      I think you never flew with Singapore or Qatar airline. If you did, then they would be first class and TUI would be second class, far form being the "best" airline. In fact most asian airlines would be better then TUI.

    When we flew back from Cancun last June with TUI (back to Manchester), one of the cabin crew offered us the opportunity to have a look in the cockpit after landing. Because we were keen to get home (and the fact we had jet lag like everyone else), we turned that opportunity away and I can only think of how regrettable that decision was. Decent plane, comfortable seats. Good meal service (except breakfast on the return; that sucked!).

      Hi Sam. Going to the cockpit was a fantastic experience, deficiently consider going next time you fly. I do see your point in wanting to get off the plane though. I completely agree that the food on the return flight was poor in comparison to the the outbound. Thanks.

    • @petermelia3384
      @petermelia3384  5 років тому

      I found out that the food on the Return flights is loaded in Cancun. (TUI flies it’s inbound meals on its outbound flights on all other routes) that’s why the meal on the return leg from CUN is so bad.

    I love the Dreamliner!! I used to only fly on the 737, 757, A320 etc and it was a very pleasant experience - it was good to have my own screen. The rows were a bit staggered though so I had to sit slightly behind my ten year old (across the aisle) and she was getting a bit upset because she can be a nervous flyer and had never been on a long haul aircraft. Because it was my first time on the 787, some of the noises were a bit alarming in my opinion, but to be fair I am used to smaller aircraft. The landing back at Manchester was so smooth though that I thought we were still hundreds of feet in the air!! I was sat in the middle of the plane on the aisle seat so couldn’t really see out of the window very well, but on the map we were going over Manchester. I was a bit like, “what??” But then I realise we landed. All together a great experience, I think this was definitely one of my favourite flights. The only thing I’ll say though is that I do prefer the descent on the 737 because on the Dreamliner it sort of felt like we were doing a nose dive at some points 😂. Also the flaps on the wings were a bit weird as they put them down when we had pretty much only just started descending. But I don’t know, maybe it’s just me being paranoid?? I was sat just in front of the toilet, so that kept making loud noises. Anyway (I’ll stop talking now lol), it was a really pleasant flight.

    • @petermelia3384
      @petermelia3384  4 роки тому +2

      Hi Lilly. Thanks for taking time to write such a detailed comment. We also found the staggered seating config to be a bit annoying. Especially considering on the outbound flight my dad was basically sat on his own amongst a wedding party. My dad personally hated this flight, he wasn’t pleased about members of the wedding party leaning on his seat etc. Maybe next time the four of us will split into two on one side of the plane. In terms of the noises of the plane, I already knew what to expect as I’d watched tones of videos prior 😂.

    • @hashmaldawn3878
      @hashmaldawn3878 4 роки тому +1

      That wouldn't have been the flaps coming down at such an early stage in the descent. Flaps can't be used above 20,000 feet at all, and rarely much above 5,000 feet.
      Also, the descent on the 787 is usually even more shallow than the 737 as it is much more aerodynamically smooth. Maybe there was a specific reason on your flight but it is rare.
      If you've any other questions about the 787 then please ask me, I've been flying them about 18 months now

    • @no-bn7xv
      @no-bn7xv 4 роки тому
