Glad you liked it. Cheers!

Yes there is Wi-Fi in Economy class but you need to pay to use it. It’s free for Business Class passengers however.

Hello. No I was able to select it for free

@@VimanPhotography in what circumstances are you able to select for free? are you a miles & smiles gold member?

They only operated the 777 on both their daily flights to Kuala Lumpur when I travelled. The A350 is being operated currently from the start of the summer season.

Great vid

This lounge is for Star Alliance Gold members even if they are flying in Economy Class. There is a separate lounge for Business Class passengers, which I visited a couple of years ago and is pretty similar to this one.

Indeed. They’re super friendly

@@65bdman65 Thank you!

@@chrisf2022 Thank you. Hope you have a great flight!

Thank you. I see, looks like Turkish sells those seats as Economy Class with an extra charge

Thank you. I could use the lounge due to my Star Alliance Gold status.

@@VimanPhotography i see, how can avail to be a member Star Alliance?

@@mommygel8945 You can sign up for the frequent flier accounts of any of the Star Alliance member airlines. You can find the details here: www.staralliance.com/en/earn

Thank you. All the best for your upcoming flight!

Yes

@@Milencio1976 good to know!

@@Po-po-17 True. Their 777s really need refurbishment to keep up with the competition

The earlier you book, the better it would be. The solo seats tend to get sold out quite quickly, depending on the season. I booked 2-3 months in advance IIRC

@@VimanPhotographyGood to know, I’d expect them to sell out fast. I’ll definitely take that into account. Thank you for your quick response.

they sell out extremely fast, especially if you're booking in advance for a peak season. just last week, we bought a ticket for december and my departing flight had only one solo seat left.

Lounge access is free for business class passengers

Okay sir thank you ☺️

Thank you!

This is Tiger Air Taiwan 🇹🇼 which still exists. Tiger Air Singapore has merged into Scoot

In Chennai, you could go into the city and enjoy some local cuisine. There is a metro station next to the airport that you can use to head to the city,

@@VimanPhotography Like Can you Recommend some places 🙂

@@sanatanigamerindonesia Ah not too sure. I'm not from Chennai 🙂

Premium Economy passengers don’t get lounge access unless you hold Gold/Platinum status with the airline or if you’re Star Alliance Gold

Yes it was

Glad it was helpful!

True that haha. Just easier to pronounce it as EVA instead of E.V.A. 😃

Best to check on Seatguru or the airline’s website - for EVA Air there is a nice seat map section

Thank you so much! Premium Economy seats are available to select when you book the flight in Economy Class. I was able to select a seat in the PY cabin at no extra cost (maybe due to my Star Gold status)

Indeed!

Thank you!

Pushback to takeoff was around 10 min or so. The flight time was 1hr 20min.

When you finish the customs X-ray check and enter the final arrival hall, turn right and you should see counters for Meru/Ola cabs at the end of the hall. You can book a cab there by providing your mobile number and address. The cab details will be sent to you via SMS. You then need to go down one level to the cab parking bays just outside the terminal. Your cab should be already waiting for you there. You need to pay the driver based on the fare that is displayed on their app once you arrive at the hotel.

Thank you so much Amol. Cheers!

LOL! How do you know if Turkish tickets were cheaper? Were you there with me when I was booking the ticket? FYI - Qatar was cheaper than Turkish and the only reason I booked TK was that it was a non-stop flight. Also, I was flying with family so I didn’t want the additional hassle of a layover. You prefer flying on Emirates, but their Business Class on the 777 also has a middle seat - go figure!

The point of a review is to provide feedback on what you are using, in this case, Turkish Airlines. Not because it ranks lower than YOUR choices, or because it costs the least, which in your view means it makes sense that it offers less. Again, not how reviews work. You can pay more and get less value, and the other way around, you can get way more value even though you paid less. Try to understand how reviews work before making comments that don't make sense!

Thank you! Yes, AI should definitely expand their OZ ops. They already fly to SYD/MEL. PER would be a good addition to their network.

Thank you! The A350s are being deployed on domestic routes for initial crew familiarisation/training and regulatory clearances before flying on international routes. The A350 will start flying on international routes (DEL-DXB to begin with) starting May 1. As more aircraft are delivered, it will start flying on long haul routes.

@@VimanPhotography thank you. I thought so too. There are many destinations in the US where AI can have direct flight to Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai in addition to New Delhi and Mumbai.

This was late night so the lounge was relatively empty. Started filling up early in the morning

Thank you!

Haha, thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you. A lot of firsts for me in this video, so had to cover these in greater detail. Cheers!

DaBomba, STFU and speak for yourself. Dont give shitty advice.

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

Thank you! 🙂

Indeed. An upgrade is long overdue!

Yes, the seats are more spacious than the 1-2-1 configuration. However, if you are seated at the window or middle seat, imagine having to disturb your neighbour or having to jump over them while they are sleeping.
