Nice video mate, the MEL-CBR flight was too short so the BNE light would have been a perfect length. Nice chatting in MEL briefly.
thanks Paul, nice seeing you in real life again :) All the best!
My two favourite AviTubers!
I fly regularly from Sydney to Hobart return so I will undoubtedly be flying on one of these A220's soon. Thing is, I absolutely love the old Qantaslink B717's that I always fly on that route simply for that vintage DC-9 era rear-engined narrowbody look & feel and those incredibly loud, near-vertical take-offs & climb-outs that shove you hard right back into your seat that you just don't get on a Qantas B737-800. However just like a 25yr old car, they are undoubtedly fun and old-school however a brand new car is always going to be quieter, more comfortable and bang up-to-date.
Nicely said! Even 10 years ago when I moved to Australia, I couldn't believe the 717's were still flying. We're lucky to have them in Australia!
damn, one of the first few reviews of the Qantas a220.... Jayden Wong upping his game
Really keen to fly them! Awesome as always mate!
thanks mate!!
Nice trip report. The A220 is such a cute, little, comfy thing. It's just FlyDubai makes the Max look amazing. Would love to see a fully kitted out A220 like that.
Greetings to your boyfriend and family.
FlyDubai does have a very nice business cabin, was kinda hoping QF's to look like that!
never been to AUSTRALIA but it is definately on my schedule
Amazing! Glad to see you really enjoy it!
thank you very much! :)
Loved this vlog and can’t wait to fly on the A220 myself! ✈️😀
you'll love it!
Awesome aircraft! Happy to see Qantas renovating their fleet!
Rory Ding Travels was also on the Mel to Canberra inaugural flight.
Thanks for the great trip report Jayden! I can’t wait to fly on the A220 soon.
you'll like it, thanks for watching!
Looking good Jayden. Congrats on getting this flight. I enjoyed this trip report, relaxing, with chill music. I never realized how large Australia is. I flew the A220 on Air France twice this year and you've captured the aircraft well. Your editing and video photography is excellent.
Australia is basically USA without the big cities and aviation hubs in the centre haha. Thanks Gary!
Great video as usual old boy. As a Canadian, I am proud that you flew on and enjoyed a Bombardier plane! Yes! It was conceived, designed and built in Canada but the a-hole Trump gov’t put such a huge tax on each one, not one airline would buy it. So…Bombardier sold the aircraft to Airbus for one dollar! It is still put together in Canada as well as the US with wings from Ireland! 😎. P.s. I noted your obsession with the really excellent coat hooks. Well done Jayden. Cheers, Colin
Hi Colin, I got an A220 postcard of the Airbus prototype livery, it carries the Canadian flag! Very pretty. I just read about the $1 deal, so interesting!
Very nice report, hope to book an A220 flight here in the US sometime soon.
the Delta A220s look fab, would love to fly on them soon :)
Catching up on your reports today! Great as always.
You rock!
Nice! I saw your aircraft come in to Brisbane and got a photo of it.
Nice video….was waiting to see a review of the new A220. And good to see a more positive Qantas review. Nice job!
thanks Colin! :)
Good job Jayden. I will have to give an A 220 a go at some point. Cheers
thanks Peter! :)
Love the vid!
thanks Kent!!
Well done as usual Jayden you looked happy❤
thank you so much!! :) every flying day is a happy day
Good work Jayden, always been apart of your team. Another great video! From Adelaide
thank you so much! :)
Yes such a great video..well done !
nice!! good call to take the longer leg to brissy
Great Trip review!! And Thanks for reviewing The Westin Brissy
thanks Bradley!! :)
Excellent!
thanks Thomas :)
Beautiful Air Craft And Great Video
Thank you Gunvald!
Nice review Jayden & ive stayed at the Westin Brisbane, nice hotel with awesome swim up bar
thanks for watching! Loved the hotel
Nice for sharing mate!
thanks for watching!!
@@JaydenWong ♥♥♥
Awesome Review, the new A220 looks pretty good! 😀
thank you! :)
Great review as always mate! Thanks for the mention! Keep up the great work! I agree with your summary, it has some things like the USB-C, Wifi, and Universal sockets that are great but compared to the padding on the 737 it leaves a lot to be desired, and if this plane were to operate flights to southeast Asia an IFE would be ideal, and it isn't game changing either.
spot on! Not game changing. Nice to meet you bud!
@@JaydenWong thanks! It was great to see you again too!
Great video Jayden
thanks Louise!!
This experience was awesome 😎
thanks Kevin, was a great day!
Great video, Jayden! I like the A220 overall. It provides a more comfortable and quieter ride than older aircraft. Too bad there was no AVOD, but I assume QANTAS will use these for shorter flights. At least they have the phone holders and power plugs to support using your own device. Surprised to see you staying in a Marriott instead of Hilton. 😊
QF is going AA I suppose 🤣 the A220 can go as far as Singapore and Bali from the right airports, hopefully when they do deploy them on those routes, they'll install TV.
My Brisbane friend has Marriott status and booked me there 🤣
Cool!
Lucky you were onboard the inaugural QF A220 flight! A220 have a slightly long range compared to the 737-800s
Hi Jayden thank you for the video plane looks really nice.
indeed a very nice plane, thank you! :)
I enjoyed it so much
thank you for watching, I'm glad :)
I sure hope that we see more A220s in the future. They're a good option for regional and domestic routes.
Nice video mate
thank you! :)
Fantastic Video! Some 737's do have the 'inflato-belt' fitted in row 4, mostly in 737's fitted with the Boeing Sky Interior, for the most part anyway.
ah interesting, I've only ever had those on the old CX seats, that one was heavy😮💨🤣
Good Morning from Germany 🇩🇪. Nice to see You again😄😉👍. Cold and Fog here. Enjoy ur Trip. See You🙏🙏
thank you! Warm day in Adelaide today. Take care :)
Love to see it. Qantas finally are adding new jets as I thought because their jets were getting old
yep finally! 😍😍
Stunning Video Jayden! It was a real shame I never got a chance to meet you - but one day we will! Feels so strange watching the very aircraft I was onboard depart (also being able to see my gopro strapped to the window haha)
haha you didn't spot me but I sure did spot you🤣
Yoo big fan on both channels
@@JaydenWong You stalkin' me? hahaha
Good video!
Thanks Patricia!
Reminding, the USD is miswritten as AUD
thanks! Unfortunately can't change that now but I will have it right for the Mandarin version :)
Wow, the contest flight was fantastic especially the 220 aircraft to replace a Boeing 717 an ageing McDonnell Douglas design
agree can't wait to see my Qantas A220s at Aussie airports
Love the A220, haven’t flown it yet, maybe someday🙏NO swim suit shots😢
Please fly the inaugural scoot E192 flight!
Nice video Keep up.
thank you! :)
@@JaydenWong do u still do emirates airline?
Good concise report Jayden. Pity the plane is soooo underwhelming. Kinda like Qantas all over. Might be time for you and Mammy to travel first class on Cathay Pacific again😊😊😊
have some flights booked with mammy soon! stay tuned😝
JW & The Mam....new episode coming soon!
Decent seating in terms of legroom I see in the cabin. But how does the rest of the cabin feel? Does it feel cramp? Is there any lower cabin altitude pressure in the A220 like in the A350 and 787?
not at all, the aisle was wide, the bins are bigger and the windows too. Felt quite spacious on the A220. Not sure about the cabin altitude pressure sorry!
Good video
thank you! :)
Jayden as I said in Paul’s vlog it’s a bombardier CS 3000 all,Airbus did was rename it to the 220
Entertaining vlog as always regardless
A proud Canadian plane!!
I think I saw u in the Melbourne Business Lounge - is it okay to come over and say hello?
of course! please do next time :))
That’s how I met a lot of my friends haha
@@JaydenWong will do! 😊😊
I enjoyed getting my free model 😍
sharing is caring 🤣
@@JaydenWong 😂😂
What were you doing in the Melbourne lounge today? Did you meet 6FT 4 in a lounge? Can’t wait for you video on Thursday!
he's in Sydney.
Keep it up Jayden and this was hinted at your Instagram Stories. Speaking of the QF A220 First Class it needs PTV if it must fly Perth to Melbourne/Adelaide which is longer than Melbourne Tulmarine to Brisbane. I wonder if you can compare this to a DL A220 or not?
haven’t flown Delta A220 so can’t tell. But Delta has PTV which is already a step-up
@@JaydenWong thanks for the reply looking forward to it if you can
Hey J
Are you seeing any meaningful changes at QF since the change of CEO?
Hope you can meet Sam Chui since he also have the A220 video of that as well
Come on Jayden, your fellow Adelaide RUclipsr Rory Ding not only was on the inaugural flight to Canberra but he made the Channel 7 news. Lift your game sir.
Lol there needn’t be so many RUclipsrs on the flight to Canberra 🤣
He took it, and loaded it up all in 1 day. Lol
There is enough room for all of these guys- they are not in competition with each other.
They all have different styles of content and how they present- not all styles will appeal to every viewer anyway.
👏👏
hello
Hey Jayden 👋
Food looked tasty in the lounge 😛
Need to get on one of these. Engines are quiet 😮
Pity there's no IFE 😢
Nice replacement for the 717 👍
Nice Pride Jetstar 🏳️🌈
Awesome vlog at the end 👍 Huggies 🤗 bro 👋
Greetings from ADL! yep definitely wish there were TVs, hopefully on the ones that go to Asia/NZ in the future.
Congrats on your Qantas's 1st inaugural Airbus A220 flight to Brisbane. I wish Qantas, Airbus A220 has lavatory inside the lavatory on your inaugural flight to Brisbane, but it's disappointing. I flown the Airbus A220 on Delta for the 1st time, but on the 100 from San Francisco to Salt lake city and the flight is good, 1 and a half hour and what is special about the Airbus A220, they have window inside the lavatory, I love it and I wish all airlines have window inside the lavatory. What's the seat width?
Actually the A220 is designed and built by Canada's Bombardier. Bombardier sold the rights to Airbus for economic reasons. It's a brilliant Canadian designed aircraft.
You are correct if you are wondering why that happened it has to do with Donald Trump's Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross putting a tariff on the plane because they wanted DL for B737-700.
Are they still giving out plane models and lan yards???
just on the very first flight to Canberra I believe
Very concise video Jayden. Where is the other cute boy?
home in Sydney haha
Bro you’re in my hood. ☺️
The international city of Australia!
Good video Mr J ... when are we going to see the speedos at the poolside 😝😝😝
when i have 6 packs 🤣
Is that you or 6'4 ... lol ... you look pretty damn trim yourself mr !!!!
Isn’t this a waste of equipment? I mean how many times did the 717 operate MEL-BNE? Hopefully it’s just for crew familiarisation?
I'm sure it is just for crew familiarisation. I looked up MEL-BNE flights in the future I don't see A220.
11:47 Where's USD? Also was it 179 or 117 AUD?
sorry for the confusion, 117USD, 179AUD
Great aircraft.....great video!
thank you for watching!
HOW MUCH WAS THE TRIP
When is the next virgin review or emirates and theses aircraft are really nice
soon! stay tuned
I will flying with my son for almost retire 717 from syd-lst in 23mar
Are these the new planes from like last year?
this year!
@@JaydenWong Oh ok
With its new Airbus aircraft (I mean the 220 and those not yet delivered) one wonders how V Australia will be able to compete ?
The VA 737 Max with compete with Qantas Airbus neo. Qantas would really stand out if they introduce a completely new J seats, like the ones we see on CX A321neo and FlyDubai. I am flying Virgin 737 Max tomorrow to Tokyo, a very long flight on a narrowbody!
@@JaydenWong Thanks for explaining the situation Jayden. Have a good long flight tomorrow...I hadn't realised V Australia had any MAX 737s.
14.36Mate,how much per night for this hotel compare to the hilton?
Hilton is usually around $320. Westin $280
@@JaydenWong Quite Affordable though🤐🤐
For a 2 plus hour flight, come on, Qantas stop the penny pinching. You could serve more than cheese & crackers. This never used to happen years ago
Hi Jayden. I thought you only eat vegetarian meals these days. Also, some short time ago I saw a video of you and 6'4" going on a trip to Europe; I thought that was going to take several days/weeks and many videos... Did I miss something? Sorry, I'm just confused. 😕
I will post them over the coming weeks don't worry :) many to come haha. I don't post them chronologically for algorithm reasons.
I don't *only* eat veggie meals haha. I eat them as much as I can especially on long haul flights and days I feel like my body needs some veggies. At home, I definitely only eat veggies. When I travel it's a bit difficult as I want to try new food.
@@JaydenWong Thank you!
又有靚仔睇😀😀👏👏👏👏🙏
Well done Melbourne.. nothing ex BNE ..
.. edit X4B returned ex CBR & some 737s have airbags in Row 4 seats
Nice video thanks
Thanks Keith! Love your instagram!
@@JaydenWong Cheers thanks 🙏
I really dislike how Qantas refers to people as customers as opposed to passengers. It’s transactional and sterile.
interesting opinion, never gave it a thought myself. I agree! It's like cabin crew vs stewardess. Cabin crew is more appropriate nowadays
Being the premier Australian flight review channel you should have been on the first flight. I’m also disgusted they made you go to Melbourne. Should have been an Adelaide Sydney service.
haha yes ADL-SYD would've been great. The first flight went to Canberra, not my cup of tea 🤣
@@JaydenWong totally feeling you there.
where's 6foot4?
Sydney haha
I find TVs on seats useless. Everyone has a phone, tablet or laptop so there is no need for them. All they show is ads.
Toilet pictures never needed.......just keep it classy !
Good job, Jayden! Do you prefer the A220 over the Embraer 190? I have flown on both aircraft and although the A220 is remarkable, I like the Embraer E2s. They're ever so slightly quieter on take-off.
for Qantaslink definitely, their E-jets are too old🤣 otherwise I like them both. Both got big windows and are quite quiet
The A220 looks ausome and smooth flying. Can't wait to take a trip on one. Thanks Jayden 😊
The airplane looks like C919
What a great video Jayden and you VH-4XA 💚 🦘 I’m flying on an A220 15/3 Melb-Can
have fun!
