  • Hello,
    Welcome to this video!
    Today's video is a Trip Report onboard the TUI Airways Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner from Melbourne Orlando International Airport to Manchester,
    This was my first long haul overnight flight in 3 years!
    We were 2hrs late departing due to a late departure aircraft but we did make up some time for it during the flight on our dreamliner with strong tail winds over the Atlantic Ocean,
    With arrival into Manchester, we were greeted with a remote stand with stairs to deplane the aircraft which allowed us for some great videos of G-TUIJ, the 787 in question that flew us 😃
    Hope you enjoy :)
    Any questions feel free to ask 👌

    I absolutely love this little airport! It is quite a gem! With this being here, I don't have to use Orlando International Airport about 60 or so miles away. I come to Melbourne, Florida every June for my annual summer one week vacation here. Melbourne is very close to the beachside community of Satellite Beach, Florida. I lived there from 1969 to 1971 as a child in elementary school when my late father was in the Air Force. We lived in the old Patrick Air Force Base south housing units which is in Satellite Beach, meaning the base itself. In previous years when I went there, I used Orlando International Airport and stayed in Kissimmee, Florida because I had no idea that Melbourne had its own airport. So it took me like an hour to drive out to Satellite Beach from Kissimmee back then. Now that I stay in Melbourne, I can drive to Satellite Beach from there in a matter of minutes! Yes, both baggage check-in and TSA security is very quick at this airport being it is nowhere near as crowded as the other major larger airports like Orlando, LAX, Chicago O'Hare, and the like. Not as many airlines operate out of here like at the bigger airports. No they do have the monitors to look at like the much larger airports do for arrival and departure information. But when you get or already have your boarding pass, you just go to your gate and either they will tell you or it is listed there. Even the rental car counter lines when you land and pick up your car are relatively short unless there is a crush during the busy holidays like Thanksgiving or Christmas. It is just not as hectic and easy to navigate your way around there due to its size as I mentioned. This is a nice video. I hope you liked using MLB!

    I flew about a month ago to Cancun with tui on the 787 Dreamliner , and I have to say that it made Ryanair look sparkling clean. The aircraft was disgusting and when you have to spend 10 hours in sitting in filth it certainly wasn’t the best flight I’ve ever been on. With all that , I was pleasantly surprised at the services throughout the flight. Just a shame that such an advanced plane is so mistreated , I think I have seen trains cleaner than the cabin.

    • @kenpalmer1965

      Totally agree…other than more perceived ceiling room due to the cantilever overhead storage bins it’s the same as every other aircraft. No room, a bit dirty and the usual groans and moans from your fellow passengers and their little angels.

    Not being critical but need to sharpen up the whole video presentation and watch the spelling. All makes for a more professional experience.
    Good to see a video for the vast majority of air passengers and not ones in First and Business Class!
    Look forward to the next one.

    We flew in the premium cabin in June. The plane was filthy. On our return flight the steward was a right misery, he was for ever combing his hair and stood behind the curtain drinking the mini jack daniels. When he brought breakfast he practically threw it at you. The breakfast was uneatable. The only good thing was the lounge at Melbourne, food and drinks very good. Come on TUI you can do better. 🤞😎

    I won't fly on the 787 because I need to have control over my window shade. Oh, why do airlines need to close the blinds at night? Its DARK outside anyway! It sounds like TUI aren't too interested in the presentation of their aircraft. Dirty and grubby seems acceptable for them. A nice report and, just a note, there's no "s" in aircraft. The plural of aircraft is... aircraft. Just sayin'
