we need more segments of kyle. he is wonderful and he kept me laughing on another video. what a kick back guy. totally chilled. glad that he was able to finally open his beer.
omg they are just too nice to people like kyle who just impose himself on the system for no better reason than because he wants a good time at other people's expense.
I liked Kyle also! I thought that even though he had some issues, he was calm, chilled, and was pleasant to his sister on the phone. Plus he thanked the staff for their help, which is rare. I like people who are like that. And yes I was happy when he finally was able to open his beer up!
Poor Kyle. It's one thing after another for the poor lad. However, he takes it all in strides and positivity. What a lovely positive, happy guy. We need a show that just follows Kyle around on his holiday adventure. Hahahaha
Can't wait to come back to Changi - my favourite airport . Will be there in October 2022 for the 9th time if not counting my first landing by sea during its construction in April 1979 as a Vietnamese boat person
@@vickiesmith3021 yes Changi is a special place in my heart .It is not just an awesome airport but it is a first piece of free land I stepped on after spending 4 years in a communist country where freedom of speech is a luxury
Wow! Changi Airport workers are very efficient, helpful, friendly and pleasant. Very service oriented. I enjoyed watching the interaction between airport workers and passengers.
@@Smokey420Greenleaf Pessimistic reaction! People who see good things being done to other people, they’re optimistic and glad about it. You? Questionable?
Awesome people @ Changi! The macaw they keep talking about is an African Grey, one of the world’s smartest birds, & hope he’s free of bird flu so he can continue on his trip!
Kumara Possitive attitude makes me want to travel to Singapore.... Such a Lovely and positive Man...Worlds Airport need someone with such Possitive Attitude.
My thought exactly. I can take a pity for those sri lankan/bangladesh workers who can be tricked but these smart ass american don't even want to buy a tix or a credit card?
Changi is the only airport that I'd love to be stranded in (bec of delayed flights etc...) I've been there a few times and time just go by. Lots of great things to see, restaurants, experinces. It's a whole nother world there
Miss Nina Amalina, with the beautiful purple eye shadow, was an absolute gem. Calm without mothering, efficient but reassuring, pleasant but earnest, exceedingly polite without being distant or officious, and above all: empathising of the passenger in distress. Having travelled most of my life as a diplomat's child, I have seen most every culture, and Ms. Amalina is honestly a wonderful exception to the state of virtually all airport customer support staff worldwide, which is de fakto burned out. The absurd level of stress airports impose on travellers and staff alike -- even those not on the autism spectrum like myself -- makes even slight problems, seem like the end of the world. This woman should be commended.
1:42:13 -- they aren't lost souls. This is what the aviation industry refers to as people who died or are in jeopardy of dying while IN flight. In this instance, they are just passengers who have a bad sense of time.
I remember sleeping at the Changi airport check-in area when I missed my flight home and the earliest flight was 12hrs later. That was back in 2016. I wish the Jewel was built by then, I would've enjoyed my stay there lol
At least I can see the foreign countries from the airport! Thanks, so mucho! LOL. I used to work at FedEx and traveled a bit on discount. I miss that. My nephew is a Federal Gov employee, but he is a supervisor out at the FedEx hub in Memphis, TN. You wouldn't believe what they confiscate on pkgs coming in and going out. Some people are so stupid and try anything to get away with. Even undercover stings are done on the receiving end to catch the criminals. Crime is a never-ending job for law enforcement.
This was fascinating! The agents were very helpful. One thing that all of the countries have in common, is not allowing large sums of cash without declaring it.
Yeah, it's also interesting seeing what amount it is. In Canada I believe its $10,000 Canadian dollars and here it was 20? Something like that. I don't remember well but I think in the UK it was 2,000 pounds.
Changi Airport deserve it's awards. There are airports around the world that seem to excel at horrible service The gold-standard at changi airport should be mandatory for all airports
2:20 If the airline doesn't give them many options maybe try to take domestic Indonesian flight to better destination. Depending on trip length they could take ferry to Bali from Java.
I think they should have folks qualified with horse handling to work operations where racehorses are involved. I especially think the owners/owners personal handlers should be there to help transfer the horse, it would reduce risk of injury and possibly make things run smoother and faster.
@@TheMangoMussolini oh I heard it lol it just sounded like they had special equestrian transportation folks working at the airport to do handling between connecting flights and such.
The point is checked bags are so that you can travel light and be comfortable. In the end, she had to drag 20 kg around the airport and onto the the plane. That carry-on is going to the dumpster by the time she get home. Happened to me one time, my carry-on was too heavy and the wheels were grounded to half. They were literally half moon shape by the end.
The first time I fly and landed Changi Airport 1998 and The last Time March 2015 🇩🇪🇵🇭I love Singapore 🇸🇬 Very thankful I have clise relatives living there as Immigrants My niece Charrise and nephew Jerico were the very 1st Filipino students who were elected by their classmates as Class leaders! Chua Chu Kang Elementary School Principal worked their status as Permanent residents of This beautiful Metropole of The Lion City❤️❤️❤️
Yes!! Then for fun, they should do a comparison with JFK or LAX and how passengers treat agents and the entire circus, lol…. Granted, yes, they know they’re being recorded but their service is absolutely amazing.
Back in 1999 I had to send a box back by ship from Japan containing dirty clothes, gifts from the teachers and students,etc. It took a month. My brother was angry when they pulled me and my students from our earlier JAL flight and bumped us up to business class because one of my students had a replica katana in her luggage. Gotta say, business class on JAL was fantastic! However it made us over fours late because we sat on the tarmac at JFK in our puddle jumper on route to Philly.
I hate crowds, and I'm terrified of flying. I want to die with both feet on land thanks. But the predicaments these passengers manage to get themselves into are amusing. But don't take your mad out on the agents and staff, they're just doing their jobs.
We need to take a good hard long look at all the service agents down to the tarmac workers and recognize and take hard notice that none of them are miserable, they all always have a smile on their faces, none of them are in poor health like high blood pressure at a young age, none of them are obese and they clearly all exercise before they start working in the mornings, therefore none of them appear to be in poor physical health, and as we all know typically they live well into their 80’s to 90’s and can get around and have a sharper mind then half the Americans in their 50’s. Maybe we need to find out their secret because I have been to at least 15 different airports in the states and the customer service people quite literally will refuse to help you until you get so frustrated with the stupid computer kiosk you want to put your fist through the screen, and even then it’s like pulling teeth from a llama before they will help you. Instead of super cool amusement things to look at or interact with our airports have rip off gift shops, rip off fast food places, and rip off bars. Sad but true. Maybe if we served healthy hot meals like they do we wouldn’t need so many fast foods in the airports. It has always fascinated me that they make just about everything they cook from scratch, they do it so quickly, and keep their kitchen immaculate while doing it, and you can clearly see how every family cooks and loves with their entire being no matter what and a lot of Americans love and cook with conditions and a do as I say not as I do attitude.
That’s so disappointing to see that friendly check-in agent allow that passenger circumvent the baggage allowance by packing 20kg into one carry on bag! Depending upon class of travel the allowance increases, but there is a maximum per bag due to the safety of others onboard. That unfairly sets up the cabin crew for unnecessary challenges at boarding. It’s way and above the cabin allowance, for one bag. Depending upon the airline the bag can be no heavier than either 8 - 10kg it also won’t fit in the overhead stowage. It’s a real trap with various allowance rules depending upon whether one is travelling to and from the US where it’s X amount of pieces with a good weight allowance, or.all other destinations where it’s weight irrespective of the number of checked items That’s where eTickets bite, the original coupon based tickets clearly showed the weight/price allowance per sector. If all on one continuous journey the applicable allowance gets applied the entire journey irrespective of how many sectors travelled. The rule applied is based on the country the journey originated. So confusing for people not paying attention to the details and can cost a lot of money, especially if there are multiple sectors. Internet reservations and ticketing is so convenient but there are many traps for those unaware.
That might have depended on what was actually inside the bag, for example, essential , medication, baby change and feeding products and equipment or anything else which simply couldn't be put into the hold. We don't know everything.
@@jenlfpotter3870 Hi Jen, Sorry for not responding sooner. I've taken the time to explain this, to help you out and be prepared, not to challenge your comment in any way. I totally appreciate where you are coming from. My knowledge and experience with this comes from working for many years as aircrew with a couple of major airlines, and an awful brief time on the ground as airport staff. It's a little lengthy, but here goes... If travelling with an infant you are allowed an extra bag for exactly what you've described. It still must be within the allowable weight though. It's a safety issue. Imagine a heavy bag hitting someone on the head, if the locker is opened without caution (items shift around inflight) or in severe turbulence a heavier bag can pop some lockers open and fall. A weight of even 7kg will cause neck injuries, heavier ones will cause nasty head injuries - particularly is it's an elderly passenger. It has happened to me as crew, after months of pain and other issues I ended up needing surgery on my cervical spine and now 10 years later it's still not fixed, I've now got a titanium plate and screws thanks to someone who'll never know what they did! That's why there are rules that have to apply to everyone, you can not predict every scenario - so it just needs to be avoided. Essential medications, items of value, important documents etc should always be carried in cabin baggage. Be absolutely sure of the volumes though when it comes to the LAGs (liquids, aerosols and gels) rule. So many people loose their favourite fragrance because the bottle is over 100mL and they didn't realise, also bottles of wine they think will be safer in their cabin bag than in their checked luggage. But again, it needs to be within the weight and size limit. If you are ever required at check-in to repack due to weight etc, the airline ground agent should explain, politely, what to ensure is in your cabin baggage and what is not. There are also rules for the carriage of dangerous goods (DGs), some items must be checked while others must be in cabin bags only, a couple of items can only be carried on you. There are many regulations to follow. While it seems like a hassle and it's confusing, please know it's often a legal requirement and it is always 100% for the safe and secure operation of the flight you are travelling on. You are absolutely correct that many passengers do not know, that is where the airline staff are there to help and advise. Some are better than others, but that's customer service - you get some champions and some horrors. The information is also on each respective airline's website, it really is worth taking a few minutes to do your research. I agree it could be made a lot clearer and more obvious, but even then most people don't look. Heck they don't even watch the safety demo/video half the time, and that is vital need-to-know information to prepare you to react immediately should anything happen. But that is an whole other conversation :) Low Cost airlines almost deliberately make the baggage allowance rules hard to find, then they can hit you with their overpriced fees. That's how they make their money off those low fares! Sneaky and cruel I think, because it often stings those who can least afford it. Please do educate yourself though on the weights and sizes of respective luggage when you fly. The airline won't accept 'you did not know', they'll only accept your credit card to pay the fees! Some less orthodox airlines almost depend upon it, especially the Low Cost airlines, read ALL their rules - they are cunning! Because each Kg of weight is equivalent to fuel burned, airlines charge very expensive rates for excess baggage. Low Cost airlines often may not have even included checked baggage in your fare, if you only need to check one silly item because of DGs/security rules - they'll hit you with their crazy fees. They are ruthless! Know the allowance for each flight you are taking if it is with more than one airline. There are also different allowances for travelling DIRECTLY to and from the US (the 'piece' system) and others for anywhere else (the 'weight' system). That catches a lot of people out. From memory that was the issue in the documentary that I commented about, where the agent made some poor choices. If you would like to know more or wish to clarify anything I've said, please respond back and I will reply, sooner I would hope than this time! Maybe share this information with your friends and family when they travel. Many many people are caught out every day with this subject - everywhere. The poor check in staff end up by being the 'heat-shield' for people's justifiable anger and frustration over what seems to be unfair and unclear rules. I hope this has helped in some way, I often wish I could help everyone understand all of the nuances with air travel, but I hope I have at least helped you. Take care, safe travels, and have a terrific day wherever in the world you are. Best wishes from down here in Australia! Cheers, Anton
It’s a matter of life choices. I’m 59 and have travelled and lived all over the World 🌎 I have no house, no car, no husband and no children or grandchildren. I chose a different lifestyle.
@@mariawerner8447 I didn't get to make the choices to be able to do that. You and I actually have the same surname as well as the guy in my state that did a really bad thing to a little girl and did 10 years for it. He has the exact same name as me (even the middle name) as well as a father with the same name as mine. I couldn't get a decent job in the field I went to school for while this guy was in prison because every background check brought him up. After decades of dealing with the fallout from this other guy's "life choices". I don't have a lot of high maintenance toys and a really small house (some pool houses are larger than my home), the car I have is 20 years old, and a job that pays pretty well now, but the life choices of other people (in Madison and Washington) have reduced my "wealth" to where I only get to watch tv shows of people going on holiday as opposed to getting to have one myself.
Tong’s mother should not be a parent, very irresponsible. Love the experience agents, they are amazing. The groomer definitely did not look professional at all, definitely would not pass the grooming test.
@Elyas Bin Yahya Rucker: I'm with you. Typical Malaysians. It's not the worst airport I've been in, but I don't see all the praise being heaped on it. People are so easily fooled by these fake docu vids... do they really believe that these people act this way in real life when there's no camera on them?

He seemed like a nice guy but trying to open his beer on the furniture wasn't cool.
He seems pretty chill, at least he kept his cool and did not give anyone a hard time. That goes a long way when dealing with people.

It has happened to me as crew, after months of pain and other issues I ended up needing surgery on my cervical spine and now 10 years later it's still not fixed, I've now got a titanium plate and screws thanks to someone who'll never know what they did!
That's why there are rules that have to apply to everyone, you can not predict every scenario - so it just needs to be avoided.
Essential medications, items of value, important documents etc should always be carried in cabin baggage.
Be absolutely sure of the volumes though when it comes to the LAGs (liquids, aerosols and gels) rule.
So many people loose their favourite fragrance because the bottle is over 100mL and they didn't realise, also bottles of wine they think will be safer in their cabin bag than in their checked luggage.
But again, it needs to be within the weight and size limit.
If you are ever required at check-in to repack due to weight etc, the airline ground agent should explain, politely, what to ensure is in your cabin baggage and what is not.
There are also rules for the carriage of dangerous goods (DGs), some items must be checked while others must be in cabin bags only, a couple of items can only be carried on you.
There are many regulations to follow.
While it seems like a hassle and it's confusing, please know it's often a legal requirement and it is always 100% for the safe and secure operation of the flight you are travelling on.
You are absolutely correct that many passengers do not know, that is where the airline staff are there to help and advise.
Some are better than others, but that's customer service - you get some champions and some horrors.
The information is also on each respective airline's website, it really is worth taking a few minutes to do your research.
I agree it could be made a lot clearer and more obvious, but even then most people don't look. Heck they don't even watch the safety demo/video half the time, and that is vital need-to-know information to prepare you to react immediately should anything happen.
But that is an whole other conversation :)
Low Cost airlines almost deliberately make the baggage allowance rules hard to find, then they can hit you with their overpriced fees. That's how they make their money off those low fares! Sneaky and cruel I think, because it often stings those who can least afford it.
Please do educate yourself though on the weights and sizes of respective luggage when you fly.
The airline won't accept 'you did not know', they'll only accept your credit card to pay the fees!
Some less orthodox airlines almost depend upon it, especially the Low Cost airlines, read ALL their rules - they are cunning!
Because each Kg of weight is equivalent to fuel burned, airlines charge very expensive rates for excess baggage. Low Cost airlines often may not have even included checked baggage in your fare, if you only need to check one silly item because of DGs/security rules - they'll hit you with their crazy fees. They are ruthless!
Know the allowance for each flight you are taking if it is with more than one airline.
There are also different allowances for travelling DIRECTLY to and from the US (the 'piece' system) and others for anywhere else (the 'weight' system).
That catches a lot of people out. From memory that was the issue in the documentary that I commented about, where the agent made some poor choices.
If you would like to know more or wish to clarify anything I've said, please respond back and I will reply, sooner I would hope than this time!
Maybe share this information with your friends and family when they travel.
Many many people are caught out every day with this subject - everywhere.
The poor check in staff end up by being the 'heat-shield' for people's justifiable anger and frustration over what seems to be unfair and unclear rules.
I hope this has helped in some way, I often wish I could help everyone understand all of the nuances with air travel, but I hope I have at least helped you.
Take care, safe travels, and have a terrific day wherever in the world you are.
Best wishes from down here in Australia!
Cheers, Anton
My husband had that happen to him in Agust. They let us remove somethings for his carry on . So it's very common to get confused about
I can't afford to drive 40mi to the nearest major metropolis, but these guys can flit all over the world. Must be nice.
No shit, right?
Ive been watching these all month, thinking the exact same thing. I don’t have $800 laying around to pay a fine for coggarettes
I think frequent flyers tend to be diplomats or those on business (i.e. their employer pays for it).
It’s a matter of life choices. I’m 59 and have travelled and lived all over the World 🌎 I have no house, no car, no husband and no children or grandchildren. I chose a different lifestyle.
@@mariawerner8447 I didn't get to make the choices to be able to do that. You and I actually have the same surname as well as the guy in my state that did a really bad thing to a little girl and did 10 years for it. He has the exact same name as me (even the middle name) as well as a father with the same name as mine. I couldn't get a decent job in the field I went to school for while this guy was in prison because every background check brought him up. After decades of dealing with the fallout from this other guy's "life choices". I don't have a lot of high maintenance toys and a really small house (some pool houses are larger than my home), the car I have is 20 years old, and a job that pays pretty well now, but the life choices of other people (in Madison and Washington) have reduced my "wealth" to where I only get to watch tv shows of people going on holiday as opposed to getting to have one myself.
there was a sense of sadness in the narrators voice when he found the bird clear for Avion Flue 🤣🤣
35:57 FYI that is diplomatic Cambodia passport. Moral of the story do not mess with Singapore even you are travelling with Diplomat passport :D
not sure why anyone would want to go to singapore or cambodia in the first place unless they had to for work.
@@Smokey420Greenleaf Singapore is a beautiful country
I don't understand weight limits when all that weight is going in the airplane anyways how does this make sense
I wondered that too. I thought I misunderstood at first.
Great documentation!
But watching this dude trying to open his beer is the most embarassing thing i ever saw....
All Kyle needs to do is take the lady to dinner and then marry her!
Gen z is doomed if he can’t open the beer . Jesus !!!!
2:34:24 no the 101 isn't a Volcano

1:02:55 yes because that’s such a threat from some grandparents
I love changi airport.
Wonder when this was filmed dude had a damn blackberry phone
😂😂😂😂

That bird is not a Macaw. It's a freaking African Grey. What a nunce.
My guy has the same kind of crazy ass bad luck as me.
Tong's mother seemed to be so busy on her mobile, she didn' even realise her son was missing!!
why does he say that some of the pilgrims might be saying goodbye for the last time? won't they come back?
Not forever, but before departing 🤣
Tong’s mother should not be a parent, very irresponsible. Love the experience agents, they are amazing. The groomer definitely did not look professional at all, definitely would not pass the grooming test.
Watched this at vienna airport
This video was first uploaded several years ago.
Why does the grooming teacher look like she just got out of bed and then rummaged through a bin for food?
Only two runways? Did I hear that right? How can they handle that high level of incoming and departures?
Efficiency by air traffic control and the fact of having the runways built spaced enough to handle them as indepedent runways.
Tweety is an African gray parrot not a macaw
What a horrible mom poor tong
the most kyle that ever kyled
I was there 4 times. It’s not friendly. It’s aggressive and rude.
@Elyas Bin Yahya Rucker: I'm with you. Typical Malaysians. It's not the worst airport I've been in, but I don't see all the praise being heaped on it. People are so easily fooled by these fake docu vids... do they really believe that these people act this way in real life when there's no camera on them?
