I just found your profile tonight when my boyfriend showed me your review of a Chinese airline. I find your style refreshing and smile very nice. Your 6-4 friend is very nice too
24:00 The light brown bits on white rice is "bawang goreng" or fried shallots. Indonesians like to add this condiment to any food, whether it be rice congee, mie goreng, soups, gado gado salad. Surprisingly the Danish add this condiment too: when I was in Copenhagen they serve hotdog with fried shallots and is commonly found in their supermarkets. I thought it was an Indonesian thing.
I've been following you for a while, and I totally adored this video. Mainly because of the vlog at the end. I think you should make more room for the vlogs and not shorten them so much. I know, you present yourself as an aviation enthusiast, but the vlogs are a gem! I love traveling and any vlog from an interesting place is welcome!!!
I remember Garuda in the bad old days when it had a questionable safety record, poor service and unreliable flight schedule. Glad to know the airline has come far from those dark days and its much improved in safety, service and reliability.
@@rachkate76 I don't think she helped the airline much, reputation-wise. haha. Gaurda's planes were crashing left and right when she was doing the commericals for them. In fact, at one point, Garuda was banned from flying to the EU because of it's poor safety record. Although to be fair, this wasn't a problem unique to Garuda, as the rest of the Indonesian airlines generally had a dreadful safety reputation, airlines like Adam Air had a notorious record of skipping on maintenance and making the regulators look the other way. Then the Indonesian authorities finally decided enough was enough, they needed to do something to improve their airlines. Adam Air was shut down. Garuda was overhaul in management and safety became a priority focus.

One of benefit if you fly down to Indonesia with Garuda, you'll get best or closer arrival gate, usually you wouldn't need to take long walk to Immigration.
Your hair was kind of wild in November! Nice review and vlog. The flight looked........ "fine" (as one of my friends would say), but it really didn't seem to have much of a "wow" factor. Like great, two full drink services, bur you also get those on US transcons which are of similar length. You and 6'4 are absolutely adorable together in this video. Happy New Year!
well it was Movember, but I let it grow on my head🤣 True but I appreciated how all services included alcohol, with Qantas they usually cut alcohol for the second service, but you can still request them to get it from galley
Hi Jayden. Last Week I flew Garuda Back To Indonesia For holiday, but I stop In Jakarta. I flew a330-300 in older version. About food, I love beef rendang with turmeric Rice. The drink selection also very impressive, a lot of choice and the crew also very friendly. Love your Trip Report with Garuda. 👍👍
Thanks for another great trip report. I have wanted to try Garuda, but have never really had the chance. I do love flying to Bali, so maybe next time! Happy to see that you and 6'4" were able to take a trip together. Love the night life in and around Seminyak. Looking forward to your 2024 trip reports
hey jayden! im a new subscriber and i love seeing you and 6'4!!! please please consider making a vlog channel... my fav part of the video was you showing us bali LOL so cute xx !!!
Great review to wrap up your posts for 2023 Jayden. I`ve never flown Garuda and am very impressed with their offering on this flight. Thanks for sharing your travels with us for another year, and I wish you and 6ft 4 safe travels and all the very best for 2024.
Garuda looks really good in economy. The food also looks amazing. Bali is definitely on my bucket list and looks like a great time. Happy New Year Jayden!❤✈️🎊🎉
Whole Indonesia is food heaven, BTW world map is inaccurate since Mercator projection 1569, real Indonesia is huge as Russia and even much richer than the rest of the world. Even Australia and Madagascar Africa were part of Indonesia before western stole them.
Me and my significant other flew with Garuda to Aus quite a few yrs ago from Amsterdam to Adelaide and due to flight changes we ended up in Bali at their expense for 5 days which was a nice gesture I also remember on the way back both of us got a little tipsy on the very generous measures of scotch that they served us !
It’s great to see 6′4″ and you both together on the videos. Garuda had direct flights from CDG to DPS years ago prior 2020 but they had drastically reduced their European flights after the pandemic and nowadays I guess only Amsterdam is still operating in codeshare with KLM. Thanks for your report! 😘👍
wow CDG DPS didn't expect that. Probably more demand soon as Indonesia will be dropping the visa requirement for some non-Asean nationals, likely French and Aussies included :)
@@JaydenWong basically EU citizens do not require a visa for Indonesia if we stay less than 30 days. I guess Garuda had cut off most European routes coz they were in a very bad financial situation and it worsened after the pandemic. Hope you enjoy Bali.
@@pharadornchuengcharoensris7336 Really? WOW one of my friends told me they’ve flied with Garuda to Bali years ago and they were very happy with it but they forgot to mention they transited thru London 🤔

7:10 - I have to correct you, that is NOT the 1st Garuda livery from 1949. It's the 2nd, from 1969. The 1st Garuda livery from 1949 can be seen on one of their 737s, PK-GFM. PK-GHC, along with GPZ, GHA, and GHD, are not refurbished; the seats are as they are currently right from the factory (now...why on earth did GA not refurbish their older A330s is beyond me). Nevertheless, nice vid as always! Source: Planespotters
What a great outlook on an airline that my ex-wife and I flew back in the the late 90's on our 2nd of 3 visits to Bali. Sadly back then Garuda didn't have a great reputation, but your video showed a complete different view of an airline that I never thought of flying with. As for your vlog at the end it will come in handy when I visit June 2024 after officiating at the Darwin V8's as an official for the 11th time. It was nice to see the return of your buddy (hehe) 6'4'' on one of your trips. 10 out of 10 again Jayden
@@JaydenWong Your reports and blogs are interesting with great info on the area that you visit for reference to see and do. I’ve been a Motorsport Official 16yrs and have worked at several tracks here in Australia and overseas. 🏎🏁
As a Oneworld flyer myself, I personally hope you never get rid of the “G’day Oneworld Flyer Squad” intro even when you fly carriers in other alliances 😂 So lovely to see your travels as a couple! Here’s to more in 2024! All the best to you both! 😊
lol I thought you missed the seat coat hook. I actually paused the video and rewatched the seat tour in case I missed you mentioning the coat hook. 😅 Garuda's Economy is impressive especially their meals. Their meals, drink service, amenity kits and the amenities in the toilet are Business Class level.
That day when you fly, I actually saw ur plane from my home and the view out of Sydney is always stunning. I just flew with them last week, but on an older A330-300 which is quite outdated tbh. The seat looks indeed a bit more on narrow side, but I'm actually okay with it. The drink service before the meal service is great, I forgot last week if I got drink before my meal or not. The voml actually looks promising, compared to many airlines I'd seen through your video. Beef rendang is always amazing, especially with turmeric rice, I also ordered the beef and it was so good, but it's a little different with this one. The bun is also different, mine was boring because it's just a plain bread lol, good on you for getting the one with sesame. Fyi, I think this particular plane isn't refurbished, it's a fresh and new airplane delivered to Garuda in 2016. Considering the price, if you want a full-service on your journey Garuda is a good one to pick, Qantas on the other hand can be an option but they only did 1 service in my past flight with them to Denpasar (from Melbourne). Nice trip report Jaydenn, as an Indonesian, I feel happy that you enjoyed the flight with Garuda Indonesia. Happy new yearr and see you next year, can't wait for your next trip report.
I was quite impressed and very happy with the meal I got! Shame you didn't get the sesame on the bun haha. Interesting that Qantas only did one service, would've thought at least another drink service before landing. thanks for sharing!
Your video put my mind at ease. I'm so much more relaxed now that I have an idea of what to expect from My First Flight out of Australia 🌏🏄🦘 I was really anxious. So thankyou so very much for your honesty, video footage & Cherry disposition boys. Bless you both. 💖💖
Great review, flying GA soon MEL - DPS so found you looking for reviews of GA, you are a great presenter and cover all the good points of flying and love a good econ review.
Damn, based on those prices, I almost think Garuda might give you the best value for money when flying to Bali, especially since they do it on a widebody
Great video and I love your desire to continue to try new airlines. 2 questions, firstly do you prefer the footrest or would you rather more legroom and secondly Conrad or Hilton Bali?
Thanks Oscar! More legroom for sure! I barely use the footrest (and leg rest in premium) Hilton felt newer but further away from the airport and mainland, so it’s a bit more expensive to Grab if you go out everyday. Supposed to have a nice beach but it was under construction. Conrad has nicer pools but rather terrible beach😩 Breakfast very good in both locations!
Great video, Jayden. Looks like you had a good experience on your first Garuda flight. Not too bad for the price. Also, the Hilton looks great as well. Hope you had a great time in Bali with your friends and 6’4”. Happy New Year!
he is VERY LUCKY to have you in his life.....in fact you BOTH seem like nice young men...SO are lucky to have found each other in today's world @@JaydenWong
4:06 It reminds me during COVID when some trams in Melbourne wore masks at both ends to remind passengers that it was mandatory to wear one on public transport :)

Cheap flights to Sydney from SFO for Madi Gras in March 2024. Grabbing two now, less than $1000.00. Just flew Swiss Air SFO to ZRH in first class. JUST AMAZING!!!! FYI ….6’4” can easily stretch out on the beds with a glass of Salon champagne and then go behind the curtain to visit you in 56A. 😂😂😂❤
hello Steve! Unfortunately from Perth, Garuda only fly to Jakarta at the moment. everyday but Saturday. For Bali, their low-cost subsidiary Citilink is flying
Amazing video! It’s soo amazing that Garuda utilised and has started utilising this newer aircraft variance on Aus flight! Hope your new year goes amazingly!
I've flown Garuda in Business 777 LHR-CGK a few years back, great flight and service! Hoping to do some local Garuda flights in April when arriving in Jakarta with Sri Lankan
He has done one of them the PR A330-343X. If you ask him between a Cathay Pacific and Philippine Airlines version of the same plane. Jayden's answer to that is the CX version. It's been the case of PR mainline flee way below than the CX version. Pre covid-19 if you did CX899 EWR-HKG and then go to MNL on CX907 you will find that the CX899 or CX907 A359/B77W is better than the PR127 A359/B77W
@wilfredlaurencelabuson573 I agree and if you ask him about A321neos Jayden sees this as CX>PR A321neo RP-C9930-RP-C9938. If you want to ratchet up the difference then its this CI =KE=CX > PR A321neo.
haha high five! I'm a Hilton guy too. Hilton Bali was the only beach resort in Asia I ever stayed at haha. I tried Fiji too, very nice pools but rooms a bit tired and out. Beach is meh too. Conrad HK for the view. Hilton Odawara (about 1-2 hours from Tokyo) for the onsen and massive property. I'm sure they are some very nice ones in Okinawa island too. Hilton Singapore is the largest Hilton in Asia Pacific, with over 1000 rooms. The lunch buffer is affordable and a must try even if you're not staying there. Doubletree Noumea in New Caledonia (not quite Asia) has overwater bungalows. Very affordable compared to Maldives. But watch out for swimming ban when there are sharks around. What about recommendations from you, would love to hear :)
Awesome! I'll look those up. Well the Conrad and Waldorf Astoria are great properties in Mexico, specifically Tulum and Cancun. The Tulum beach was not the best though. Our first trip to Asia is going to be Bangkok in Fall of this year. Love the Conrad in NYC but of course no beach there! Conrad St. James in London us a great location, great Diamond perks but smallish rooms.
10:20 those coat hooks are for littlies like meeeee. 👶🏽 13:14 When you do the airplane for 6’4” on the airplane. 😂 ✈️ I feel like the rice meals needed more sauce and protein/ veg as the ratio was a bit off. But overall the dishes looked good. 3 meals between you, desserts plus snacky snacks is pretty good for a 6 hr flight 14:55 the views leaving the WA coast must have been beautiful. I haven’t been to Bali in so long- seeing just another shitfaced bogan there is my biggest turnoff. Looks like you all had a great time. Nice upgraded room you got there too and a beautiful view. 23:12 😂😂😂 25:18 those ribs look delicious. 🤤 Happy New Year to you all and be safe over the break. Looking forward to your new vlogs in 2024. 🎉♥️
"shitface bogan"🤣 in my experience, Bali is like Australia, some places you have North shore Sydneysiders without bogans. Some places you have bogans only LOL. happy new year!!
Great video! Sorry I was a bit late commenting, flying on QF10 Perth to Melbourne in a few days. It would be pretty cool to see a across country journey like melbourne to perth or perth to melbourne and maybe head up north on a regonal plane such as the fokker 100.
6’4” has a great smile, as do you! With a world wide uptick in Covid, mask reminders are smart. Nice tour of your seat area. Smooth take off with lovely views! Impressive that economy has amenity kits, full bar service and good special meals. Meals looked great! ❤ Fully stocked loo is a nice surprise. The snack was skimpy. Very thorough review, I enjoyed it. It’s been a fun year watching you!!
Great video, I wish Garuda was back flying to Bali from Perth! Even though Hilton Bali looks fabulous, you were probably better off staying in Seminyak since you ate in Seminyak and Canggu.
Some minor errors in the video, thanks for those who pointed it out.
00:34 SYD terminal 1 (not 2)
7:10 it's a livery from 1969, Garuda's second livery
End of year mistakes!!
hope you enjoyed in indonesia
Mantap 👍 keren

aha welcome to my channel Gary! :))
24:00 The light brown bits on white rice is "bawang goreng" or fried shallots. Indonesians like to add this condiment to any food, whether it be rice congee, mie goreng, soups, gado gado salad. Surprisingly the Danish add this condiment too: when I was in Copenhagen they serve hotdog with fried shallots and is commonly found in their supermarkets. I thought it was an Indonesian thing.
I've seen them in IKEA too! not cheap though haha
thanks for watching :)
Plus a "serundeng" in yellow, a pan-fried shredded coconut!

Thank you so much! Appreciate you always watching and commenting🥰
Jayden and 6’4” a match made in heaven 😊
haha thank you! :))

12:43 I appreciate 6’4” for using the spoon to scoop up his _nasi kuning_ (yellow turmeric rice) instead of the fork 👍
haha he is very good with cutlery. Uses chopsticks better than I do
@@JaydenWong man, he’s truly a keeper 👍
Wow... As always, nice flight report with the nice airline #thumb-up

I Havent Experience Garuda Indonesia Jet,Love The 2-4-2 Seating. Great Trip Report
thanks Gunvald!!
great review! I am soon going from Melbourne to Bali in September 2024 in an A330, tysm for this review you really helped so much!!
Great video and I love your desire to continue to try new airlines. 2 questions, firstly do you prefer the footrest or would you rather more legroom and secondly Conrad or Hilton Bali?
Thanks Oscar! More legroom for sure! I barely use the footrest (and leg rest in premium)
Hilton felt newer but further away from the airport and mainland, so it’s a bit more expensive to Grab if you go out everyday. Supposed to have a nice beach but it was under construction. Conrad has nicer pools but rather terrible beach😩 Breakfast very good in both locations!
That's interesting, than what would justify the extra cost to fly premium economy for you?
Travelling to bali on this aircraft in 4 days, can’t wait
Definitely best choice to fly to Indonesia
Their FA is the back bone of their superior service , food wise , I wish they increase the meal portion
Great video, Jayden. Looks like you had a good experience on your first Garuda flight. Not too bad for the price. Also, the Hilton looks great as well. Hope you had a great time in Bali with your friends and 6’4”. Happy New Year!
Great trip report like all ways. Hope you had a great christmas and all the best for the new year.
thanks David, same to you, have a great 2024!
hope you and your boyfriend had a good Christmas and will have a Happy NEW YEAR....
thank you! We spent NYE together :)
he is VERY LUCKY to have you in his life.....in fact you BOTH seem like nice young men...SO are lucky to have found each other in today's world @@JaydenWong
4:06 It reminds me during COVID when some trams in Melbourne wore masks at both ends to remind passengers that it was mandatory to wear one on public transport :)
Garuda does it first
This is just getting better as time goes on Jayden, your videos are just too good. Also have any plans for flyong sq in 2024?😊
Yes planning a ‘big’ trip with SQ😊😊 Thanks for watching!
@@JaydenWongprobably the world’s longest flight
Ye @htan5821 prob from Singapore to JFK
The video quality is excellent, what equipment do you use please?
thanks! I use iPhone 14 pro :)
Cheers Jayden, turning 24 in '24 and 6'4.
HAHA you'll get A+ in English class
A very smooth landing🎉
Happy New Year! Thanks for sharing your trip.
finally garuda reviewww 🎉
hahaha everyone waited so long
Welcome on board on No. 1 World's Best Cabin Crew 2023 and For Many Years The 5 Star Airline Garuda Indonesia.

Cheap flights to Sydney from SFO for Madi Gras in March 2024. Grabbing two now, less than $1000.00.
Just flew Swiss Air SFO to ZRH in first class. JUST AMAZING!!!!
FYI ….6’4” can easily stretch out on the beds with a glass of Salon champagne and then go behind the curtain to visit you in 56A. 😂😂😂❤
oh lala, enjoy Sydney, it'll be wild haha
Swiss First Class 😍 I really want to try ex-ZRH and sleep in their first lounge lol
@@JaydenWong The First lounge in ZRH was ok, showers nice but the best part is the car ride and separate custom agents are the best part of First.
Ah now I wished myself a mister 6'5 fly and travel the world together with me 🫶
I have my fingers crossed for you 🤣
Great video again. I wish you two lovely guys a very good and healthy 2024.
thank you! :) happy new year!
hi mate
your a flying guru. Do you know if Garuda is ever going to fly out of Perth again? they were my favourite airline to fly to Bali.
hello Steve! Unfortunately from Perth, Garuda only fly to Jakarta at the moment. everyday but Saturday. For Bali, their low-cost subsidiary Citilink is flying
Thanks and wish you happy new year
thank you! Happy New Year! :)
Amazing video! It’s soo amazing that Garuda utilised and has started utilising this newer aircraft variance on Aus flight! Hope your new year goes amazingly!
thank you! :) happy new year!
Luv ya work mate! 👍😎
Garuda take off n landing is always the best
Keep up the good work👍
Thanks, will do!
I've flown Garuda in Business 777 LHR-CGK a few years back, great flight and service!
Hoping to do some local Garuda flights in April when arriving in Jakarta with Sri Lankan
good to know you had a good experience with them too!!
Love the PH bigboys from PR and 5J doing a cameo during the taxi action.
He has done one of them the PR A330-343X. If you ask him between a Cathay Pacific and Philippine Airlines version of the same plane. Jayden's answer to that is the CX version. It's been the case of PR mainline flee way below than the CX version. Pre covid-19 if you did CX899 EWR-HKG and then go to MNL on CX907 you will find that the CX899 or CX907 A359/B77W is better than the PR127 A359/B77W
@@EpicThe112 i just noticed this comment of yours and I totally agree! Between CX and PR A330s, CX feels way better.
@wilfredlaurencelabuson573 I agree and if you ask him about A321neos Jayden sees this as CX>PR A321neo RP-C9930-RP-C9938. If you want to ratchet up the difference then its this CI =KE=CX > PR A321neo.
Great to see you two travel together! I am a Hilton guy myself, any other Hilton recommendations in Asia? We love a good beach resort.
haha high five! I'm a Hilton guy too. Hilton Bali was the only beach resort in Asia I ever stayed at haha. I tried Fiji too, very nice pools but rooms a bit tired and out. Beach is meh too.
Conrad HK for the view.
Hilton Odawara (about 1-2 hours from Tokyo) for the onsen and massive property. I'm sure they are some very nice ones in Okinawa island too.
Hilton Singapore is the largest Hilton in Asia Pacific, with over 1000 rooms. The lunch buffer is affordable and a must try even if you're not staying there.
Doubletree Noumea in New Caledonia (not quite Asia) has overwater bungalows. Very affordable compared to Maldives. But watch out for swimming ban when there are sharks around.
What about recommendations from you, would love to hear :)
Awesome! I'll look those up. Well the Conrad and Waldorf Astoria are great properties in Mexico, specifically Tulum and Cancun. The Tulum beach was not the best though. Our first trip to Asia is going to be Bangkok in Fall of this year. Love the Conrad in NYC but of course no beach there! Conrad St. James in London us a great location, great Diamond perks but smallish rooms.
Love Garuda. They have a First service to Amsterdam irregularly which would be a joy yo report. Thanks J for another great review.
thanks Paul! I could probably afford their First Class Amsterdam-London if they bring that back🤣
10:20 those coat hooks are for littlies like meeeee. 👶🏽
13:14 When you do the airplane for 6’4” on the airplane. 😂 ✈️
I feel like the rice meals needed more sauce and protein/ veg as the ratio was a bit off.
But overall the dishes looked good.
3 meals between you, desserts plus snacky snacks is pretty good for a 6 hr flight
14:55 the views leaving the WA coast must have been beautiful.
I haven’t been to Bali in so long- seeing just another shitfaced bogan there is my biggest turnoff.
Looks like you all had a great time.
Nice upgraded room you got there too and a beautiful view.
23:12 😂😂😂
25:18 those ribs look delicious. 🤤
Happy New Year to you all and be safe over the break.
Looking forward to your new vlogs in 2024. 🎉♥️
"shitface bogan"🤣 in my experience, Bali is like Australia, some places you have North shore Sydneysiders without bogans. Some places you have bogans only LOL. happy new year!!
Bali looks amazing Jayden, hope you and Mr 6ft4 got your Budgy smugglers out😂🤣😂
LMAOOO
A smooth touch down 💪
Hello Would you know if seat 25a would be obstructed by the wing as it appear to be just over the edge of the wing
depends on your A330
This (my plane) for instance seems fine: www.aerolopa.com/ga-333-1
Not this though: www.aerolopa.com/ga-333-2
Glad to c 6,4 is back
Great video! Sorry I was a bit late commenting, flying on QF10 Perth to Melbourne in a few days. It would be pretty cool to see a across country journey like melbourne to perth or perth to melbourne and maybe head up north on a regonal plane such as the fokker 100.
flying Adelaide to Newcastle later this month on the E190 :)
thank you so much for uploading the video once again 😊😅😂🎉❤❤and what is your next flight video?
Probably Singapore Airlines 737 max :)
Interestimg to watch. Was waiting to see something from you about Garuda. Nice to see 6f4 again. Thanks Jayden !
Thanks for watching :)
Loved the aerobics on the Hilton bed.😀 Seriously though amazing to see Garuda has come a long way, since they almost collapsed during the pandemic.
True! Across the broad, so good to see many including Virgin Australia and Thai to be flying still
6’4” has a great smile, as do you! With a world wide uptick in Covid, mask reminders are smart.
Nice tour of your seat area. Smooth take off with lovely views!
Impressive that economy has amenity kits, full bar service and good special meals. Meals looked great! ❤
Fully stocked loo is a nice surprise. The snack was skimpy.
Very thorough review, I enjoyed it. It’s been a fun year watching you!!
Loved the flight really, especially the amenity kit and drink selection
thank you Patricia! happy new year!
You should make one video for New Arline Sichaun Air from Australia to Chengdu
Great video, I wish Garuda was back flying to Bali from Perth! Even though Hilton Bali looks fabulous, you were probably better off staying in Seminyak since you ate in Seminyak and Canggu.
I’m sure that’s just be matter of time! Their low cost subsidiary Citilink is currently flying Perth-Bali :)
@@JaydenWong I’m just tired of only having budget airlines to choose from. 😉
haha I feel you
Jayden what do you think of the JAL 516 crash at Tokyo Haneda?
Maybe a APU or auxiliary power units were not working so pilots had to start engine at a tarmac rather than when after push back so!.
Advance happy New Year to you, your family and 6'4"
thank you Norman, happy new year!!
7:27 That Cebu Pacific A339 sent chills....459 seat crammed in eww
urgh I literally turned my head to 6'4 and said thank god we're not on that banana 🤣
