  • Join my on Air Algerie on my (unfortunately) most disappointing flight. The product was much different than what was advertised, and made the whole experience much worse. The bright spot was definitely the brand new airport terminal in Algiers which was wonderful. Let me know your thoughts!

    Another great review. I love your style and tone. I think when we travel as much as you you do we are sometimes spoilt with the service in premium cabins on some airlines. I too would be disappointed with the first meal it looked dry and bland but the pre arrival meal looked OK ish.. Seat wise being 6ft6 Id have taken its got to be better than economy view for width and legroom but I fully see how you can be disappointed with the cleanliness and shabby old/tired cabin. Have you tried Icelandair's Business class product across the pond? Its Premium Economy Plus id say price wise and service wise with a comfy business class seat, decent lounge in Iceland and free stopover programme on US-Europe Itinenaries

    Excellent video If it right out Frankfurt Germany in Canadian French it's spelled as Francfort sur le Main which is where Air Canada 845 is coming from. Speaking of the air Algérie business class seat old version it is exactly the same as a Cathay Pacific 1990s Long Haul seat and the Regional Business class seats also Korean Air Prestige Class B737-9B5/ER pre retrofitted B777-300 like HL-7573 unless retrofitted to resemble the A321-271N. IFE screen is in your right armrest. I'm wondering which of the Legacy carriers in the United States still use this setup in the domestic fleet.
    US CBP Stamp is MTL for Aéroport Pierre Eliot Trudeau provided you went back to California from Montreal via Newark Airport. For Canadians go to Montreal Airport to Florida they would simply drive to the US border Plattsburgh,NY or Burlington, VT that way they can simply pay the domestic price. There are 2-2-2 business class seats are flatbed example of these in California are the Korean Air Airbus A380 services. Also 2-3-2 flat bed seats SFO/LAX PR Mabuhay Class Korean Air Prestige Class B777-3B5/ER sleeper seats.

    The joys of traveling. Equipment swapping does happen, and it either elevates your experience or forces you to throttle back on your expectations. Ultimately, comfort (discomfort), good (bad), superior (inferior), etc, are relative to the individual and a matter of definition - most notably when there is no choice in the matter.

    This was an extremely informative video , the plane was in a deplorable, unsanitary, and in extreme disrepair.
    The worst parts for me were the following:
    1. The absolute filth , the tray table & where it was housed, the stench of said tray table. The floor that was home to the cockroach. The bugs in between the glass of the window. Which for me , calls in question, the ability of the cabin to remain pressurized ( correct me if I’m wrong) .
    2. The worn & disrepair of the cabin. The lack of air vents , overheating in the seat ( on such a long flight) , The broken foot rest, and tray.
    3. The inattentive nature of the cabin crew, were they too busy relaxing to attend to the passengers? The lack of communication by the pilot & crew.
    4. The food was very disappointing, and unappetizing. Did you later get food poisoning?
    Overall, I would definitely avoid that flight, possibly the airline. Given the fact, that the crew was so inattentive, and prioritized socializing with each other ( on your Montreal flight back to Algiers ) . New equipment won’t correct that.
    Great video, very informative, I look forward to your next flight video.

      1. Air Algerie's planes are always so dirty and It's clear that this is the worst point for Air Algerie. Even though they are less dirty in newer cabin, they remain disgusting.
      3. Cabin crew with Air Algérie are usually unconsistent. Sometime you find an amazing crew that just make the flight look amazing, other time you find horrible person that just should not be working with human being.
      4. Even if the food don't look great in this specific flight, it is usually one of the great thing for Air Algérie. Moreover, no matter what, the food is always clean and don't forget that Air Algerie catering also make the food for Emirates or Qatar, so they have potential.
      The government of Algeria is saying that they want to improve quickly the airline, which they haven't started yet in the service. However, the pre-pandemic economy with Air Algerie was great and Business class was bad and that is because it used to be a family company.

      That’s very true, but that’s also not their market. They work more on point-to-point travelers. People will fly with them for the direct flight options at least

    Hi men, I can understand your point of view, I'm french but each time I go there to visit my family I regret paying 3/4 of a Paris-Tokyo flight for just 2 hours and a horrible service...

    OK as in American Algerian here I cannot tell you how much Algeria pisses me off I flew in Algeria one time and I probably want to go back ever again they are just bad but hopefully with the new airplanes they will be better. I’m willing to give them another chance in the future, I prefer to fly Delta with a stopover in Paris, I definitely understand your frustration and I thank you for making this video to bring awareness to the problem
