  • After not having seen my family in almost a year, in September of 2020, in the midst of the pandemic, I flew to Europe to finally do so. I had flown on WestJet's Dreamliner a year earlier on a domestic flight, and because I really liked the product so much, I had chosen to book it to cross the Atlantic Ocean. At check in, I got the option to upgrade from economy class to Premium for only $400 Canadian Dollars, and I ended up being the only person in the Premium cabin!

    Thanks! I just upgraded to premium on my flight home to AMS in a bit, can't wait to check out the cabin

    Fantastic trip report! The cabin looked very new and clean. I'd love to try their product on the Dreamliner one day

    What an amazing experience that must be, Robin! I remember my flight with Swiss in September, I had the entire forward economy cabin to myself. There's nothing like the feeling of solitude on a widebody over the ocean! Especially on WJ's 789 in Premium.
    Keep up the good work!

      Thanks Pierre, it's a special feeling, but it's sad too. The cabin should be full.

    You are lucky to be the ONLY ONE in the Business class cabin, that the fact COVID-19 is still spreading. Boeing 787 is one of the best and high quality selling airplanes out there man.

    Great video, Robin! Westjet looks really good. Very smart interior and such a new plane too. Airlines do try and serve ‘local’ dishes according the the route...maybe that croissant was a tribute to flying to Paris? Anyway, you are making me miss longhaul travel.....😬😉

    Excellent content as always, great edditing ... I wish you to gain more views and subs in the future, you really desserve it ! Btw I was glad to hear in another of your videos some months ago that you started learning French... Well I wish you really good luck and looking forward to maybe hear you speaking French in the future ! I know it's a difficult language to learn although as a native French I cannot really measure that... anyway greetings from Paris and keep the good work !

    One of your best ever reviews Robin. I mean with an empty cabin to yourself talk about an opportunity! I think Premium Economy get passed over as an option too much by us reviewers so thanks for sharing this one! Legrest in every seat is a big win for us tall flyers! Did you not sleep?!

    • @Vuelogs
      @Vuelogs  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks Billy! Really appreciate it! I had never flown premium economy on a long haul flight either, but now I have, I’m more inclined to do so in the future. You get a lot for a lot less than business class. I did close my eyes a bit, but I only ever sleep well on planes on full flat seats after a couple of drinks haha

    Anything about Westjet is an instant turn off and Onex Corportation. Westjet is owned by a currupt Ontario Corp, Good riddance eastern Westjet. Move to Toronto and ket Alberta start it's alone new airline. Grrr
