Seems like you enjoyed! We are glad to have had you onboard and are excited for the future.
damn i have more subs than a airline crazy
nvm you arent the official airlines channel
i really hope SA can turn it back around. So does Qantas.
Until the airline gets privatized this airline will continue to be run by old people with old planes with old livery, vintage old seats and with an old workforce
SAA at some point had a350s in their fleet
@@tsebomoloi3410yea i was in one of them
As a South African I wasn't expecting much from our national carrier but damn this is impressive, steak on a 2 hour flight plus lounge access? Definitely worth it
You'll get lounge access in business class for any airline
@@idhantkrishnachari-rajagop1405to be fair we only had budget airliners flying domestically, since ComAir went bust.
THE TAXPAYERS paid for your steak dude. You can buy a whole cow for the price SAA charge.
@@bryancoulter5998Nope, they're privately owned now
@@idhantkrishnachari-rajagop1405US domestic flights?
that’s the lounge of dreams, great views especially at 3:47! great trip report as always
Most CPT lounges have beautiful views…unlike JNB where there’s just interior views (though it has two great land side tarmac viewing areas…one being a nice little museum😊)
Awesome vlog..thanks a lot for the great quality...
Nice Video. Thanks for posting.
Awesome video as usual Simply Avaition 🎉
Spectacular view from the Lounge😍😍😍😍😍
Fantastic! Long overdue. Great to be back!
Wow what a fantastic video!
That was a great camera view at 10:30 ....shadow of the plane taking off and into the sky.... great visual .........✈ 👍👍
Excellent!
Cool
Great flight.
Thank you sooo soo much for uploading this trip report! Ight suggestion : Port Louis (Mauritius) to Perth (Australia)
GEAT VIDEO
Woah
Finally my country's airline vlog ♥️Thank you 🙏
Finally!!!
Fantastic trip report Felix!😸
Awesome vid
Nice
Amazing video like always! Enjoy watching them😁
Keep making videos i like those videos simply aviation
I Have Experience A330-300 In Business Class I Like The Product.Great Trip Report
I DEFINITELY enjoyed this video. I should start saving money for next year for my possible holiday trip to Namibia not just for a holiday but to also visit my extended family too.
The view whilst eating dinner must have been an incredible experience!❤
Great video
One of my three favourite airlines, South African...
The food looks fabulous 😍
Had SA A320 this week in Economy on a 90 mins flight. Full meal service, great selection of drinks, real Business Class seats and a friendly and funny crew. Something, you won´t see in Europe these days. Hope, they find their way back.
I like the videos ❤ and i love traveling❤❤❤
Pristmangoode really created a beautiful interior for South African aircraft.
AmaZing South Africa 🇿🇦 Flight ✈️ Vlog 😊😊😊
The meal looks good! I hope SAA can return back to its glory days. Having a fleet of 11 is such a joke. Airlink has 65 planes and FlySafair with 34 😬
food Looked great…including that passion fruit cake!
It is not the service that is the problem but the "business itself" - A never ending tunnel of losses
I went on a 737-800 and the staff were so kind,the plane landed smooth like butter,i love SAA
That evening light at 13:30, we call it the golden hour. If your house faces north or west, your interior will be shaded in gold
Your dessert was Grenadilla (Passion Fruit) cake. Not Pineapple. Very Souf Efricen!
Cape Town, my city!!!
2:58 Felix face reveal 😁
Wait for you next video
We saw you there Felix! Gorgeous 🥰
nice
J'ai déjà voyagé en Afrique mais je désire d'y retourner!!
Very good channel, congratulations.
Thanks Felix for this great trip south Africa is really beautiful.....Hope to see you reviewing a Nigerian airline soon :D
Well, the product looks pretty good from this. Let's hope they can get back onto a firm footing.
Nice and precise reviews !
As always !
Nice report Felix what airline are you going to review next
There was a time when David/Felix used to write in the subtitles at the sound of the engine, "Music to my ears." 😊
I was waiting for it to appear at the roar of the engine, but it didn't appear... 😅
Good to see they're back, great vlog as always!
👌3:47
the business class seats look like a premium economy class seats.
Unbelievable
when you get the opportunity, please make a video about the direct flight from cape town to lusaka on proflight🙂🙂🙂
Sometimes I get very hungry during the flight but if I ever travel by plane I hope they serve food
I know it's business class, but still... that meal!
UGANDA AIRLINESS
Do you use star alliance milages?
They serve Lurpak butter \o/
Cape Town is the capital of South Africa while Johannesburg is a city is in South Africa 🇿🇦🌍.

air mauritius is so nice
Can u guys do Air Mauritius from South Africa to Mauritius SSR Intl Airport
U should do a trip report of Sun c from MCI to MSP please
Simply aviation please do the cebu pacific plane please!
15:40 I thought that clapping after landing is only Czech tradition 😂🤦
People who see the heart in the beach
Did anyone notice that at 4:45, on the tarmac, it's also saying the A300 and the A310 (ans other aircrafts that are out of service)
Glad to see SAA is returning.
My wish is for them to resume flights to Europe again.
Is SAA not privatised now?
Anyone know the name of Felix suitcase?
That post malone music is dope!
Well done SAA ... flying the South African spirit.
I am sure SAA will turn it around if the government take their fingers out of the trough.
Can anyone tell me why everyone was clapping at the end? I didn't understand what the attendant said.
She was saying that it was a very good landing
Is this the first time felix show (kinda) his face? Has he introduced himself in other videos before?
So happy SAA is going back to their world famous days :D (very slow but atleast we see progress!) Such a beautiful cabin... It's so different but represents Africa in a way!
At the taxpayers cost
@jjhout5988 At least our money goes to something like this (which is good) and not filling the ANC's pockets .
The trey table storage lining was filthy
was that a a319 -a320 4:48
😂❤😂❤
As a South African I've never flew with SAA 😂
They re so insignificant, don’t bother domestically
I am South African and I did not have a good time 😅
Why is the a320 the problem child?
No, is South African Airways.
Unfortunately, this airline is a shadow of its former self, just like the country. I was surprised to see that the airport had electricity. This isn't just me throwing shade, blackouts and load sharing are nowadays depressingly common over there.
I'm pretty sure areas where there are airports, hospitals, etc. Don't get affected by the power outages, correct me if I'm wrong though, it's been like a year since I've went to South Africa.
Had no shedding for Like three weeks
They probably have their own back up generators, for when problems might arise. I’ve been to CPT 3 times in the last 2 years and fortunately never experienced a black out…
thx very nice, not sure why some of your videos have subtitles rather than a commentary but the ones with spoken voice are much more vivid and interesting, and easier to watch.
I think the voiced ones are like specials
Voiced ones are brutally honest series, the ones with captions are tripreports
It's hilarious how backwards SA has gone
Ethiopian airlines from addis ababa to washington dc for follow pls pls their is no a blog like this pls be the first one simply aviation
Can’t wait till they get their a350s back and start international flights again
The A350s have been sold unfortunately
@@senabecool7232 i heard they'd get them back this year, they only got rid of them because they went bankrupt
Isn't there a direct flight to USA?
@@nic0072 pretty sure they went bankrupt, now theyre only doing domestic flights
SAA are reinstating the Jhb- SAO PAULO flight in a few weeks time...
why do you not eat that food
That aint business class. Thats busconomy class😂😂
On principle I would not fly this airline It was trashed and looted by ANC mismanagement. In 80’sand 90’s it was one of the best airlines in the world. You book your pay in advance and there’s no guarantee they will be around. Fly Safair is best inside S A
Lets hope we can bring back the glory days of SAA.
first
You're second.
Bro, are these tickets are real??
Steak on a 30 minute flight! On most short flights, you don't even get to see the cabin crew!
1 hour 30 minute flight.
No it's a 2hour flight. Please get it right.
2 hours not 30 minutes. Get real ! Is your geographical knowledge that bad??
Saa really needs to change their colour scheme. Lacks the classy look. Emirates premium economy and I'd argue economy looks and feels better and it boils down to layout and color scheme.
Saa fire your interior designers. They are not keeping up with trends. Spending money to go backwards
I like it, looks homely and luxury
People still clap after landings? How quaint.
The sale of SAA cost the country billions that money should have gone to fixing hospitals, roads, schools etc. The SA government has been fitting the bills for SAA while the new company bennifits from the sale. More money stolen from the poor people of SA.
Worse airline in South Africa - booked once, ticket was never registered, lodged a complaint, they refuse to reply... never got to fly with them and never will...
