I Flew One of The World's CHEAPEST Airlines

- I Flew One of the World's "Cheapest" Airlines! Swoop Airlines is known as Canada's Cheapest Airline, so I travelled across Canada with the goal of seeing if Swoop was a good or bad airline!
After flying Ryanair known as The World's Worst Airline, Spirit Airlines which is known as America's Worst Airline and Flair Airlines which is Canada's Worst Airline, it will be interesting to see how Swoop compares to these other aviation competitors!

Let me know what I should do NEXT! This could be an airline to fly, a place to travel to, I want to turn your ideas into videos for you guys to enjoy! 😉
Finnair or airbaltic please
Fly frontier
fly air koryo
Iberia (Spanish)
Fly middle east
The only reason why they changed your seat at checking is because you're a blogger and they don't want a bad reputation on the airline
No crap Sherlock
FACTS I was thinking the sam thing lol
But they already have a bad reputation judging by the reviews. Lol
bro I totally agree with you literally it was so obvious that the airline was bad but she saw him recording lol like their company don't want to be embarrassed lol this suggests how their company is budget wise but I mean if they changed their attitude this time and apply a negative one on someone else it's a same result your company will still remain the worst
Hes not blogger hes vlogger
3:05 customer service changed in seconds seeing the camera 😂😂
Haha yeah! The employee was great. I chose to blur their face just incase the airline got upset but the customer service was great!

Hi Eric,
I see that you were concerned about flying on the 737 MAX type. Something you should know is that after an aircraft is grounded, they undergo extreme scrutiny to ensure they are safe to fly passengers when they return to service. Therefore, the MAX is one of the safer aircraft you can fly on today. Most low-cost carriers have purchased the MAX because of its incredible fuel efficiency, and the deals they can make with Boeing. You see, during the groundings, a lot of airlines had to cancel their orders for planes that were already built, that means Boeing had to get rid of these planes and the only way is to sell them cheap. Swoop was able to take advantage of a similar situation with theirs. The Swoop MAXes were purchased "second-hand" (practically new) from Norwegian Airlines. Norwegian speced these planes without wifi or seatback power, which explains why the seats are so different from the -800s Swoop has. The product on the -800 is more Swoop's product, a direct copy of WestJet's old economy, but in a higher density configuration.
WOW i
500 had to die for Boeing to fix it, although Boeing is still my favourite manufacturer
I fly swoop
Budget airlines usually do flights in the early morning or very late evening because gate fees are cheaper I think. Also I'm flying with Ryanair tomorrow, and last time we flew with them, the flight was delayed for 10 hours... we were stuck at the airport for 10 hours... 😭
That is true but they also do it so they can get as many flights in as possible.
ohhhh this would make sense!
Same here, flying ryanair for the 1st time tomorrow!
Nice
Yes they are cheaper
That's one factor that keeps the price down
Budget airlines usually fly at odd and inconvenient times
As someone who has flown with Swoop I can say that other than the Ryanair landings it had,it was really good
Dude the checkin workers only made you change your seats because your a blogger so that you don't put bad reviews!
1:44 It’s because it’s cheaper to make flights really early then to make them like for example at a reasonable time like 4:00 PM, this is because probably there is more airlines that want to have their flights in the afternoon then in the early morning
I love your videos. Please do more cheap airlines!
Before I became a pilot for spirit, I flew United as a teen. One year we were boarding for a flight to California. When we got on my younger sister took off her mask to take a drink, as soon as she took it off a rude flight attendant told her rudely to put her mask up after that he told something to the flight crew and kicked us off the airplane.
You should try Jet2 Holidays in England I know it’s a bit of travelling but it’s worth it 👍🏻
Yes! I've been waiting for this type of content! Thanks, you're awesome!
from personal experience, Swoop was on time for both flights, service was good and the cabin was clean. i got to fly on both models in their fleet, too. 10/10 experience in my opinion
(my flight was from Hamilton to Halifax if you were wondering)
The reason why the flights are so early is because early in the morning and late at night the fees on the airports arent as high
Those seats on the second flight are actually the seats that WestJet uses which makes sense. The seats are actually pretty comfortable which is probably what he thought too
Well those aircraft were from Westjet so.
I really miss the Swoop YXX to YHM route, great for getting between the Fraser Valley and the Golden Horseshoe while avoiding the chaos of YVR and YYZ. RIP Swoop.
2 days ago I flew home with swoop it’s good, I also got in the cockpit. The pilot was really nice to. It was not delayed, you can also pick where you want to sit like Ille,middle and window the plane was also not dirty the landing was not good and not bad
Fly an overnight with qantas on an a330 from perth to melbourne, trust me you won't be dissapointed.
Last time I flew Swoop, there was food in my buckle but their customer service is good and I also flew to Abbotsford.
I flew from Halifax to Hamilton it was actually pretty good
Oh I flew from Toronto to Abbotsford
but its not the airlines fault if the uber dosent show up "ughhh I hope the fight gose better"
Just to inform everyone that in this video, Swoop had their own website but not anymore since they merged with WestJet near the End of October 2023
So now, booking a Swoop Airline is now on WestJets website.
Departing Locations:
- Abbotsford, BC
- Toronto, Ontario
- Hamilton, Ontario
- Vancouver, BC
It can also take you to Calgary & Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I know that because I was on a Swoop on November 23rd 2023 flying back to Calgary, Alberta from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 (my First Time on a Swoop Airline) the seats were comfy on the whole flight, the only issue I've dealt with was that someone passed out on the floor and Flight Attendance had to ask if there were Doctors on board, luckily there was 1 Doctor, 2 Nurses and the passenger who passed out was also okay 👍 and we made it back to Calgary Safely (I don't have an answer on what cost the 1 passenger to pass out)
On the outside, it will say Swoop but the inside will say WestJet
Who else loves this series
its super fun to make! If you guys have feedback with what things you like and don't like let me know so I can make them even better :)
Can you do Jetstar in Australia or New Zealand

R.I.P Swoop 2017-2023
Swoop’s MAXs don’t have some features that are on the -800s because the MAXs are not owned by Swoop. They’re leased, which means they’re owned by the leasing company instead of Swoop, whereas the -800s came from and are wholly owned by WestJet, which means they can do whatever they want with them.
@Khoi Le Anh the MAXs are all second hand from companies that couldn’t take delivery. Those companies leased the planes from a leasing company. The leasing company then leased them to WestJet. They were never WestJet planes
Hey Eric try Easy Jet is the best please it will make my day (I thinks is a budget airline) love the vids keep up the good work ❤
Good video. But what about the person in the background? 😂😂 6:00
1:41 I believe it's because earlier flight slots are cheaper for airlines to buy, correct me if I'm wrong though.
BANGERRR VIDEO
Thank you so much!
Love the aviation videos
thank you I appreciate your support!
I used to fly out too my dads every year and when I go on vacation also I always flyed swoop and no joke every flight I had on swoop at least got delayed 1 hour max 2 days
R.I.P. Swoop June 20 2018-October 28 2023
Wait what happened??
@@woah_1234 WestJet is Shutting down Swoop I think, I’m pretty sure WestJet owned swoop (Sorry if I’m wrong)
@@ClevelandAviationStuffi think so to
@@ClevelandAviationStuffWestJet owns Swoop, but they shut it down :(
We flew to Florida on Swoop out of Hamilton last year with zero issues at all. Definitely worth the cost savings!
Fly with EasyJet, Swiss International Airlines, British Airways or Lufthansa
I wanna do EasyJet the next time I am in the EU
@@ericstrukEasyJet is Britains Budget Airlines and one of the Worst Airlines ever due to the amount of Flight Cancellations so Good Luck Mate ✈️✈️💖💖
he was drinking juice😂😂😂
Love it 💜🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Him: “Would you ever fly the cheapest-“
Me: Y E S
UPDATE: SWOOP Has ceased all operations, they dont operate flights anymore
LOL
@@Zerobakiishut up
You should go on the plane called comair
Fly the longest flight in the world in economy class… 😁😁😁 like if you want this too!
This was actually a video I wanted to do
Tysm Eric for this video,i really love this type of content!
Eric I went from Toronto to Abbotsford. I recognize the airport from your video.
How you weren’t scared when you heated it was the type that crashed I would be scared even if it was normal because I’m scared of flying
First 👀
Yay
i flew swoop during the start of the pandemic. flight was already empty, so I asked them if they could put me in an empty row, they did it no problem.
the one “issue” i saw was they’re very specific on when you can check in, i got there early, along with some other people and we couldn’t check in yet. there was also a flight about to depart in 45 minutes and there were some people arriving for that and couldn’t check in so they missed their flight.
The reason why budget airlines fights fly early in the morning/ late evening is because of the cost of landing and takeoff. The airports surcharge for takeoff and landing during prine hours. Usually, major airlines are able to buy these takeoff and landings times due to financial reasonings.
Yeah 25 minutes is such a long time love your videos
Also, you have a lot of catch phrases that you use throughout all of your videos constantly. Such as 'right off the bat' - you may want to diversify your language.
Oh, it's not just Canada. Believe me, I'm in Australia (Victoria) and if I wanted to fly to America there are legitimately flights at 3:25 am. Most are at 6:30 am, but there are some afternoon and evening flights too.
Nice vid eric! Great to see a upload from you! love the vids!
Was waiting for a video like this….
Everyone a moment to honour a fallen airline ❤😢
Can you do the 2 best budget airlines in my opinion which are jet 2 and easyjet.
You should try flying with Lynx Air, they are a new budget airline from Canada
You should do worlds nicest bus and world’s nicest train
Eric is my favorite utuber
Amazing video! 🎉
bro it came out 1 minute ago, the video's 9 minutes long 💀
@@The_Timer_Guy ik, but if you so mad about it, why reply? Lol
@@alexrascon8295 not mad, it's just kinda funny ngl 💀💀
4:02 I’m going to bring my camera to record if I fly on swoop
You can’t fly swoop anymore
I flew on Swoop and it was amazing! Other than the 30 minute delay and the 2 hour takeoff
Thank you for your video. I’m going to Halifax next month with swoop. I’ll be honest I was scared to fly on swoop from the stories I’ve heard, but the ticket was super cheap, I only paid 40 bucks, so i said what the hell. Why not. What happens happens. But after watching your video, I feel more confident
Every Bad Airline you film, always include luggage.
1:50 its because the later the flight the empty the airport so they get more access to ground crew and its c h e a p e r
6:58 bro said right of the bat twice in a row lol
Maybe He should Try Air Canada 🍁
The flights are in the morning good because i have 5 reasons:
Extinct airports (1): Okay, it's never died out at Schiphol, but if you're here at night it's really blissfully quiet here. There are not that many flights yet and therefore fewer people are present. You are checked in faster, customs is a relief and you can enjoy breakfast at the airport in peace.
Less chance of delay (2): Research has indicated that early morning flights are less likely to be delayed. There is a risk of delay from 08:00. The peak of delays is for flights departing around 6 p.m.
Save yourself money (3): Most people will still think you're crazy if you say you like a 7am flight. But… these people will ensure that you can fly cheaper. Because they all turn around again en masse, your morning flight is usually cheaper.
Get rid of turbulence (4): No matter how many times I fly, I just don't like it. Although I am over my worst fear of flying, just thinking about turbulence makes me break out in a sweat. That's why I prefer to fly in the morning; thunderstorms and wind gusts are usually more frequent in the afternoon and evening. So risk-reducing!
More vacation (5): What could be better than discovering the holiday destination on your day of travel? I prefer to arrive before 2 pm. Just to the hotel, check in, freshen up and on the road. An extra half day for a first introduction!
I hope this is usefull!!! 😀😀😀
The reason that budget airlines operate flights mostly in the morning is because most of the mainline airlines are doing flights during the day, and the airport gates are more empty early in the morning.
Have you tried AirAsia?
that plane you showed on your flight back from Abbottsford (8:01) is a 737-8 aka a MAX8 not a 737-800...
Love your vids
Amazing video so good
Glad you liked it
Try rating Scandinavian Airlines. They fly from Copenhagen to Chicago wich is closer to you. thanks for a great video😊
I have flown swoop before it was good except motion sickness
Hey I am new to this channel but I really liked it so you should do Americas best airline from my experience American Airlines is the best but you should definitely try it
Air Canada Rouge and Flair have a new budget Canadian airline competitor!
Pls do more aviation videos!
I understand everything on or in the plane there’s actually very amazing for that cheap price.
Watching it at 7 days old[1 week]
So he thought waking up at 5:30am was bad
But i woke up 2:00am for a flight
I was gonna fly on a Swoop from San Diego to Edmonton but it got cancelled due to Covid and the border closing.
It already conducted its last flight as an airline already, anyway.
3:08 she just change her mind
He said his flights are always first thing in the morning but I feel like it’s the same with every flight because my flights are always early. We will be flying in 2 months and it’s at 6 in the morning!
You should go to guelph air park it’s a tiny airport but there’s a rusteraunt
5:06 Bout that......The Max is now certified to fly again..
Eric you should film a video about icelandair please
I llove youre airline videos!
You need to try Avelo Airlines
@ericstruk you should do flying porter air
PLEASE 🙏 FLY AUSTRALIANS WORST AIRLINE I SUBBED
It is not about Max aircrafts, it depends on the airline. Their 738s are ex WestJet aircrafts but their Maxs are brand new.
I’ve been on swoop from Toronto to Halifax it was actually pretty good
I took Swoop to Las Vegas,it was as good as the rest 😊
i love the b737 800, I have never flown on the MAX 8
Most luxurious, best and comfortable seats I go when travelling with plane.
The reason that they are in the morning are actually because of the price. Ex: Someone is bringing their family on a 7:30 flight. If they go on that flight, they will eat on the plane. which costs more. and they make that the cheaper option.
Day 1 of asking: Can you fly Jetstar New Zealand?
Omg you came close to where we live!
Love it❤️
thank you for supporting!
you should go to Norway and try Norwegian airlines
Maybe do actual airlines reviews too instead of only budget ones! Up to you but I anyways watch and love all your vids!!
I always have flights at night like 04:00 AM and I only had a morning flight once in my whole life
8:00 that's still a MAX haha but you did fly on the 800
