@@chase588 was that in the lounge, before take off or landing? I skimmed through and only saw the Dr Pepper I had with the meal before landing.

@@heisenberg1271 very jealous as its one of favourite hotels. Nice mix between modern and old school. We sadly have never had breakfast there, may be you can let us know what you think? 🍳

@@JettTyler17 😂 I survived. Do you have an Iron Maiden 747 model?

@@liftoffandtravel Yes, funny story there, I got it in Budapest at the Aeropark in 2022 and on my way back through airport security at Budapest Airport- my bag was pulled as they found a "sharp object", after a search of my bag which turned up nothing- they found out it was a long metal file inside the model of the Ed Force One Boeing 747 model which formed part of the structure... How ironic that I was pulled over in an Airport over an Airplane Model!

Thanks for watching Jimmy, certainly a wonderful way to start the trip. Sadly yes no freebies but I don't have status with Hyatt. Did get a wonderful colourful pen that was a nice touch.

@@callum9880 Just a rucksack

It's been some time but I believe both planes have a USB A socket

According to wiki it closed in 2014 for a 3 billion baht renovation so sounds about right.

Thanks 👍 haha yes he's a cutie

@@liftoffandtravel likewise....ur handsome man too! hello from Kuala Lumpur...guessed u've been here based on ur previous videos. hope u both had a good visit of KL

@@TheEdmal25 Thank you 😊 Malaysia 🇲🇾 is one of best trips ever. Visited Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi and Penang. Would you recommend anywhere else? We are more city people but loved being the middle of nowhere in Langkawi 🌲

@@liftoffandtravel oh there's aplenty more to visit haha. Malacca a historical town. About 2 hours from KL city. There's East Coast. states (Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan) where its a little laid back with beautiful islands and beaches ie Perhentian Island, Redang Island and Tioman Island all in the South China Sea. Other than the beaches u could also try experience in the Tropical Rainforest (guided) in Taman Negara (National Park). There's full board chalets with activities for u to lodge and experience the tropical outdoors

@@TheEdmal25 we typically get 10 days at most in a country because of connecting flights etc. How long would it take to visit Prthebtian or the rainforest? We are revisiting Langkawi next year but the North side for a change. Not sure if I can get Brent to walk up the bridge with the hands. He's not a fan of heights.

@@petermcgrath7887 my ticket was booked with British Airways onboard the A380 and then the flight was rescheduled. So I opted for American. As Americans is a One world Airline you should be able to use the Cathay lounge either way 👍

To be honest the device is a bit of a nightmare. Probably should have just returned it. I rarely use it for what I do. Just wanted to get it to work having bought it. The other question you ought have fixed if the background noise is loud say a train or plane I'm no sure how to adjust it so I can be heard.

Thanks, appreciated. Currently away so unabke to change it. Will Definately come back in the future and try the legacy carrier and hopefully their new shiny A350s 😍✈️

Thank you, yes a few people have mentioned this. Clearly I was the last one to know 😂 Totally agree, I have heard a few not many moan about the livery but I think it's brilliant especially as they decided to go with so many colours. Truely iconic! 💛💙❤️💚🖤

@@liftoffandtravel But it's an easy mistake to make. After all, Condor was a LH subsidiary for decades. The Lufthansa Group only sold it's last Condor shares in 2009.

@@olfrygt Thanks, I'm not even sure how I missed news articles stating it. Then again it wasn't until June this year that I realised GOL had applied for bankruptcy.

Great points, one can hope but as you say it's a low cost carrier so every inch counts. It's a shame we didn't get to try Air Indias actual short haul service. May be in a few years we'll visit again.

You will probably be on the Airbus A330 ✈️ might be the 1:2:1 seating not the regional 2:2:2

@@liftoffandtravel flight is at the end of August, but at least in seating pre-reservation it showed the 2-2-2 seating arrangement, I do get to enjoy the 1-2-1 with an A350-1000 from Frankfurt to HKG though 😂

@@DonRaynor I think people panic with 2:2:2 because they have to share with a stranger but for such a short flight you'll have taken off, been fed and landing before you know it. Oh wow, been a long time. Hopefully the will have the burger as a mid flight snack when you go. Could enjoy their signature drink at the same time 😊

@@liftoffandtravel Honestly. Wouldn't mind having a Taipei Local next to me. I'm moving there for a year, I'd have so many questions and things I'd want to learn, They'd want to escape the plane before it lands.

@@DonRaynor not sure what your interests are but there is a very pretty village to the north of Taipei, lights, gift shops and fresh fish stalls. You could try a very unusual blunt knife massage, which will leave you sore 😂 And if you like your cats there is a cat village 30 minutes away. My friend who was there for 6 months also explore the south and the countryside. Either way sounds exciting 🌍

Thanks for letting us know

Must try it next time! What was your fsvourite thing about it?

Very jealous! You'll have amazing time. The safety video is captivating.

Ah I see, thanks for letting us know

Thanks 👍 we were lucky to fly it and find the points availability

Thanks for watching 👀📺 it was a nice easy flight with a few surprises. I suspect although can't guarantee that you need a visa in order to transit in India. We had this issue before but it was separate flights with one night in between at a local hotel. Try reaching out to Air India on twitter? May be you could email or call the local Indian Embassy?

Thanks Richard 👍 this one was eye opening. I wonder how the interior will look in 5 years.

Could depend on country but in my case was not required

Oh? Sounds like you had a bad experience.

@@liftoffandtravel no 😺 just pissed as we lost our (quite old) flag carrier (LAN). haha!

@@ilovesheryterry I hear your pain. I was gutted when TAM left One World and joined SkyTeam 😔

That's a great point about short notice. Interestingly whilst in Budapest I checked the flight for the next day back home and was surprised to see it was still £52 ($70) The hotel was full so would have expected the price to be jacked up high. I really hope they continue to fly because they are a sound airline ✈️

Is that in addition to another bag? I took only a rucksack and that was fine but also checked in a suite case. However I have status. If you type in to Google Qatar carry on baggage you might be able to find the specific sizes

Did you stay in the same room? It's a very mysterious hotel. Beautiful swimming pool. What do you enjoy most about it?

Thank you, that really made our day 👍 we don't see the point in dragging these out unless it's relevant. Be sure to also look at the Sheraton which shares a pool with the Hilton. Plenty of shops, barber, restaurants and 7 Eleven and it's an easy walk from Terminal 3!

I'll put it down to not amazing signage. That's useful to know though. Will keep an eye out next time 👁️⌚

Thanks for letting us know 👍 Where do AKG mostly cater to?

@@liftoffandtravel The brand mostly produces studio equipment (microphones, headphones, ...) geared towards professional use. But since they were acquired by Harman in 1994 (which later became a subsidiary of Samsung) they also began producing for a broader consumer market (i.e. at lower price points). For details just go to Wikipedia :-)

Mind blown! Had to Google it. Am I right in saying they were until 2021 when they were bought out?

@@liftoffandtravel LH was a shareholder till 2009.

@@Mario-ch9nl Interesting, I'm learning a lot 😊

Sadly it's become common place. Hoping since their A350s are back in place after the paint issue there might be more stability with swap outs.

Based on what you saw for a 2hr flight does the food look better? Would be interesting to see what the long haul offering is like.

It may not be beautiful but a simple splash of colours makes such a difference. Our favourite is either Doha or Changi. What's yours?

Thanks 👍 yes it is a beautiful product just a shame it's only the 777s. It's interesting you say they are slow perhaps that's the style. In London you are often rushed in and out of the table at a restaurant because the next table brings more profit but in Hungary for example the service is slow because the table is considered yours for the evening. Interesting I raised this before in an aviation group that BA on their A350 took 3hrs+ from Sao Paulo and I was sitting in the middle of Business. Next time I fly them I'll keep an eye on the service time. Either way glad you enjoyed them 😊

Yes avoid the seats that are 3:4:3 across the plane. The 787 is a friendly 3:3:3

@@liftoffandtravel I am travelling on their 3-4-3 soon. Perhaps I should get a Comfort plus seat? I believe they are better

@@mancunianinlondon Definately worth considering but what is the cost of the upgrade to extra leg room. Qantas wanted $150 😨 for a throne seat and a recent 2hr flight with Wizzair was $30... If you've got money to spare then great but if not they are all the same just extra leg room. So debatable.

We wish we could afford that 😂

Its also a question of prefference(not to be alone on the plane and have the feelings that there is someone else even u dont seem them in ur business suite only by take off and landing., or if someone doesnt waste too much of CO2😊)

@@liftoffandtravel regards from the pier hongkong tea room😅

@@eliasbergman2073 new worry unlocked 🤣

@@eliasbergman2073 jealous! Been a long time since I ventured in to there. What was the sweet treat? Do they still have the Hong Kong custard tarts?

Thank you for watching 👀📺😁 still a great product, food was good even though half of it wasn't available 🍲

Thank you, really appreciate the comments 👍

That's unfortunate, how was the service? Did you get more of a snack than I did?

@@liftoffandtravel I got a stroopwaffel on the way out with drinks, the flight back was drinks only if I recall? the videos are on my 2018 US Tour playlist.

@@JettTyler17 a Stroopwaffel sounds pretty good. Odd that on the return it was only drinks. Was that a late flight? I know AA ditches meals if its considered a night time flight. Hard though for passengers to know where the cut of is though.

😂 Did they wake you up or leave you be?

@@liftoffandtravel my mom only woke me up once everyone else finished enjoying the buffet 😂🤦🏽‍♀️. All I could eat before I got too tired was a bowl of cereal lol

@@amira5387 not sure whether she was being kind or she wanted the last of the food 😂🍲

Are your flights on the same booking?

@@liftoffandtravel yes but bs airlines PC number change only

@@mohammadsoyal7311 to be honest my passport doesn't require a transit visa. Have you checked your government's website for more information? Or the Turkish immigration website?

@@liftoffandtravel website name sir my Indian passport

I don't know which country you are from but as I may not speak the local language I wouldn't like to guess. Just Google "do I need a transit visa for whichever passport" in your local language Beware of third part websites which might charge you more.

There are so many factors to consider. The 787 is smaller so less time waiting to get of and collect your bags. You would be amazed how long it takes to unload the baggage from an A380! Personally I'd probably always pick an A380 but Q Suite is a joy. The First Class is wonderful but doesn't feel as private when it's busy. Either way you are bound to have an amazing service on Qatar 🇶🇦✈️

Thanks Alan, glad you enjoyed the video. We have a separate one for the other lounges including the one with the bath tub which is pretty incredible 🛀 Are you going to the lounges or you were just curious to have a look?

Thanks got the info 👍 always curious about the ratios

That was lucky 👍 What did you think of the product and service?
