Keeping the English tradition of whinging pom alive lol
Haha of course 😉
Long flights like this are a right of passage for any Australian or coming to Australia! Let’s just say you get used to it
Totally agree. Been to and from Heathrow 5 times so far in my life. 6th in 8 days. Cheers from Melbourne 🇦🇺.
Okay, well i hope you enjoy your holiday, defiantly want to come back in the summer
go up to north Queensland from brisbane in a motorhome.
Stop off along the way, end in the whitsundays then fly back from Cairns, well worth doing and get to see so much more stopping at different points along the way.
Not now, considering most immigrants come from Asia now and not Europe.
I did that Qantas flight from Melbourne to UK via Perth, return in 2019. But I upgraded to premium economy. Being 6 foot tall, I was so happy I did. Seats were wider and heaps of leg room…. And meals were from business class. Like you Rob, I can’t sleep on planes. As long as you go to bed at a normal time, you’ll be fine.
We did look at the premium economy seats on the way in with jealousy 😉. Luckily we have not suffered from jet lag at all - I think staying awake so long forced us onto Melbourne time!
@@CharlieandRob apparently moving forward in time, you’re less likely to get jet lag. But going back in time, like when you fly back to London….the jet lag….UGH!
@@donnachatterton1639 100% agree, I live in Australia and heading to the UK/Europe kills me for 2/3 days, whether in economy or even in business class, but coming home I can adjust fairly easily.
I have done the Australia - UK long haul 5 times..once with a toddler and then again with an 8 year old. It's a long trip!!
Very looooong!
Oh, I've so been waiting for this. So thrilled to have you both here. Hope everything is going well so far x
Welcome to Australia you two. I hope you really enjoy the visit.
Welcome guys!!! Enjoy Melbourne and the rest of your stay. Can't wait to see your vids...
Thank you! Loving it so far!
Long haul flight of 20 plus hours not bad. Better than 3 months in a sailing ship.
Haha yes better than the transport for the original English visitors!
Ha! Your face Rob when trying your food is one of the best reactions ever, you didn't even need to say anything, your expression said it all! Aww...Charlie is so sweet. It makes me want to travel again watching people fly.
He's very dramatic eh? 😉
@@CharlieandRob Rob the drama Queen lol.
@@CharlieandRob The expression was brilliant. Felt like I was watching Mr Bean where he does not talk but by his expression you knew what he was thinking.
hi Rob & Charlie, welcome to Oz! I really enjoyed this vlog, now you know what Aussies go through when we fly to the UK (or US)! 3 hours waiting at Heathrow? Time to explore every square inch of the airport that I possibly can. ✈✈ Onto the plane. Little leg room, barely enough room to move your feet around. Cannot sleep on planes either.
Oh the hot meals on the plane... what a reputation. Dinner at 4pm, breakfast at 2am. Some foods are not meant for planes. To some extent it is a function of the food quality at the origin airport.
The little things like the headphones and the entertainment system if they come across a little cheap or not up to scratch. To top it off, delays. Not surprised that you were delayed with Qantas.
When I have flown to the UK usually have flown with Singapore Airlines or Emirates. Yes you stop one or twice but I appreciate stretching my legs around the terminal. I have even slept at the airport transit hotel so I can shower and rest. It also feels nice to be part of Asia even if is just temporary.
On your way home you will follow the day around or the night around the world. Coming to Australia it is flying into the day, into the night, into the day again.
Hope you both enjoy your holiday down under. Enjoy the footy!!
I only fly Qantas. Love the experience. 👋🏻 from Melbourne. ✈️
In-flight food really so bad, or is our perception of it just a little off? As it turns out, there’s a scientific reason why food is less savoury at 30,000 feet. Once at altitude, the combination of the dry air and pressure change reduces our taste bud sensitivity. In fact, our perception of saltiness and sweetness drops by around 30 percent at high altitude.
I take my own food wherever possible HATE plane food
Rob flying long haul is exactly like me flying long haul... the lack of sleep and the cramped nature means that every hour feels like five, and all you want to do is arrive and get to that hotel! 😆 Ah... the romance of travel.
I remember doing a 28 hour Syd - UK flight, when there were no entertainment screens at all, and the smoking section started in the row right behind me. Have a great time! xo
ps - did you see the news, someone was just killed by a kangaroo - be careful (and of course put vegemite behind your ears to keep the drop bears away! )
Rob, Come on man, get into the groove, you are on holiday, relax and get excited. Are you doing your version of a whinging Pom? Think about the fun times ahead.👍🏻😀
I might as well play up the stereotype
Enjoy today Rob and Charlie the weather is beautiful today in Melbourne
Welcome to the travelling world of every Kiwi and Aussie who wants to go to the Northern Hemisphere! It’s well worth paying extra to get a bulkhead seat in Economy for such a long flight. I worked for Qantas for 12 years and man, do I miss those warm garlic butter rolls! Yes, cabin crew get exactly the same meals as Economy. I would’ve consumed hundreds of them! Looks like the menu hasn’t changed a bit since I left 5 years ago 😂 If the meat was fatty I presume you can blame the poor quality UK beef 😉?
Oh the joys of travelling - it will get better. Thanks for the ride
Welcome to Australia, glad you made it. Happy that Melbourne put on some good weather for you 😀
Well the first day was a bit cold! 😜
Maybe when you're in Melbourne you could visit the State Library of Victoria where Ned Kelly's armour is.
Forget Melbourne, or anywhere in Vic. Tas should be on your to do list first!
Sounding a bit whingey there mate, but I guess those sought of trips are testing 😀
First time long haul was definitely a test!
Sort
Welcome to Melbourne Charlie & Rob… ashamed about the delay. In Japan a Virgin flight recently had been delayed for 4 days with passengers not able to leave the airport - so 4hrs I guess is not too bad.
Enjoy your travels around Melbourne today… the weather is good… sunny ☀️ 18C which is about average for spring. But then we have a few days of cold and rain.
Have fun in Sydney for the match… hoping for a Swans / Geelong GF… go Cats!
Pretty sure it was Jetstar and it has happened a few times in the last few weeks
At least the delay was for safety reasons! That's a plus I suppose
How exciting! We would love to visit Australia one day! Enjoy and we look forward to seeing more videos!
Welcome to Australia, and congrats on reaching 1K subs.
We do actually need heating in the south east of the country, as it does get really cold, for a country that is known for hot weather.
Thank you! We haven't used the heating but we were shocked by how cold it was yesterday!
All a matter of perception. Gets quite warm here in Melbourne. Love the weather. Never live anywhere else. ☀️
After checking our dairies I've just realised that we've done 48 beyond Australia Long Haul Flights since (diary began) 1980. Enjoy Charlie and Rob.
Wow that's a lot, you have done a lot of travelling!
I’ve done that flight 8 times from the age of 4 to 40. Doesn’t get any easier when your in economy lol have a great trip guys 👍🏻
I guess it got us here (just not as fast as we hoped 😂)
@@CharlieandRob
I did a flight back to Australia from Costa Rica via New York, LA and finally Melbourne. The wait between New York to LA was probably as bad as your one from Perth to Melbourne. Although I was not prepared for the cold weather in New York, it was minus something there. When back to Melbourne about a day and half later it was about 40 in summer so I had felt -15 in their winter to 40 here at Melbourne airport. There was a 10 hour wait between flights at LA. I literally paid well over 100 for a 4 hour sleep in a motel as I was just too tired and wanted sleep and hanging in the airport for 10 hours would have done my head in.
Sounds like Charlie had some sleep on your flight but you virtually none. That would have been tough.
The flights are all part of the experience. You must have lots of travel and flight pointers. 😊
Ah, the joys of international travel! 😀
Ive done London to Melbourne twice and planning a 3rd trip. I always book the flight to arrive in Melbourne early morning, around 6am if I can, I find it much easier to sleep before you arrive then.
i did a long haul flight to the US in May and made sure to book seats behind the bulkhead best decision ever for the little bit of extra legroom,
Welcome to Australia. I can't sleep on planes so we always do a stop over with a decent down time. Then we can book a day room, sleep, shower and change clothes thereby ensuring less disgusting. I hope your brief time in Melbourne was good and set you up for your return
How good are day rooms!!
Just stumbled upon this video. Was thinking of taking this 787 MEL - PER - LHR flight. Thanks for your honest opinion. Welcome to my home town!
Unless you are wanting to stop off and spend time in Singapore (for example, on the way for a few days), I would definitely suggest doing this route - it's long and cramped but in our opinion the quicker you get there, the longer you have at your destination!
@@CharlieandRob I've flown the AUS - UK kangaroo route via Singapore many times. Was hoping for a quicker hop to LHR without a massive transit. Looks like you had a lengthy wait in Perth due to techie issues. Hope you're enjoying Melbourne. Looking forward to your next video.
Oh my goodness! I’m so excited for you guys and so jealous that ur going on a holiday, even if it’s to my own country 😆 hope you have lots of fun there’s so much to do here!
We are loving it so far!
@@CharlieandRob what have u done so far? Any food or shopping?
Welcome to Australia guys
Oh Rob stop complaining about the airline food. If you don’t like it then don’t eat it. Consider yourself lucky you got any food like some airlines. Charlie seemed to like hers. Enjoy your holiday.
I can tell you now...she didnt
Bloody whinging Poms 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@CharlieandRob wdym she didnt, she literally said it’s quite nice😭
@@danandrews2142 initially yes, but after she realised it wasnt great!
Haha was coming here to say the same thing!
You are such a winging Pom lol!
Haha got to live up to your stereotype
@@CharlieandRob only joking 🙃
@@CharlieandRob hope you have a fantastic holiday and be good 😊
Welcome guy's, glad you arrived safely. 😃
Thank you! Loving it so far! Just on our way back to the airport, to catch a flight to Sydney! ✈️
Welcome to Australia. Hope you enjoy your time here. Lots of great places to explore.
Can’t wait for the next vid! Welcome to my home city, hope the weather behaves for you guys ❤️
Next video coming on Saturday ☺️
Those long haul flights are a killer. When I first flew to London from Melbourne in 1981, the trip including two stops, took 27 hours. Nightmare! Enjoy your stay.
Wow that's a long trip!
@@CharlieandRob
Would've been a 747 back then and more stops means more chances to stretch the legs.
It's a lot easier on the outgoing flight than it is when you're going home ;) going home always feels twice as long, Melbounre has turned on a perfect weather day for you today 14/9/22 👍
Yes the weather today has been lovely! Was nice to see the sun out shining! ☀️
@@CharlieandRob It's well and truly gone now. I think it was only a few hours of sunshine, just enough to put washing of clothes on line and almost dry by 5-30pm before it rains again. Curious how your museum trip went. I think I going to that on Friday night before the footy. Not seen it since I was a kid.
Melbourne has great weather, yes. Today was true Spring weather for my home city. Cheers to you. 🇦🇺
Rob: no need for the heater we're in Australia.
Next morning in Melbourne: 2°C
Tuesday was so cold in Melbourne!!
^^ This is the same guy that made fun of us when we said it was cold in Melbourne
@@honkros haha I was shivering yesterday morning
I can't say that I don't miss this, because I actually do! I do feel your pain about how long it is, but I was way too excited when I got there. My flight went from Omaha - Denver - Los Angeles - Auckland[1] - Melbourne. I was tired, but wide awake and excited when I got there, because I got in in the morning in Melbourne, which would have been mid-afternoon the previous day in Omaha, but it was such a rite of passage, as it was my first trip ever on my own, and first international trip.
there's so much to do there, and so much that I miss, so I am definitely envious of you being there, so enjoy that well deserved trip!
[1] I accidentally missed the hall to the in transit area, and went through the door to customs, thereby entering New Zealand, when I didn't have a visa for New Zealand at that time. Thankfully airport security took pity on me and let me back through, as it was only a refuel and defumigation stop!
Glad you arrived safely guys. I hope the weather is kind to you and you get to do all the things you have planned. We might see you in Adelaide but it sounds like you will only have a few days here now. Have a great holiday.
Going to definitely try and do a meet up in Adelaide whilst we are there! The weather yesterday was very chilly - was a bit of a shock 😂
When you live in Australia you get used to long flights, cramped conditions ( we call economy cattle class) and bad food. We just keep our thoughts on the destination. Stay positive and smile 😊 your in Australia.
To be fair the Melbourne to Sydney hour flight was nice and simple!
“Blueberry muffin which is the smallest muffin I’ve ever seen”. Lol, it occurs to me that they don’t want lots of people overeating on a plane - they might all need to throw up at the same time.
Thanks for making this video. I was toying with doing a long haul flight but you’ve confirmed my thoughts about them. I always stop over for a couple of days in Bangkok or Singapore or Saigon or Tokyo. I’ll ignore the marketing hype and continue doing that.
When I travelled to Turkey from Australia, I was with my sister and a friend. We had to stop in Singapore for 5 hours before flying on to Turkey. It took about 26 hours all up. I watched the plane logo on the display and kept an eye on the altitude and which country we were flying over etc. In the way home weeks later, I really enjoyed seeing the edge of Australia coming into view; it was beautiful seeing the coast of Broome and then seeing the desert and Uluru. It was amazing. I know you guys are back home now. Keep your good memories of Australia. Hope you get another chance to visit😃 I would dearly love to see England and Wales; where my anscestors came from so long ago🤗 Cheers🌏🪐🍀🌕🙏🌸🇦🇺🦋👣🦉🏡🌴❤️❤️❤️
Gday rob and Charlie did you bring an empty suitcase for cherry ripes and other foods
Lots of room, don't worry 🤣
That’s good
My mate and I flew out to Australia with BA back in 1992 with an open ticket and 1 year working holiday visa omg one of the best years of my life .
We didn’t Even have any proper plans just a night booked in a crappy motel in Bondi . What an exciting journey we were on , had a ball and loved everything about Australia. Desperate to return one day !
We're currently on the plane heading there now for the second year in a row. Bloody love it in Aus!
@@CharlieandRob that’s a coincidence lol, it’s funny me my brother and our partners had planned to go last month but it just never happened, the friend I traveled to oz with in 1992 stayed and has recently retired at 54 years of age luck sod, I’m meeting him in a couple of weeks in London. For a catch up
Have a great trip I’ll be looking out for your posts 👍
If you’re flyng QANTAS on the way back home as well, ask for extra bread rolls and some butter. I was still hungry after my dinner and asked the steward if there was any more bread. He brought me three more and some butter pats! Also good to save peanut butter, jams and Vegemite items you can get in flight or at cafes etc., they can come in handy.
Next time you fly between UK to Australia look at Emirates, Qatar Airways or Singapore Airlines. You will be on the A380 which offers more space/legroom and comfort in the economy cabin. Also food is much better 👌🏿
Qantas isn't really a good choice especially on those long haul trips.
Ahhh my friends that conundrum of leaving or coming too Oz when you hit that west coast and realise you still have many hours to go until your trip ends......if anyone invades this place....good luck......hope all is transpiring as the ever resourceful Charlie has organised, if you get a free day come up to Coburg...I still owe you a beer
Yaaaay!! Welcome to Oz!! I hope you have an epic time here!!
😂😂😂😂 loved the faces you pulled Rob for the meal 😂😂😂
Lol. I've always enjoyed meals on flights. People look at me as if I'm crazy when I say that. Maybe it's because it breaks the journey a little.
I much preferred all the yummy snacks they kept bringing round!
Hot meals are great..and very enjoyable....
We have done this trip a few time Perth to London. The best advice is to chose premium economy. Sometime you can upgrade from Economy or otherwise pay the extra if you can.
Welcome to our fine shores, guys. I've done several long hauls (to the States) snd they are definitely not pleasant. The food can be a bit rough, but I've never had anything that was totally inedible.
We've definitely made up for the rubbish plane food by eating lots of great food in Melbourne so far!
Your journey was super dear Charlie..Given very good explanation about your tour..
Best wishes to you and your dear life partner ..
Thank you dears both of you ..🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I hope you got grand final tickets,the MCG atmosphere is 100 times as intense as the SCG,,
You will get goosebumps
Good to see the whinging Pom is alive and well, if there is nothing to complain about find something. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Enjoy the land down under. 👍👍👍👍
Haha yep! A 4 hour delay was not what we needed!
Mate, international air travel is a miracle. Quit your whinging. Welcome to Oz.
Thanks great vlog I enjoyed seeing how your flight went.
Lol we are in Australia you don't need the heater on it was 2degs this morning
We couldn't believe how chilly I was yesterday but today was nice!
@@CharlieandRob yes it was a very nice day I hope you got out and saw a lot of Melbourne
Welcome hope your having a good time so far
Welcome to our beautiful country ❤️ you're going to love it even in Melbourne
Thank you! We are loving it so far!
What do you mean? Even in Melbourne? 😁
Enjoy your stay in Australia guys. Soak it all in.....before you know it, you'll be heading back home....Hope you get to catch up with some subscribers too!
8:06 There's good ol' Bob wishing he could sail the sees with his dearest Debera
haha
🔹️ So you stopped off in Perth on your way to Melbourne. Took a while for me to work that out, but it finally clicked 👀👍❗
Qantas flight 10 (787-9 direct Perth then Melbourne)
Great video Rob and Charlie not surprised the food was not the best on the flight
No I guess we shouldn't have been surprised either 🤣. Good job they had lots of snacks!
And today I believe you’re leaving warm sunny Melbourne to go to Sydney for some footy game in a few days. 😀 enjoy
Just been round MCG and now heading to South Melbourne market. Leaving for Sydney on 8pm flight
@@CharlieandRob I hope you both have the best time in Sydney. Pity I'm not well or I'd happily meet up and offer to show you around.
I flew from Melbourne to Germany in 1989 as an unaccompanied minor and the only screen was up the front. We could choose the music to listen to tho. Ah yes I got sick and puked everywhere too. Fun.
Beautiful spring day in melbourne today. But make sure you allow for just about any type of weather. You could get anything at this time of year. Thats the reality of springtime in southern victoria 😊
We packed for wet weather but after yesterday I think I should've brought a warm coat too 😂
@@CharlieandRob lol yes our spring weather is all.over the place😊
Rob, should’ve book one of these three serviced apartment brand! Meriton, Oaks, and Quest. It’s way easier to stay in a serviced apartment than hotel :P
If you haven’t book your sydney accommodations, I highly recommend it.
We have very kindly been booked some accomodation for Sydney - thanks for the top though, great to know for next time!
Ginger is the natural worlds remedy for travel sickness, motion sickness on a plane or boat. lol. had it as a kid but never since, can't explain why I don't get motion sickness anymore but that is why they serve it. been in a 7m swell in a 20 foot boat and was fine. You got lucky in Perth, the next day was storming like mad. Go Swannies. usually landing in Perth is very turbulent as the plane enters the 'Fremantle Doctor' the nickname for our Westerly evening wind, WA is very Windy as you should know already.
We were surprised how little turbulence we had on both flights, even in the rain it wasn't bad at all!
@@CharlieandRob Glad you had a pleasant flight, hope you get a good sleep now and get busy enjoying Australia
You both look so cute in your matching colour scheme travel outfits :)
I'm not sure if it was intentional 🤣
@@CharlieandRob We have Tetley tea and Lipton tea in Australia if Twinings isn't your thing. There's also Dilmah and our own rare blend called Billy tea.
@@melissabarrett9750 no no Lipton's is the worst! Need a proper builders tea.
"You're in Australia, you don't need the heater on". Famous last words. 😀😃😀
Haha I regretted that the first morning in Melbourne
No loaf of bread was stolen in the making of this journey.
Rob: We're in bloody Australia, you don't need the heater." 😂🤣😂. You guys are awesome and funny.
It was warm...in the hotel anyway 🤣
Well done and well prepared!! Sleep before you leave, or pretend to sleep so noone disturbs you! Naps are good! I can't fly anymore, but I'm not jealous of the space you have or food - you have to try and eat it because airport food is too expensive! They have tried to improve the quality of food but I guess it wasn't practical! I would rather get the train, there are food choices, stops and much more comfort! Perth has been locked down, normal flights are just returning! There is also worker shortages, nor surprised! Warm bath, quiet mind and chill out! 🥱😴🤤🌛
welcome to australia
Food on a plane will generally taste bland. It is quite difficult to make the flavour good. Qantas meals are loads better than some carriers (looking at you Etihad).
Just remember your Australian viewers face long haul flights pretty much anytime we want to go anywhere outside of Australia. We know too well the cramped legroom, poor sleep and dodgy earphones. Definitely pick up some noise cancelling ones in duty free. Well worth the expense.
Consider the long haul flight an investment in the adventure that is travel.
We both have some great noise cancelling ear buds which we did use for music and using our tablets!
It's crazy because we can't get pretty much anywhere in Europe in under 4 hours, but 4 hours doesn't get you far in Australia 😂
@@CharlieandRob ahh. I wonder if you can get a plane adapter with Bluetooth or something? The ones on p,Ames are dreadful for long haul flights.
Yeah 4 hours in Australia and you’re still in Australia.
@@erincarter9457 sadly we have ear buds and not earphones
I've just done my first ever long haul flight Perth to Heathrow and back again..... but I didn't go cattle class, I treated myself to business class. (2020 when I booked it was only $1000 more than premium). Little to no sleep and 2 stops but at least I was comfy. I don't envy going in cattle class.
Oh what we would have done to be in business class!
Welcome to Australia.
Your face when you ate the crap airline food!! 😂 Priceless! Hope you really enjoy your time in Australia (and yeah, might need the heater on!) If you come to Tassie, yell out if you need any advice, more than happy to help 😊
I try not to pretend things are nice when they aren't 🤣
@@CharlieandRob no, keep on keepin it real 😆👍
@@CharlieandRob That's simply being honest.
i flown to the USA from Australia and the funny bit is, you arrive in L.A. before you leave Sydney
I wish long haul flights were roomier. Happy to pay slightly extra for it too.
Long haul flights - save up more for a roomier seat. I agree 👍.
Three things make long-haul flights livable for me:
Bulkhead seats - the extra you pay is worth it for the legroom and ability to bend and straighten you knees. Also makes it easier to get to the toilet if you have the window seat.
Cheap noise-cancelling headphones - I picked up a pair for $AU70 (GBP40) from Amazon and I use them wirelessly with my own device or plugged into the in-flight video screen.
Comfortable slip-on shoes with gel insoles - great for the long walk through the airport and gently supports your feet while in flight. Also good if you have to take off your shoes for security screening.
Well I had my shoes off the whole time. We both have good earbuds but obviously they don't connect to the plane screens which is annoying.
Lol hilarious
Rob's face when reality hits. On a tight budget you have to sacrifice. You guy's must have expected things to be a bit shitty. Lol hilarious when the shit was bigger than you expected!
Dont forget not to touch anything you have no intention of buying inside the mini fridges. They have sensors in them and if you disturb them buy picking up to look at them, they get charged to your account as if you did use them.
So be mindful when it comes time to pay your bills after your stay for anything that was charged and you never used. They will have to send someone up to look at the fridge and let them know that everything is still there so they can knock them off the bill.
Nice video , welcome to Australia from me Bruce and my wife Sheila .
So pleased you've come to see our wonderful country and especially pleased as a Victorian you've come to Melbourne. Couple of local gems to consider - hot jam donuts at Victoria market - take a tram to the end of the line and back, great way to see everything up close - Degraves street in Melbourne city for stroll and bite to eat and lastly to get a real sense of Melbourne's sporting precinct a ride on a Yarra cruise pop in for a cuppa if your up my way in northern Victoria I've just booked a trip to the UK in may
Oh I forgot to say, not all of Australia is hot and sunny and you have arrived in Melbourne which gets cold in Winter. The last time I visited, in October, (Spring) the day we left it was only 8C!
We realised how cold it was on the first day! Hoping it warms up a little before we return next week 😉
That looks so cramped. no way could I do it without at least premium economy. Would rather use Singapore Airlines and change planes in Singapore more comfortable and better food
If only I was richer and could afford business class 😎 or a free upgrade
@@CharlieandRob although at the moment business class prices are an absolute rip off compared to 2019. A return london to Melbourne business class flight is normally around $8000 with economy about $2000. hopefully lower prices will come in a year or two.
Lots of advice! but for me as someone who has done that trip dozens of times - fly via Bangkok or Singapore or at a push Hong Kong or Kuala Lumpur and stop over 24 to 36 hours. I would never fly via Perth. Small seat torture. Asian carriers great like Singapore Airlines - though if you insist BA and Qantas also fly via Singapore. Singapore easiest for people who have never been to Asia. Great airline and public transport far more efficient than most European/Australian cities. If your feeling adventurous - Vietnam good stopover options but you'll need a visa and transfers from airport a bit more challenging than Singapore, HK or Bangkok metros. Fantastic food in Vietnam.
Welcome to Melbourne Australia... i live here. haha well sept (now) is just the start of our spring, and we do still get some chilly days or nights until summer starts, its then you wont want a heater on. You forgot to mention throughout the whole video who you flew with? shame, as id liked to have known. Enjoy your stay. You didnt mention how long your over here, but theres lots to do and see around Melbourne.. Have fun
Qantas 🙂
High altitude affects the taste buds 😛
I flew to England a few times as a kid and teen many years ago, and the food looks very similar. Guess some things never change. :D
I wish it was better! I really did not enjoy it - luckily I've been making up for it with food in Melbourne so far 😋
After watching Rob Reacts channel for over a year now, and this video come up on my recommendations , I didn't see it on Rob's channel, but clicked on it and then realise its Rob and Charlie second channel that I had no idea about, but I am now Subbed.
You wouldn't believe how many times I've mentioned our vlog channel on my Rob Reacts channel 😂
Headphones never work well on a plane, I have fairly good headphones when at home it's deafening like a nightclub at 50% volume, however it's so loud in the plane and maybe the altitude has something to do with it, I could not hear my music through my headphones much at all.
Well we have OnePlus buds which are noise cancelling and they were pretty good. It's just a shame you need wired ones for the screen
Football Manager!!!!!!
I used to be addicted to that game, going all the way back to when it was Championship Manager and was only text. :D
I even got my face and name in the game as a regen player back around the FM05-07 or something. Haven't played it for several years now though.
I have played every year since about Championship manager 2000
Enjoy your mcg tour today
It was great!
You seem to be enjoying yourselves , which is good 👍, welcome to Oz,🦘
It's been great so far!
