Air Serbia is a normal company just like any other. They are trying very hard to modernize their fleet, introduce new destinations, new livery, new uniforms. I have flown many times with Air Serbia and there was no negative experience at all.

Same , I am a dark skinned guy ( mixed ) and I was skeptical about Serbia and air Serbia. The experience was so good, I was blown away. The country was so beautiful, amazing people and absolutely amazing airlines
AirSerbia cabin crew in economy on their short haul flight is aligned with a demand that average Serbian ppl have in hospitality in general. There are no fake smiles, no fake politeness and formality and the service is fast and efficient. They are far from rude and are actually super polite and helpful, however, that approach might appear bizarre to foreigners. It's not only AirSerbia, but the whole country in general. People are super hospitable and friendly, they sometimes don't seem like it. 😅
lol idk about that. My serbian husband thought it was awful and never flew with them again. He said he refused a meal because he wasn't hungry so the flight attendant "snatched" it and cursed him under her breath so he cursed her back and it surprised her because she didn't think he was Serbian lmao.
@@veevi5279 My husband is Serbian too! ^_^ However, I have noticed that mainly the women are rude. One time, the woman got annoyed because she was asking me something in Serbian and I didn't understand. The guys were really nice though.

Westerners often mistake Serbian / Slavic informal and often noisy banter as rudeness. I'm sure folks over in the economy were also having great time, in their own way. 😂
As a Serbian, I can confirm there have been instances of confusion. Last year I took my Brazilian husband to Serbia for the first time. At the airport, when a taxi driver asked us 35 eur to downtown Belgrade, my tone and speed of speech quickly took a not-so-agreeable turn and it was obvious to my husband I was arguing with the taxi driver. Another taxi driver eventually took us downtown for a more reasonable 20 eur. At some point, the taxi driver and I discussed street names and how they changed since my last visit. Once we exhausted the topic we both just stopped talking (rather abruptly now that I think about it, because there was nothing else left to say). In that moment of silence, my husband goes - is everything ok, did you argue again? Puzzled for a second by his question because I had already forgotten about the fact I argued at the airport, I ask him - what do you mean? And he says - what was it that you two argued about until a minute ago? It sounded like the argument you had at the airport. I chuckled and explained we just chatted about street names and everything was OK. This was our first trip to Serbia and he previously hadn't had the chance to hear my interactions in Serbian in various contexts to be able to tell the difference. 😅 It seems the cadence of a simple banter sometimes appears argumentative, although it is also true that we express agitation more readily. I don't know if they'd like to hear it, but I'd compare us to Spaniards and Italians. I haven't been to Portugal yet, but my husband has a few times and he says the Portuguese come across as rude to him. In Brazil, they are apparently much more happy-go-lucky, especially in hospitality. In Europe in general, hospitality is not always so... well... hospitable 😄

There's no time to peel "someone's onions" - it's an airport. People paid to fly, and not to give someone therapy sessions. Professional behavior should be expected.

I'm frequent flyer on AirSerbia (a bit of shame that you didn't show the livery of the plane) and they are growing to become the LOT of ex-yu region, good connectivity, almost 100 destinations, renewed fleet (no more laud atr72-200, as they got atr72-600s now) and the crew is absolutely amazing - 98% of the time. There are a few crew members that are usually grumpy, but that's what you get when you are expanding and hiring like crazy. Overall JU is in my opinion one of the best regional airlines, especially for me flying from Slovenia where we don't have a national carrier, they replaced Lufthansa as my go-to choice
@@milohrnic2023 air serbia rn is a BIG upgrade compared to JAT even in 2010,or even Air serbia 5 years ago New fleet, big network, good departure times and better crew
@@CytrusF1 JAT, JAL is Japan Airlines btw. Business class Air Serbia looks a lot better than the old JAT days, but Noel did mention that economy class was much different. I'm not surprised by the classist treatment.
I've flown on AirSerbia multiple times long haul and in economy I have never had a bad experience, the crew were friendly and it was just an overall peaceful flight every single time with them.
It's not about geography- it's about arrogance. In their heads they think they are somehow better 🙄 ... But who cares .... Its just who they are ... BTW- Serbia is not even "Eastern Europe" , its Balkan and Balkan with three other peninsulas ( Italian and Iberian ) , we are all in South Europe...
I'm not sure if you do all your own video editing/music stuff, but I just wanted to say that I love the addition of cooler music to your vids. It seems like it's been improving over the last several videos (not that it sucked before - just that it's noticeably better). I just figured I'd mention it. 😀
I assume that Air Serbia is the reincarnation of JAT, the Yugoslavian airline,or part of it at least? It's claim to fame being the longest distance anyone's fallen to Earth 🌍 and survived without a parachute!It was over Czechoslovakia as I recall this happened.
yup Air Serbia is the exact same company as JAT, just different name :) Some of the older FA’s comes straight from the communist era, i’ve had a few of them 😅
Yes mate, very British except that he's taken his family over to the USA to live on a permanent basis so I think it fair to say that he's now become an expatriot? Shame really because that's caused me to change my regard for him now. I think it's horrible when people suddenly swap their allegencies.
When most westerners say Europe they're really just thinking about Western Europe, like EU (but with addition of Albania and Georgia, who knows, and well, Greece). But I guess this is a similar debate to America vs USA. Undoubtedly Eastern and Western Europe are extremely different.
Hello Noel! It is nice seeing you fly on Air Serbia! In my opinion, they are pretty decent and they are growing each single day putting a lot of effort to improve. Many new routes have opened and many new planes joined its' fleet! Have a safe travel! :)
I became an Air Serbia fan in September. They offer great Serbian wines on board. Even got my first Serbian language lessons on board “hvala!” Belgrade is under renovation. The weird thing about this is that the last 100 m to/from the terminal is going through a construction site. About dodgy taxis: no, the meter was on , and in a very fancy car. And +-20€ to city centre. At midnight.
I liked when you were “ghetto” traveler , riding economy , but the more subscribers , the more business class trips you make and you are becoming like Nonstop Dan, and losing your edge. It would be so much fun if you could record you being shouted at in economy class. This is just more of the same that is already on RUclips.
Mere mortals like us don't have a zillion miles and, fly in economy. I agree with you and your assessment of Nonstop Dan, he's so full of it sometimes. At least Noel is more humble but, enough of featuring upgraded classes of service that most of us can't afford. We would like to make our own informed decisions when traveling cattle class.
They are all a bit samey - everyone shows you the toilet as if there's going to be something really different in there one day like an outside balcony! Noel repeats stuff loads and loads of times though so slow people like me can keep up (it's surely not lazy editing).
A sign of how little this overseas Air Serbia route is used by anyone other than Serbians and Americans was the fact that the counter agent at JFK was puzzled with you having ESTA --- he apparently didn't even know what ESTA was. Serbians are not eligible for ESTA and need to have a consular visa to enter the U.S. Their Croatian, Slovene, and Hungarian neighbours ARE eligible for ESTA, though, and I would expect some of them to use an Air Serbia connection if the price was right, but apparently, not even they use it much.
@@cohen200, I know, and that's very strange, as Noel himself remarked in the video. There is no reason to demand a visa or equivalent when LEAVING the country, as the U.S. doesn't even have passport control on exit. Yet somehow they were demanding to know how the passenger had entered the country... But the point is, if they ask that at the Air Serbia counter to every non-American passenger who checks in, they should be totally familiar with ESTA, but somehow they weren't.
'Back in Europe, well almost anyway, Eastern Europe at least'....nothing like telling all Eastern Europeans and the countries they come from, that they are not quite European, just Eastern European. Last time I checked you put a foot anywhere in Europe you are in it, or does your Europe only start at France, Germany, Italy and head West.
It looked like an excellent flight. The rude-sounding Economy crew might have been reacting to some rude passengers, which we know are more common nowadays.
Will you ever fly and review economy seats anymore? Majority of people don't fly first class. Be nice to see reviews that people would actually find helpful
In this case Noel had a look back in cattle class and reported back about the rude and harsh behaviour of cabin staff to economy passengers. Enough for us ordinary people to know that this is an airline to miss if at all possible.
The only bizarre thing that I have noticed during the flight is that you would mix “Brandy” which is actually a moonshine with salad…. I must admit if I was one of the cabin crewmembers I would find that combination very odd and assume that alcoholism is behind it. How bizarre how bizarre
Why is it bizarre. To me it is more bizarre that you expect that somebody, who is trying this spirit for the first time would now a right combination. I also think it is even more bizarre that Serbians still roast a pig on a stick in 21 century when air-fryers are available 😉
What exactly was bizarre about your flight? You haven't shown us any of this alleged behaviour. Air Serbia is an incredible airline with the worlds best pilots. I've flown with them many times before and they have been nothing short of spectacular. Must be you!
I loved travelling with Air Serbia from LHR for work a couple of times out in Novi Sad! Glad I wasn't paying for it though as I remember it was a fair old chunk to fly with these guys even in Europe. It makes sense that the cabin crew is ex-Etihad as they still hold a minority stake in the airline with 80-odd percent being government owned - the new fleet being testament to Serbia's charge to be an EU member by 2025. Nikola Tesla Airport in Belgrade is also an interesting experience with a mini air museum in the departures terminal, your bags in the arrivals hall coming out the boot of a Fiat 500XL which are made in Kragujevac and still being the only airport i've travelled to where i've been on a plane during de-icing. Would love them to introduce more transatlantic routes not only JFK-BEG
Serbia will never be a member of the EU partially because 80% of Serbs is against and and partially because the EU and old enemies of Serbia won't let Serbia in. EU is toast, BRICS is the future.
7 Thank yous in 1:51 seconds..not your record though. 4 thank yous in 3 seconds when boarding too Another over sensationalized title to get attention...nothing bizarre about the flight in fact it looked quite nice...Not fair to Air Serbia....
I never had any issues with any cabin crew going from Canada to Serbia . Flew JAT , air Serbia , Lufthansa , air Canada , air transat etc . For me all airline crew are nice and respectful . I think air Serbia has the best food
It should be "you can't deny that's a beautiful plane"....otherwise you are saying the plane isn't beautiful. There is no denying that I couldn't get this wrong unless I really didn't want to.
Type it with a colon and it's sort of fine. "You can't deny: 'That's not a beautiful plane.' " Good pickup, I didn't notice it. Multiple negatives that are supposed to cancel each other out but technically don't are quite common in spoken English. You won't never see me making that mistake.
I have flown with Air Serbia a few times on short haul flights within Europe. I find them to be quite ok. And transitting in Belgrade Airport is pleasant as well. Just be ware of the taxi drivers at the airport, as they are often a bunch of bandits. Air Serbia is certainly better than the old JAT that used to service belgrade Airport.
I've flown Air Serbia many times. Never had an issue in economy. Best to pick the exit row. More leg room. I fly that route every other year. We have great pilots.
What do you have to question about Air Serbia as a exotic airlines? The only thing you should question, in my opinion is your education, what kind of schools you went? It looks like that school you went and your education is very exotic, if you know, generally, what exotic is. Regards Super ice Man1!
Hi Noel, Regarding Terminal 1 at JFK this was actually the first of the "new" terminals built at JFK, it was launched in 1998, which isn't that long ago but it has aged horrendously. One of the worst features is security which is in a completely inadequate space that quickly gets brutally crowded and overwhelmed. Also, if your plane is a larger widebody parking at gates 1 to 3, does requires a tug to tow into the gate and this can often lead to epic delays as the ground experience at JFK is usually quite chaotic. But the days of the current Terminal 1 are numbered as it will be replaced by a new, much larger facility that will encompass the current Termninal 2 (which is the oldest terminal at JFK still in operation).
Looks like what you get if you make the mistake of ordering a diabetic meal. Known as "rabbit food" although that said it looked unexpectedly fresh and pleasant for an airline salad.
Bizarre!? AirSerbia crew is the top 5 crew worldwide. I used to travel 200 days per year (UA, Delta, Alaska Airlines, Swiss, Lufthansa, Turkish, Latam, AA, Quantas, Tahiti NUI…) and always had a great time with AirSerbia crew (economy class) ❤ last time I flew to NY with my dog (economy) and the crew was so sweet and supportive ❤️
My guess is that you needed to show your ESTA in case the aircraft needed to return to the US for some reason. Many years ago I had a flight Boston to Heathrow with Virgin. We were told the flight was not operating after we had boarded. We should have then gone through immigration again which would require the esta. We were actually wrongly shown back through to departures without going through immigration which caused issues when I next returned to the US....
@@007knick It wasn't too bad. Hey buddy, we can see you left the US (handed in the part of the immigration form you had to keep) and then left again the day after without handing in an immigration form.... How do you explain that? Well, Virgin managed to schedule a 747 pilot to fly my A340 back to the UK and then someone messed up and routed the passengers back into departures as if it was an internal flight. The interesting thing is as soon as I realised I was in the US without them knowing I hadn't left, I went directly to the border staff to let them know and they couldn't have cared less...
@@laurelcreek7 ESTA stands for 'Electronic System for Travel Authorization'. Citizens from nations including the United Kingdom need to apply for an ESTA before travelling the the USA. No ESTA = no entry. If you apply for an ESTA, it is valid for 5 years so for most of us from the UK who travel a lot this is really a trivial issue. Essentially, we need to prove we aren't a convicted criminal or terrorist. The check is to see if a (UK citizen) would be allowed back into the US if the plane needed to return. It really is nothing and for a UK citizen to be asked for their ESTA on departure from the US is a bit unusual.
There'll be Air Serbia flight grate open in Chicago start in May 2023. I do round trip. I hope I can get connected flight to Air Serbia so I can go straight to Belgrade
Great video as usual! I have never flown Air Serbia. I would hope friendly service is universal but you never know. Can't wait until next week! Safe travels.
As a born and raised in New Yorker…..I love how the once mighty “gateway to the world” JFK can end up being such a cattle car dump, but it is, isn’t it. Wonder where all those billions and billions of dollars they spend on it have gone?
Ahhh, JFK. I worked for PanAm at the international terminal in the 80's. It was very clean all the time. Very different time back then. Most every airport and airline employees took their jobs seriously. Most every employee was friendly, helpful, and willing to smile. It was the norm. Even helping with asian flights luggage that used to be over a hundred pounds as PanAm was contracted for the ramp service with various asian airlines with no weight restrictions. The problem is with what NY has become as far as employees feeling they are inconvenienced by the travelers and the airports not holding a standard. The norm now is sterile service with an attitude. Jfk, Laguardia, and Newark are all the same, and it sucks. Never a pleasant airport experience. But let's face it, flying in, through and out of the US is just not fun. Flying middle east and south east Asia is an absolute joyous event.
A member of my family visited the US twice some years ago. He was warmly welcomed at his destination and made many friends during his time there. But the grim officiousness of the immigration officials who on one of the visits actually made him miss his domestic connection, determined him never to go there again. None of his relatives and friends ever want to go there either.
@@rais1953 Yeah, American airport officials like TSA and customs seem to hate their lives and hope to take it out on anyone they can. Wasn't always that way. We have a beautiful country with so much to see, but I don't know if the potential hassle is worth it anymore for foreigners. Hell, they are treating us citizens worse every year. The best treatment you get is by illegally crossing the border from Mexico. VIP treatment. So sad. Sorry they had to encounter problems. I apologize for my nation.
@@davidconley6267 Beautiful country, we like the people but entering and leaving is a hassle. Better we meet on our soil, our immigration people are generally friendly.
Next time me and my family travel to Russia to visit our relatives, we might travel with Air Serbia through Belgrade from New York or Chicago. Since they are loads less expensive than Turkish Airlines.
My auntie was a air hostess in the 1970s for Jat airlines . She swapped shifts with another hostess . That plane exploded mid air . The air hostess aboard fell to earth in the tail of the plane and survived. I think my auntie must have had god watching over her that day

I'm frequent flyer on AirSerbia (a bit of shame that you didn't show the livery of the plane) and they are growing to become the LOT of ex-yu region, good connectivity, almost 100 destinations, renewed fleet (no more laud atr72-200, as they got atr72-600s now) and the crew is absolutely amazing - 98% of the time.
There are a few crew members that are usually grumpy, but that's what you get when you are expanding and hiring like crazy. Overall JU is in my opinion one of the best regional airlines, especially for me flying from Slovenia where we don't have a national carrier, they replaced Lufthansa as my go-to choice
Agreed!!! Better than most!
More like JAT, no?
@@milohrnic2023 air serbia rn is a BIG upgrade compared to JAT even in 2010,or even Air serbia 5 years ago
New fleet, big network, good departure times and better crew
@@CytrusF1 JAT, JAL is Japan Airlines btw. Business class Air Serbia looks a lot better than the old JAT days, but Noel did mention that economy class was much different. I'm not surprised by the classist treatment.
This guy is full shit!
I've flown on AirSerbia multiple times long haul and in economy I have never had a bad experience, the crew were friendly and it was just an overall peaceful flight every single time with them.
Actually go back to back into economy before passing judgement.
What you see is not necessarily what you get.

I'm not sure if you do all your own video editing/music stuff, but I just wanted to say that I love the addition of cooler music to your vids. It seems like it's been improving over the last several videos (not that it sucked before - just that it's noticeably better).
I just figured I'd mention it. 😀
I assume that Air Serbia is the reincarnation of JAT, the Yugoslavian airline,or part of it at least? It's claim to fame being the longest distance anyone's fallen to Earth 🌍 and survived without a parachute!It was over Czechoslovakia as I recall this happened.
Yes, JAT was direct rebrand to Air Serbia. Everything JAT owned is now owned by Air Serbia.
yup Air Serbia is the exact same company as JAT, just different name :)
Some of the older FA’s comes straight from the communist era, i’ve had a few of them 😅

Not really BIZARRE but hey another fun video!
What do you mean by "im almost in Europe"? Balkan is cradle of Europe.
When most westerners say Europe they're really just thinking about Western Europe, like EU (but with addition of Albania and Georgia, who knows, and well, Greece). But I guess this is a similar debate to America vs USA. Undoubtedly Eastern and Western Europe are extremely different.
@@yaush_ Educated westerners know what Europe is and which countries are in Europe.
Hello Noel! It is nice seeing you fly on Air Serbia! In my opinion, they are pretty decent and they are growing each single day putting a lot of effort to improve. Many new routes have opened and many new planes joined its' fleet! Have a safe travel! :)
I became an Air Serbia fan in September. They offer great Serbian wines on board. Even got my first Serbian language lessons on board “hvala!”
Belgrade is under renovation. The weird thing about this is that the last 100 m to/from the terminal is going through a construction site.
About dodgy taxis: no, the meter was on , and in a very fancy car. And +-20€ to city centre. At midnight.
it's all good. Belgrade has two hours of electricity per day, and you can flush the toilet once a week. God help you, if it is more than once.....
Wow, Air Serbia seems to offer everything! Maybe I can even find a Serbian babushka wife on Air Serbia!
@@carrisasteveinnes1596 i think you never was in Serbia.
@@carrisasteveinnes1596 looks like the last time you've been to Serbia is back in 1995
How's the NATO damage to the city? They may get again, If Kosovo flares up again.
Air Serbia is a throw back to the days of JAT & the old DC-10s. Those were the days
JAT - "Jugoslovenski AeroTransport". I flew in the 70s on Sud Aviation Caravelle as well, going with my parents from Belgrad to Dubrovnik on holidays.
And the bizarre part is where exactly??
Complete subtitles are back! Top video as always Noel!
Thanks for that!
I liked when you were “ghetto” traveler , riding economy , but the more subscribers , the more business class trips you make and you are becoming like Nonstop Dan, and losing your edge. It would be so much fun if you could record you being shouted at in economy class. This is just more of the same that is already on RUclips.
Mere mortals like us don't have a zillion miles and, fly in economy. I agree with you and your assessment of Nonstop Dan, he's so full of it sometimes. At least Noel is more humble but, enough of featuring upgraded classes of service that most of us can't afford. We would like to make our own informed decisions when traveling cattle class.
NS Dan is a prissy dud. Noel keeps it real despite class and isn’t a snob.
They are all a bit samey - everyone shows you the toilet as if there's going to be something really different in there one day like an outside balcony! Noel repeats stuff loads and loads of times though so slow people like me can keep up (it's surely not lazy editing).
@@waarce perhaps Noel could make a walk through and show Econ classes when he’s not seated in them.
@@Chris-dm9eu is not the same. He needs to sit and fly in cattle class.
Show more economy experiences please. Would have enjoyed seeing you getting shouted at and prodding the crew. lol
Too right!
Yep, we don't fly first class we have relatives to look after.
A sign of how little this overseas Air Serbia route is used by anyone other than Serbians and Americans was the fact that the counter agent at JFK was puzzled with you having ESTA --- he apparently didn't even know what ESTA was. Serbians are not eligible for ESTA and need to have a consular visa to enter the U.S. Their Croatian, Slovene, and Hungarian neighbours ARE eligible for ESTA, though, and I would expect some of them to use an Air Serbia connection if the price was right, but apparently, not even they use it much.
Not true. Every time I fly, I see passengers from all over, specially Middle East and Asia?
@@cinoeye, most of which are not eligible for ESTA and also require a full consular visa.
@@goytabr But he wasn't entering the US; he was leaving.
@@cohen200, I know, and that's very strange, as Noel himself remarked in the video. There is no reason to demand a visa or equivalent when LEAVING the country, as the U.S. doesn't even have passport control on exit. Yet somehow they were demanding to know how the passenger had entered the country... But the point is, if they ask that at the Air Serbia counter to every non-American passenger who checks in, they should be totally familiar with ESTA, but somehow they weren't.
That was odd, how international airport personnel doesn't even know what ESTA is. 🤔
'Back in Europe, well almost anyway, Eastern Europe at least'....nothing like telling all Eastern Europeans and the countries they come from, that they are not quite European, just Eastern European. Last time I checked you put a foot anywhere in Europe you are in it, or does your Europe only start at France, Germany, Italy and head West.
It looked like an excellent flight. The rude-sounding Economy crew might have been reacting to some rude passengers, which we know are more common nowadays.
Is it true that Serbia uses oxen and wooden carriages as taxis?
Једино ако Вас упрегну.
I used to fly on business nearly every week in the 80s - champagne all the way and no riff-raff - so glad I'm retired now.
A bit of a snap judgment.
@@carrisasteveinnes1596 yes, but it’s still a little difficult as they still have square wheels 🙄
Will you ever fly and review economy seats anymore? Majority of people don't fly first class. Be nice to see reviews that people would actually find helpful
Agree
I think he flew business. Not first Class
@@satianable h8
I remember that he was asked that question in a Q&A and Noel said that his videos don’t do so well when flying economy.
In this case Noel had a look back in cattle class and reported back about the rude and harsh behaviour of cabin staff to economy passengers. Enough for us ordinary people to know that this is an airline to miss if at all possible.
What was so bizarre about that flight?
No loo review, Noel. You missed that one :). I was so looking forward to the loo review on Air Serbia's A330.
The food looked really fresh!
The only bizarre thing that I have noticed during the flight is that you would mix “Brandy” which is actually a moonshine with salad…. I must admit if I was one of the cabin crewmembers I would find that combination very odd and assume that alcoholism is behind it. How bizarre how bizarre
Why is it bizarre. To me it is more bizarre that you expect that somebody, who is trying this spirit for the first time would now a right combination.
I also think it is even more bizarre that Serbians still roast a pig on a stick in 21 century when air-fryers are available 😉
@@alexbojanic7363 and in Rome they do it to(porchetta) ,so shut up!
What exactly was bizarre about your flight? You haven't shown us any of this alleged behaviour. Air Serbia is an incredible airline with the worlds best pilots. I've flown with them many times before and they have been nothing short of spectacular. Must be you!
I loved travelling with Air Serbia from LHR for work a couple of times out in Novi Sad! Glad I wasn't paying for it though as I remember it was a fair old chunk to fly with these guys even in Europe. It makes sense that the cabin crew is ex-Etihad as they still hold a minority stake in the airline with 80-odd percent being government owned - the new fleet being testament to Serbia's charge to be an EU member by 2025. Nikola Tesla Airport in Belgrade is also an interesting experience with a mini air museum in the departures terminal, your bags in the arrivals hall coming out the boot of a Fiat 500XL which are made in Kragujevac and still being the only airport i've travelled to where i've been on a plane during de-icing. Would love them to introduce more transatlantic routes not only JFK-BEG
Flights to ORD start May 17. Tickets are already on sale. They want to commence one more TATL service later this year but its not sure which.
F the EU and their pseudo American corporate BULLDHIT I will be ashamed the day we sell out
Serbia will never be a member of the EU partially because 80% of Serbs is against and and partially because the EU and old enemies of Serbia won't let Serbia in. EU is toast, BRICS is the future.
Another great video. I watch them all, thanks a lot!!!
7 Thank yous in 1:51 seconds..not your record though. 4 thank yous in 3 seconds when boarding too Another over sensationalized title to get attention...nothing bizarre about the flight in fact it looked quite nice...Not fair to Air Serbia....
I never had any issues with any cabin crew going from Canada to Serbia . Flew JAT , air Serbia , Lufthansa , air Canada , air transat etc . For me all airline crew are nice and respectful . I think air Serbia has the best food
Did you say "Lufthansa as an airline is terrible?" I would say it's one of the best, honestly.
Lufthansa is most definitely not one of the best.
Bizarre? Looks like a great flight to me!
Trying to get my head around “you can’t deny that’s not a beautiful plane”
Triple negative?
It should be "you can't deny that's a beautiful plane"....otherwise you are saying the plane isn't beautiful. There is no denying that I couldn't get this wrong unless I really didn't want to.
Type it with a colon and it's sort of fine. "You can't deny: 'That's not a beautiful plane.' " Good pickup, I didn't notice it. Multiple negatives that are supposed to cancel each other out but technically don't are quite common in spoken English. You won't never see me making that mistake.
I have flown with Air Serbia a few times on short haul flights within Europe. I find them to be quite ok. And transitting in Belgrade Airport is pleasant as well. Just be ware of the taxi drivers at the airport, as they are often a bunch of bandits. Air Serbia is certainly better than the old JAT that used to service belgrade Airport.
@@mickn8331 in Bulgaria is the same
anyone able and willing to drive shall better hire a car than take a taxi.
Yes, there are fake taxi drivers. The old one was JAT, not JAL.
Noel, the best part of the video is to watch the majestic takeoff of the airplane. I highly recommend not speeding up that part.
Agreed. Speeding up the video and adding music is unusual for an Aviation channel.
Thanks for this vlog. Safe travels. Happy Holidays! 🎅🎄🎁
I've flown Air Serbia many times. Never had an issue in economy. Best to pick the exit row. More leg room. I fly that route every other year. We have great pilots.
10:22, thanks for the laugh lol. Once again a great flight review Noel :)
My pleasure!
Thank's Noel
The captions have them wanting to see your "Esther", which is funny in its own right.
Noel is doing it again, flying on the exotic airlines we all question and going to the respected Airlines' countries and showing us what's like!
Is it really that exotic?!
Air Serbia is not exotic at all, just another European airliner
@@YTinjustice we’ll all I have is tiny feeder airlines at my airport aa eagle, delta connect, and United, and lcc frontier and Allegiant
What do you have to question about Air Serbia as a exotic airlines?
The only thing you should question, in my opinion is your education, what kind of schools you went? It looks like that school you went and your education is very exotic, if you know, generally, what exotic is. Regards Super ice Man1!
I assume we skipped loo review and skipped breakfast. By as Noel says, “nevermind” 😂
i believe its because both loo's and breakfasts are more less standard on all wide bodies everywhere.
@@miroslavmilosevic1040 but he tries to do that always (almost)
Noel testing pampers episode 🤣
Hi Noel, Regarding Terminal 1 at JFK this was actually the first of the "new" terminals built at JFK, it was launched in 1998, which isn't that long ago but it has aged horrendously. One of the worst features is security which is in a completely inadequate space that quickly gets brutally crowded and overwhelmed. Also, if your plane is a larger widebody parking at gates 1 to 3, does requires a tug to tow into the gate and this can often lead to epic delays as the ground experience at JFK is usually quite chaotic. But the days of the current Terminal 1 are numbered as it will be replaced by a new, much larger facility that will encompass the current Termninal 2 (which is the oldest terminal at JFK still in operation).
Please dont ever order the healthy option again Noel lol. The meal is the main attraction for me
Noel ordered it so we didn't have to XD
Looks like what you get if you make the mistake of ordering a diabetic meal. Known as "rabbit food" although that said it looked unexpectedly fresh and pleasant for an airline salad.
Bizarre!? AirSerbia crew is the top 5 crew worldwide. I used to travel 200 days per year (UA, Delta, Alaska Airlines, Swiss, Lufthansa, Turkish, Latam, AA, Quantas, Tahiti NUI…) and always had a great time with AirSerbia crew (economy class) ❤ last time I flew to NY with my dog (economy) and the crew was so sweet and supportive ❤️
Another excellent video Noel. Thoroughly enjoy your adventures.
Many thanks!
My guess is that you needed to show your ESTA in case the aircraft needed to return to the US for some reason. Many years ago I had a flight Boston to Heathrow with Virgin. We were told the flight was not operating after we had boarded. We should have then gone through immigration again which would require the esta. We were actually wrongly shown back through to departures without going through immigration which caused issues when I next returned to the US....
That sounds like a nightmare, especially the US thinking you had done something wrong!
@@007knick It wasn't too bad. Hey buddy, we can see you left the US (handed in the part of the immigration form you had to keep) and then left again the day after without handing in an immigration form.... How do you explain that? Well, Virgin managed to schedule a 747 pilot to fly my A340 back to the UK and then someone messed up and routed the passengers back into departures as if it was an internal flight. The interesting thing is as soon as I realised I was in the US without them knowing I hadn't left, I went directly to the border staff to let them know and they couldn't have cared less...
What does ESTA stand for?
@@laurelcreek7Electronic System for Travel Authorization
@@laurelcreek7 ESTA stands for 'Electronic System for Travel Authorization'. Citizens from nations including the United Kingdom need to apply for an ESTA before travelling the the USA. No ESTA = no entry. If you apply for an ESTA, it is valid for 5 years so for most of us from the UK who travel a lot this is really a trivial issue. Essentially, we need to prove we aren't a convicted criminal or terrorist. The check is to see if a (UK citizen) would be allowed back into the US if the plane needed to return. It really is nothing and for a UK citizen to be asked for their ESTA on departure from the US is a bit unusual.
There'll be Air Serbia flight grate open in Chicago start in May 2023. I do round trip. I hope I can get connected flight to Air Serbia so I can go straight to Belgrade

Ahhh, JFK. I worked for PanAm at the international terminal in the 80's. It was very clean all the time. Very different time back then. Most every airport and airline employees took their jobs seriously. Most every employee was friendly, helpful, and willing to smile. It was the norm. Even helping with asian flights luggage that used to be over a hundred pounds as PanAm was contracted for the ramp service with various asian airlines with no weight restrictions. The problem is with what NY has become as far as employees feeling they are inconvenienced by the travelers and the airports not holding a standard. The norm now is sterile service with an attitude. Jfk, Laguardia, and Newark are all the same, and it sucks. Never a pleasant airport experience. But let's face it, flying in, through and out of the US is just not fun. Flying middle east and south east Asia is an absolute joyous event.
A member of my family visited the US twice some years ago. He was warmly welcomed at his destination and made many friends during his time there. But the grim officiousness of the immigration officials who on one of the visits actually made him miss his domestic connection, determined him never to go there again. None of his relatives and friends ever want to go there either.
