Jump to postI actually find Josh Carhills videos pretty good , non-biast and entertaining. The lack of standards on QR flights within the Middle East on their older 321 and 330`s is well known and he just pointed this out. QR should have handled this all way more professional. If you say it's handled to Qatari ...

Jump to postI am wondering why other airline ( TWA , Pan Am , Lufthansa , Northwest etc ) who had big 747 fleets never converted them to a -SUD ? More passengers , better aerodynamics and more speed ? What’s the negative aspect of a -SUD ?
Jump to postTWA operated JFK - CAI - RUH until 9/11. American had the rights but never used them.

Jump to postHello there , I am planning a trip to Cancun. I damn choose between Eurowings Discover or Condor in Economy Class for the trip with similar flight times.
What option is better ?
- Food / Drinks ?
- Seats ?
- Entertainment ?
Any experience anyone?
They didn’t chance me. The flight was indeed operated by an old mediocre business class. I was in Row 2 and for some reason they serve row 1, 3 , 5 first and then row 2 and 4 which had the outcome that I had no good choice. Crew was mediocre as the seat itself. Screen was old and I think that was my...

As for Bellew at EasyJet. He was the COO so in charge for the operations. Because of him the moral of the crew is at an all time low. All of my friends at EasyJet are relieved of the departure of Bellew. Johann it’s next to go. He brought Bellew into EasyJet and his incompetence let EasyJet have mas...

Lundgren will be next , he is as useless and harmful for EasyJet and it’s reputation as Bellew. easyJet needs a new Carolyn McCall to be able to survive. And a lot of senior a...
Jump to postLufthansa and it’s Group is nothing better or even worse than Ryanair and even the business class is below average. Worst you can’t contact the airline, if you need to do any changes or if you are affected by a cancellation. Nobody will support you or you are ready to wait the duration of a long hau...

Jump to postWow , a lot of people here are facing the same problems with EasyJet.
I’ll guess the CEO and COO and some other managers need to leave - only another Carolyn McCall like CEO can rescue the sinking boat.

Zero chance ,
AA doens‘t even make money on the T/A routes to and from ORD with competition. That’s why they lack of flights from ORD. Would be nice to see them on ORD-FRA/BER/ZRH/MUC etc. again
