    Thanks for letting me travel virtually with you, Josh. I'm temporarily grounded because I had a heart attack a fortnight ago, so my doctors have me under "house arrest." I may be allowed to start travelling again in the spring, domestically, then hopefully internationally. Your travels make me happy and keep my mind occupied, so ta very much.

  • @wombatwood4681
    @wombatwood4681 4 года назад +14

    Have just returned from Europe flying VNA Business class
    On the way over the crew were very friendly but hopeless
    On the way back they were excellent, like you said, it depends on what crew you get.
    Food was good, seats comfy and I found enough to watch on the IFE
    For $8,400 AUD for 2 of us return from Australia, with stopover in Hanoi on way back makes it a great choice 👍

    I've been a sky team member for nearly a decade and only fly with Vietnam airlines. They're a fantastic airline, not to mention their amazing onboard services. I strongly believe, as well as many other of their loyal customers, that their old fashioned and way behind time. It's time to upgrade to the airbus A380 introducing new first-class cabin. Do anyone else agree with me?

    • @khanguyen4868
      @khanguyen4868 4 года назад +2

      Chee Tang no, first class is not necessary

    • @AA-sg2py

      And A380 is terribly inefficient.

    • @duongnhdn
      @duongnhdn 11 месяцев назад +1

      Hey cheetang, I can tell you this, as a mostly states owned airlines, VNA cant make significant changes without the approvals from our governments. Everybody knows they have to change, they just dont have the authority to do it, yet.

    Hey Josh, love your content and your honest reviews........not like some others that are simply just sell outs to the airlines so they can get complementary everything!!
    One thing I urge to fix is the sound on your videos........it is either too low or it then suddenly comes through way too loud. I hope there is a solution.
    Loving your work, keep it up!!

    • @lukesolly531
      @lukesolly531 4 года назад +3

      I have flown with them to UK. Good product for the price. Just make sure you get a one connection flight as some options have 2 stops which involve visas transferring to domestic which isn't fun at all. China Airlines I flew recently was much better and same price range via Tiepai

      What he means is that the luggage shelves are tucked more into the upper sides of the aircraft, rather than directly above your head. That way it gives the aircraft a more roomy feeling above your head.

    Hei Josh! I almost feel like leaving a running comment. I lived and worked in Vietnam from 1999-2004. Worked for an NGO, so flew a lot. Stayed away from international in those days. Wonderful to see how much VNA has changed! There were Ilyushins still operating late 90s!!

    • @thumtlnguyen3626
      @thumtlnguyen3626 4 года назад

      Back then, Vietnam airlines were nothing but nepotism and corruption. Flight attendants had to bride for their jobs and they were not properly trained let alone their command of foreign languages. The airlines changed when Japanese investors bought their shares. Old Soviet planes are not used for domestic and international flights. They're still used in military services or not I don't know.

    @226union Год назад +2

    Thanks Josh. I am about to book my annual flight from Frankfurt to Melbourne in October with Vietnam Airlines. Your review always seems so down to earth to me and I really look forward to them. I had heard some good things about Vietnam Airlines but, as you said, the fare is about one third of Qantas price and it seems that the service is not one third of Qantas standard. I'm a loyal Aussie, love to support our national carrier when I can, but, they have priced themselves out of the market for me now. Also, I am always looking for alternatives to flying via any of the middle east carriers. They are also out of the price range for retirees like me who live in Europe but want to get back to Australia every year. I can no longer justify the price difference.

    Good review. I'd like to think you're more highlighted mention of the baby change table was due to one of my previous comments, but I'm far too modest to think that 😉. There are other things you could ask about and not even film but mention, such as if they have a children's choice of meal, or what "amenities" they provide (colouring books, crayons, souvenirs etc). Only suggestions, don't think I'm bossy 😆

    @l3v1ckUK 4 года назад

    That popular design of reverse herring bone seat. I've always wondered why they don't do it as herring bone. That way the passenger would be next to the window, and further from the Isle for more privacy. Just remove the plastic shroud from the seat and there'd be nothing obstructing the window. The storage compartment would be between the passenger and the isle, giving privacy without the need for the gimmicky door that BA introduced.

    I love your reports. I have been watching many of them over the last few days. I only have one critique my friend, on some of your reports the volume is very muted, or not consistent. Maybe your microphone is not in the same place? I love how you go the ME a lot. Do you think you're treated any differently than some of the other AV Geeks that report? Say vs Sam Chui? Maybe because you're caucasian and you do look different? Just curious. One of the things I love about your reporting is, that there's equal parts in business class as there is on coach. Some AV Geeks only report in business class. Keep up the good work.

    flown with them before.. found it a little bit cramped for a larger fellow like me.. if they took out one row and spaced it out a touch more and took out maybe an inch or two of the side next to the window it would be perfect.. for bigger framed/stockier people its a little cramped.. found the staff very friendly.. better than Bamboo Airways actually..
