    My guess is that one reason the flight was so empty is that it was pushed back by six hours. A lot of people don't have the flexibility to move their flight time so much on such short notice. Some of the people who were going to fly on that flight probably rescheduled to a flight that was leaving closer to their original time.

      Brilliant point. Which leads one to wonder the reason for pushing the flight back by six hours. Such cumulative developments on a repeated basis could drastically jeopardise the new airline's chances of survival. One cannot help but wonder who's running the show, and whether the cause is incompetence at the top or something else. Adding the new stopover is the biggest question --- What financial motive could offset the losses. I wish everyone well and hope they sort things out.

      Maybe they had to take it to the tailor to measure for half a meter taller sides and privacy dividers 😃😃
      Seriously, reverse herringbone was invented for a reason and "feeling open" while being a fancy design concept is disastrous if people can regain privacy at a press of a button. Only Etihad would have money for that kind refit.
      Good example for people to see how thinking and designing need to be connected - like on the neocortex level 😃😃

    German speakers call this little train the "Kuh-Bahn", which is a play in "U-Bahn" (subway/underground, with the "U" being short for "Untergrund" or underground) and "Kuh" being the German word for cow, because of the cow bells you hear during the ride (assuming this hasn't changed; I have used the Kuh-Bahn many times in the past, but not recently).

    Midwest Express…..using DC9’s in an all business class layout, albeit 30 years ago where that consisted of only the bigger seat. But, my company at one point leased a Midwest Express jet for scheduled shuttle service NY to Chicago, I used it a couple of times. Flight time 2.5 hours, Lobster tail dinner served, plane mostly empty. On the NY side, it was great because it was flown from White Plains, but on the Chicago side, it was flown from Midway, which was way further from the office than ORD. The Corporate arrangement only lasted just shy of a year. It was back to using my charm to talk my way onto the Gulfstream IV over to Chicago when I needed to get there.

    does the 600 euro compensation apply for flights between switzerland and UAE? considering Switzerland isn't part of the EU. or are they part of that same agreement with the passenger rights?

    Great video. Very interesting experience and certainly a valid alternative to much more expensive airlines in business class. Moving flights by 6-8 hours is much less appealing.

    Ahhh, Zurich Airport. making my way in for a Schengen departure to find two floors for check-in and kiosks(?) randomly assigned. Looks like a good flight.

    Welcome to Dubai! It's the best time to come, you can probably get it much cheaper in a couple days. It's currently "Eid Al Adha", which ups the prices a bit but then they drop to ridiculous low rates due to the summer.

    So enjoyed this video Noel, a return to the adventurous side of air-travel and something brand new, as opposed to all the other travel vloggers flying and repeating the rather boring First and Business Emirates-Qatar-Etihad rotatons, which we've seen too many times, great fun, thankyou!

    Thanks for the video, Noel. This is the third Beond review I have watched and they have a fabulous product. It was hot and steamy in Dubai when tourism is at its lowest which explains the inactivity at the airport and sleeping/getting an upgrade at the Waldorf for a bargain. You definitely won't get that during the tourist or horse racing season, you won't even get into the Waldorf because all 5-star hotel rooms get sold out during the horse racing season.

    Could be, Beyond had to wait to be allowed/purchase a gate in Dubai for arrivals and departures, other than just being able to use it as a refill station.

    Great video Noel. I love the empty airport, such a rare thing and a massive contrast to just about any other city airport, enjoy it while you can lol. I loved the plane, not seen seats like that before, thank you for taking us with you on another fun journey. Also, you have every right to enjoy your work, we as viewers love to see you excited about things, so please don't feel guilty, your enjoyment is our enjoyment.
