    Quite a good review mate,I personally fly business class often and to be honest,as reviewed by you,it is very fair that you are showing the areas where the airlines service lacked to meet the expectation and also areas which surpassed expectation.
    Thank you for sharing.
    The business class fares are usually double of economy and even if I was in economy ,some of the basics service which lacked such as dirty food table,inattentive crew who forgot what drinks you ordered and also failed to replace your headphones are all questionable because the Airline needs to undertake more training to polish the service delivery.
    Your video was a good insight into the entire experience from Nadi Airport to Syd so was very useful. Thank you for giving the airline an opportunity to improve its service so other passengers don't experience the same.I loved how you recognized the areas of service delivery which needed to be commended and its very fair to do that and equally important is to highlight the areas which lacked in performance.
    The Airline needs to realise that its commercial flights were mostly dormant for over 2yrs so please ensure that now when it is fully operational then its service delivery must be highly ACTIVE & EXAMPLARY and way better than pre covid pandemic so passengers prefer to fly it as opposed to competitive Airlines.
    The Airport checkins crew who yelled at the gates need a radio ph to converse amongst themselves & the staff who disallowed your friends boarding as a PRIORITY despite him telling them he was a business class passenger is again showing lack of training and unempathetic service agent.
    Had you not showed and told us all of these then the Airline would have never known and thus the service failures would have been repeated .
    FIJI Airways can use this video to TRAIN its crew for sure!
    Overall an exceptional 👌 👏 🙌 video bro.
    Good work!

    I took the same flight on business class and also it's flight from LAX to Nadi. It was really good value for money, but there are things lacking a bit. I had the same issue with the food taking a long time to arrive after placing the order, that being said they were super nice when I wanted to change my lunch order and were able to order something else when we were on the ground. Only thing I was really ticked off about was that the attendant refused to give a drink once we had landed and were stationary.

      It may take a few more months for the cabin to learn what customers expect. Plus writing things down would help and not having mixups

    What a shame. I was really happy to see you fly in business for once, and then you get a subpar experience like this. I just flew FRA-KUL in Qatar Business and was also painful remembered, that service is such a crucial part of any product. From my 9 flights in Qatar Business, luckily 7 of them in q-suite, only 1 was as amazing as my high expectation. And that's beside the fact that Q-suite stands as the best hard product in the industry! Anyway, hope you checked out the honest guide channel for you upcoming prague trip.

    That is the first time (if not, ever) that you have posted a constructive criticism review...and I totally agree that some airlines (like Fiji Airways) will need to do better to improve the passengers' experiences, especially Business Class.
    To be put up by a lack of some lounge facilities, followed up by boarding confusion, a broken entertainment system, dirty seats, and a cabin crew that seem to be slow and inattentive (over a meal that ended up being good), I would say that based on what I seen and what you've felt after the flight, that is NOT a very good experience. 😑
    However, the good thing about posting reviews reviews like these is that there are positive and negative aspects that airlines can take to improve the experience, as well as sharing opinions that makes viewers satisfied about what to do when flying. I understand how very frustrating your flight has been, but I hope that you won't be experiencing too many of this in the future (especially as demand for air travel taking off following easing of COVID restrictions).
    Even though I have not watched many of your reviews since COVID hit, honestly, I am very loyal subscribing to your channel and watching you fulfil your passion of flying and travelling. I hope you have safe and happy journeys this year and I can't wait to watch the next review. (Hopefully, it is better than this one!) 🙂

    Hi Jayden, when I looked at my recent travel options I went with Singapore & Singapore Airlines. (The service is outstanding.) I did consider Fiji after watching your review. On my trip I really wanted direct flights from Brisbane. Fiji was a one way only option out of Brisbane. The return had to be via Sydney. (Singapore Airlines & the VTL flights gave me the entire row to myself.) I also experienced the entire row on the non VTL flight home which was around 45 to 50% full. Singapore Airlines pricing & direct flights were an absolute winning choice for me. Right now, I am hoping that Japan will open up in the near future. I don't expect that to happen until after July. Your reviews are priceless. A huge help in decision making, as well as expectations. Thank you again Jayden for this channel.

      @@JaydenWong I paid $582 AUD return BNE-SIN. (1 was a VTL Flight. 1 was NOT a VTL Flight.). SQ getting cheaper is even more enticing, but I am really waiting for Japan now. P.S. Have you seen the lines at the Thailand International Airports. The numbers are way up for Tourism there, but with more than a few complications for ARRIVALS. (I know Brisbane & Sydney are also busy.)

    Jayden,
    thanks for your trip report.
    I think I may need to take your advice to another subscriber (maybe former now) ‘don’t watch it’ (so classy!)
    Firstly, I know it’s stressful to be in an economy airbridge for 5 mins (with economy people), especially when there's a priority to down another champagne in business.
    Yes, it’s unacceptable when someone doesn’t get their meal choice - how dare those other 32 pax before me, I paid good money for this flight (LoL). You should've piled more food on your plate when you were in the lounge just a short time earlier, (how do you feel when you arrive, bloated and disgusting? All that free food!
    Yes, it's unacceptable when my headset doesn’t work, and the second doesn’t either - those suppliers/contractors should know I will be onboard.
    Your gripes are petty.
    With a busy flight for the crew, 32 other very important pax with their own high maintenance requests, to take into account, things can take longer, and one could never expect the crew to drop all other requests to tend to the tablecloth for 19A.
    Perhaps when you went to the bathroom, to again be disappointed (no window) , you could’ve worked with the crew, and just requested another headset and a brief explanation.- they would’ve been more than happy to assist.
    Yes, sometimes other guests before us are higher maintenance and they take longer,- so to have a table cloth in front of you for some time must have been stressful. (You know when you get to the supermarket queue, thinking it’ll be quick, but the customer in front is high maintenance - yes, annoying. But we struggle and persevere)
    As you may know, that sector is full of tourists who want every cent of value from the dollars they paid - so they’re high maintenance. So, things take longer.
    What drove me to comment here, besides the silly complaints, was your comment to subscriber EP - ‘then don't watch it! I’. Maybe accept the comment and thank the viewer for watching and grow from their comment. Your response just makes your review and respect for your subscribers that much less valued. Maybe the 50K will start to diminish.
    Cheers
    Disappointed questioning subscriber

      Hey, first, I didn’t ‘complain’ how I didn’t get my choice of meal. I simply stated the fact that they ran out of it. Like I always do anyway like how half of my videos I say that! I say what I noticed in my videos, simple as that. I don’t wanna hide facts and then pass on false ideas to my viewers. And hey! That’s why I rarely work with airlines because when they contact me for a free flight, I make it clear to them that I want no extra attention and I’m going to report everything in my videos, good or bad. This is my hobby (not career) since I was 16, let me do it the way that I think is right. Re-headphones, the crew were so busy I reckoned it was easier to notify the airline directly after the flight (I’ve written an email and sent it them) then bothering them. And yes, one might say grow up, it’s just a headphone or BYO. But again, I think it was only right if I mentioned it in my video what went wrong and what went well. It goes both ways. If the seat is comfy I say it, if it gives me back pain I’m going to say it too. I’m no Sam Chui or other big channels who glorify the airlines in their flavours. I hope you understand.

    Seems like they assumed you were in Economy. Poor.
    The food service timing seems a little long but I guess it’s hard with such a huge business cabin. The crumbs and headset are not good. Service wise, it’s a shame they’re not more efficient. Possibly nervous or understaffed? Ticket price was reasonable for a 4 hour flight? Sometimes you get what you pay for? The seat looks great.
