refreshing and positive approach compared to more critical reviews…..and shows your sponsor is doing something right !
In my former workplace, all of the union reps (of which I was one) undertook "Mental Health First Aid" training, and it was one of the best things I've ever done. I've probably used it outside of work as much as in the workplace. Very much recommended for anyone who wants to support others.
If only I could apply it to myself 😝
Thank you for talking about mental health. As someone that deals with depression, anxiety, Bipolar and PTSD, I really appreciate what you're doing. Bravo Noel.
That’s mental mate
To each their own, but I am unsure how a guy that travels around the world for his "job" can be that down.
@@ParadisA330 You make assumptions based on appearances.
People of all walks of life find therapy beneficial for themselves, with halo benefit for their loved ones as well.
Also, people who don’t travel often think it’s glamorous - it’s not. It’s physically and mentally tiring, all while being separated from family and friends for extended periods.
Therapy is most often beneficial to find nurturing and sustainable introspection that builds confidence, and provides insight on how to interpret and manage all that comes at us in life…past, present and future.
Please don’t make a casual judgement by what you see in a vlog, by a vlogger.
@@ParadisA330 mate loads of rich people kill them selves got nothing to do with job, waffler
@Abdulaziz Mohammed Please leave mental diagnosis for persons with appropriate credibility and education.
HiFly crews are top-notch professionals. They work very hard.
Great video Noel. I wish U.S. airlines would provide this kind of service. Looking forward to your African adventures. Safe travels😊
So much delicious food! I did a 30 min flight from Burlington to Montreal many years ago - cabin crew had minutes to hurtle up and down the aisle, lobbing packets of peanuts at us, then rush back to clear up, muttering 'just eat the damned peanuts, people, we're nearly there!' Ah, the luxury of travel.
We had a similar flight years ago between Honolulu and Maui, drink and nuts flying at us then hardly had time to drink before the containers were grabbed as the plane was starting its descent. We couldn’t stop laughing.
@@annettewalter2273 As if we can't survive 25 minutes without stuffing our faces. 🙂
I hope you make it to Ghana.
You'll enjoy the cuisine, historical sites like the slave Castles plus the hospitality of the people
Thanks for another great upload mate! You make my days better, sat here on a chilled Sunday, eating my lunch, watching your videos! Already looking forward to the next one!!! Cheers Noel!
Chilled Sunday... Well in in the Netherlands it's already bloody hot 🥵.
@@sandrahekman5256 Ha! It's hot here in thr UK too!
Glad to hear it!
always nice to see the reverse thrust cover slide back when on the ground and not in the air
Really excited for this series! There's so very little content on flights to and around Africa, really looking forward to following you along on your adventures the next few weeks :)
theres loads.
Noel always does some amazing content
@@jonathanm2690 Do you have any recommendations? I'm looking for some good viewing
You have the most down to earth, genuine personality, which makes your videos a pleasure to watch.
Thank you.
This business class is a really surprise, especially on food, that was among the best! Looking forward for coming African journey videos!
Thanks for watching
I'm so excited you're back in Africa! Your last vlogs from there were such a joy to watch, my favorite so far!
Thank you! Can’t wait to share them!
Quite a nice video, loved it; and the meal? simply superb!
Fantastic video! Always look forward to your travels. Very inspiring and informative.
You are one of the most pleasant people to watch on the internet. Although you encounter many inconveniences and stressors, you are always polite and “mannerly,” without being effeminate. Refreshing.
Thank you for the kind words!
@@noelphilips you are so sexy
Senegalese food is amazing, i'm not surprised that the food had a high standard.
Great video! What an amazing airline and a wonderful part of Africa. Lovely Senegal. Thank you for sharing this
Thanks for watching!
Very excited to see you back in Africa Noel... Looking forward to more videos from the continent
Thanks for all the great videos. Keep up the good work, travel safe Noel. Best wishes to you 👍
Another awesome video, thank you for giving us the opportunity to travel through your eyes, it's priceless.
Travel safe!!!!!
You bet!
Awesome, Noel! I'm from South Africa and I hope you get to make your way here in the next few weeks.
Yaayyy another Sunday Noel adventure! Thanks for addressing mental health, it’s really important ❤️
Brilliant video, Noel! Your comment about the Rock had me chuckling. That meal was impressive indeed! Looking forward to your African adventure.
I think Hi Fly is a Portuguese airline with a subsidiary in Malta named Hi Fly Malta. It is the Portuguese parent airline that has the A330-900neo. Seems the plane was transfered to Danish Sunglass Airlines company in 2022.
I love your African adventures and am looking forward to this one. Air Senegal look a great airline, that seat looked very comfy. Another perfect Sunday treat
Thanks for watching!
Have a good trip Noel.
Thanks Noel! Keep up that awesome work. Hope to hear from you soon. Fabulous channel.
Noel your editing skills are off the scale I just love your content thank you ever so much Noel ❤️
I appreciate that!
Nice video. It reminds me the luxury traveling many years ago. Not so many airlines do it this way anymore.
Hi Noel, I greatly enjoy your videos, can not wait for your next adventure. Stay safe and healthy.
Your uploads have some of the best quality and entertainment on the platform. I love watching them with coffee first thing in the morning. Keep up the amazing work. You have lots of fans :)
Wow, thanks!
Love it Noel! Great meeting you on Friday in Glasgow. Dream come true!
Hope you enjoyed seeing Brad!
I love your videos. so good to see a new airline and surprised to see just how good it was in all aspects. safe onward travels, im off to the pub for the hurling final lol
Thanks so much!
Yea A new series, Will be following.
The A330-neo looks phenomenal, great livery from Air Senegal as well!
Me to love the a330 neo and i like the business cabin.Good job
That was a lovely flight. All of the food, wow.
The food looked amazing!
Great vlog as always! Be safe!
Great video - an airline I've never heard of! It's good to see your trips to places that I'll almost certainly never get to visit
Great video Noel. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
Thanks, will do!
Watching this report made me miss Senegal so much! Great video and I am so happy you enjoyed your time in the beautiful country of Senegal.
Thank you so much!
Sadly missed you in Senegal Noel. Was there only 2 weeks ago. Great country with awesome people.
cheers noel, thanks for all the effort you put in, you and josh are my favourite flight vlogger's big luv from Birmingham west midlands keep it up looking forward to the African adventure.
Thanks 👍
This happened years ago but I got to meet in passing the simply aviation guys in Korea in what ended up being my last out of the country trip due to covid and due to losing my job a year later after the lockdown. Its amazing how just that meeting meant so much to me. I miss my flying around and I miss my friends back in Vietnam but well things happen. Love the video Noel and keep them coming.
Africa airlines to the world! Well done mate.
That was lovely to see the captain talking with you
That was actually the purser, but it was indeed nice of him to introduce himself.
Love your videos. That Air Senegal plane is light years ahead of the Air Senegal DC3 that I flew in from Dakar to St. Louis and back! But that was a thousad years ago!!!
Lovely flight what a plane
I miss Dakar they're nice people thank you for sharing
I loved the video. I can not wait to see where you travel too. Praying for safety for you.
Thank you so much!
That's one of the best ever inflight meals I have ever seen - it looked delicious
That looked a very impressive service indeed. Great to see another African carrier excelling. Would you have had the same amazing food offerings had you been sat in cattle?
Try out the local jollof rice if you see it 👍🏻
Is it sad that I really loved the complimentary bag? Can’t wait to see your travels over the few videos 😀
Hey 👋 from down under .
Thanks Noel awesome video.
Have fun . I will be watching from Melbourne.
Safe travels
Thanks for watching!
Lovely Dakar...love to visit that part of the world...
Noel thanks for the report, a very nice flight and a brand new plane .Air Senegal delivered very well, at least on her business class
Thanks for watching!
Every video I watch, the more I want to fly, I haven't flown in over 10 year's now, it feels like it's about time again! :)
Love your videos Noel, thank you
Glad you like them!
Great work as usual, Noel. I hope that you and the family aren’t too affected by the heat in the UK. Absolutely unreal from what I hear that it was 40 degrees c in London.
Have a safe fun trip Noel can’t want to see your Africa adventure trips.
Never though I would see Noel do the "Paris to Dakar" !
The food on that plane in better than what i get at home 🥲
I enjoyed this video very much, nice to see such a nice airline where it actually seems subtle
I am a big fan, subscriber, and Psychotherapist on BetterHelp. Glad to hear you are aboard our platform and taking care of your mental well being. Cheers!
Really enjoyed this one. I'm going to Senegal in December so it was great to see the airport. Looking forward to your African series.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good flight, you're right about the food, comparing it to the BA/KLM long hauls i've done in the last month in J I would take the Air Senegal food every time.
Woah that’s so luxurious
The thought of Dwayne 'the rock' Johnson waving our noel off had me in stitches. Another great video noel. Thanks once again.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@noelphilips love all your content. I hope you and family are loving your new life in Texas. Sending best wishes from castle Donnington !!!
Great video. Always look forward to watching your channel.
I appreciate that!
Thank You Noel.
My pleasure!
After following Sailing Zatara on their African adventures last month, this will be a fun series to watch! Africa is beautiful continent.
Very relaxing voice. Nice chap.
Glad you think so!
Thank you. From Sénégal 🎉
Air Senegal now does DSS-JFK-BWI and back, definitely unique for BWI airport near Baltimore/DC which doesn’t get a ton of foreign traffic
Great review i really like the fact you dont end your video after landing and we see bit of the country
Glad you liked it!
Looking forward too your trips in Africa great video on your flight the food was delicious looking
Great job Noel we all love your vids
Thanks so much!
Didn’t have high expectations for Air Senegal so I’m pleasantly surprised, the A330neo looks good too! Great video Noel ☺️
Thanks a ton!
Great upload Noel, and finally registered myself for my mental health so all in all I'd say productive video.
Looking forward to this trip 👍
Always love
Watching your videos, Noel. Thank you for taking us to places that I know I will never get to travel to. Oh, my husband likes the Loo Reviews, said Noel should make a magnet of it and put in his store. Cheers to you.
That was a fab video and the food oh my dayz really been looked after there
seemed like quite a decent flight!
Great video! That food looked amazing
Thank you 😋 It was.
Great video Noel again!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you think so!
Looking on going a holiday there now. Always love going to new places. And will save my money to go Business class Air Senegal
West Africa is just the best !!
I am hooked on this channel. Love it.
Glad to hear it!
Thank you for showing us their A330-900neo. I've seen their A330-900neo a couple of times in Baltimore. A lovely site indeed.
Many thanks!
