The "offical Noel Philips East Timor meet n greet"😂❤ i love when RUclipsrs film their fans coming up and saying hi. Did you ever imagine you would have such a worldwide audience?!
You are such an optimistic and witty person and I think this really helps your channel stand out. I love your videos!! Just found you and have been binge watching and learning a lot. Looking forward to the next one!!! Cheers!
Hi Philips Thnks to visiting My country as A Timorense i'm verry happy beacuse you can introdios my country and then axplore my country so Thnks so much .mr Philips Obrigado..🇹🇱🇹🇱
Noel must be sleep deprived. Teasing us with the mystery next destination at the end, having completely forgot he told us where he was going next half way through the flight.... Another cracking video.
Heehee, I said that too 🌼😂 gotta love Noel, but yes I don’t know how he does it sometimes - it must get exhausting not to mention the constant jet lag. We appreciate him.
Really like the footage of the destination, please do this more often! :) Your flight reviews are always exciting to watch, but showing what it is like at the destination is superb!
Nice bit of nostalgia for me..... one small point: the island you point out at 20:27 is actually Atauro, which is not Indonesian, but part of Timor-Leste. Great island to visit.
Have been to Atauro! Stayed there overnight back in 2012 in a beach side shack. It was where I first saw fireflies in the wild! Lovely island, worth the ferry trip over and back. Think the ferry we took over we shared with the Australian ambassador at the time!
It looked not too bad. A little rough but not bad. The people were friendly. The airline was basically economy. The beach at the end looked beautiful. The hotel was pretty nice. The pool looked really nice. Another awesome stop on your journey Noel. Looking forward to the next adventure. Sending positivity to you Noel ❤
@@dedeyusuf223 Timor Leste has a population of about 1.3 million. According to the UN, since the Indonesian invasion, about 100000-300000 people died (Mass killings included). Let's be conservative and say 150000 died. So that's roughly 11% of the population of the whole country. Of course it is very bad and it takes time for a country to rise up from that amount of devastation.
When you told us you flown with Aero Dili to East Timor weeks earlier, i am a little bit worried since the warning by another of my favorite aviation youtuber and your friend, Josh Cahill. 15:23 it's my favorite part👍
I'm impressed by his ability to survive food poisoning 😃 Is there a mix of meds taken as a preemptive strike ? 😃😃 Or did he actually skip ingesting it 😃😃😃
Thx Mr Noul.. Verry apreciated for you visit and explore our culture and tourism, we hope through this video will be guide too many of visitors tovisit our cantry 🇹🇱👏❤️
At 15:26 -- freer country than Australia for photography. The Albury airport won't allow cameras on the way to or from the airplane, and the Gestapo get cranky if you miss the hidden sign in the airport. Weird.
Hey Noel, thanks for sharing Aero Dili and East Tiomor, it's awesome to showcase this airline and country, I hope the airline improves and just maybe next time you fly on it, things will be better!
Thank you Noel for always keeping me entertained with your posts. One of my favorite RUclips channels since Covid. I hope to run into you one day at IAH.
Noel, if I am not mistaken your hotel in Timor was one of the first ones to be built just after independence. It was built for aid / govt workers working on the transition to full independence. The hotel was built from containers and whatever was around.
Gettin' silly on Aero Dili, got a Grandma Hazel and a Grandma Tilly. 😅 All jokes aside, judging from Noel's experience, I think the airline is decent. Beautiful little nation and friendly people. Noel is truly living a dream!
@@stephenhemingway8218 Well i thought it's a 'lil bit chilly, like my ex who went by named Millie. Thoughts of her made me bit grimly, then i realized she's as hard as a mama grizzly.
It will be nice for East Timor to thrive and grow. Hopefully tourism will flourish and not damage the country environmentally. I've met People from Timor and they are wonderful. I'd love to visit this country
Hi Noel I love your channel thank you for doing a video on this airline and hope your personal information is safe with the airline. I would like to say when you checked into this hotel it was a shock to hear the clerk say he was from Wollongong I'm from Wollongong nsw Australia you should one day take a trip to Wollongong it's beautiful. Happy travels and can't wait for the Darwin video. 🇦🇺❤❤
9:35 fun fact, if you take direct flight from sabang (westernmost city in Indonesia) to Merauke (easternmost city in Indonesia) it will take around 5-6 hours non stop, but unfortunately there's no direct flight form Sabang to Merauke, so you have to transit several times in several different cities, and it will take around 12-14 hours, so yeah Indonesia is very very big, i even can't imagine that if you fly from westernmost part of indonesia to the easternmost it will take very very long time and you're still in one single country
What it is the bathroom in your hotel and well the room overall isn’t bad. It’s not fancy. But it does look clean and comfortable. Which really is what you need. If you’ve been traveling and are worn out. Doesn’t have to be fancy. Just clean and comfortable and relaxing.great video my friend. Thank you for posting and sharing. Ask for that television though lol, I think my iPad pro 12.9 inch is bigger than that lol
In Oz if you get the chance, fly the Dash 8 Qantaslink flight from Cairns to Hamilton Island. Lower altitude means you get to see the Great Barrier Reef (sit on the left) for much of the flight. The short runway at HTI means the flight would turn into a cruise if the brakes fail. Hire a golf buggy & drive past George Harrison's house.
I recognize the lounge in Bali. Not the worst lounge I’ve visited. Smart to eat BEFORE the flight (especially after seeing Cahill’s video!) Continued Safe Travels! ✈️🙏🏻
Another great vlog Noel, totally love all the different airlines you fly and all the countries you visit, you always make it so special and great viewing, 👍✈️
The island you pointed out is not only of Indonesian island but it's one of east timor island and it is call Atauro. And there's a lot of nice beaches and places to visit if you're lucky.
@@Jhon650 yeah, but they are part of ASEAN now, so as Indonesian I rather encourage them to progress and move forward, simply for the region, and they're our close neighbor anyway
@@CallieMasters5000different strokes for different folks i guess. There is a space for them all . SC seems to be genuinely enamored by aviation as where majority of reviewers are only interested in the onboard/ground product.
Some people don't have Sam's cheerful and personable personality. He is really happy he left finance and got a chance to experience all the unique aspects of aviation while people like Josh and that Swed guy are grumpy all the time
@@Peizxcvhonestly. If i want to see a “review” of something i watch Jeb Brooks , when i watch Sam it mainly comes across as as insightful because he shows way more about aviation than anyone else . And people only bitch and moan when he does anything with the ME3. He can do a behind the scenes with Air france or Azul and they are all quiet . He does the same thing with a Middle Eastern carrier and he’s instantly a sellout.
It one of my long life dreams to travel to every country Portugal has colonised. I'm sure some resentment might linger, but it fills my heart with joy seeing that one Portuguese trait has stuck: being friendly and happy. Love to all my Portuguese-speaking friends ❤
16:18 I would recommend using the seat belt, because - unexpectedly perhaps - even still with those sketchy airlines you are using, getting hurt in a regular traffic accident, is still one of the greatest risks when travelling.
It's good to see content like this - the vast majority of us will never get to fly on Aero Dili to East Timor, so thanks for taking us all along with you!
It's a right shame when such a lovely little country had to go through such a rough history. It could've been more to the likes of Singapore if they'd been left in peace. Hopefully they'll keep it up. Such lovely people deserve better.
You have to remember that this was the cold war and there were indications that the East Timor independence movement was viewed by the likes of the US and Australia as being tied to communism (which is why for example Australia tried to keep journalists out of the country and keep the Australian people from finding out what was really going on and why Australia were in favor of Indonesia taking control (because they saw the alternative as communists on our doorstep)
@@petesmart1983 Oil still makes world go round. And it's probably true they invaded because East Timor looked weak, having just gotten their independence. Otherwise they would've invaded, say, Norway, as well. But that would've been grave mistake. So to me it seems like a classic bully move.
Well another what i call another jolly video nice to go to a place and the locals are friendly thanks for sharing the delights of aero Dilli and the town of Dilli look forward to the nxt adventure 😀
70% bangunan di timorleste di buat oleh indonesia sebelum tahun 1999 dari jalan raya,bandara,pelabuhan,gedung pemerintahan dan fasilitas publik lainnya,semoga timorlesten makin maju
Bangunan nenek moyangmu udh di bumi hanguskan milisi dan TNI th 1999. Kamu tahu nggk ?? Setelah di tinggalkan Indonesia mayoritas warga Dili tinggal di bawah tenda. Jadi kita hrus memulai membngun kmbali kita Dili dr puing2 ... pelabuhan yg mna maksud elu yg di bangun Indonesia ? Pelabuhan Portugis sekrg hnya dipake utk kapal penumpang. Kita udh membngun pelabuhan bertaraf internasional di tibar. Waktu indonedia hnya mempunyai 1 bandara TPI sekrg Timor Leste mempunyai 3 bandara internasional bang. Jalan hotmix dg lebar 8 meter udh menghubungkan semua kabupaten. Jangan heran dg luas wilayah yg kecil dg populasi hnya 1,3 jt jiwa pemerintah Timor Leste menganggarkan $ 2,4 milyar (sekitar Rp 40 triliun) setiap tahun nya. Dan Alhamdulillah uang hasil minyak sebagian kita simpan di bank central Amerika dan udh mncapai USD 23 milyar dan tentu akan bertambah setiap tahunnya. Itu bru pendapatan dr satu titik explorasi minyak.. dan kita masih punya bnyak sumber minyak di laut dan di darat. Syukurlh dg perencanaan yg matang dg memperlebar jalan2 dan mngatur tata ruang Alhamdulillah dlm 20 tahun kota Dili jadi indah, aman dan damai 🥰🇹🇱❤️
Another great video from the far reaches of the globe. Those little kids were so amazing, even they know that your only 1 of 9 others who look like they are from out of town. They reminded me of kids from the 1960's when kids were allowed to play outside with other kids and have fun. The motel was nice and had that nice island vibe to it.
I frequently travelled to Dili back in 2005-2011 as part US Congress Inter Parliamentary program/funds to rebuild and support Timor Lest Parliament's library. I always preferred the Esplanada Hotel to the Hotel Timor, altough the later hotel is just 5 minutes walk to the Parliament building. Back then, the rooms in Esplanada were made from stacked 40ft containers. It looks much nicer now. I recalled there were no fridge, tv, water dispenser. Just the very basic: bed, aircon, table and bathroom. But I love the lounge/resto on the 2nd floor above the lobby. Good food and great view to the ocean.
@@schalitz1quite interesting that there’s not more of an Australian influence there given the history of Australia and East Timor. Australia is pretty much a pseudo protectorate of East Timor.
Noel, I have been to East Timor a handful of times from my time working for the US Navy. I would love to go back. Hope the Castaway is still open along Avenida Portugal, that was my favorite hangout. Everyone is so friendly and happy you are there.
Sadly timor leste is struggling economically and has shown by the mass poverty and malnutrition buts a beautiful place and people are warm and friendly despite hardships
My opinion as Indonesian: To bali yes why not its worthwhile in there especially in jakarta or puncak But timor leste, please dont even think about it, its not worth the money especially in dili
Way more generous than most US based airlines as far as food goes. Flights in the US under two hours might have a drink and a small snack and that is it.
Noel Phili goes silly on Aero Dili...another great video. Always interesting to get a review of an airline and to see part of the world that I'm fairly unlikely to see. I'm amazed Josh C's passport was posted online - surely that's a gross breach of privacy. Anyway everyone connected with the airline seemed very friendly.
Josh was right about the food served in Aero Dili but so far you are having a great time with the public relations part of it. We all know why, It's your wonderful personality!
I have to say, I have a funny feeling about Josh. Although the story posted by the airline was somehow weird, but I don’t know how to take Josh. He is a tad too often involved in weird situations for my taste.
Always wanted to visit East Timor, visiting somewhere where so few people have visited has always appealed to me. So whilst im often very jealous of you, im incredibly jealous right now 😂
I didn't catch how much the room was but when I visited a few times I always stayed at the hotel with the "mall" attached to it. It was $250-$300/night, much more plain but bigger in size. Your hotel seems more comfy.
Hey Noel, a silly question, how do you pick the places to visit? Especially these remote places like East Timor? Does RUclips assign it? Do you throw a dart at a map? Is it fan advice? Love it either way. ❤
I look for an airline, country, or type of plane I haven't been on & go from there. I put together a 2 or 3 week filming trip linking as many different things as I can.
The last time I saw Dili was during the troubles, as in IT contractor for one of the many non gov orgs working in the region, arrived on the HMAS Jervis Bay, flew out on a Canadian operated Hercules, but even then the locals were very friendly. Great to see them moving ahead, (was the bridge completed yet??)
16:57 The hotel manager always sleeping. Surprise he's awake upon your arrival 😂
Always enjoy when you show us a little bit of the destinations you fly to. Keep it up Noel.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@noelphilips Hey Nelle, East Timor is not Indonesia! They fought a war about that with the help of Australia.
The "offical Noel Philips East Timor meet n greet"😂❤ i love when RUclipsrs film their fans coming up and saying hi. Did you ever imagine you would have such a worldwide audience?!
Noel is most engaging.
Noel is the best by far !!
I've found Priority pass pretty useless as the lounge is always full so gave it up.

Thnks so much .mr Philips Obrigado..🇹🇱🇹🇱
21:54 The beautiful beaches of Dili, in East Timor. Such a lovely place. (In Background Garbages Beach). 🤭
The hotel looked fine to me. As long as things are clean and tidy. You had a TV, a mini-fridge, a desk, and a/c.
Yeah all I'd need...
Yeah I guess it wasn't up to Noel's usual standard of Hilton and Marriott 😅
Was thinking the same thing. That hotel was perfect. Much prefer to stay in places like this than the chain hotels.
It all depends on how much it costs.
Looks nice and clean for me (someone from southeast asia) probably a step down from a westerner who flies often
Noel must be sleep deprived. Teasing us with the mystery next destination at the end, having completely forgot he told us where he was going next half way through the flight....
Another cracking video.
He just wants to make sure that we're paying attention 😉
Heehee, I said that too 🌼😂 gotta love Noel, but yes I don’t know how he does it sometimes - it must get exhausting not to mention the constant jet lag. We appreciate him.

As somebody who did a report on East Timor for my International Law class this video and the fact that there's tourist coming here makes me so happy!
That’s so cool. What was your report about?
Been there 6 years ago, would love to go back it's a really interesting destination
Oh thats cool! What did you report on?
They forget to wash their butthole after defecating
Im sorry I thought I responded! It was about the genocide
Thank you for making the effort and supporting Timor-Leste. Great, lovely and kind people
The hotel was simple but it looked nice. I love how your videos take us to some pretty out of the way places!
Glad you like them!
Since you flew from bali i can see how contrast if we compared bali to dili. Dili is like way more underdeveloped than bali
Thanks for yet another wonderful video and review. Don’t let the haters get you down Noel 😅

This video a little different as it’s nice to actually see the place your flying to, really enjoyed this one Noel 😊
Thankyou for your visiting.
It’s really helpful for us to share my country’s with people to get to know well🙌🏼

Very enjoyable Noel! Nice to see Wollongong represented with the hotel owner! :D
Glad you enjoyed it!

Noel, why don’t you try to fly in Papua as you mentioned in your video? I’m looking forward to see your video onboard the plane there. Thanks.
I have, you can see that video on my YT channel here www.youtube.com/@noelphilips/search?query=Papua

Who the hell writes my man Noel hate mail. I love you man. You're my favourite
I mean it looks like a pretty awesome place if they could clean it up a little bit... Reminds me a lot of how Costa Rica used to be...
Definitely agree, especially with the proximity to Australia, they could probably do really well with tourism if they start putting more effort in.
@@schalitz1quite interesting that there’s not more of an Australian influence there given the history of Australia and East Timor. Australia is pretty much a pseudo protectorate of East Timor.
@@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606 what do you mean? Mind if you want to whole essay?
Noel, I have been to East Timor a handful of times from my time working for the US Navy. I would love to go back. Hope the Castaway is still open along Avenida Portugal, that was my favorite hangout. Everyone is so friendly and happy you are there.
Welcome 🎉🎉❤ Timor Leste
I knew you’d eventually fly AeroDili after what happened when Josh flew on it right?
Thank you for visiting my country east Timor sirr
Geez, I was with Jose and Fatima Gusmao in Darwin years ago. You have a famous name. Funu Sei Nafatin.
Sadly timor leste is struggling economically and has shown by the mass poverty and malnutrition buts a beautiful place and people are warm and friendly despite hardships
Unfortunately due to my Gov in Australia scamming the Timorese out of Gas/oil revenue, and also some dubious Timorese Gov infrastructure projects.
My opinion as Indonesian:
To bali yes why not its worthwhile in there especially in jakarta or puncak
But timor leste, please dont even think about it, its not worth the money especially in dili
Why?
Way more generous than most US based airlines as far as food goes. Flights in the US under two hours might have a drink and a small snack and that is it.
Yep great review once again, looked like a nice friendly cabin crew, lavvy a wee bit dodgy but I think as they grow they'll do well, cheers Noel
Thank you for visiting Timor Leste
Noel Phili goes silly on Aero Dili...another great video. Always interesting to get a review of an airline and to see part of the world that I'm fairly unlikely to see. I'm amazed Josh C's passport was posted online - surely that's a gross breach of privacy. Anyway everyone connected with the airline seemed very friendly.
Josh was right about the food served in Aero Dili but so far you are having a great time with the public relations part of it. We all know why, It's your wonderful personality!
Well, one is a normal friendly person, the other one is... different.
I must admit after Josh, I would not really have risked it if it had been anything but hot.
I have to say, I have a funny feeling about Josh. Although the story posted by the airline was somehow weird, but I don’t know how to take Josh. He is a tad too often involved in weird situations for my taste.
Great Video Noel❤Still Love the loo reviews and keep videos coming 👍👍❤️❤️
Always wanted to visit East Timor, visiting somewhere where so few people have visited has always appealed to me. So whilst im often very jealous of you, im incredibly jealous right now 😂
Well worth a visit beautiful place
@@petesmart1983 it’s on my bucket list for sure
I didn't catch how much the room was but when I visited a few times I always stayed at the hotel with the "mall" attached to it. It was $250-$300/night, much more plain but bigger in size. Your hotel seems more comfy.
Wonder video! I had never heard of Aero Dili before, very interesting to see what they are like.
The room looked fine, has air conditioning, a bed and indoor plumbing so that's all someone needs
expensive fare for untourist destination that's why nobody get on that flight.
The civilians of Timor Leste do
@@Enternamehere236 they're not tourists. 🤦
My grandmother turned 80 and is for the first time taking Business Class to Italy with her Boyfriend. I'm so happy for her! LOL
Yes see you on the next one. Safe travels Onward
Great video as always! Will you be flying to Greenland when Nuuks new airport opens? I'd be really interested to see it!
that airport reminds me of the airport in my town during my childhood. The vibe is so 1990s
Hey Noel, a silly question, how do you pick the places to visit? Especially these remote places like East Timor? Does RUclips assign it? Do you throw a dart at a map? Is it fan advice? Love it either way. ❤
I look for an airline, country, or type of plane I haven't been on & go from there. I put together a 2 or 3 week filming trip linking as many different things as I can.
Thank you so much for answering. 😊that is really cool. Can’t wait to see your newest project.
The last time I saw Dili was during the troubles, as in IT contractor for one of the many non gov orgs working in the region, arrived on the HMAS Jervis Bay, flew out on a Canadian operated Hercules, but even then the locals were very friendly. Great to see them moving ahead, (was the bridge completed yet??)
