What a nice airline and airport! Maybe in the near future, Azerbaijan Airlines might become an airline we all know. Can you take Singapore Airlines to Melbourne or one of Japan's regional carriers?
Jeff David, i travelled a lot as well. We just go! lol. I'm always scared! And i'm going to fly in this company. I tell you the truth... i prefer not to fly but i'm going from Saint Petesburg to Baku in a smaller plane
Wow, what a terminal building.....stunning! And you caught an truly amazing sunrise. The colors were breathtaking! I enjoyed the trip report very much. And I'm impressed by the space in Economy. A few of the western airlines should take a good look at that, and learn. Thank you Felix.

I think Azerbaijan Airlines is trying to be a transfer hub like Istanbul (Turkish Airlines) and Dubai (Emirates) and I think so far it is going well. Also I didn't know that Baku airport was that modern... Impressive :) 👍🏼 (Love from Turkey🇹🇷❤️🇦🇿)
With a small long-haul fleet and few, infrequently served destinations, AZAL can't expect to compete with Turkish, Emirates, Etihad or Qatar as a transfer airline. AZAL doesn't even fly to India, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, South Korea, Hong Kong, the prime Asian markets. Oman Air, which is much larger than AZAL, is trying that in Muscat, but so far with only limited success. Ethiopian Airlines has been somewhat more successful, but it has to offer crash fares to compete with the Middle Eastern carriers.
Yup, I think their aim is just to have a nice airport and airline, even flying empty, it is running on petro-dollars anyway (or gas-dollars to be excact!)
That airport needs a longer video dedicated to it. I had no idea you could find such brilliant infrastructure in Azerbaijan. By the way, awesome report! Cheers!
That airport got 5 starts from somecompany (i dont know which company) I am from Azerbaijan and live in İstanbul, turkey. Everytime I fly to Istanbul. I see that sign "5 Stars". That is absolutely good airport not a big airport because Azerbaijan local population is 10M but modern.
Another airline I never knew existed...cool! Very impressive, from the legroom, to the food, and the service. That airport, though...WOW! On a par with Dubai, from the little I saw. It makes me want to learn more about Azerbaijan. Great report, Felix!
AZAL pilots land sooo good! that is the one thing I noticed while flying with them and I noticed in your video as well. Most planes when they land they almost crash into the ground, with a loud thud and the whole plane jumps. Landing is alwayss delicate with AZAL. very good pilots, I think they are really good for people afraid of flying.
Thanks Felix; terrific report. Nice coverage of the 787 cabin mood lighting. Kit Kat and Chocolate muffin for breakfast!!! Baku AIRPORT LOOKS SUPERBLY FURURISTIC. mE THINKS I will have to pay a visit.
i don't think it is a low cost airline coz it looks better than cathay Pacific and it's soooo awesome so much legroom never seen that and they provide everything you need like amenity kit is very rare in top flights now a days best tripreport ever seen😄 very satisfied with AZAL airlines exelllllent!!! job AZAL keep it up 😇😇👍👌👏
Amazing trip report! I love Azerbaijan livery, it's just so beautiful. Despite being an economy passenger, the legroom is so amazingly huge and the food looks super delicious, I wish I could travel on Azerbaijan Airlines one day.
Always love your trip reports and the footages are fabulous. Specially shout out when you flip through the airlines magazines and pause for a while at its route map's page, love it (I'm obsessed with inflight magazines actually)!
Dennab I'm from the US, most people here have never heard of this airline. They are also relatively small compared to other airlines in the US and abroad
Because Azerbaijan is a magical country! It is better not to be well-known in this '' modern world''. Azerbaijan is a secret ❤️ Very pure and beautiful country.
If you have any more footage of the Baku airport, please upload it. If not, the next time you're there you definitely need to do a video of just that airport. Stunning!
Thank you, a very beautiful and well-made video. It gave me a very good idea of what to expect. It looks like a great airline and a very interesting country!
Excellent, a very refreshing trip report on an airline that many people don't fly. Yes T4 at LHR is terrible. I really enjoy the 788, its a great aircraft. The food looked great for economy, well presented and looked like something I would want to eat. Baku airport is amazing, but just like you, its creepy how there is really no one there. Did you stay long or just fly off somewhere else ? Great report again.
i had waited for it since you upload a photo about it on Instagram! They have such a mayestic livery :D p/s: im not from aserbaijan and hope for Vietnam airlines
Been waiting for this report since you mentioned on your website. Now, yaaaay!! PS: The dinner looked good apart from those big pieces potatoes and carrots.
Thanks Felix for this video! Well I have to say what a pleasant surprise. I've always wanted to take a trip to Azerbaijan and now I think seeing this makes me more likely to go. Surprised how quick the flight time is, I guess I was expecting 6 hours.
Scary place to go with all that repression and personality cult for the late dictator. He even changed the calendar to create month names after himself (and one for his mother) and reserved half of the country's school curriculum hours to study the book of his thoughts (both things fortunately later reversed by the new dictator - who, however, was not keen on being behind and erected a new gold statue of himself to match his predecessor's)...
IFE wasnt broken it is just a bit difficult to find out how it works lol i live in uk but i am from Azerbaijan and in last 5 years flew about 6 times with Azal and everytime it takes me a bit of time to find out how to use it lol what about food always been amazing,big portion, tasty,and then they give u more after an hour or two lol never seen anything like that on any other airlines.
Brilliant trip report. It's amazing that they served 2 meals for this flight. At least the flight was not very long and it's a red-eye flight, so broken IFE wouldn't be a very big probem
Heathrow terminals from best to worst 1.Terminal 5 2.Terminal 2 3.Terminal 3 4.Terminal 4 i am really looking forward to the demolition of terminal 3 in 2019 but I'm not sure when and if terminal 4 is being upgraded
Oh my. They sure have a futuristic airport. Very unusual. First time to see an airport in a very little known country. Baku airport can rival to that of Singapore Changi , Dubai, Doha Hamad etc. I wonder why they are not listed or have any representation in the Skytrax survey. Hmm..

Heathrow Terminal 4 is cramped unfortunately because of the way it was built. It was designed and built in the 1980's for short-haul business flights.

Never know Azerbaijan had an airline.... very interesting. Hope to see more of these "unknown" airlines in future trip reports
BWIAviation_Sports its pretty popular tho -_-
Dennab I'm from the US, most people here have never heard of this airline. They are also relatively small compared to other airlines in the US and abroad
BWIAviation_Sports americans don't even know that Azerbaijan exists
Kasmin1 Games & More some may not, but I️ bet most foreigners can’t even name or locate all 50 states of the US.
Because Azerbaijan is a magical country! It is better not to be well-known in this '' modern world''. Azerbaijan is a secret ❤️ Very pure and beautiful country.
If Baku becomes a successful transfer hub I'll definitely will go there
Compared to New Istanbul Airport, the Baku airport is a real gem and not as big like NIA.
You promised an exciting one and this is exciting!
This video is very beautiful!Have a nice flight simply Aviation! BAKIDAN SALAMLAR!!!🇦🇿and 🇦🇹
This airline has got to be one of the best
Yes they are very good! :D

Heydar ALİYEV airport is one of the most beautiful airport in the world which is 5 star. everyone is excited when arrives to baku and see our airport.
You guys should do a trip report to Ashgabat, with Turkmenistan airways
Jack Dent he had booked a flight for it
Scary place to go with all that repression and personality cult for the late dictator. He even changed the calendar to create month names after himself (and one for his mother) and reserved half of the country's school curriculum hours to study the book of his thoughts (both things fortunately later reversed by the new dictator - who, however, was not keen on being behind and erected a new gold statue of himself to match his predecessor's)...
Jack Dent Turkmenistan Airlines is totally rubbish and the service is really bad, they don't even have a safety video.
ITZ YASIN nah, afterall, they have a great livery
It would be great if it would become a smaller hub, more flights for us here in Baku.
IFE wasnt broken it is just a bit difficult to find out how it works lol i live in uk but i am from Azerbaijan and in last 5 years flew about 6 times with Azal and everytime it takes me a bit of time to find out how to use it lol what about food always been amazing,big portion, tasty,and then they give u more after an hour or two lol never seen anything like that on any other airlines.
The most amazing part of this trip report was at the very end... The thrust reversers part.
I WAS WAITING FOR AZAL A LONG TIME FINALLY YAY

will fly this beauty in july😍 looking forward

That airport looks better than dubai and Abu Dhabi. I said the same thing you said when you walked in there.
Nice! :D
0:48 = ROYAL AIR MAROC !!! ❤❤❤❤
I would love a Tripreport to Casablanca ! I highly recommand you this airline !
Hi Nice Video Really Enjoyed ....Cant Wait Till Friday
Thanks.
Oh my. They sure have a futuristic airport. Very unusual. First time to see an airport in a very little known country. Baku airport can rival to that of Singapore Changi , Dubai, Doha Hamad etc. I wonder why they are not listed or have any representation in the Skytrax survey. Hmm..
I don't know why...
Simply Aviation Its okay.
Zahid Shafi they were in skytrax list .. aproximately in row 72
Couldn't see it well here, but I love their livery

Artavil Production it’s only terminals 3 and 4 that are absolute shitholes, of you go to terminals 2 or 5, they are really nicely done
By the way Tabriz is in Iran not Azerbaijan
Huge meal 👌nice Airlines
Meal looked very appealing!
It was very tasty. ;)

Nice! :D

Heathrow Terminal 4 is cramped unfortunately because of the way it was built. It was designed and built in the 1980's for short-haul business flights. The idea was that the terminal was very long and narrow, so that you could be dropped off outside, check in, go through security, and board the aircraft all in the space of 30 minutes. The departure gates were made for smaller aircraft (like the 737 or BAe 146) and the whole thing was built on one storey. But as soon as it opened in 1986 British Airways demanded sole access to it (and more-or-less got it, due to silent payments being made to Thatcher's government). They immediately started operating short AND long-haul flights from it, basing 747s and even Concorde from there. T4 was never built to handle that sort of capacity. It was made for 100-pax aircraft.
Now BA have T5 (mostly) and other airlines fill T4. They've widened the airside section a little, but it's still cramped. It's ridiculous really.
Love the food in this airline
Great review!
The middle cabin is definitely Premium Economy though
I love Baku Airport more in the evening. Because the evening is like a crystal palace with lights on.
I Think that Had Really Enjoyed The Flight
Hey there, why did you travel to Azerbaijan and how much did the flight cost? Quite a modern airport that was!!!
Baku is a really modern one! Very nice one. We do not publish anything regarding the fares we payed, Bakus wasn't my final destination.
Review the airport. It looks so cool!
RIP to everyone who lost their lives on Flight 8243 in Aktau, Kazakhstan🙏
💔🇦🇿
great Video, hope you enjoyed your flight!
I enjoyed it! :D
