I posted this video a few months ago but due to a copyright issue had to take it down. Just in case you are wondering. Everything has been resolved and hence I wanted to finally share it with you guys. Enjoy and a happy new year! 😊 love you guys!
Here I am thinking that I was a time traveler, because I remembered watching this vid when it was originally posted. Good that you tasted some of the veggies! There were some "unique" editing around that moment that I won't comment any further. Happy New Year Josh and everyone 🥳🎉😇
The video about Myanmar was very interesting and nice 🎉
so, where's your driver's info?
Why do they have RHD vehicles when they drive on the right?
@@EurobazzMyanmar traffic used to drive on the left. The change took place in the 1970’s.
It changed from driving on the left to right on the orders of a dictator.
All existing (RHD) vehicles were suddenly required to drive on the right. Also a lot of inexpensive, used Japanese cars are imported into Myanmar. (Japanese market cars are RHD.)
This continues down into the 21st century.
My father was a diplomat and we spent 2.5 years in Burma in the late 70s. It's such a beautiful place and the Burmese are the nicest people on the planet. The Shwedagon Pagoda is incredible. We used to holiday at Sandoway Beach (now Thandwe) and it's comfortably the best beach on the planet. Used to fly on their F28 from either Singapore or Bangkok. When flying from Singapore they used to announce that if there were strong headwinds we'd need to land in Vientiane to refuel! There were only ever 10 or 12 people on that flight but it was loaded to the brim with meat and alcohol for the ruling Communist class. On my first trip the hostie asked if I'd like coffee tea. I answered tea, please, and she filled my cup from the one jug she was carrying. Turned out it was coffee + tea + milk + an industrial quantity of sugar! Was good, though. Thanks for the video and for bringing back good memories.
Beach near Thandwe (Sandoway) is called Ngapali nowadays :)) Glad that you had amazing experience in Myanmar :))
"Coffee or tea? How about both?" lmao
a beautiful place indeed. sad to see it all destroyed.
i am from myanmar but the military sucks
I'm from Myanmar 🇲🇲... If you need a personal assistant for yr journey, I wanna have an opportunity to serve you, brother... It would be the exit of hell, brother... I won't make you upset, will do whatever you want... Please give me a hand
Thanks for sharing this Josh. I've travelled extensively in Myanmar and was last in Yangon for 4 nights in March this year (2023). Such lovely, friendly and nice people living under the current regime. Yangon was obviously more subdued than previous visits, but there was no heavy military presence in the city as outside observers might imagine. Daily life continues but there is a scarcity of foreign visitors, lack of foreign trade and shortgage of electricity at times (virtually all places have their own generators). Burmese food is delicious too. I really hope that the country resolves it's problems and the lovely Burmese people can improve their lives.
They moved their capital city, so military leadership live far away.
Thank for your kind words! You're welcome to come vist again! ❤😊
It's a shame about all the troubles that has happened there. It looks like a beautiful country especially when Top Gear went there
they barn child alive
And eat them
seriously@@superchoacolate
Who?
I was there in the mid-80s, friendly population, horrible government. Back then you had 7 days and then….GET OUT per the government and heaven help you overstayed. I had a friend from Perth who overstayed one day… not good. I was hoping to get back there after the Generals were ousted and a civilian government formed. Sadly, it appears that Aung San Suu Kyi, was not quite the angel the world had been led to believe. Now the Generals are back and she is rotting in a prison. Burma (Myanmar) can't seem to catch a break.
i am from Mizoram, India which is near Myanmar, i guess the Military are trying hard to cover up the war, war is still going on in the Villages
Sure,I am from Myanmar,the current situation is the resistant group (ethnic arm group,PDF) are trying to occupied the almost evey region with 1027 opreation.Now only yangon mandalay and naypyidaw only the big citys have under the junta military.They can't control the evey region.
True I live in Myanmar PDF good AA good NUG good RFA good BBC good 😊
Tbh the milatary are the bad ones cus the burn the people alive in the villages and the did the military coup
@@EaintWadiko RIP ENGLISH
RIP to your parents @@cezarmagicchess3665
Awwe that’s so nice of you thank you for visiting our country and sharing it!
Me too
Yeah ty
I am from Myanmar 🇲🇲 ☺️ too Thank you
I have had the pleasure of travelling extensively throughout Myanmar. My absolute favorite country in Asia. The most friendly, polite and genuine people you will ever meet. Hope to get back soon.
I always read the airline magazine. After the military coup, many countries have imposed sanctions on Myanmar. This means the airline companies have difficulty getting spare parts for their aircraft. Apart from this, Yangon is really worth a visit!
think it's not an issue for the airlines, as the planes operated on international sectors are all foreign-leased.
Exploring the city was a very welcome addition to the flightreview. Great.
Terrific video Josh! My heart goes out to all the people in Myanmar. Like many countries who have horrid oppressive governments, their people are just trying to live their lives and make a living. The people are who make a country, not their governments.
Really?
right
Way to go Josh. I love what you're doing.
I always read the magazine. It gives me the first hand impression of the PR of the airline's board management. On top of that I can learn about the fleet and routes of the airline.
Same I go first to the route network and fleet pages
Yes, but unfortunately since Covid a lot of airlines have discontinued the Flight Magazine. Turkish Airlines used to produce an excellent Flight Magazine but now it has stopped, unfortunately.😢
@keithhardy8513 Yeah I've noticed the same with THAI Airways and even Swiss I think..no more in-flight magazines.
I also read the inflight magazines. Unfortunately, many airlines have decided to save money and not publish them anymore. But I was happy today when flying Vistara and seeing that they still have an inflight magazine.
So a two hour flight - a beautiful pre-departure beverage and menus....and on the big three in America you would barely get a snack basket once while the crew sits in the front on their phones. I love your reviews to put our transportation experiences in the US in perspective. Thank you Josh as always!!!
The standard of service in Asia puts Europe and America to shame. Even in economy class. Budget airlines here have made it a race to the bottom.
He’s in Business Class.
Brilliant. Really enjoyed the trip. What beautiful people. Happy New year Josh.🇬🇧
Hi Josh, what a great video, I was sent to Rangoon to work back in 1976 and lived in the 'Strand Hotel'. What a thrill to see it pass by your taxi window on your drive around town. When I was there all those years ago it was run by the military, so sad to see its done a full circle.
Happy New year and all the best from a hot Perth Western Australia.
Cheers.
Thanks for your trustworthy reviews. Really appreciating the fact that Josh is taking mostly Eco flights which gives the majority of the subscribers a great impression of what to expect. Great differentiation to other aviation vloggers. Cheers, thank you
We appreciate your visit to our country. It suprises me the fact that foreigners are visiting Myanmar despite the concerns about its situation. Love from Yangon ❤
I visited Thailand and escorted a bike team from Bangkok to Chiang Rai a couple of months ago and got to experience so much culture and many new things. Is the culture in Myanmar similar to the culture in Thailand?
I also been to Myanmar i have video about it on my channel and its my favorite country in Southeast Asia. I was there in august 2019
It looks so beautiful and I would love to go there someday ♥️
I also travel to Myanmar every year (except during Covid), being from Switzerland/Germany... last time in Dec 23.
I think right@@JacobNascar
Beautiful light shone on a country we rarely get a glimpse into from this perspective. Lovely review for the country, the airline and the crew.
Fantastic look at Yangon - Great airline - loved this..better and better vids Josh looking forward to the next one - Thanks!
Had a wonderful time flying local MAI ATR72-600 as well, Yangon to Myeik . Interesting that they had different pricing for locals and non-locals, and paper boarding passes at that time. Beautiful plane, beautiful place.
what a great place and everyone was sooo nice. Myanmar looks great!!!
What a great airline, if only more had similarly motivated and enthusiastic crew.
Well done Myanmar- nice polite crew, good food and even if the cabin looked dated it was extremely clean. You are a winner. ❤
Wow, just wow.
I had a smile etched on my face the whole video. What a country, what an airline. And I also felt close to tears…given the hard hand they have been dealt.
Most of all I’m left with a passion to visit not only because it looks amazing, but mostly because I want to support the people…they are amazing!
We need a lot of support, especially for now. 😢 We cannot just help ourselves anymore, because of the regime.
Hi Josh, your videos are always awesome... God bless you, mate.
Great Video Bud 👍👍The Driver was absolutely brilliant and so nice 👍👍
Great advert for a wonderful country - One for the bucket list. Well done Josh.
You realize travel there isn’t really smart idea right now
Since Josh is in Asia I rewatched his previous flights on PAL Philippines Airlines and it's fantastic. Hope he will review again.
Love what you do Josh But it’s really hard for someone like me to visit Myanmar with what the military have done to this country. I really hope it all changes soon so tourists will have confidence to travel there.
It won't change "soon". That's a pipe dream. It will take years.
Probably going to be long time with the military being involved
@TheRangerman00 It's not the military per se but the ones funding the rebel groups who don't want peace. Note that I don't support the military per se, but this simplistic fairy tale version of viewing the world is a falsehood. Time to stop watching BBC. They'll never tell you the truth.
They just had a couple of "democratic years", otherwise Myanmar always used to be under military rule...
I am originally from Myanmar and watching from Wisconsin, USA. It is really fun to watch your videos. Thanks for posting this.
Wow,surprising to see you fly on MAI. I’ve just flown on this during Easter from BKK to YGN.The crew were very nice and the meals were buns in economy but it’s enough. Hope to see you do more exotic airline reviews!
Just buns? Maybe that's okay in europe but certainly, not in Asia. Comparing with other exotic carriers itself like druk and maldivian
Man Myanmar seems like a beautiful place! we should all go! looks lovely!
Beautiful smiles from the people of Myanmar. Just for that I feel like flying MAI
You have earned my thumbs up for eating (some) of you vegetables after years of me watching you leave them untouched. I am very glad my daughter (12) has no problem at all loving all veg and fruits. I am very thankful you have made the effort. I wasn't aware many others have made comments relating to this. You did good! Not for US, but for yourself. Balance is everything.
This video was amazing.
Everything and everyone so nice.
I wish the best for all.
Finally someone review this airline !
Looks like such a beautiful country. Happy New year Josh.
😅 almost people want to leave from Myanmar
i am from myanmar ...thanks for visiting myanmar
What a heartwarming episode! ✨
It's always good to see someone showing the bright side of my home, Myanmar. In contrast to what has been happening, our people are really charming, kind and hardworking. May the peace be prevailed very soon to Myanmar ❤
Your people love their freedom thats why they are fighting and whether you agree with me or not as an African I stand with all the rebellion against the government as long as they dont break laws
What are you talking about? Of course, they break the law. A rebellion is the biggest law breaking there is in a country. That's what the rebels are supposed to do. @@terryvarta9306
me too
What are you? Delusional? There is no bright side there especially with the new conscription law.
Take back Rohingyas
Thank you for visiting my country during war and respecting every Burmese individual. You just got a +1 subscriber from Myanmar
another burmese here
me three
@@_ovum
Yeah
Another Burmese here!
Hi fellow Burmese
I am from Myanmar 🇲🇲 ❤❤❤
Oh my goodness, thank you so much for visiting our country! ❤
i havent went to myanmar since 2018 due to both covid-19 and being blacklisted from the country. it feels so nostalgic looking into the airlines and seeing how it has changed 6 years later. i can even smell the inside of the taxi just by watching this video. im glad you got the chance to visit myanmar and hopefully i too get the chance to visit my relatives someday..
a great video!!! Now I want to travel to Mayanmar!! The airline looks great just very short leg room!! Great job
The one thing that struck me, was just how clean this aircraft was kept, it may be old but it has been well cared for by the airline.
Thanks for the review, Hope to visit the country in the near future.
Thanks for the video Josh, as a Myanmar national, thank you so much for a good review of Myanmar. I hope you can revisit Myanmar again once the country is in good shape.
Went to Myanmar in 2017. Flew MNA for two segments and it was really good considering horror stories online at the time about their aviation industry. Some of the most friendly and genuine people I've ever encountered. Hopefully there can be some peaceful resolution to current conflict.
About time I was wondering how long it was gonna take you to finally fly them. Also try kbz for domestic flights next. I took them in 2019 and was very surprised. 🙂 They fly an Embraier turbo prop.
Great video, I always read the in flight magazine. Wish all the airlines would go back to having them.
Thank you so much for visting our contry❤❤❤
Josh for future, if you want the camera to pick up the view outside when its dark, put the lights out, that will help
So many charmy, warm hearted, lovely, wonderful and beautiful souls - it was a pure joy to watch this episode with all these sweet people and crew you met. They've made such a positive impact on me.🙏🏻🌞🌟 💝💛💖🌟🌞🌝☀️🥰🤗
This video took me back to 1996 when I flew to Yangon to spend time with my father who was the station manager there for Indian airlines and left in 1995 to Myanmar to start the Calcutta- Yangon route for Indian airlines. People there are very friendly. He worked for Indian airlines for 36yrs at various cities like Chennai, Trivandrum, male, Madurai, Yangon but Myanmar was always special for him as he worked with a very young crew and English wasn’t that common then 30 yrs back in that country.
Very polite, made you feel comfortable and welcoming keep up the standard
I have never imagined and thought of you would have visited Myanmar 🇲🇲...but finally you did and I would like to say "a warm welcome to Myanmar" and thanks for featuring the flight review of former Myanmar flag-carrier, Myanmar Airways International, MAI.
If you could spare some times around here, you can take domestic airlines such as Myanmar national airlines, Air KBZ, Mann Yadanarpon Airlines and Air Thanlwin to know how the domestic airlines (mostly operated by ATRs) are like!
MNA also flies international routes (like BKK, SIN).
Take back Rohingyas
I flew MAI a year ago from Yangon to Bangkok, economy, and I liked them quite a lot. Seats a bit cramped, but fine for an hour's flight - sandwich and Myanmar beer served. I particularly liked the fact that when we were boarding priority was given to a large group of Buddhist monks, whether out of reverence, or simply because they seemed particularly discombobulated, I don't know. In Yangon, the people were lovely, but the atmosphere was very tense.
Means you must have been vaccinated, since back then, being vaccinated was the only way to enter Myanmar.
Yes, Buddhist monks have the highest status in Myanmar, and quite right that they should be allowed to board first ! 👍✈🤣
HAPPY NEW YEAR and its nice to see u eat your greens
Another interestingvideo. Thank you very much Josh.
Amazing country, my next trip must include Bagan. Cant wait to go back!
Is it safe to travel there? Would love to go
Great video, Josh. Just so you know - the only aspect you forgot to share with us is your food experience in Myanmar. It would be nice to share the food experience if time permits. I always read the inflight magazines. I read them before exploring the inflight entertainment.
Great video as always Josh
I had a chance to visit Myanmar on two trips back in 2018. The people were very nice as you had experience.
Had a chance to travel on Myanmar Airlines and another domestic airline on a few ATR flights. The crew were absolutely nice and professional. On a less than an hour flight, they even serve a small snack box, I was very impress.
As for the THAI A380, I think they are selling it. THAI only have 5 aircraft types, B777, B787, A330 (supposed to be gone too) A350, and A320 (from the previous Thai Smiles Airline).
I liked how they handled the plate with tongs, so they didnt have to reach too far
I'm glad you uploaded this video again. I was wondering why you took it off before.
I’m amazed you could get in the country. I have heard it is a beautiful country with friendly, helpful people. Your tour was fascinating. Nice to give Mr. Latte’s information so those who visit can access his services.
I like how you highlight the great crew for their exemplary service.
E-Visa to Myanmar is pretty simple these days, as he had explained. No issues to get into YGN.
I live in myanmar
Once again you don't disappoint Josh, this is a very very interesting video!!
One of my favourite videos of yours! 😊
Thai Airways has put its entire Airbus A380 fleet up for sale in an "as-is, where-is" condition following three years of grounding in Bangkok and Utapao. Although its A380s have not completed C-checks since before the pandemic, the jets are still considered airworthy with no permanent grounding directives.
Went to Myanmar in 2019 was found it an incredible country. The people were so friendly, the food was insanely good and the sights were breathtaking. I hope the situation improves for them and one day I get to visit again.
So friendly that they made their own people refugees.
@@doubler3497 I'm talking the actual people not the military you fool. The people who work in the hotels, the people in the street, the taxi drivers etc are just simply wonderful. The military on the other hand are the ones responsible for genocide.
Thanks a lot for this lovely video, actually I do read inflight magazines a lot, they are often informative and entertaining, their cabin is not bad and I really appreciate you for eating your veggies, I love seeing friendly happy cabin crew
Your video made me so happy & nostalgic as well as so much wanting me to go back and visit my own country & of course my family especially I was missing them so much lately. Thank you for your kindness on mentioning those beautiful things about Burmese people & insights.
Very nice airports💛I can't wait to see your review for our small airline AirBotswana in 2024 if you happen to visit Botswana 🇧🇼
Really enjoy seeing these rarer airlines, great video Josh, did you enjoy those greens 🥬
We are proud of you!
Happy New Year! Fly and travel safely. Cheers.
Great video! The golden pagoda was stunning. I'm looking forward to your travels in 2024. 😃
I flew Yangon Airways about a decade or so ago when it was also impossible to fly there direct. Flew between Mandalay and Yangon on an ATR 72 which was an awesome experience. Crew were great and even had a doughnut selection box as an inflight snack! Loved the ATR 72.
You almost finished your greens…I’ll give you a B+ for effort Josh! Wishing you a Happy New Year. Looking forward to what’s in store for ‘24! 👍
Good job on those greens!
I don't know how I feel about doing a vlog going to Myanmar with the current and ongoing military situation. It's civil war, guerrilla warfare outside the few areas the soldiers control in the larger capital cities. I live 20km from Myanmar in northern Thailand. That vegetable in Thai is Khaanaa, hope you enjoyed it.
Carefully
Wait wait wait ! MIN AUNG HALING!💀
Nice to meet you😊!
u deserve a subscriber from myanmar
Hi Josh, Just regarding your question on the Thai Airways A380s parked at Suvarnabhumi, I read an article in the Bangkok post awhile back saying there are 6 of them for sale with the condition of sale being that the buyer either makes the plane airworthy or salvages it on spot. Basically saying no deliveries. It’s really sad to see these beautiful planes parked on the ground with the paint fading. Thai Airways has allow announced they are upgrading their fleet with new efficient aircraft, I guess time will tell to see how that goes.
I'm flying business class from NYC to Bali and Singapore on ANA soon. Gonna be there a whole month. Really excited.
I never thought about going to Myanmar.
After your video, I doubt I'll bother. I'm more excited for Vietnam/ Cambodia.
Lovely video...keep going Josh❤
Thanks for coming to our country 😊
WOO HOO you did it!! Vegetables 🥗 🥦. I’m proud of you Josh. I really love ur work. Was just curious…. Do you ever do flight ✈️ reviews in German? If not, why not? Reason I’m asking is because I’m Swiss and I have relatives in Bern Switzerland 🇨🇭 and they would watch you if you spoke German in some random reviews. I’m saying this in a good way. Ur the best.
And I love the music 🎶. Can I download that music?🎵
A* award for eating your greens! Love your videos and really envious because I never ever get an empty seat next to me when I fly! You look like you have the plane to yourself. ❤
I hope you have a HNY Josh. Thanks for all your work. Much appreciated. Be well
Old Plane, no entertainment system, but compensated by clean and well maintained cabinet, nice service and good food, still get customers' satisfaction.
By the way the crew in blue on 24:00 is very beautiful.
Just to remember, there are two - yes - *TWO* airlines with Myanmar prefix, Myanmar *Airways International,* and the other one being Myanmar *National Airlines.*
I hope you will fly the MNA someday.
That's a very important point of information. I'm surprised Josh hadn't mentioned it.
Lovely country with wonderful good mannered people.
Mentioned this too in my comment. MNA is the national flag carrier.
Have a Happy New Year, Josh.
Please come to Japan next year!
I enjoyed my visit in Yangon... also flew via MAI... indeed the people were so nice... from 🇵🇭 here...
Why are they destroying these beautiful innocent people and the country.....
A potato? Kinda brown on the outside 😂😂
HAPPY NEW YEAR and all the best for you😃
