WOULD LOVE A AIR ZIMBABWE B737 200 REVIEW
Josh please where are you from brother
Hi Josh.... Want to fly a super rare bird? Let me know! Let's see if you or others can guess. High wing. 4 engine. Combi... And if you're going from Africa to Greenland, you're heading in the right direction!
Hi Josh. Sorry about your weird experience in Mozambique. I am Mozambican and once I had to "rescue" a friend who went through nonsense trouble on arrival in Maputo, allegedly because there was an error on reading his passport data. It turned out later that the computers at the immigration were not working properly. When I asked to see the screen I realized it was clear enough to the reader to tell my friend was the legitimate owner of the passport. By that time he had already spent 20 hours at the airport, with no access to food, no access to his checked luggage and no permission to enter the country. Fortunately I was able to provide what he needed to survive. All that probably only because he (and I) did not bring the officer any "chocolate". My friend now tells me he will never come to visit me in Mozambique again. So sad!
Muito triste o que se assiste no nosso aeroporto.
Situações que envergonham a todos nós.
Que este vídeo sirva de exemplo e chegue a quem de direito e se faça algo no sentido de mudar este comportamento.
I don’t blame your friend one bit
Uma pessoa normal não visita um país comunista como esses. Ninguém merece Moçambique.
Hi Carlota, was she asking for chocolate or "chocolate"? What would have happened if he just gave her a Kit-Kat bar?
@@MrJayTeeee Lol. I think the immigration officer would have asked him to "speak louder", which is another code for bribes.
I had a similar experience with immigration in Maputo, they were so frustratingly slow and they didn't seem to know what to do. I was extremely tired at the end
Josh, if you do get to fly on a737-200, please show the entire take off & landing - without music so we can all enjoy the roar of those P&W engines!!
Landing: ruclips.net/video/sMmF6mu62U4/видео.html
Flwn on those loads .. back in the day looool🤣🤣🤣🎩®️©️🏴⚘
What bout a de havilland trident 3 ... my favourite ❤
They have them here in Canada. It's supposedly used up north here where the runways are made of gravel
And get a seat next to the thrust reversers, rather than at the back.
They tried to do the same with me when leaving Maputo Airport. Security guard asked how much money I had and how much I could give him in order to return my passport, so I could board the airplane. After saying I had no money at all, he asked me if I could pay him a coffee, which I declined as well. Shocking!!!
greed is not good
Wow, hardly an advert for visitors to Mozambique! Thanks, as ever, for the honesty of your videos.
One person's experience does not summarise the whole country. If you operate in a silo mentality you will be stuck on a postage stamp.
@@777Omwana This is a very typical experience, unfortunately
@@777Omwana When the comments are flooded with visitors having similar experiences, you can be sure it's rampant and may very well happen to you. Also, locals say the same very much.
There are so many beautiful, safe destinations in the world. There's not enough time nor money to see them all so, we pick where to visit.
The African continent would never get my tourism dollars.
Hi, Josh. I’m sorry about your experience in Mozambique. I’m a Mozambican and had some friends coming from Tanzania with the same unpleasant experiences. Hope you enjoyed the country though. 🇲🇿
it's with everyone. refresço my friend
In my country, Nigeria, we call these corrupt ground staff Olé (tief!!!). Glad you caught a shot of her mug. It boils my blood when I see this happening.
Hey I am from Trinidad and we say the same thing without the accent(ole tief)
Hi Josh, as Mozambican I would like to apologize for what you went through at the airport. I wish I could give you a ride through Maputo, it’s very beautiful and interesting. You had a bad experience and unfortunately bribery is institutionalized and it’s being difficult to find honest.
Next time you come Here let me know in advance, I will guide to some amazing places and show more of our culture.
That is if he manages to get through immigration
⁰⁰⁰0
I wish I could ride Josh.
hahaha, we used to call LAM - Late and Maybe when I lived and worked in Tete. We used to regularly take the flight from Tete to Johannesburg, and at times the flight would be diverted mid flight to pick up passengers in Beira. good times 🙂
There's also Airlink on that route
How nice was that Air Zimbabwe 737-200? You should definitely do it!
How about we do it together? haha...
We still have the 767 again which is still in service if my memory serves me right
I have already been to Maputo on TAP AIR PORTUGAL and it was pleasant flights on the A 340. However, corruption was very evident in the police on the streets and at the airport.
flying the 737 - 200 is like going back in time
Hey Josh. I'm Mozambican and I am deeply sorry for the way you were treated upon arrival in Mozambique. Shameful!
Keep it up.
Love your contents.
Uma pessoa normal não vista um país comunista.
i knew LAM would show up on ur channel eventually
the Mozambican Immigration officers are notorious for this sort of blatant asking for bribes, I am Kenyan and the stories I've herd of people getting flown back is just a sad tale, FYI, we are not any better dealing with the same scourge of corruption either, Africa countries really need to work on this, to allow seamless transition of legally travelling passengers with little to no fuss, allows for a very great experience for everyone from arrival to departure, always good to catch a Josh Cahill video, such great content, love it.
You are a brave man! How you deal with all these crazy airlines I don't know. It proves that corruption has not left Africa.
Africa is corrupt indeed.
Welp, seen enough to know I have no desire to ever go to Mozambique.
They have such a unique way of greeting tourists.
Stay in your backwoods then. What country are you in by the way?
@@joyceanthony-huff2914 stay in your backwoods clown.
Yeah, speaking as a Mozambican I understand your frustration. Can’t blame yah.
The world has Billion people who would like to visit our country & we will not go bankrupt because you wouldn’t visit our country.
@@princedanny1473 billions?🤣🤣
Mozambique is such a 'tourist hostile' country. They strangle themselves with illogical red tape and corrupt officials. Plus LAM is unbelievably expensive. A return ticket from Dar es Salaam to Pemba (1 hour flight) is $750, and that's just the start of the experience. Good video. Thanks
Unfortunately being a Mozambican I feel your pain. It is extremely difficult to travel in Mozambique.
Living here since 2013 and i agree with you 💯
Well, I like how they went with chocolate, the bribe code is usually buy me a cool drink!
Why do these counties that need visitors mess people about so much ?
Hi Josh,
Thanks for your clip.
It brought disturbing memories from my trip to Maputo last year.
The people OUTSIDE the airport are lovely, but the airport....
Especially on my departure, no wifi, and corrupt customs officials...
I was stopped at customs during my departure process and was asked by several important looking officers " what money do i have to buy souvenirs"...
I said that i have hardly any cash, and that i will buy souvenirs with my CC...
Than they called to chief officer who requested to check my wallet....
I kept playing dumb, knowing exactly what they wanted...after 20 min hold up,the bunch got tired of me and let me go free.
On one hand it annoys me, but on the other i know these gov employees make redicilous salaries, so who can blame them? Very sad.
BTW, i stayed in the famous Serena Polana Hotel, even the Q of England stayed there once...:)
Not really expensive, around 170$ and well worth the special ambiance and good old days gone.
Any how, on another topic, the B762 still flies for UTair in Russia, especially on long haul like Moscow to Anadyr.
Cheers.
Cheers
Having agreed to work for a low salary is no reason to steal from passengers.....stop feeling sorry for thieves.....
Unbelievable!
@@henryweaver667 i fully agree with you! Honest Mozambicans can prove this has nothing to do with poverty and find this attitude disgusting.
Wow I can’t believe that a 737-200 is still around, that thing started flying even before my mum was born but I do remember flying on a 737 classic series the 300 to be exact back in 99 with a now defunct airline called Airtours.
Hope you managed to have a good time outside the Airport. Maputo won't definitely let you down
Sorry for the experience, it is what it is, I salute your professionalism...keep it up.
Hi Josh, sorry for your experience in Mozambique. As Mozambican citizen and living in the UK for many years now, I feel so nervous when I travel back home. I am treated as foreigner in my own country. Corruption is on all levels, you were actually lucky by having only hand language. Otherwise you would have lose your check-in language or give away all your belongings. Once again and on behalf of good and honest Mozambican citizen, please accept my sincere apologies. Don't get discouraged in visiting Mozambique again, in regardless, still great country.
Hi Josh, sorry for your bad experience in Maputo airport 🙏... we are very good people. Nice channel by way...👌
Yes, many of us are.
What a great Africa adventure.
This was a great series.
Keep it up.
Chocolate .... bless them ! And arrest them lol. Looking forward to seeing your TAP review , am considering them for my Brazil adventure Porto Alegre-Igacu Waterfalls-Florianapolis-Rio. And possibly in their business class.
Just remember that Azul is the best way to travel inside Brazil! Any others and you are asking to regret it..
Mate, no one is getting arrested...that's Africa...that's why they are still in the mess they live in and keep blaming whites for their wrong doing...#TIA
Never EVER surrender your passport and become a non-person, even if you miss your flight. NEVER,
Yep, NEVER give your passport away.
I agree. Even here in the UK I am very reluctant to let my passport out of my hands.
Like they are giving you a choice? Give us or passport … or another option?
@@robertdaniel5461 It can be considered acceptable in diplomatic terms that a foreign GOVERNMENT can take your passport in the case of a bona fide criminal case to prevent a foreigner from fleeing. But the passport is the property of the US government and a private airline company has no standing to take it from you. Before you surrender it, a quick call to the US Embassy is in order. The US embassy should be able to advise you. They could suggest that you surrender but send them a picture of it so they could reissue a temporary passport if you were left stranded for some reason. Or they might advise not to surrender and attempt to intervene with the airline and that country's government (not so likely). In any case, I would at least try to contact them locally by cell phone while at the airport and ask for advice before giving it up, IF you are not in legal trouble. After all, it is US property that the airline is trying to take from you and they may have standard policies and certainly can assist you with a replacement as long as they are aware of the abuse of that govt's diplomatic imperative to allow you freedom of travel across their border. It doesn't seem like a hard thing to do and one should always have embassy/consulate contact information when traveling to different countries.
@@danluzurriaga6035 are all passports in the World property of the US government? He doesn't sound American...
Hi @Josh Cahill , I believe that it could be better to clarify that was not the airline taking your Passport but the immigration , because from one side you have the airline and from the other side you have the immigration.
Klasse Report👍🏼 Air Zimbawe 737-200 wäre schon wild👌🏼
I flew on Aloha Airlines when I was a teenager back in 2005 when my family took a trip to Hawaii. I'll never forget flying on their 737-200s for the inter-island flights. Even back then, flying on a 737-200 in the US was quite rare and special. There were also Northwest and JAL DC-10s and ATA L-1011s at Honolulu back then. It was a different era for sure.
I'd love to see you fly the Air Zim 732. If they still fly the MA60 on domestic routes that would be cool to see too.
Glad you came to Mozambique.
Sad for the situation.
Hope you had good times here, to whoever coming here I'd love to show the amazing places we have.
Yes please come to Zimbabwe, we'd love to have you over 🇿🇼🤗🇿🇼🤗
Yes A 737-200 Review Will Be Good
Bro iam from Mozambique, I apologize immensely about what happened to the authorities, they are very bureaucratic
.
Wow Greenland, had been waiting for it, please give country travel videos including cuisine and places to visit
Just a tip, do whatever you can to not put your camera though the x-ray machine. Its possible that the x-ray machine can mess with the storage on it and corrupt all the files. Ive seen it happen more then once
Also flew Beira to Harare on Mocambique Airlines in 1974!! Boeing 737-200 too
Travelled on that same aircraft (C9-BAR) in 2020. 1 week later, it had a runway excursion. One of the worst flights in my life. Almost one hour waiting on the gate without air conditioning. When we arrived in Maputo, the imigrations office didn't have enough Visa stamps for everybody. And everybody ask for bribes.
Having been to Maputo 2 times from the UK I have never had any problems as I always get a visa before I travel and have always found the staff there polite and welcoming, at Maputo airport they have a lovely cafe upstairs where you can sit and have a coffee and something to eat while you watch the planes arrive and depart, instead of waiting for your driver if you had looked there was some taxi's in the back ground that are yellow and green in color, I also have a friend who is a pilot at LAM and know someone who works for LAM, don't let this video put you off from visiting Mozambique it is a beautiful country and the people are so friendly
L
Josh, not that rare come to Canada there are at least four or more airlines flying the classic Boeing 200 in various roles
Most are Combi and a few have gravel kits as they land on gravel strips to remote mining sites
That's what I taught as well, I think it's Air North and Nolinor at least.
What a totally nightmare experience. If I ever thought about traveling to Mozambique, those thoughts are dead now
Air Zimbabwe 🇿🇼737-200 yes review it. ❤️
Great video! I look forward to you trying Air Algerie :)
No josh your wrong about that thay still use 737-200 combi in Canada especially when you go to northern Canada especially when you go to the arctic north
That’s why he said “one of the last”
Hello my friend, welcome to Mozambique. Im from Mozambique Africa
Airport, airline, service, foodie, Country Review Channel….all in One!,, brilliant Subscribed.
I noticed you made use of your free Emirates pen you got on your first class trip filling out your departure paperwork in Tanzania.
737-200's are still flying in Quebec because they can land on gravel runways up North. Nolinor has the largest fleet and Chrono aviation has one also.
Thank you Josh, such a crazy day for you. I am heartbroken, no loo review 😢
When you are in Cape Town again make sure you visit the Air force museum at Ysterplaat. Ask them to take you to the hanger where they restore aircraft not on display.
Taking the same trip next week. This was incredibly helpful.
In case you need, I'm here to show you the cityyyy
You should really make a separate channel maybe to show your touring experience in the cities you visit! It doesn't have to be all adventurous, probably a simple street exploration and cultural stuff!! :)
You are so so brave... Currently awaiting my first ever solo trip to Paris.. just love your enthusiasm & confidence
I think you will not forget this africian trip .Many experiences, drama ,happy flights and also many fearful flights... I really enjoyed watching every video you posted trying different African airlines such as Air peace ,Ibom air,Air cote d ivore,Air senegal sorry if i missed anything . So happy to virtually travel with you on the above mentioned African airlines .. I also recommend to fly Air Mauritius because recently i had experienced traveling with them in Business class on their A 350 ...Expecting more interesting videos from you .By the way i am from India andyou are my best airline reviewer.. If there is a Oscar award for best airline reviewer you will be the winner
That was an eye opener... Thanks Josh and appreciate your travel advices
07:00 I miss Aloha Airlines. Lost a lot of "miles" when they went out of business.
I live in Hawai’i. We miss Aloha airlines. It was a staple to the state of Hawai’i. I am born and raised in Hawaii and it’s so good to see a piece of our Aloha history still flying. She’s a long way from home 🌸 🌺
All I can say is I have being fortunate to fly on a 737-200 back in my youth days, such a great plane.
I got excited once you mentioned Aloha Air, as I remember the 737's (and their 200's) fondly as a kid! Felt like a mini-reunion with an old friend! But I don't know what you're going off about with "not so fond memories" (save for that one incident that landed safely!)
Miss those jets. It's *definitely* not the same seeing Southwest 737's fly our interisland routes now.
Good job,yes i eill that u take 737-200
I’ve flown that air zim 737 when u was younger, amazed they are still flying
@Josh, This was such a bad experience, however, I heard you say that you are returning home, and I thought the African tour was still on with Uganda Airlines. It will be an honor to host you in Uganda.
I've just come across your Channel Josh.....I am really enjoying it....my sisters and I love travelling to different places....I am a bit on the lazy side so do not travel as much as them.....I love all the atmosphere around airports and airoplanes....so your Channel is right up my alley!!.....makes me feel like I am actually there in person!....Well done and Bon Voyage!
I started watching your channel 2 weeks ago and I am from Maputo this is a video I didnt expect ...real feedback
Great vlog. I'm now always having a bar of chocolate in my carry on
nothing says welcome to tourist to a country when they park the plane right next to military cargo plane
I LOOKED U UP, U WON AWARDS, WOW WHO, WOULD OF THOUGHT U COULD GET AWARDS FOR THIS!!!!!!! BUT WOW, I BINGED WATCHED U, AND IVE SEEN EVERYTHING!!!!!! I LOVE THE LOO REVIEW, REALLY I THINK WASHROOMS, SHOW HOW A PERSON IS CARED FOR!!!!! LIKE IN RESTURAUNTS, THE WASHROOMS SHOW HOW CLEAN THEY KEEP THE KITCHEN, THAT IS WHAT I FINE ANYWAYS!!!!!! KEEP IT UP!!!!!!
Wow, you just took me back in time! I lived in Hawaii for many years and flew with Aloha Airlines regularly. Glad to see the planes are still going strong!
I flew on the Air France 737-200 many many times.as a kid between cayenne,French Guyana and point a pitte ,Guadeloupe with stops in Paramaribo, Georgetown port of Spain and fort de France. We called the “laitier “ = the milk route.It’s small and the engines make a high pitch sound.
Yup 737 200 review would be great
Love Mozambique 🇲🇿, it deserves so much better. Beautiful country besieged by problems. I still hope to visit Gorongosa National Park. Mozambique is one of the poorest countries in the world, so that may explain your cheese sandwich. Tks for your review.🙏
Wrong Mozambique it’s not the poorest country in the world. Mozambique it’s a very rich in natural resources. Like you have rightly said you would like to visit Gorongosa national park please let’s get that right.
@@princedanny1473 where did I say 🇲🇿 is the poorest country in the world?🤔 I wrote, it is - one- of the poorest! I believe it is the 4th poorest, , but it should NOT be. I can only hope it gets its act together, for it deserves SO much more. It is a beautiful country, it's people are lovely, despite the corruption and blatant bribery os some. I just pray Mozambique can get from under all that bad luck and finally thrive and shine.
Josh here is list of Canadian airlines that operate Boeing 737-200, Air Inuit 737-200C, Nolinor Aviation 737-200C ,Chorno
Aviation 737-200C and Canadian North 737-200C
Please, bring chocolate to enter the country ... 🤣
Nice video my friend ✈️😍
Sorry for your flight troubles with Mozambican airline I'm Mozambican living in Europe for 22 years and I went to Mozambique after many years my experience wasn't the problems with Immigration but l was robbed they took my wedding ring and mobile phone by armed robbery I pray that Mozambique Government look into all this problems and make us to be welcome home and to the country
come to montreal we have flights going to the arctic circle on 737-200 landing on gravel runways
Mate, Oman Air owes me $1000 too! I don't think we're ever getting it back. Also, had a similar experience arriving in Pemba, although that flight was on an ATR-72
If you paid by credit card do a charge back.
Heyy Josh,
I am Levin a Sri Lankan who is a great fan of yours. Love all the videos you do man, continue the great work we will be there to support you. anyways stay safe and May God Bless you. Cheers Mate
wonder when Delta Airlines B767-400 ER scheduled to be retired & replaced by A350-1000 . . . the B767-400 ER is rare wide body jet, merely 56 of the B767-400 ER were built unlike the B767-300 ER . . . all 53 brand new B767-400 ER was operated only by Continental & Delta since 2002 . . . it is said that one of the 53 brand new B767-400 ER was configured . . .
l just love at 17:50 the mosque plays!
In 1975, I flew to the Ivory Coast from New York. I had a visa. Upon arrival, they took my passport and kept it until I left. I was very nervous being in a foreign country and not have my passport. When I left, there was a desk drawer filled with US passports. Seemed like the only passports they took were from the US. I empathize with you.
Can they possibly make copies of the passports and use them for criminal activities?
@@GMaviation , I have no idea if they did anything, and it was so long ago, but I did not understand why they took my passport or American passports, for that matter
Compal is very good juice company from Portugal. Coca-cola a few years ago try to buy the Sumol/Compal company and they fail. Now they expand to a lot of countries.
just have some chocolate bars handy if someone asks for it. Or small dollar notes. That speeds things up in certain countries like or not.
As a Mozambican i'm very sorry for the bad situation, and please keep doing what you have doing
Hi Josh
I’m Mozambican and I live in Maputo
So sorry for your bad experience 💔
Fond memories of the 737-200, flew on it many times as a kid in Zambia when Zambia Airways had those and they even had a 707 which I was lucky enough to fly to Kenya, crossing over Tanzania and Mount Kilimanjaro.
A shame about how things went in Mozambique... One thing I was curious about: what purpose does the exit document serve? Entry I can get, but exit?
It is a legacy system for tourists only. It used to be if you flew into the country you had to fly out. When you fly out they need to find the original entry document and match it to ensure you are legitimate. Once you leave this used to be the only record you entered and left. In todays age the computers have these records.
@@devangdave545 ah, a bit surprised they haven't gotten rid of it then. Thank you for the reply.
Yes please do the Air Zimbabwe 🇿🇼.
I didn’t know what to make out of the bribe part, it was extremely hilarious to say the least, chocolates as bribe……such nice days we are living in.
shocking to see the "bribe desk" experience.. chocolate chocolate 🤨🤨... that's too sweet of them..
Oh that will be nice. I’m from Zim🇿🇼 hope you’ll enjoy our beautiful country
Welcome to Mozambique Josh, unfortunately that`s how things are going here. Nice tour
Josh, one of the very first planes I flew on was a 737-200. The engines were so loud! I've also flown the 400. I'm hoping to fly the MAX soon. I likebthe 737 very much!
MAX!! Good luck mate 🤞🏽
welcome to our country
from Mozambique
Flew on that Air Zimbabwe Boeing 737 many times a long time ago! Lovely to see it again.
Corruption is an ongoing issue in most parts of Africa. It’s scary to think that it is a norm.
