I always touch the doorway and usually tap it as well. Not for luck, but to remind me that despite the graceful ease with which this huge bird will lift itself up high into the sky, it is still one huge, very heavy, chunk of metal. Nice report.
Nice report. I was interested to find out that SS is one of your favorite airlines. I flew from Odessa, Ukraine to Warsaw and from Warsaw to London on one snowy day/night in January 2013. Everything about SAS was the best flying experience I had ever had. The flight crew and ground staff were extraordinary. I had been recovering from a broken back and had limited mobility. SAS had a concierge attend to me and I rode in a ambulance type vehicle out to the plane prior to all other passengers. Chopin airport had recently been built and was spectacular in every way including cheap prices on 350 ml bottles of vodka! There was a lot of snow and I had to wait a few hours because London was socked in. What could have been a miserable experience was actually fun.
I absolutely love SAS and they knock spots off BA for our regular UK>Sweden hops. Årlanda airport is awesome too, very well laid out with some great facilities including 2x Max bars!
Always enjoy watching these. I'm another door frame tapper! Always a double tap but not for luck, more as a greeting to my old friend the plane as I love flying.
You had a very early start on a Sunday morning to publish this video mate! Glad to see it freshly "delivered" to my tablet this morning.. always something to enjoy. Thanks
Very nice Paul - Thanks for sharing. perfect weather for your flight from ARN - such a scenic country side. Love the close up of the winglets. Funny comments about your trousers (were these joggers? ;-)
I’m pretty late to this video, but great job! Keep up the good work! Me and my family flew with SAS from Copenhagen to London Heathrow this June (I’m Swedish). Though we did have a lot of problems with canceled flights and delays, we still got our money back, but it seems as though they are having problems with that this summer... we flew on one of their new a320 neos to London and were supposed to be put on the exact same airplane back to Copenhagen, but that flight got cancelled so we got put on the next one which was an older a321. I’m pretty sure the a320 neos are operated by SAS Ireland! The older airplanes are really starting to show their age...
I was on the same flight as you! I didn't think it was you at first, but i now recognise your polo shirt! I agree with you, their planes are a little bland, but comfortable.
this is what I like to see economy review , cause most of us are not flying first class anytime soon , I do 2 long hauls a year, it would be nice to see you do a review in economy on a long haul
Great video. Never thought of touching the door frame for luck before. Not your fault, but I wish they wouldn't show an ad in the middle of video. Spoils it a bit.
Great report, great airline. MY airline! I worked for SAS for just over 11yrs. Norwegians eat at the airport, and that costs even more! They have spent £150 at least before the board the aircraft, and the complain that they had to pay £50 for the air fare. Not my type of thinking. MLK who?
It's so daft.... during the takeoff footage I instantly got that pang of angst/pain that I always get on leaving Sweden.... that takeoff view is so breathtakingly beautiful that it makes it all the more worse
I always touch the door frame to the right, not necessarily for good luck but instead to see how solid the plane feels. Didn't know anyone else did that.
Thought so ! I am busy booking a positioning flight from LHR-TXL with onward connection on QR to CPT via DOH. Nearly half the price instead of flying out of LHR. Not sure if Mrsflame3601 will be happy thou with my money saving technique ! haha got until next year to brake it you her ;)
I just love this film. I like SAS too, but BA is better to travel with for me as I always want my dogs to go with me. SAS never allow dogs in the plain.
bolidenplan Indeed they used to. But the current A320Neo's are used to replace the old 737-600s and 737-700s in Sweden and therefore based at Arlanda and operating flights from there. Later deliveries will be split between bases at Copenhagen, Stockholm, Malaga and Heathrow. So from Later this year most flights between Heathrow and Scandinavia will be operated by A320Neo's
Do people ever say first on this Channel? Well! First! By the way! How do you keep all those pounds off? How can you exercise when you are always in an airport somewhere? I touch the doorframe for good luck every time I board a flight. The music was better this time too!
No way here I'm thinking I must be the only one, yes you bet I always touch the door frame as I'm walking in and it is for good luck. I'm also superstitious so do the math and I never have and never will fly on the 13th uhhh
One of the things which annoys me about many RUclips videos, including to some degree yours, is the music. Why do you assume that your taste in music will be shared by your viewers, and why do you think anything is added to the experience when it becomes overly loud? Regardles of anyone's individual taste in music you're going turn some of your viewers off. I think the reason most of these vlogs have music at all is the idea from Hollywood (maybe right in the 30's when people had limited access to music, but so wrong today when people have unlimited access to what they really like) that film needs music, whereas the best have little no music, or just music of the scenes (like James Blick on Spain). So my advice is to turn the volume down and make it more soothing, make it pertinent subject matter, use it more sparingly at a lower volume, or best of all, get rid of altogether.

Another great trip report, Paul. Yes, I always touch just to the right of the door when boarding. It's just one of the things I do!
I absolutely love SAS and they knock spots off BA for our regular UK>Sweden hops. Årlanda airport is awesome too, very well laid out with some great facilities including 2x Max bars!

+Speedbird1 FLY Cheers 👍🏻

Good Report! When I flew to Arlanda, I flew Norwegian and was very impressed. I have never flew SAS though
TERRIFIC! I like your style (and content). Thanks for sharing. Wish you sunny skies.
+Mclean Milne Thanks!
I would be very interested in seeing a review on SAS ARL-LAX, premium economy or business class!! Great video as always! :)
I Look forward to your trips man it's like being there :)
+airaction2257 Thanks!
Thanks Paul.. The surrounding area of Arlanda Airport looks so rural, must be a fair way out from the City, I assume!
+Kevin Duval I think it's about as far from Stockholm as Gatwick is from London - quite a way!
Paul's Trip Reports Oh right, 20+ miles or so! Hope a good transport link from the City.. Thanks

Good morning! beautifuel vídeo SAS ✈👊👏👏👏
A nice and good video...as usual !Thank you.
Great video again I hope you carry on making great videos
I was on the same flight as you! I didn't think it was you at first, but i now recognise your polo shirt! I agree with you, their planes are a little bland, but comfortable.
+choberry You should have said hello!
Paul's Trip Reports I just wasn't sure! I had just connected from a flight from HK with SAS, so meeting a youtuber was the last thing on mind. 😂
this is what I like to see economy review , cause most of us are not flying first class anytime soon , I do 2 long hauls a year, it would be nice to see you do a review in economy on a long haul
Awesome report Paul! SAS have a nice product but those proces are just insane!
Brendan
Awesome! I really love the A320neo!
Always touch the frame
Great video. Never thought of touching the door frame for luck before. Not your fault, but I wish they wouldn't show an ad in the middle of video. Spoils it a bit.

Nothing beats SAS
It's so daft.... during the takeoff footage I instantly got that pang of angst/pain that I always get on leaving Sweden.... that takeoff view is so breathtakingly beautiful that it makes it all the more worse
I always touch the door frame to the right, not necessarily for good luck but instead to see how solid the plane feels. Didn't know anyone else did that.
Hi Paul , another wonderful video ! I was wondering was this the inbound segment of a positioning flight ?
+Joshua Fleming Yes it was :-)
Thought so ! I am busy booking a positioning flight from LHR-TXL with onward connection on QR to CPT via DOH. Nearly half the price instead of flying out of LHR. Not sure if Mrsflame3601 will be happy thou with my money saving technique ! haha got until next year to brake it you her ;)
what a views! I´m afraid to fly but sometimes I want to do it.
I always make sure I place my foot right on the threshold of the plane between the airplane and the jetway before I walk onboard.
Very nice video! Really enjoyed it! :)
Yes, I touch the frame for good luck. I thought I was the only one who did that.
last time i flew into arlanda was on a sas dash8 😮 we managed to land without the wheels falling off
Your all videos totle best best best
I just love this film. I like SAS too, but BA is better to travel with for me as I always want my dogs to go with me. SAS never allow dogs in the plain.
The intro 😍😍
Yes I touch the door ALWAYS
Could you not take a can coke from lounge onto the plane? Thanks, Paul for the vlog.
+Jon Brown No, the only soft drinks they have are on tap in the lounge.
That's crappy!
What happened at 12.47 it went from disembarking at LHR to leaving the lounge at ARN?
+Shane Ward Don't think it does?
Very classy traveling in sweatpants...
Can't believe how skinny the wings are.....Where's the Jet A Go?
Dude in the safety card has no pants on!!!
I always touch the door frame
Nice
hm i thought sas only used the 737 on the arlanda-london route
bolidenplan Indeed they used to. But the current A320Neo's are used to replace the old 737-600s and 737-700s in Sweden and therefore based at Arlanda and operating flights from there. Later deliveries will be split between bases at Copenhagen, Stockholm, Malaga and Heathrow. So from Later this year most flights between Heathrow and Scandinavia will be operated by A320Neo's
You are best
I touch the plane for good luck!
Why in your videos i see so many times airplanes of LOT polish airlines?
+Filip Antonow Maybe it's a coincidence!
When you think will be this tripreport in LOT business class?
It will be from or to Wasaw.
+Filip Antonow Hopefully in the next few months. There's a good fare to Katowice from London, via Warsaw.
Paul's Trip Reports Thank you
Do people ever say first on this Channel? Well! First! By the way! How do you keep all those pounds off? How can you exercise when you are always in an airport somewhere? I touch the doorframe for good luck every time I board a flight. The music was better this time too!
Not one of your best. Usually think you are 👌but this was spotty camerawork, at best
6:40 what is that?
+Aero air Some sort of motocross track.
I always touch the door frame for good luck 😀
I like to touch it just because when people say they saw that I can say I touched it
3 € for a coke is normal in german resturants.
I am from sweden😄
:)
No way here I'm thinking I must be the only one, yes you bet I always touch the door frame as I'm walking in and it is for good luck. I'm also superstitious so do the math and I never have and never will fly on the 13th uhhh
25 sek / 3 euros is normal for a can of coke in sweden😂
Really Scandinavia... Best interior you can do? Terrible.
