1:00 Those tunes are so funny! :-) Hearing them, I half expect Hello-Kitty to slide down some rainbow and run around the platform, yelling Japanese greetings in a high pitched voice.. hahaha...
I flew on first US Carrier flight (Pan Am) out of Narita, back in late 70's. Love the English signs on subway, now. That was not the case back in the day!
When I visit Japan for the first time - which should hopefully be soon, I’m putting cash aside when I can! - I’m definitely exploring the country rather than only sticking around the city flown into, and air travel combined with Japan’s renowned trains makes that quite appealing :) I think it’s very cool that widebodies are used on domestic routes over there; it’s a world away from over here in the UK, where the A320 family is used pretty much everywhere on BA’s domestic routes!
While I agree that Haneda is much closer to the city and thus more convenient, Narita really isn't that bad either in comparison. The Keisei Skyliner highspeed train goes right into Ueno station was amazing when I visited in October 2012. Wasn't as expensive as many people were making it out to be. Especially when compared with how expensive the rest of Japan is. I guess what it really comes down to is whether you're trying to get to East or West Tokyo.
When my Army unit flew to Camp Higashi-Chitose in 2005 for a US-Japanese training exercise, we flew ANA to Sapporo/Chitose and took Air Do back to Haneda on the return flight. The dash from Narita to Haneda by bus on both occasions was epic... :)
03:43 you'll be surprised that there used to be a 747-400D used in domestic flight. Boeing 747-400D was made with Japan airlines. But still, 777-200 or -300 and 787-9 is used in domestic flights nowadays. Also, Airbus A350-900 will be flying for domestic fights in Japan at September.
For me while watching your video: Lounge - 0 Boarding - 3/3 Cabin Overall - 3/3 Amenity Kit - 0 Food - 3/3 IFE - 0 Toilets - 0 Crew - 3/3 Total - 12/21 Overall - 1.7/5 A very lively airplane. From the livery to the safety video. So unique. Great video. Please do a Philippine carrier review if can. 🙂
Btw it's not unnecessary melodies, that's a different tune in every station in Tokyo, so you could tell at a glance of you're not paying attention to the sign or asleep on couch
Nice trip report! It's quite cool to see B767 doesn't have winglets and the big TV nowadays. I always love watching domestic airline like Air Do. It's cool to know that plane was bought from ANA and that plane was really old (23 years) but still looks new. Thanks for sharing this amazing video.
Great video! Japan is the country that I want to visit the most. I love video games in addition to aviation! And they still have arcades, and some great retro game stores.
David - the melodies are specifically for incoming announcements - inbound and outbound trains, timing, etc. You will get used to it ... The longer you live in Tokyo. 😊
+Robert Scheck, those people with masks probably have colds. That's a very common sight in Japan. That's out of pure respect and consideration for their fellow citizens - they don't want to pass their cold viruses on to others. I really, really admire and envy how civilized the Japanese are!
Everyone know that there’s 1 plane in Naha that’s operated by Air do from Tokyo it is normally a nine operated flight because it flys to Hokkaido from Honshu
Yayyyyy!!! An Air Do trip report, I have been waiting for someone to do this! I also like Narita because I would like to sight see Chiba Prefecture while taking NEX. It is simply beautiful!
@Simply Aviation it seems like the unnecesary melody function as a sign that u can aboard the train or so😅😀😀 The plane looks so wide inside...the safety instruction is so cute! The cup is so cute 😍😍
wow it amazing that air do still flying :) + simply aviation you should buy airlines magazine ( in japan ) if you like flying it a great magazine but only in japanese lol
This is an ex ANA 767. The wall pattern on the bulkhead/galley areas gives it away with the white squared pattern. Perhaps not surprising though since Air Do is part owned by ANA.
There was extensive research into the arrival tunes at Japan's rail stations which unfortunately I can't quite recall as to the precise conclusions but needless to say for some reason they were found to be beneficial.
Not the emptiest flight, was once on a FlyDubai flight from Dubai-Najaf and there was 7 people in the all Economy cabin, me and my family and this couple. Was a nice flight, the flight attendants let us choose our own rows and we just lifted the armrests and slept. Was quite fun xD!
Tokyo Haneda has the highest landing fee of any airport in the world. Closely followed by Tokyo Narita and KIX. I think the fee is around $5000-$6000 per flight.
Does anyone know if ANA runs Air Do or also a 767 on the Wakkanai to Haneda flight? Nice trip report, I also recommend taking Star Flyer(especially to Kitakyushu or Fukuoka), it's like a boutique airline.
Yeah, but my hotel was in Shinjuku, not Ueno. And from Shinjuku it's at least 90min by NEX to Narita and approx. 45 to Haneda by Yamanote and the Monorail...^^
Hi David or Felix or whoever is reading this from Simply Aviation (or simplification from google lol), can you consider flying with Garuda Indonesia? From Europe, they operate flights from Amsterdam and London. They have the nicest staff ever! I'm not lying!. Anyways, thank you for reading this comment. Hope you have a great day/night or whenever your reading this.
We have no flights booked with this airline yet...maybe soon though! :D A list of airlines we are going to travel with and the upcoming destinations can be found here: www.simply-aviation.com/airlines/
Those "unnecessary melodies" are played in the station to annouce the departure of the train... They're deployed as a nicer and less annoying/stressful alternative to the bells 😀 especially in the hassle of commuting

Yes! :D
@@simply_aviation I am soo happy about your video I really like it can you keep making this video?

Another great report, David! I love Japan's politeness and cleanliness. And they seem to be extremely efficient as well. Keep the reports coming.

@@leonko864 lmaoooo
Good for you buddy I wanted to go there too
Japan might be not so big, but is has enormous lenght. A flight between Sapporo and Fukuoka will take about 2,5 hours, to Okinawa even 3,5.
I know. ;)
Toras Do you mean height? North to south is height, and east to west is length.
Toras .
And it looks literally like a j
Its pretty much the size of the (3/4 i think) East Coast in USA
13:26 they even have Air Do sun shades with the bear on it for the cockpit.
HAHA, OMG I didn't even realize that! That's so cool! :D Very consistent marketing^^

My jaw dropped when I saw yellow markings on Sapporo’s runway

Yes, better than plastic ones. ;)
One of my favourite channels on UA-cam. Love you Tintin :P (sorry)
Thank you very much! :D Very glad to hear that!
hello im a japanese student

thx
Cool.
Japan as always:clean,shine and civilised!
I've been to Tokyo, I want to go to Sapporo so badly tho. Hokkaido seems so much cooler
JaweaiAqii. Mama zarar
Great video! Japan is the country that I want to visit the most. I love video games in addition to aviation! And they still have arcades, and some great retro game stores.
I only recommend to visit Japan! :D
I love riding airplanes especially plane spotting
Ive never heard about this airline before but thats one unique livery! Great trip report!
Now you heard of it. ;)
David - the melodies are specifically for incoming announcements - inbound and outbound trains, timing, etc. You will get used to it ... The longer you live in Tokyo. 😊
I've never ever in my life heard of this airline, Air Do! Thank you for the trip report :) I love these double reports per week
Also why do some people have masks on?
+Robert Scheck, those people with masks probably have colds. That's a very common sight in Japan. That's out of pure respect and consideration for their fellow citizens - they don't want to pass their cold viruses on to others. I really, really admire and envy how civilized the Japanese are!
Everyone know that there’s 1 plane in Naha that’s operated by Air do from Tokyo it is normally a nine operated flight because it flys to Hokkaido from Honshu
From the video it looked SUPER clean on subway.
Yayyyyy!!! An Air Do trip report, I have been waiting for someone to do this! I also like Narita because I would like to sight see Chiba Prefecture while taking NEX. It is simply beautiful!
Your welcome! :D Thank you so much for watching and commenting! :D
Hope you enjoyed the video! :D
The Runway at New Chitose Airport has yellow markings? 11:50
looks epic!
Mohammed AlShariff Must snow there alot, I believe it helps pilots see the runway when covered in snow
PhantomUniform0 Interesting...
PhantomUniform0 wouldn't the snow be cleared ,like, all the time?
The runway is yellow marked in the Tōhoku and Hokkaidō regions
On ANA domestic 767-300 flights the business class configuration is 2-1-2 which is different. This was a good video.
Never seen a 2-1-2 configuration in business class. :D
You should consider doing plane spotting one time, it would be awesome, but I love your channel anyways
MLG Gaming MLG yeah right?
Did you know that we also have some plane spotting videos on our channel?
5:34 I like the safety video they played.
Me expecting to see the aviation around the world, usually around Europe and America.
Now, that's my home town!!
man i miss those little jingles at railway stations in japan.
Really?
thx for sharing, never heard of this airlines before until watching your video
Welcome to Japan!!

Japan is Japan. Clean & great management.
@Simply Aviation it seems like the unnecesary melody function as a sign that u can aboard the train or so😅😀😀
The plane looks so wide inside...the safety instruction is so cute!
The cup is so cute 😍😍
Japan in general is cute! :D
Very nice video! Liked the bear of Air DO

OHHHHH what an awesome video! Your videos never keep me bored! Continue with the excellent work! :)
Thank you very much! :D Very glad to hear that!
i always watching your videos :D i really enjoy (y)
Thank you! :D
May I ask what you do for a living? Or do you just love flying to random places and making videos of the trip
This is an ex ANA 767. The wall pattern on the bulkhead/galley areas gives it away with the white squared pattern. Perhaps not surprising though since Air Do is part owned by ANA.
Thank you very much for the information! :D
Thanks for the interesting review!
This airline is a rare guest in the reviews!
Haneda Airport liked it!
Yes, haven't seen a other one yet. ;)
Its such a cute airline
Air Do is a regional air based in Hokkaido,named after Hokkai-“Do”
It's also 50 minutes when you fly from Manila to Iloilo, but it's 55 minutes when you fly from Iloilo to Manila.
I really want to visit Japan one time! Such a cool country :D
I only can recommend it!
Very nicely done.
Surprising that signs are also in English. Didn't expect that.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! :D

Not the emptiest flight, was once on a FlyDubai flight from Dubai-Najaf and there was 7 people in the all Economy cabin, me and my family and this couple. Was a nice flight, the flight attendants let us choose our own rows and we just lifted the armrests and slept. Was quite fun xD!
I watched this video for the third time and I just realised that at 10:22 it's kind of cloudy instead of sunny
Excellent as always, A unique airline !
Thank you was also not easy to get a ticket for this flight for a person who don't speaks Japanese.
Flight time??? Nice video David! We thought u were gone Felix done a lot reports!!
oh yeah! Yamamoto-sen!!!! And air do? awesome man!!!
Omgggg Sapporo city is the Best for me

Awesome video again! =) I love Japan! I pretty like Air Do's special livery!
Great video! Keep on going! =))
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! :D

You're welcome! :D
I love the Japanese manga-style! It's so unique and it fits on everything! :)
Simply tell me how do you fly frequently because I want to do it as well
Check out this link for more information regarding your question! :D www.simply-aviation.com/faq/
WOAH! VERY NICE AIRPORT!!

11:15 Interesting I thought it usually for landings?
Not sure if this has already been said but I think you forgot something in your endcard.
Thanks! :) Added them!
Very cool video! Love your channel! (Ps: You made a mistake at 0:47 instead of writing Haneda airport you wrote Handea airport)
Sorry for the typo. ;)
5:52 :lol the safety video Is so weird tho
Amazing video David. Air Do is based in Sapporo. Drink looks delicious and good wing-view. One day I will visit Sapporo.
Thank you! You have tho visit Sapporo(!) amazing city. ;)
Simply Aviation your welcome. My dream place to visit Sapporo. I learned from TV and wiki about Sapporo :)
I always like simply aviation
Thank you for showing this flight vlogs! I subscribed
From the philippines
Thank you very much! :D Very glad to hear that!
Great video this is a kid love your Channel
Tokyo Haneda has the highest landing fee of any airport in the world. Closely followed by Tokyo Narita and KIX. I think the fee is around $5000-$6000 per flight.
I didn't know that.
Another great trip report, loved it😋
Thank you! :D
Does anyone know if ANA runs Air Do or also a 767 on the Wakkanai to Haneda flight?
Nice trip report, I also recommend taking Star Flyer(especially to Kitakyushu or Fukuoka), it's like a boutique airline.
did you tap your phone when entering the monorail? I feel confused.🤔🤔
tokyo ueno to narita is with narita express only 58 min and the normal subway 96 min
Yeah, but my hotel was in Shinjuku, not Ueno. And from Shinjuku it's at least 90min by NEX to Narita and approx. 45 to Haneda by Yamanote and the Monorail...^^
enjoying woth ur flight nice vid :D
Thank you! :D
try to fly with garuda indonesia mate :)
yeah new Tripreport nice video
Like every wednesday and friday. ;)
Is 2-3-2 typical for a 767? I don't know why but I always though they were 3-3.
what audio is that in 08:50
Air Do looks like a decent airline for flying.Great trip report.
The safety video was so funny :))
looks like 787! Wow!
But it's a 767. ;)
Hello,on which video can i watch 5:35 to 6:15

At the beging are you in the yamonte Line?
Those "unnecessary melodies" are played in the station to annouce the departure of the train... They're deployed as a nicer and less annoying/stressful alternative to the bells 😀 especially in the hassle of commuting
are you going to fly around Philippines?
This aircraft JA602A is retiring this December🥺
Nooooooo 😢
And now the new special livery from Air Do is the Rokon jet to replace this beautiful livery.....
You can go to sapporo by train
