BA4 and 5 are spreading like wildfire. More than half of the people I known who’ve flown in the last month have gotten COVID. There are concerns about repeated infections leading to lifelong chronic health issues. Doctors here in the US are despairing that we’ve surrendered to COVID. I’m not so sure the dropping of masks in airports and airplanes will turn out to have been a wise choice. I don’t know. We’ll see.
As an African cabin crew, I can't wait to have you on board our Uganda Airlines CRJ-900. I know you were a part of our A330-800 delivery, but it would be amazing having you back on board while on your African adventure.
Thanks for your review, as an Ivorian i truly appreciate your honesty. I will share this video until it gets where it should be, we need improvement 👏🏾 Thanks 👍
On the aesthetics side the colors of the cabin are absolutely stunning. Its not the bland colors that some airlines have yet not loud. The uniforms of the cabin crew are also very chic and compliment the cabin.
Thank you for an excellent expose of African Airlines (traveling in economy class) which for the most part are overlooked by your counterparts. I really enjoy your objectiveness and genuine concerns on the travel experience. Keep up the great work.
@@BIGBIRDSMEAL The correct word is 'utter' and Air Afrique can't be any worse than Air Peace.The aviation industry on the whole continent is a total disgrace.
Just got back from Malta - And as of today me and the wife have caught Covid. So trying to relax with my sore throat, head ache and chills watching your vids.
And here’s our man Josh saying drop the masks, tests etc… like COVID has taken a break or something? Very poor. Watched he’d all his videos, but as a public figure as he is, to say this is poor and shows little respect of a pandemic that you can not deny.
@@danvalentine2997 I agree with Josh. Drop the masks. Get back to normal. What is out there now is nothing more than a COLD. What a bunch of snowflakes in this world. Scared of your own shadows.
I live in Hawaii. I have a friend who comes over often for business for only a couple of days at a time. We were talking 2 days ago about how we have also noticed a change in people's attitudes towards each other in the last 2 years. We decided it was due to the political situations in the West. Every Western country seems to have been effected.
People in the U.S. have become downright uncivilized. I can give two shits about someone’s political beliefs….but it seems as if we have forgotten how to be respectful and understanding of each other. Trying to work some sort of an angle to exit the USA for at least half the year once I retire. Enough already.
I am happy that you are the first white man to video air line in Nigeria. I expected Sam chui , but you take over, good!!!!. Ibom has an order from Airbus 13 ,a220 300. Air peace air line has order 13 ,e195 e2 . Received, 5. Med view air line has order 3, e175 ,embryo. Great improvement.
I like your videos because you cover 'The Mother Land' and we don't see this a lot. it's just everyone showing you how the high-level traveller travels not regular folks
Great video! I've never been to anywhere in French speaking Africa so I can't say whether rudeness is a cultural phenomenon there or not, but at least your flights were on time and the aircraft were in good operating condition. It's great to see African countries investing in their airlines and operating them with modern aircraft and safety/maintenance that meets or exceeds industry standards. It's also great to see a country like Senegal building a new, modern airport.
@@JO-uf3mq watch the video, focus on what he's talking about, then talk to me. Focused on the dirty seat? Why, you like seating on a plane full of dirty seats? You pay hundreds, if not thousands of dollars and they can't even provide you a clean seat? That's speak well well of their selves. How could they even be clean, like on food they serve? Think about that.
My favorite video by you so far! I travel a lot and always want to go to new places but I'm terrified of flying so it's really nice to see you normalize (if you can say that?) these rare airlines that many would probably consider dangerous. Watching your videos definitely tones down my fear a lot. And I agree with what you said about people being a bit too sensitive nowadays, here's to hoping you won't get cancelled haha ✌️
I knew as soon as you said it..."eventless" I was like oh noooooo! I'm glad it was not worse. Love all your reviews, and look forward to all of them. Stay safe.
Hey Josh,I suggest you to get permission to record pilot inside their cabin like some aviation youtubers ,i think it will be more interesting . Btw , amazing vid
Am a Nigerian It's nice to see you coming to my country but we don't have a National airline. I am one of your suscribers but it's unfortunate that I don't stay in Lagos but in Anambra we just opened our airport this year
Hey Josh! Upon doing some research, the A319 belonged to Avianca! It looks like an old school Avianca or Avianca Ecuador cabin due to the IFE. You should come to South America!
the turbulance may have caused such an excessive motion that it caused the a319's autopilot to switch off. that couldve also triggered a switch or wire to be slightly offput to turn of the lights but the beeping was prob just the autopilot disconnect.
The autopilot disconnect aural warning will not be heard all the way in the back of the cabin. Most likely a smoke alarm going off in one of the lavatories due to a faulty smoke detector.
I so agree with how the fact that you can't say or do anything because people feel offended...its so annoying. I am an European married with a Tanzanian and some people (not Africans) believed that me dressing up with maasai clothes, which is the tribe my husband is part of is cultural appropriation and a lack of respect while my tanzanian family and also just random people from the street over there loved it and cheered it... Great videos, I actually hate flying 😁 but for some reason I love watching these kind of videos :).
Great review on Air cote d'Ivoire👌🏻 The security dude though 😂😂 Poor little A320neo too early to get worn they need to clean the cabin atleast alternate days or something🤧
I agree with you Josh, we're all being prevented from voicing the truth, which is why I left the UK, permanently and now live in Bulgaria, where people say what they see. I love living here! Love watching the African flights!
Hey Josh, totally agree with you. People always try and put others down no matter what you say about world events. I would be interested to your view on us Aussie's. Having been to Germany and France I've only ever come across friendly people. Not to say that there is different types in all countries. Keep up the good work, love your channel. Cheers mate
The planes remind me of Jetstar Asia. The crew remind me of emirates. I only ever had one good experience flying emirates when the crew were mainly Australian and English.
Being overly direct can be seen as rude depending on the context, had family I was with feel like they were our hotel staff in Berlin were being rude/abrupt at reception compared to how you'd normally be talked to in the UK/US but looking back they were just being efficient/direct. Feels like a lot of it is cultural norms
I've always said, it's your channel, you can talk about what you want...if someone asks why YOU don't talk about various other places...In the nicest possible way of course...suggest they could start their own channel too and talk about any place they wish.
You've got a French logo on your sweater and they're still grumpy 😡, when they replaced the Dash-8 with the A319, I immediately thought that it had to do with the weather. Somehow the idea of flying in a turboprop at night in stormy West African skies excites me less.
Have you not experienced such turbulence on any flight? Regular occurence on BA the Sky LOS - LHR round about Ouagadogou. Also had nightmare always night BA flight JFK-LHR or Continental NWK-LGW. Continental's was by far the worst. Only bad one I had on Nigerian local route was Arik Air PHC-LOS when lightening struck the plane during turbulençe getting close to Lagos. Captain was a real speed demon. Lived to tell the tales though
God bless you for pronouncing both names, Lagos and Ibom Air, right cos there are people who butchered those names completely. And plus, 17:05 Welcome to my world, Josh!
Josh, I agree with you. We have become a people that won't tolerate differences of opinion. And people no longer convey their positions on topics with courtesy. I hope that we can someday once again value freedom of thought and defend its expression regardless of agreement. BTW - great video as always!
Love love love the interior colors of the first plane and their uniforms are nice and bright...This is much much more organized than in Nigeria with Air "Peace"...What is the "smoke/condensation" coming from the overhead storage area?
Although the cabin crew who you interacted with from Cote D’Ivoire speak French, they should not be characterized as “the French”, thus associating and generalizing the language with culture norms and behavior.
Hotels aren't that expensive in Nigeria. It's on average around $50. And for flights, due to lack of competition on some routes it's expensive, but on average flights are between $60-$200.
@@JoshCahill Not really, I disagree with you. I think what made that expensive was the agent fee. IBIS HOTELS. It's a hotel chain I first saw in London(for £150) during my UK visit, on coming back home, a standard room was $45 (inflation adjusted) Soo it's probably the agent fee of AIRBNB.
I did Dubai to Lagos with emirates and Lagos to Abuja on air peace return before flying back to Dubai from Lagos with emirates You can get a visa on arrival just have to pay for it . And if you fly from Nigeria make sure you are at the airport 4 hours before not even joking
Oui oui; yeah what to think of the attitude, i'd agree you expect a warm welcome and a smile, so perhaps they haven't been trained properly or perhaps you could say arrogant French way, allthough i never feel that ever when flying for example Air France, allways excellent service with a big smile and that goes for pretty much all french flights i have done except for Air Transat from Montreal, a bit like your flight(s), arrogant service and just not caring what they are doing. On a good note: Love your flights it allways makes us feel we are sitting right next to you... keep up the smiles in the high skies Josh!
Lol....I've been on that same aircraft flying from Abidjan to Abuja. It felt like one engine was shut off and then restarted mid flight.. I was so scared ...lol
I remeber air ivoir in the 1983..the plain was an old fokker 42 from freetow to dakar..8 passenger...two cokoruces in one window..the assistant lady 120 kg..

I am not sure if dropping PCT or Rapid antigen tests is an option. Maybe dropping the prices of the testing could help.

This airport in Senegal really looks sooo good
Welcome to Lagos, Nigeria. My hometown and country. Do have lovely stay.
I flew Air Côte D’IVOIRE back in 2019 and was surprised to see Air France on my seatbelt. And also to have a meal service on such a short flight!

Yet another lovely and well detailed review Josh! Can’t wait for the Nigerian airline’s review come next week I guess.
Best reaction with the guy telling you not to film.
They are bored and are waiting to show anyone they are on duty.

Just imagine you were in the Dash 8 in similar turbulence!
Nice vedio as always! Just a little suggestion, Josh you may consider having a better device to record your voice especially when indoors~
Great trip and video....All the best from your French Patreon in CDG!
$350 for an economy two-hour flight, with dirty seats? That's incredulous! You could have a decent flight on any airline, budget or not, anytime.
Dirty seats..why are you so evil
@@ibrahima1964 you are the evil, watch the video then talk sensibly. I didn't said that, the author and the video proves it.
