Stay tuned for Saturday’s Video showing you to which extend Qatar Airways went to have my video removed from the internet. Subscribe now to not miss out on it! ✌🏻- meanwhile follow me on instagram.com/gotravelyourway for daily updates! ❤
What can you expect from the Scums of Qatar Airways they treat passenger on basis of theie Race.
Saudia and Qatar are one of most racist carrier out there.
But Gonna say EMIIRATES is the only major Arab Airline which is still keeping the Hope
Bc of Qatar banning you skytrax thought that singapore airways was better so singapore airways got 1st place by skytrax
If you're banned from the Airline do you think you may also be banned from the country?
Why did they ban you? They didn’t like your review 😂
QA is real garbage in every way. Their treatment of Josh says a lot. A shithole Company from a shithole country.
I suggest you remind your viewers that you've been banned by Qatar Airways every single video. Make the cost of banning you by any airline high - very high.
Even have it on every post you make. “Day 3 of my Qatar ban.”
Completely agree. Very sad state of affairs at Qatar Airline. Hopefully people will boycott them in protest.
@@patriciafuchs5970unfortunately people won’t care. They offer a great service for a competitive price for the vast majority of people
@@davidlazarus67ohh, I like that!
Amazing idea hahaha
Normally they ban unruly passengers but banning due to an opinion is just plain wrong. I always felt skytrax is a purchase reward
its funny considering Josh spoke with the CEO a couple years ago
Did he get banned maybe as he has links with Israel but they don’t wanna say it
What links do I have with Israel? 🤣
@@JoshCahill Lol this is hilarious.
Welcome to oil rich autocratic ME sheikhdoms.
As a business decision, this is mental. Imagine owning it, then improving. Qatar would end up looking the hero of this story. Prime example of idiotic leadership.
they dug their hole ten times deeper by banning him. fools
Average gulf state
@Gripengamer no... below average which isn't by any means forgivable😢
Ego
Emirates take the opportunity.. 🎉🎉🎉
As a former employee of Qatar, consider it a Badge of Honor to be banned by Qatar. What they did to passengers during the pandemic is criminal.
What did they do?!
@@sudhakar7889 i’m not at liberty to say
@@moaziz23 I didn't see you were former employee. Sorry. I'll look into it myself. Good night.
@@sudhakar7889 A lot can be found on social media. A lot of it is based on pricing structures, inadequate information from DOH, excess Covid testing…
@@sudhakar7889 sorry but that is as far as I can go
It turns out, even the most prestigious airline in the world cannot take constructive criticism without retaliation...
Yes, really shameful. They have no honor, decency or even ambitions left. Just greed.
Turns out their "prestige" is not real, it was bought. Now reality has brought it crashing down.
Prestige … far from it
Singapore Airlines, Emirates and ANA have more decency than this. Heck, even Belavia has more decency than this.
I gave a spa/gym in another country a negative review. It was fair on my part. They banned me as well. It seems that is how they handle negative reviews. I went elsewhere. Much better results. My money comes with me. 🤔💪😉
Qatar Airways was my employer for almost 8 1/2 years and I witnessed SO many fates, especially of cabin crew members. I was ground staff somewhere in Europe, it was okay for me. But when I left the company and resigned, the last thing I was told was, "Don't think you can ever come back!" As if I would ever consider that... My conclusion: QR gives me ONE good reason to work for them (to be proud to work for THE best airline in the entire world! Yeah right...), and I have at least FIFTY arguments against it.
Me too ,I never work for them ,but I heard good until this video and your comments ,Qatar airways will never be popular again after this,their staff is okay ,but their boss really need to be nicer ,Qatar airways is modern slavery
You are talking about staff in South Asia they even Misbehave with Passenger. QATAR AIRWAYS pnly deliver service in Europe and US for us South Asians it feels like as ife we are flying for Free.
Same goes for Saudia their staff is intolerable intimidating they have said some of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard in my life...seems like Saudia Staff depends too much on SM for their News.
@@NATO4623 I disagree with the discussion, but they are a *private company* and have the right to!
@@MrNigelFarage In modern countries even a private company would not be able to act like this. They can because they and the rest of the country is abusing people fro 3rd world countries. Also QR is not a private company even if they pretend to be. Have you walked the city, all the immigrant worker, working in horrible conditions, have you checked how many dies every year, and the same goes for UAE.
dont think you can ever come back, if they said that to you then you must be a very problematic person, just !!11by your comment i can tell you are a unstable person and not fit for employment, well done qatar!!
Hey Josh, I just flew Qatar airlines last month. Over 21 hour flight. And when I sat down there were ANTS!!! coming out of the front pocket. Must have been over a hundred. The crew then shifted us to the back of the plane which was very cramped. I emailed Qatar about this twice and I’ve never even heard a reply back, not even an apology. I will never fly Qatar again.
ANTS OH HELL NAH
Might as well have been SNAKES ON THE PLANE!.......Muhahahaha
what do you expect... the world cup is over - no more need to pretend...
Have you heard about one of the European air line had a bed bug.. it was in news...I believe it was British air . and also On you tube I watched the video which during check-in baggage drop-off employee noticed cockroaches coming out of the bag. so blaming air line is correct ...
It's alarming to witness Qatar Airways responding to criticism by banning @JoshCahill from flying with them. . Such actions undermine the principles of free expression and accountability. A constructive approach would be addressing concerns rather than resorting to restrictive measures, which raises questions about transparency and the airline's commitment to constructive dialogue.
Hey honey it's an Arab country..there not into free expression. There society you do what you told
When something irrational like that happens you can be 99% sure Al Baker saw your video and threw a temper tantrum like he always does and banned you. Good thing he retired recently.
That's what I was told, he personally ordered it. Stay tuned for Saturdays video!
@@JoshCahill Bitter fool, his loss. But then again, he's probably a billionaire and arrogant. Two things that go hand in hand unfortunately.
@@JoshCahill He is known for walking into Al Safwa lounge, look at a crooked nametag or just a person he didn't like, then just pull their access card. done. I had the displeasure of meeting him once. he is a horrific little weasel
@@JoshCahill He picked a similar fight with Airbus and lost. He will lose this one too.
Ali Bakar is a Dingo, is a Dingo, is a Dingo. Now ban me, as I don't give a bloody 'f' [rhymes with duck].
I was hesitating to book Qatar from Australia to Europe due to Qatar's practice of charging for seat selection, even in business. Now I know they'll ban passengers if they don't like their honest feedback, I booked Emirates. Keep up the great work, Josh.
Emirates charges for seat selection as well for some economy tiers
. Mmm I don't think that's the point I don't think you caught the drift
Finally Qatar Airways is getting the light it deserves. People within the industry know the truths of the horrors of working for that Airline. It always pissed me off that passengers rated it so highly. If only they knew.
I known that for years. I have retired from an aircraft manufacturing company after 30 years. Qatar ordered a number of planes from my former employer and the area I worked as a foreman was in the interior of the aircraft. Oh the stories I could tell
@@mikeske9777Please, tell me some of those stories.
Passengers don't work for the airline.
So why work for them if it’s so bad? The Qatar crew checking in ( at their employers expense) at the five star beach resort I recently saw looked pretty happy.
@@stevena9305 Well, they kinda have to look happy given that they could be fired for the slightest infraction. Besides that, I can only speculate that for people from poorer countries the high wages and perks are still better than what’s available in their home countries. Or perhaps they just have the personality that’s compatible with such a restrictive contract.
Can you imagine the positive PR if a senior manager had thanked you for highlighting their issues and offered you a free flight anywhere for another review. Some companies pay a lot of money to get customer feedback.
Thiiiis!!!
@@michaelcaling Free flight anywhere for another review is what Josh called a bribe in another video, and he's right. My guess is that their main concern was a lot of comments on his video about how Qatar Airways treats its staff and people associating the crew's bad performance with the poor working conditions. That's probably why they didn't acknowledge any of the issues in the video.
That’s shocking! I would expect more from an airline that claims to be one of the worlds best, absolutely disgusting treatment.
This summer I tried the claimed one of the worlds best airliner.
My route : Zurich - Doha - Windhoek
To resume : Doesn’t worth the money and the hype
Untrained crew, Bus transit in Doha, broken seat, etc…
Never again
I agree ☝️
Agreed
Agreed
Lol you take those SKYTRAX ranking seriously??
One one can ever come close to beat Emirates in Gulf....these Qatar, Saudia etx are only show off airlines
After what Qatar airlines did to dozens of innocent female passengers ie forced gynaecological examination on the tarmac searching for a woman who abandoned a baby in the terminal I will NEVER fly with them. Not even an apology for their barbaric, misogynist behaviour.
haha yea. that was too much. feminists all over the world should be protesting about it.
Exactly John. As a Aussie female I will never fly with them. Appalling behaviour.
Yeah that treatment would be an abuse even for bitches.
THIS. I take Emirates over them because of that.
Yea they got issues
My wife and I only fly Emirates going overseas out of Australia. We've clocked up more than a million miles together now and the strength of their economy class gives us no reason to fly anyone else.
UAE>>>>>>>>>>>Qatar
I'm still relatively young, but have been flying in Emirates for at least the last 14 years. They are the cream of the crop when it comes to economy travel, especially in the 777 - recently however, my parents suggested we only travel abroad on British Airways, simply because their premium and standard economy seats are much cheaper. Unsurprisingly, I am against it
Josh that’s amazing that an airline especially Qatar Airways has banned you that seems so petty. You’re only reviewing and reporting your flight experience for us to view . Keep up your great work .😃👍
I’m a frequent flyer on Emirates and have been for many years. For short trips to Dubai I usually choose to fly economy class and more premium classes for long haul trips. I often get free upgrades without even requesting them. Overall and without hesitation they get an enthusiastic thumbs up from me.
I got a free upgrade from business class to first with emirates. It was amazing
Josh: There will be a dedicated video coming next week about the whole Qatar Airways incident.
Me: Stocks up on popcorn.
Great!! Now I'm actively going to recommend people to not take Qatar, just hoping this would snowball among other viewers/flyers into hurting the airline.
I don't even care for their service, but for a major world player like QR, this is next to unacceptable.
Is this REALLY what it took? Not the Australian women who were forced off the plane in Doha at gunpoint, and vaginally searched without their consent? Qatar is a country that doesn't even allow women to show off their skin.
Qatar is generally cheaper than Emirates, so no, people will continue flying Qatar
@@themagicportal9084 Learn to spell, 'droob'. It's 'cares', not 'care'.
@@MegaHariboboy
What a stupid comment 😂
Bitch I live in Qatar and that’s not true, I bet you have never visited it.
In Qatar airlines cabin crew are forced to live in company apartments which are riddled with CCTV, security guards and a swipe card so that the company can enforce a curfew to prevent them spending the night elsewhere. They’re forbidden from leaving their apartment for 12 hours before every flight.
They need permission to get married or leave the country. And they can be fired on the spot for any reason-even the tiniest infraction such as wearing the uniform while shopping. They can get fired for being pregnant and have to ask permission from the Airline to get married. And more, lots more.
I always fly with Emirates when I fly from the US to Pakistan. Most of the time they are on time, the crew is always nice, they take safety seriously, and the plane is kept clean, especially on long flights
TRUE EMIRATES IS THE BEST AIRLINES
@@ichigokeshavDebateable. Emirates is good and worth it. Singapore Airlines in my opinion is my fav.
Heck even AirAsia is a budget airline, yet they deserve their positive reviews since they do deliver what they advertise.
I just canceled my Qatar Airways flight because of this video. I hope others will do the same. I appreciate you Josh! ✈️
Same here dude
It's insane that they dont deny purchase, instead of people booking days off, hotel, rental etc. they are insane. I canceled my platinum membership because they would not own their mistakes. wonder if i'm banned also, that would be an honour.
And Josh Google the update of the 18 Australian women suing Qatar over invasive searches and also the Australian government disallowing Qatar extra flights to Australia.
Disgusting men and I advise all women avoid Qatar and use other options. Look forward to Saturdays video!
As an Aussie I totally agree.
Please PRAY to a higher power!! They need to be brought to their knees from such foolish pride!!
@@carolinelane9599 This Aussie also agrees with you.
I hate when youtubers make honest vids about a airline. and then the airline just bans you for trying to give you feed back to inprove
Wow! I live in Abu Dhabi and was at the airport just yesterday. Insanly dissapointed about the fact that a very nicely reputated airline BANNED you. Glad emirates was a good experience. Hope u enjoyed UAE :)
I'm happy you don't give fake positive reviews just so you get free flights or better service. True authentic experience we can really expect ❤
Sam Chui is the master, giving fake positive reviews. Josh tells the truth; we need more like him.
@@josephcarlbreil5380 Agreed. I used to follow Sam but he is more of a promoter than an honest reviewer.
As a regular flyer to Middle East I always use Emirates and Etihad but last year for the World Cup I used Qatar Airways and found them very poor, inconsistency in terms of the seating and entertainment system on the B777 on the way there which was rubbish compared to the A380 on way back, food was just okay but then what shocked me most was as we came in to land back in UK they did not even carry out a check to see if everyone had brought their seats back up from recline or if seat belts were fastened.
Etihad are sadly now using Wamos to provide their service between Abu Dhabi and Jakarta , no comparison
@@apb1934 Took a business class flight with Etihad last week from London to Abu Dhabi. Shocking Service I can honestly say the service I have had with Emirates in Economy in the past was better than that. Not sure whats happening with these Middle East Carriers their standards are in decline.
You earned my respect when you made that video of Air Peace with everyone losing the plot over their catastrophic service. But you've earned even more points in my book for your honest review of Qatar which rubbed the CEO up the wrong tree leading to a ban ! good on you man. That's how it should be. Airlines won't improve if people don't lay down the facts for them.
this truly just will make the Qatar airways drama bigger. They should have just accepted the criticism like most airlines do.
I haven't seen your video on them, but I can already agree. I've flown with them in the summer of 2022 to cape town, and it was definitely less service-oriented than before. I've also flown with them before to KL years before. It's sad to see the decline of so many airlines (Turkish airlines for example). I'm flying emirates this year (after 8 years) again and I really hope they are still as great as they were back then.
I don't think the are bad airlines, the problem is that people are used to getting high service paid and they are not patient to wait for something new, but anyhow, they must not get angry when criticized.
Flew Emirates on valentines day 2023, they were very good. Even gave out little sweeties to mark the occasion.
Sorry for that experience Josh. I'm looking forward to Saturday's video to see what on earth happened after that Qatar Airways video.
My Uncle flew 1 time from India to JNB in Qatar, leaving Emirates, and I am unsure what he saw, but he never went back to Qatar and actively told his family to only fly Emirates because of their consistency. OneWorld seems less rewarding too compared to Skywards.
Shame on qatar instead of improving their products they should to banned a honest review.
Josh should have rebutted their ban with, don’t like my review then improve your service!
Disgraceful behaviour from Qatar. I have very well off relatives that travel Qatar every single year from Adelaide to Athens. They live their sites! I'm seeing them soon and will show them your video, and dissuade them from flying Qatar again soon. Thank you for showing how spiteful and vindictive Qatar can be. They will lose customers because of this, and justifiably so IMHO. Keep up your awesome work mate. X
Not problem for them Qatar behaves/ Show quite nice service from Australia to europe route. They just give this terrible racial treatment on South Asian routes like Sri Lanka, India , Pakistan, Bangladesh , Nepal
Maybe nonstop Dan can help
I disagree with the discussion, but they are a *private company* and have the right to!
@@MrNigelFarageso why you spam this everywhere???
BOT@@MrNigelFarage
Proof that Emirates deserves that five star rating.
(For context Emirates is currently a four star airline right now.)
Proof that Skytrax isn’t reliable for ratings
Emirates would ban him too.. Middle Eastern companies do not like negative feedback not in the slightest.
Airline ratings are all fake, based on bribes. I prefer reviews from independent vloggers like Josh.
@@kerotomas1They are not democratic unlike western countries. They don't take criticism lightly.
@@kerotomas1It is an Arab/Muslim country after all. They are undemocratic and don't like to be criticized.
Proof emirates is really chill
As a pilot, I once aspired to join Qatar. Then I started hearing stories of how the airline put stringent constraints on how their crews behaved and spent their free time, so I dropped the idea.
Later, I flew the airline from India to Europe via Doha. While the flying experience was par for the course, the transit checks at Doha were painful and abasing. Haven’t flown it again. At least our luggage reached with us…
Transiting in Doha was a bit strange. I saw a couple told to throw away their duty free (some sorts of drinks?) Stuff or they can't go through security and board. Folks were also told to remove ipad cover before going through the screening machine
Thanks for the update, I have to admit I went off Qatar when they tried to blackmail Airbus over their A350's recently and it sounds as though they are up to their tricks again. If they cannot stand critisim then maybe it's time to get out of the airline business for good.
I flew Qatar in September (Singapore-Doha-Athens) and was in Doha for a day. I agreed with everything in Josh's Qatar video. Badly maintained plane interiors, terrible handling of keeping customers on a bus for 30 minutes in 40 degree heat with no aircon, no inflight entertainment on a 3-hour supposedly premium international flight. They might think banning Josh is just being spiteful to one person, but they're seriously wrong. Millions of potential passengers will now boycott them because of this one action. It shows how they respond to criticism, and it shows disrespect to anyone thinking about using them. I can't see myself ever using them again. Qatar might as well ban me too, I have no desire to ever go back to the country.
Doha was a wasteland of a place from what I saw and is a metaphor for the country and Qatar Airways as a whole. I saw abandoned construction projects and already decaying Fifa World Cup signs with no effort to take them down only 9 months after it ended, and even saw a half-finished hotel near Souq Waqif with the foyer left wide open with nothing inside. I almost never saw any humans other than in cars and in museums, except when I tried to walk towards a metro station across an empty parking lot and was stopped by a security guard. A shopping mall with over 100 stores I went to was mostly empty in the early afternoon. The most ridiculous experience was an abandoned statue of a FIFA World Cup mascot along the harbour. Fencing had been put up around it but was pulled down, there were no security guards and no care factor for the fencing being completely useless, I spent 10 minutes there taking photos and never saw anyone.
You the man Josh love your honest opinions. Im sure Qatar will now lay out the red carpet for Sam Chui to give a glowing review of how great they are. As much as the middle east atabic countries try to prove how open and advanced they are. It just reeks of being openly false and phony, no matter how much cash they throw around.
To Hell with Sam Chui. Such a fake little toadie.
you want honest real experience of what an ordinary person may get on the flights I don't follow Sam for that. I watch Sam to see how a VVIP is treated since i will never get that experience :)
@davidchan9187 Chui is not a vvip though and who knows if he paid or was paid for his reviews. So much of his channel seems fake,compared to every....other travel and airline blogger. Amazing how he is treated differently from everyone else,doing the exact same thing.
Sam is way too famous to not get vip service in economy class they give him first class service
Sorry but Sam Chui is a "goody two shoes". I honestly don't trust his reviews as everything is always so wonderful and fantastic in his eyes. He definitely knows how to get his bread (or is it lobster) buttered on both sides .....😑
This is actually a big compliment to you Josh, means you're right! And it is difficult to deal with feedback
Every change offers resistance to humanity. 😉
Sam Chui would have given Qatar 20/10
Yea, he probably would. Such a 'wanker'.
This is the main reason why i watch you Josh! No fakery, no bs, just everything that you show us is real and not planned or anything whatsoever, probably the best aviation RUclipsr out there! Thanks alot Josh
Qatar Airways was good but after Covid it really sucks, we flew from BRU to CNX in Business class and it was really disappointing. Everything was organized so chaotically. We have flown with Qatar Airways three times in a row, but this is now a thing of the past for us. We will never set foot in a Qatar Airways aircraft again. They were number 1 in the world for several years, but now they are falling sharply in ranking.
Singapore Airlines, Emirates, ANA/JAL are looking way better.
I just flew qatar a few days ago. Maybe it just depends your origin and all, because when we did a flight from SEA-DOH, the crew was more than nice and let us enjoy unlimited free drinks and snacks whenever we wanted (flying economy) and we enjoyed that. But i’m shocked. How can such a top tier airline ban someone who just wanted to help them improve their airline? That beyond ridiculous. On my way back from this trip, i will be going via DOH again on qatar airways, and we will see how that ends. Thank you for sharing this. It’s starting to seem that qatar airways wants to lose passengers. Mention that you’ve been banned every video, and they will see how much money they lose because of one guy who wanted to help the airline out. Bribing with a free ticket is beyond ridiculous and not professional at all.
Because I suspect as of now flight crews are petrified of Qatar!
Hey josh, was wondering if it's possible for you to show us additional content such as getting a rental from the airport to drive to Dubai airport etc? It's something that happens frequently yet often not covered enough. It might help travellers who face such issues
I mean it's a very weird thing that being a world class airline they should rather accept and try to improvise but banning you is like they are covering up, never expected such thing from Qatar Airways
I hope this makes the news, sounds like disgraceful behaviour.
the logical thing would be to ask the guy who fly's for a living to have a meeting and discuss how they could improve as an airline. A business is nothing without feedback and Qatar really just embarrassed themselves.
Haven't flown in over ten years until summer '23 going AMS-DUBAI with my son for a week. Flight, service, all economy class was a wonderful experience. Compared to KLM this was great. Just great.
I hope you speak on what Qatar did to a plane full of Australian female passengers transiting back to Australia, forced off the plane in dubi and forced internal exams after a abandoned newborn was found in the airport. It is a 60 minutes Australia segment that you can find on YT.
I just wanna know if that little'un's OK???
This is AWESOME! I wonder if we can get a whole campaign started with all the airline review vloggers, have some sort of message at the beginning of their videos stating that Qatar bans people for having an opinion, would be great if it went viral!
Freedom of speech and civil rights aren’t a thing in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or Qatar. Why people visit those places is beyond me…
The UAE and Qatar are not the same… Qatar is quite a bit worse and has been for a long time
Don't mix things up for biasedness and speculations! This is purely about a Airline, i.e, Qatar airways in this case.
Don't drag nations into it!
@@coolguywithshades34 No they're about the same, freedom of speech isn't any better because you can show more skin or drink booze more freely in Dubai/AD.
@@coolguywithshades34All are emirates.
I wouldn't be surprised if Emirates did the same thing, it's just they haven't been tested because they are not incompetent enough to screw up like qatar by having piss on the floor
Josh. Watched you for a few years. Never commented. You come across such a nice genuine man.! Which is rare and you are only giving you opinion that should be allowed. And should be valuable feedback for an airline. Keep smiling. Sending luv to you fella xx
Goodness, just recently became a platinum traveller with Qatar and surprised they have done this. I have never had any issues with Qatar Airlines. Interesting video and look forward to seeing what happened ...
Well Qatar is off my list then… poor human rights and then ban people flying…so disgusting
sorry to burst your bubble but it makes zero difference to them
@@Hi_its_Kartikif all their customers do the same thing, it sure will matter to them 😂
Josh - all I can say is you know you’re doing a fantastic job if airlines are banning you! 🎉
Just out of curiosity, if you arrive at an international airport with a valid booking for a flight, and an airline Bans you on the spot, do they refund your fare in full at the counter? or do they tell you it will come in the post?
i'm traveling on Qatar from KL next week and your video came up on my homepage... now I'm a bit worried but I guess I'll have to stay optimistic as I'd booked the flight already anyways
I'm shocked and this makes them look like a bunch of pricks. It hurts their image even more. I'm sorry to hear about what happened and I would sue them when you get back to Germany if I were you. Enjoy your trip and stay safe!
Arab countries and freedom of speech is not really a thing ….
shut up where is the freedom of speech in your country when we say something you don't like
It is hard to believe but that is the sad truth. I was in Kuwait for 14 years
Racist
@@UmmEss this is not racist becoz he did not mention anything about race.the law and government is just very iffy.....say the slightest thing against the govt. and you ae dead
@@UmmEssThat's not racism. He said something against Arab countries, not against their people...
Hey Josh! That’s me at 4:38 :) Thanks for the compliment, I no longer work at EK sadly but I always remember flight to CDG
I still have very fond memories of that flight too, hope you are well my friend!
@@JoshCahill If you are ever flying in the States, come fly with my new company, Breeze Airways!
I love Emirates ! Thank you for this flight report .
No wonder so many people hate Qatar including Airbus.
Its all about Al Baker
I've always said that, while Qatar Airways offers great inflight experience, they have among the worst customer service in aviation. It's almost like they care very little about their customers until they're on board. I'm hoping that the post-Al Bakar regime will lead to improvements.
@@slavedriver394 I flew Qatar Airways on November 19th and 20th between Lagos and Manama. The inflight service was excellent, but the ground service was just ok.
My goodness as a resident here in Qatar who regularly flies Qatar airways i am shocked to the extent that they would go to just for their image.
Well, mate, don't fly on QA then.
Leave.
I flew Qatar many years ago on Business and it was very impressive. However, after these terrible events, in which unnecessary disputes with Airbus, and passenger treatment altogether, it is surprising that Skytraz even considers this carrier among the "best" ones. If I ever have to consider my options, it shall be weighed upon all these latest videos from you Josh and your peers
Scamtrax is as good as money is being bribed to the company from the airlines and airports! There is no objectivity in the ratings.
nice one 😂
I remember a similar quote in the movie Casablanca 😂😂❤
Qatar airways definitely made a super marketing move... Makes them look so petty and accentuates their "paying" their way to get what they want... embarrassing for them. Bullying airbus and now Josh...
Josh, start a campaign: Those airlines that do not tolerate free speech should not fly to countries that guarantee free speech.
Where in the world of companies wanting customer service feedback , you are exactly the person they should be using and thanking. This is the golden opportunity for their company to get the exact information to make their airline the best
You’ve saved me from a disastrous long flight. Just yesterday my husband suggested that we fly Qatar Airlines. I didn’t like the connections but now I’m aware of issues with the airline. Many thanks.
I hope we get to hear both sides of the story. Airlines do ban people if they consider they are being portrayed in a bad manner or their shortcomings are being highlighted or sometimes just mid-management trying to hide their mistakes, but then some reviewers themselves are no saints, trying to blackmail airlines into sponsoring them or getting elite treatment or simply for views using controversy and click baits.
It is important to investigate what really happened and hear both sides of the story before jumping to any conclusion.
wait for Qatar Airways to put up a film on youtube - you sure you not paid by QA ?
It's okay Josh. There are a lot of airlines that are worth flying. Keep your honest review going.👍👍
Great content as always.
Emirates is always a home feeling. You don’t get that feeling in any other airline no matter how good their product is!! That home feeling makes your trip more relaxed and happier than other airlines.
This is not only shameful of QR, it reflects very badly on oneworld by association (though no other oneworld airline would stoop to this level…and I personally think it’s the best alliance), but there is a oneworld group CEO that needs to monitor the issue, and it should be on the agenda for their next senior group meeting. No member will ever be able or should control another member’s practices, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be discussed in an internal forum.
If one member is offensive, it could affect other members…even if only marginally financially, it’s an alliance branding weakness.
Banning someone seems a particularly nasty response and certainly reinforces what you experienced. What they’ve done is the complete opposite of what good quality public relations should be. It reeks of an administration believing that they are beyond criticism and doesn’t engender confidence that they are interested in doing better.
Nice one Josh great review
Not surprised one bit. Using Qatar for the first next year, wish me luck. I'm hoping I haven't made an epic mistake as the same route with Emirates was only £250 more for my whole family and i've used them before this year and was happy.
RUclips is big business and a marketing tool nowadays and QR has a lot of fellow RUclipsrs that do not pay for their trips with QR and only write positive reviews. That is the problem Josh! You pay the trips yourself to do honest reviews and a lot of fellow RUclipsrs take Free Business class seats, free lounge access and only write positive reviews like an advertisement for QR and others….. They forget that 80% of the people flying are seated economy class and do not have that luxury.
Keep ongoing doing the honest reviews and I hope that this ban will cost QR a lot customers that avoid them flying in the near future!
Interesting - this guy posted two incredibly (and quiet unjustifiably) negative videos about Emirates a while back, and look - they didn't ban him! We can all now see which airline is better 😍
Ive never been so lucky to get such an empty flight
Yes, just had an Emirates 777 flight which was chock-a-block full. Noticeably less comfortable than a full A380. But crew were nice enough, and at least it wasn't a really long flight.
Glad to hear about Emirates’ honesty to you.
The fact you got banned for Qatar Airways just because of a bad review is really odd for the airline. As if they are banning anyone who receives a bad review on Qatar Airways. But huge well done to Emirates for the rescue
I absolutely love Emirates i am flying them this time next week to London from Australia so excited
@@Ehan_Shabiwhere to
Have a great trip Louise. Our turn in 7 weeks in BC. Flew BC last year with them. Going to Europe food was shocking. Coming back brilliant. I won't fly Qatar after what happened to those Aussie women out of principal. I paid extra to fly Emirates. I refuse to give Qatar a cent of my money.
@@carolinelane9599i will never fly Qatar
There are a lot of airline RUclips reviewers who have made lots of reviews on Qatar - most positive, some neutral to negative. Have any of them reached out to you yet? If so, what's their general reaction been?
I hope to fly on Emerites one day. Looks like a great airline. ✈️
Josh, like you said, it seems like Qatar is saying we really haven’t changed anything so we don’t want you to see it.
Are you sure this wasn't air Canada?
I think they will loose a lot of customers now in QR when they deal in this way with a review showing their shortcomings .
Thanks 🙏 for the review. I never go on QR again , they do not treat their staff good , the fought with airbus , because the got banned to get any new airbus again poor attitude of this airline 😢
Flying that direction later this year and my choices are these two airlines. This certainly reflects much better on one than the other.
Josh I love watching your videos because that give me to which flight I should avoid or take when I’m going on a vacation so I won’t be stuck thank you for those videos 😊
Hi Josh, Wow can't say that I am surprised about QR's reaction and the bribe and ban tactics they did, I know somethings about them myself but I will wait for your video to see whether they match. Never supported them anyways, Emirates on the other hand, I have always appreciated their product, great Economy class, love it, I even got the rare opportunity to try their Business Class this year and I was excited and happy, Another Epic product that if I could afford would fly again and again. The food onboard was also great. I always have a fantastic experience each time I fly EK and I WILL FLY THEM AGAIN.
What a shame for them. I've flown Qatar/Emirates/Etihad many times over this route and from Europe in Y class almost all the time. Qatar has consistently been the least satisfying experience. Doha's airport is very inconvenient too, confusing and dark. I've flown A380s most of the time and that's the precise reason why I favour Emirates now, although honestly Etihad's interior of their A380s is cosier and nicer. I don't like the 777. It's much noisier and feels more cramped.
You gave me just another reason never to choose Qatar anymore in the future. Thanks.
Doha Hamad International Airport is one of the best satisfying Airports in the world. What do you mean by confusing and. And if this youtuber gets banned what does it have to do with you?
That told us you are number one good job, Josh
I have good experience with Emirates flying from New York to Dubai. The free wifi and the size seat even in the Econ cabin really help with the long flight
Your Qatar video was really good and honest. Disappointed they have banned you.
I have asked them on X, if they have a page where customers can check if they have been banned, before buying a ticket. 🤣😂
The Emirates 777 Business Class will eventually be upgraded to have the 1, 2,1 layout- my favorite.
As is: you get a lot of legroom but the shoulder and hip room is disappointing.
The A380 feels like a Maybach by comparison.
Josh, I really love your videos, and always look forward to new ones. I have a question if I may, few weeks ago I watched immediately when it came out your Myanmar Airlines review. The following day, it wasn't in the system anymore. Could you please explain the reasoning as it was a very fascinating review also about the country?
