Great flight review! Enjoyed it a lot. Honestly, for long haul, the Jetstar 787 doesn't seem too bad at all. I'm flying them to Japan in May and am quite excited to see that they're gonna be like ahahaha I hope to see more flight reviews from you in the future!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I was definitely super with how good Jetstar long haul is, hopefully you also have a great experience when you go to Japan in May. Thank you for your support! 😃
Nicely done mate keep up the great work. It really look interesting Honolulu Airport, the whole open air style looks quite unique! I've only been to the mainland States so always been intrigued to see what Hawaii is like so thanks for showcasing it! Jetstar looks like a pretty viable way to go if wanting to forgo a few frills to save some cash. I heard recently that Qantas are upgrading from 330's to 787-9 on the same route which probably will offer more options for cashed up premium flyers going to Hawaii!
Yeah, I saw that Qantas were switching aircraft as well. I think they thought well about this choice because the 787-9 is newer so people can fly to Hawaii with a little bit more class. Thank you so much for your comment!
1:57, That's the same aircraft type that I flew for the 1st time last May, the same flight number, aircraft type, registration and final destination, wow and the flight is good and okay, 10 hours.
Yes. The seats are identical to my flight last May. Thanks, but what I don't like is if I want to watch movie, I have to pay and it's so annoying. I would not fly Jetstar again on a longer flight, unless it's cheap.
Fantastic flight review. For your age, you do wonderful video works,and your narration is very informative. You sound like Cabin Crew at times. Awesome.
Hi! I believe I'm flying this aircraft soon - I got confused as to whether or not the seats reclined. I called to ask if being seated in front of a wall would obstruct reclining, and was told none of them recline. Was this true? Nice video!
Hey, thanks for your comment! To answer your question, yes. I was seated in 50A and my seat could recline and more than you would expect for a budget airline. I’m not sure about the Emergency Exit row or the seat in front of a wall but most of the seats I saw were reclined by the person sitting in them. Again, thanks for your comment!
@@justkillen07 They weighed my carry on at the Jetstar check in just once to see if it needed to be put in the baggage hold or if I could carry it on. I’m pretty sure the weight limit for Economy passengers carry on items was about 7kg. Thanks for watching!
Between the Qantas A330 and Jetstar B787 on the same Sydney to Honolulu return flight ,there is only 1 inch (2.5 cm) difference in seat pitch , the widths are the same
Hey Graham, thanks for watching! I totally wasn’t aware that the difference between Qantas and Jetstar was so similar, I would have thought Qantas’ seats to be much wider than Jetstar’s. Now that I know this it makes me feel like I didn’t miss out as much if my family and I went with Qantas instead. Thanks again for watching, it’s much appreciated!
@@Drod8899 Thank you! About the charger I thought it was USBC but I could have been wrong, if I am I apologise but I guess I should have looked into it. Thanks again for watching!
I’m not to sure, I didn’t get an offer from Jetstar to upgrade but if I asked I probably could have because there were a few front row and emergency exit seats available. Thanks for your comment!
Nice vlog! Have you been to any of the major US cities like Chicago, New York, etc.? Honolulu is definitely nice, but there is a lot more to see! :D (I live in Virginia, USA.)
Hey Qantas 1. Do you remember me? 😂. i see you have ads before this video. If i’m right, i’ll keep watching the ads, which will give you money. right? 😅I hope you get some money from this good quality video. ❤❤
25:41, On my Jetstar flight to Sydney last May, after landing, we taxi to the gate in no time and it's good, 10 minutes, it's not bad, a little too long, but I am okay.
It’s funny you mention that because Christchurch is one of the top places I want to visit. I would love to visit along with Auckland, Wellington and Queenstown so hopefully I can soon. I may possibly be doing a New Zealand road trip in the coming years so hopefully I can make this a reality. Thanks for watching!
I actually can’t remember if WiFi was available for purchase, I didn’t buy it but it may have been available and I didn’t notice. Sorry about this because I want to be able to answer questions but in this case I’m just not sure. Thanks for watching though! 😃
@@Levi.Collier I take this flight about every 6 months. No WiFi unfortunately. I live in Hawaii but have family in Queensland. It's a totally fine experience on that 787. What I don't like is the connecting flight from Sydney to Gold Coast. Those planes are cramped and ugly inside.
Oh, nice. I would love to live in Hawaii, it seemed so calm and had a really nice chill vibe to it. What airline do you fly from Sydney to the Gold Coast?
@@alanr.spector8197 Yeah, I have flown Jetstar domestic quite a bit and it isn’t great. Qantas and Virgin are definitely my go to when flying domestic in Australia but they can get quite expensive.
Yeah, we tried that but the bus never showed up. It’s meant to come every 30 minutes but we waited for about an hour and it never came. So we just took the train instead. Thanks for watching! 😃
Hi Levi, been to Honolulu about 4 times over the last 30 years. Flown Qantas or Hawaiian. Really enjoyed the service on Hawaiian last time. Dont like the Dreamliner as i went to Vancouver in a Qantas Dreamliner about 15 months ago. Worst trip ever on Qantas, seats very uncomfortable Torture for 14 and half hours. Premium Economy is the way to go if you want to be comfortable.
Hey Brian, thanks for your comment! It’s awesome you’ve been to Hawaii four times, I personally would love to go back. I was quite surprised to hear you didn’t enjoy your Qantas 787 experience, I have always been told great things about them. If I were to go back to Hawaii or fly another longer route I do agree with what you said, Premium Economy is definitely the way to go even if it costs a little extra. I’m still yet to try Premium Economy, Qantas International and Hawaiian Airlines but hopefully I can in the near future. Thanks for watching Brian!
How much did you pay to fly Jetstar?I pay less than $400 for a 1 way flight from Honolulu to Sydney return and it's really cheap, but I would not fly 10 hour low cost airline to pay to watch movie and it's so annoying.
So to me it seems fine. Hundreds of dollars less than Quantis , I’m cool with paying or bringing my own food. Rude staff as long as you know how to handle n emergency, we cool. I’m not there to hang out with flight crew. Like Quantis, they don’t want to hang with me.
Yeah, Jetstar is definitely a great option for travel compared to Qantas. They are much cheaper and in my experience the staff were really nice but I have had they can be quite rude. Thanks for watching!
@@Levi.Collier i have never liked Jetstar always late rude cabin crew and international business class doesn’t even feel like it i am always Qantas on domestic flights and some international flights but mostly Emirates on international flights
@@louiseleonard1992Jetstar isn’t that bad. Like it gets you where you need to go, it’s got decent aircraft, and when i flew with them, the crew were rly nice and a soft landing.
Fantastic Review Mate! Very detailed and great to see a flight review with Jetstar operating this flight keep up the great work! 👊🏻
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. 😄

Wonderful video of Jetstar 787 take off out of Honolulu
Thanks, totally agree. Was incredible to witness in person!
1:57, That's the same aircraft type that I flew for the 1st time last May, the same flight number, aircraft type, registration and final destination, wow and the flight is good and okay, 10 hours.
Really, what are the chances! I hope you had an enjoyable flight experience as well. 😃
Yes. The seats are identical to my flight last May. Thanks, but what I don't like is if I want to watch movie, I have to pay and it's so annoying. I would not fly Jetstar again on a longer flight, unless it's cheap.

Thanks for your video! Did you weigh your carry on bags?
Yeah, we had to weigh all of our suitcases and our carry-on items/bags. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for a wonderful video.. great information!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

are you sure the charger at seat was C and not type A USB? Great trip report
@@Drod8899 Thank you! About the charger I thought it was USBC but I could have been wrong, if I am I apologise but I guess I should have looked into it. Thanks again for watching!
Nice vlog mate, is it possible to pay for an upgrade to emergency exit or front row seat?
I’m not to sure, I didn’t get an offer from Jetstar to upgrade but if I asked I probably could have because there were a few front row and emergency exit seats available. Thanks for your comment!
Nice vlog! Have you been to any of the major US cities like Chicago, New York, etc.? Honolulu is definitely nice, but there is a lot more to see! :D (I live in Virginia, USA.)
Not yet, but I really want to visit the major US cities!
Great vlog looks pretty decent
Thank you so much!
@@Levi.Collier I actually wouldnt mind trying a business class flight with Jetstar once they have been refurbed next year
Yeah, I also have been really wanting to fly Jetstar Business Class when it is refurbished
Hey Qantas 1. Do you remember me? 😂. i see you have ads before this video. If i’m right, i’ll keep watching the ads, which will give you money. right? 😅I hope you get some money from this good quality video. ❤❤
Yeah, of course I remember you! I wish I got money from UA-cam but I don’t yet. Thank you so much for the support! 😀

You should come to New Zealand Christchurch
It’s funny you mention that because Christchurch is one of the top places I want to visit. I would love to visit along with Auckland, Wellington and Queenstown so hopefully I can soon. I may possibly be doing a New Zealand road trip in the coming years so hopefully I can make this a reality. Thanks for watching!

@@Levi.Collier Sydney to Gold Coast was also Jetstar. Not too thrilled with Jetstar for domestic.
@@alanr.spector8197 Yeah, I have flown Jetstar domestic quite a bit and it isn’t great. Qantas and Virgin are definitely my go to when flying domestic in Australia but they can get quite expensive.
That departure 😍
I know, it was incredible!
Great review, lots of information. I must admit I don't like it when the crew lock the windows!
Hey, thanks for watching! Yeah, totally agree. I wish they couldn’t lock the windows because it ruins the beautiful views outside.
Did you know you can go to the Qantas transfer desk to and they put you on bus to Sydney Domestic ?
Yeah, we tried that but the bus never showed up. It’s meant to come every 30 minutes but we waited for about an hour and it never came. So we just took the train instead. Thanks for watching! 😃
787 budget airline + inflight entertainment?
Yeah, it’s definitely uncommon but really cool.

How was the beautiful state of Hawaii?🇺🇸🇺🇸
Amazing, I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to hopefully go back!
@@Levi.Collier are there any beaches in Australia that are like Hawaii?🔥
Yeah, heaps. Places in Queensland have beaches just like Hawaii especially in Townsville or Cairns.

Why fly the worst airline ever i call them crapstar for a reason i would definitely fly Qantas and go business class next time
Yeah, Qantas is much better.

I mean Jetstar is really good but I wouldn’t call them crapstar and at the same time we know qantas is better but like sometimes it’s expensive
Why call crapstar more like your crapstar
