After the Greyhound incident Noel deserves all the luxury.
I just Cringed remembering that video. Lmao 🤣😂.
@@gracielarojas3200 link? please
He deserves a lot after riding on that greyhound
@@andrewbrown5300 link please?
My guess is that one reason the flight was so empty is that it was pushed back by six hours. A lot of people don't have the flexibility to move their flight time so much on such short notice. Some of the people who were going to fly on that flight probably rescheduled to a flight that was leaving closer to their original time.
Brilliant point. Which leads one to wonder the reason for pushing the flight back by six hours. Such cumulative developments on a repeated basis could drastically jeopardise the new airline's chances of survival. One cannot help but wonder who's running the show, and whether the cause is incompetence at the top or something else. Adding the new stopover is the biggest question --- What financial motive could offset the losses. I wish everyone well and hope they sort things out.
Maybe they had to take it to the tailor to measure for half a meter taller sides and privacy dividers 😃😃
Seriously, reverse herringbone was invented for a reason and "feeling open" while being a fancy design concept is disastrous if people can regain privacy at a press of a button. Only Etihad would have money for that kind refit.
Good example for people to see how thinking and designing need to be connected - like on the neocortex level 😃😃
@@susanadiasjohnson457 Its an UAE based investment firm that just shuffles money into the airline... I don't have my hopes up for it to be honest.
im curious, how many pet gators do u have?
those workers at the check-in were fantastic
True, but I also got an eerie "Stepford" vibe from all but one of them - if you guessed the male flight attendant, you'd be wrong.
Agree just very Customer focused!
I know Zurich Airport. Unfortunately, if you fly economy, they are still friendly. But they have become rare. Customer does everything on his own. If there is a problem, you can wait 10 minutes because only one employee and what feels like 3 school classes, a baseball team, a soccer team, a traditional costume group and 300 individual customers check in at the same time 😮😮😮
Finding out Noel is 6’4” - 6’5” was the wildest part of the video to me.
Also, I just love how positive Noel is about everything. It’s a breath of fresh air.
Why us tall people generally refuse to fly budget airlines.
John Cleese height, basically.
Good lord, he’s giant lol
You don't notice it in videos all the time, but when he stands next to somebody- he's tall. FTR- he also did a circumnavigation flying only budget airlines. He did that so we don't have to .
Noel is definitely both tall and bald. Hard to miss.
“Chair” is the subsidiary airline of the car company SEAT. 🤣
😅
😮
🤣
😂 😂 😂
😂😂😂
$171 US was my room rate at same Waldorf Astoria and they upgraded my 3 night stay to a suite. Incredible Staff and incredibly clean.
The ladies checking in in Switzerland are very very kind helpful and well trained.....this is just amazing
Great to see you on the Westjet flight from London Gatwick to St. John's today, and best of luck with the Saint Pierre to Paris flight!
he has been betten on that flight review by steve marsh
I have had 3 arrivals and 3 departures from Zurich and have stayed at on of the airport adjacent hotels twice. Absolutely delightful. Bonus, a nice Coop grocery store in the airport.
Thank you Noel, for not putting "The worlds first all business class airline" like every other RUclipsr. Beond claiming that is just stupid and unneeded, the product is solid, for a couple heading to the Maldives it's almost perfect.
Drinking game: Take a drink every time Noel says "Thanks" or "Thank you" etc.
That's a recipe for alcohol poisoning
im drunk now 🙂
You am drunk I are
Thank you. I came here to post ,Thank you the same. Thank you. Also, thank you.
Or try with the word Dubai i think he says that more then thank you
I know the lovely check in agent, hope you enjoyed the flight from Zürich 🎉😊❗
Noel, do you ever get on a plane these days where somebody DOESN'T say "You're Noel Philips!"?
next time he should answer "I am?"
American air companies cannot comprehend this level of service.
Back 25 years ago, it used to be that good.
I wish I had the chance to fly in Pan Am.
Your Lamb Shank was Rack of Lamb,,, currently flying the A319ceo BEOND Livery, beautiful ✈️
correct - better than the fatty shank
@deesalkelly3069 yeah, I think they were trying to impress him , though it went unnoticed lol
Yeah, that "lamb shank" call was weirding me out when cutlets/rack were pictured.
@@deesalkelly3069 Different ... not necessarily better ...
WOW! I think Beyond are beyond amazing. There’s something about the vibe here I love. The airport experience, service, aeroplane, ambiance, etc.. love it!
Love the airline! Great Job Noel! Looking forward to seeing the next video! Safe Travels Brother!
Looks amazing, love these types of reviews, I’d say that 90% of people who are watching this didn’t even know who beyond were before the video so it’s great see some of these less well known airlines
Agree, I kinda wanna try Beyond to the Maldives now.
At least once to let em have the chance - My GF HATES longterm flights (cant sleep) so getting her in Business for once would make everything a ton easier.
I daresay hardly anyone knows of this new airline that has 1 plane. Noel kind of has the scoop on it!
That was one lucky leg of your trip! Every flight I manage to book is packed solid featuring the most overworked crew in the skies. I love this concept of all business seats, I will happily pay a bit more for it, and I will absolutely be searching it out next time I travel!
WOW! What as experience with everything on this video. The flight, the deserted airport and the hotel room, all so beautiful. Thanks for this Noel, and please, no guilt in taking time off during work times ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the views from the lounge in Zurich!😍 BEOND looks like an amazing airline. I hope they survive and become really successful
Looks like a lovely plane and airline. Very friendly staff too!
Minging! We’re keeping the word alive Noel! I REALLY like the airline and of course the efficiency and friendliness of the staff. Not surprising with it being Swiss. All looks a-ok and another fantastic video Noel, I love ‘em, as you know. Nice one mate! 👌🏻
Boy, does this make up for them Greyhound trips. Well deserved!
Noel! Enjoy every minute of life you can-- more power to you if it's while you're working!
1:05 I wonder if Chair Airlines will be opening a new Scandinavian airline ✈️ …perhaps IKEA sponsored lounges?😂 *Aircraft seat assembly included*💺👍
Our most empty flight, my wife and I and another couple with a baby that slept all the time from Istanbul to Dublin. Never been first off a flight before
You should have let the couple with the baby off first
6:21 what a legend lol
10 other passengers and it’s surprising that he was recognized
Looks like an enjoyable flight and the hotel looks beautifully stylish.
Beond looks like a nice little airline indeed. Checking out that new airport in Dubai is an extra treat. Thanks as always for sharing, Noel!
Even I felt like the biggest celebrity when the other passengers recognized you! And I am not Noel Philips .... That must've been such a proud moment for you!
Love this concept. How amazing were all the ground crew & check in.
Happy Father’s Day Noel! This was a great video. I hope you enjoyed yourself on this trip. It looked more relaxed than other places and flights you’ve been on. Dubai is definitely on the bucket list.
How fun. You deserve to be pampered !✈✈🥇
Noel I believe that the airline is actually CH Air, CH is the code for Switzerland 🇨🇭. If I remember correctly it’s shown in two different colours Blue and Red to separate it so it’s not seen as Chair.
No the airline called Beond. Trying to get pax from Munich but at the beginning of the year, the luxury holiday airline cancelled eleven Male flights from Munich and Zurich. Now Beond is putting the brakes on even more and is removing the airport in the Bavarian capital from its flight schedule for the summer, as the portal Touristik Aktuell first reported, citing a customer message.
"Beond will temporarily suspend flights from Munich to Malé for the summer season, which begins on March 10, 2024," a Beond spokesperson confirmed.
@@CREOLESCREAM he’s talking about the airline Noel was referencing in the beginning of the video, not the airline he flew on
@@lunamotocross Thanks I appreciate that I should have been clearer.
Their web site uses "Chair Airlines", so I guess that's how they want it to be pronounced?
No its really Chair....
Wow! Such amazing deals and fantastic flight and hotel stay. You really lucked out on this one.
I need to re-watch to do a 'thank you' count 😁. Great video Noel, wish people were as polite as you.
The positivity and respect you have for others present karma that results in unique experiences like this for you.
Enjoy them, take them in, and keep being you.
Beyond look superb,definitely one to try,cheers Noel another great video👍😉💪
Great video Noel. I love the empty airport, such a rare thing and a massive contrast to just about any other city airport, enjoy it while you can lol. I loved the plane, not seen seats like that before, thank you for taking us with you on another fun journey. Also, you have every right to enjoy your work, we as viewers love to see you excited about things, so please don't feel guilty, your enjoyment is our enjoyment.
Brilliant Noel! Was waiting for you to talk about Be0nd from Zürich!
Wow amazing from the staff, food, quality...and that hotel wow! Great vid Noel.
Glad you enjoyed it
Well done Noel in finding the unusual airlines and like you most impressed with the whole experience and the compensation was a bonus. Well done sir!! Blue skies as always.
Glad you enjoyed it
What lovely staff and the airport is nice!
Great video Orel the hotel looks comfortable u lucky man 😀
The fancy aluminum bag is the best . I'm happy you have the security it offers you. I've watched the video of the show that bag. Waterproof and bug proof.
Love how often you say thank you
Great vlog as always! This is the future of C-class flying. Smaller aircraft and point to point. Keep up the good work. Be safe!
I enjoy the amenity kit because of the bag and not what's inside. American started using cardboard boxes with the same old stuff inside. I used to keep the kits and I left mine on the plane the last couple times.
Noel, I laughed harder than I should have at the 23:08 comment about the bag. After this week in IT, I don't blame you for getting out either! You really got lucky on this trip :)
Very nice. Thank you.
That’s pretty wild! Wow, I can’t believe how empty both airports were! Lucky you, great video, don’t think I’ll be using that airline though. Thanks for sharing
Extremely nice, luxurious flight. Everything top shelf.
So glad to have seen you ... and seen you in such a wonderful place .... after just watching your across-the-US-on-Greyhound...oh, my goodness
As long as the loo is clean. And I'm watching your videos to see someone traveling and having a great time.
It's almost you were flying on a larger private jet with min passengers, that food looked yummy too!., awesome flight review Noel👍✈
This was “beyond” experience. It looked very comfortable. It was an awesome experience being in an empty airport. Never felt that before 😂Dubai is bucket list destination for me. Enjoy your trip Noel & Happy Father’s Day. Be safe & Blessings on your journey.
That would freak me out if I was the only one who got into a deserted airport, definitely creepy for me too
Another wonderful adventure. Thank you Noel.
Glad you enjoyed it
I love the colour of that aircraft, cant believe its an old Easyjet Airbus A319, another cool vlog , really liked that Noel 👍✈️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks again for your review. You gonna go down in history man. lol 10 years from now will have your poster on the wall/mural
You One The Best Seats In The Cabin.Great Video And Info
I really like this airline ❤ the staff were just lovely too 😊
Thanks for another great voyage. You've brightened up my day 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@noelphilips ;)
You do deserve it!by the way-your longhaul trip across America on a bus was hilarious and my favourite! 😂
Glad you enjoyed it!
I've watched loads of your videos Noel and I just love them! There's only one little thing missing though: you almost never sample the wines you're offered on board and report back to us on them....I hate you for that, dude LOL !
Watching another great Noel video with a cup of coffee, cheers! Happy Father’s Day! ❤🛩️🌎☕️
“If you’re a baby and you’d like to have a seat”
😂😂
as always i enjoyed the flight thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Lovely Video again, thanks Noel.
Glad you enjoyed it
Blessings on Father's day Noel You are a good dad.
Thank you for your kind words.
WOW AND WHOA 😳😮!!! THAT IS ONE BEAUTIFUL PLANE....INSIDE AND OUT ❤❤❤❤❤. I'D DEFINITELY FLY WITH THEM 👍😁. THE FOOD LOOKED SOOOOO GOOD. YUM 😋🤤
Thanks for the video, Noel. This is the third Beond review I have watched and they have a fabulous product. It was hot and steamy in Dubai when tourism is at its lowest which explains the inactivity at the airport and sleeping/getting an upgrade at the Waldorf for a bargain. You definitely won't get that during the tourist or horse racing season, you won't even get into the Waldorf because all 5-star hotel rooms get sold out during the horse racing season.
Great flight for the most part. I wish the seats were more private, wider. I wish yourself and your family, to have a wonderful life. Thanks for the report-
The A319 used to earn its keep as G-EZEA of EasyJet - Great review as always ... Cheers !
4:00 love how she says WHYYY FIIIIIYYY 😂
Absolutely LOVE the shirt you wearing! Haha
Blimey! what an incredibly amazing business class...lucky you Noel, brilliant review as always, I fancied everything and also that gorgeous hotel. Cheers mate
Many thanks!
The Waldorf 😊 i remember your hotel in Havre Montana 😮
Do you need to see a tag? 🤣 Noel is the only dude in the entire airport. A cool airline concept though. I might give them a try on my next DBX trip.
Wow what a nice and roomy setup!!
Also having only 11 people on the flight is quite rare nowadays!!
Seems like a nice airline!!
Both the flight and hotel look amazing.
That was a good check in experience 👍
What an upgrade Noel - Enjoy the stay.
So enjoyed this video Noel, a return to the adventurous side of air-travel and something brand new, as opposed to all the other travel vloggers flying and repeating the rather boring First and Business Emirates-Qatar-Etihad rotatons, which we've seen too many times, great fun, thankyou!
JOJO SIWA 🤣 Noel u got me cackling
A good, honest review. Definite result with the upgrade. Loved the comment about being a 'Northerner', I'm sure the citizens of Lancashire and Yorkshire would disagree :) From a fellow Nottinghamshire resident, keep up the good work!
Yeah what's with that?!
Welcome to Dubai! It's the best time to come, you can probably get it much cheaper in a couple days. It's currently "Eid Al Adha", which ups the prices a bit but then they drop to ridiculous low rates due to the summer.
Ahhh, Zurich Airport. making my way in for a Schengen departure to find two floors for check-in and kiosks(?) randomly assigned. Looks like a good flight.
It’s like they took the loo from another plane 😂 the rest was super. Thanks Noel. 🏖️☀️✈️
Luv all of ur vids
I would definitely fly with them. I am claustrophobic and usually sit bulkhead, but that set up is nicely spaced out.
Wow! What a great hotel room! Super!
Excellent flight Noel!
Glad you enjoyed it
21:48 got stranded at this airport for 15 hours when the Dubai floods happened earlier this year; no open vendors for food and my 1 year old didn’t have a meal 20 hours. Thanks for bringing back those horrible memories Noel 😂
I just subscribed. You’re keeping me so entertained during my late night feedings of my newborn
Thank you & Welcome aboard.
Happy father's day Noel!☺️👍
Thank you! 😃
How do Noel? Beyond are giving off swish vibes, what with that new plane aroma. Enjoy and look after yourself!
Noel please do more hotel reviews!
This year at LAX, I arrived a bit early at the airport for my flight to Munich, so my family and I scrambled around the airport for a lounge, then I remembered the airline I was flying with, Lufthansa, is a star alliance member, so we were able to check into the star alliance lounge. They had amazing food there, especially their fresh fruit and complimentary chocolate cupcakes.
