That's my airport
Oof. That ain’t cheap, but the comfort on that long a flight might be worth it!
Noel, you should've done Boston to Honolulu, the longest domestic flight in the US at 11 hours!
You're right, I just sold this flight to 2 of my clients (I didn't even know HA is flying this route non-stop 4x a week)👍🙂
He lives in Texas so it was easier to do this
Or even NYC to Honolulu would have been better!
Yes, United has a Newark to Honolulu, which is a longer flight
@@manis1852 bruh i was on that flight 3 weeks ago
I’ve flown first class on Hawaiian, but only on its now-retired 767s and once on one of its 717s. Never had a chance to fly first or business class on its A321s or A330s so far. It remains my favorite U.S. carrier because it’s not only headquartered in my home state, but I’ve always felt the aloha spirit as soon as I’ve stepped on board. Glad you enjoyed your experience. 🤙🏽
Great video! I was the boarding agent in the video. I’m so happy that you chose Hawaiian Airlines for your trip & review!
Awesome! Thank you!
Is that you in the picture? Because GIRL you are straight fire.
u got them melons
Excited for you to eventually fly the new Hawaiian 787 hopefully first class! (I work for the company that Hawaiian collaborated with to design the new cabin)
Been to Hawai'i 3 times, never been able to fly first class (always comfort+ or straight economy), but this shows what I've been missing out on! Thanks for sharing
You should do the longest domestic nonstop! Paris to St. Denis, Reunion!
His fellow travel Vlogger, Josh Cahill did this trip recently. Great video
Check him out
@@AodhanP that video is not Paris to st. denis
Paul Lucas (Wingin' It channel) just flew Dzaoudzi (Mayotte)-St. Denis-Orly on Corsair (A330-900neo business). Mayotte is closer to Paris, but the flight goes backwards to Réunion first because the runway at Dzaoudzi is too short for a fully fueled A330 to take off, so it takes off light with little fuel for a shorter hop to Réunion, refuels there, and takes off from the longer St. Denis runway nonstop to Orly.
Not the longest....
That is a flight of about 11 hours. Flying from St Petersburg to Vladiwostok takes nearly 13 hours.
Aww good of Noel to be traveling with his mum on this trip.
She was a lovely old lady from Austin going to see her son in Hawaii
Love Hawaiian, probably my favorite of all US based Airlines. Maybe the destination helps a bit, but having flown all their products in all classes, I've overall been thoroughly impressed with them.
I always prefer Alaska over Hawaiian, mainly due to having status with Alaska. But can say Hawaiian I would choose if I wasn’t a frequent flyer
@@pizzadispenser1389 If things go as planned with the Alaskan/Hawaiian merger, looks like you may get your wish. I hope it works out too, Alaskan has a great mileage program.
"So glad I live here" -- you won't be saying that in August.
One Texas summer was enough for me
I'm just glad to see someone else who likes airline food. It's my favorite part of flying first class.
Always been interested in Hawaiian airlines and Hawaiian history in general. You right it is really one of the much nicer A330 liveries & the service on board seems great! I think this is definitely an airline that is going to be added to my bucket list.😁 Great Job again Noel!
Love that intro and how you've changed your content to coincide with your new home 🤠👍 Really adds something unique to your already great videos!
flying 8 hours to the most beautiful place in the US, just to check into an airport motel leaving the next morning. what a shame you are not spending more time to enjoy oahu.
Hopefully he found time to grab lunch at Helena's or a box of malasadas from Leonard's on his way back to the airport 😃
When I moved from New York to Hawaii, I used to take the Hawaiian no stop between HNL and JFK all the time. For a US based airline (I know, that sets the bar pretty low), I always thought they were pretty good.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I did it in 2019 from HNL-JFK in eco class and it wasnt great at all, the seats they use are not made for flights that long, west coast USA would be tolerable in them but 10 hours, no
Mr. Phillips if you ever decide to re-visit Tucson now that your in Texas, give me a shout, I’ll show you around and see what I can do to give assistance in giving you a proper tour of the world famous military Aircraft boneyard.
I retired from UA as a a Customer Service Team Leader out of EWR (Newark Liberty Intl Airport) and we had a non stop flight daily from EWR-HNL and it was a 10.5 to 1100 hr flight non stop! 9 hrs from IAH is a few hours shorter!
I live in Texas. By car it takes over 6 hours for me to drive to El Paso and 6 hours to drive to Houston. Austin is a good 3 hours away. Yup, Texas is a big state. Texarkana is closer to Chicago than it is to El Paso.
I flew back into Houston 2 days ago, from Taipei. When we entered Texas over El Paso, we were as close to Houston as we were to Los Angeles! Crazy!
That’s why Texas is 💩🚽👎
I hope you and your family are settling down nicely in the USA. I’m sure the people are making you feel very welcome. Great video!
Yeah all republicans and pro Trump! Disgusting
Yeah, contrary to the bulk of political garbage that "swirls" out of Texas, the people seem very genuine and friendly. I drove through Texas at least 60+ times in my ten year long haul driving phase of my working years. Knew a few Texan's while in the Marine Corps as well.
@@Wolverines77 Texas is actually quite normal politically in the big cities, especially Austin. It's in the rural areas that people tend to go overboard with conspiracy theories and other far-right garbage.
Great video, Noel. We fly Hawaiian quite a bit out of SEA and I agree, the service and food are top notch and much better than the mainland legacies' service to the islands.
I hope you got to try some of the 717's on interisland service, or one of the copters that gets over to the Forbidden Isle of Ni'ihau!
Thanks for sharing!
🏴I would like to see what it was like in economy where most of us fly
I love your love and appreciation for the US. There are now two of us 😁
Your move to Texas shows. You look very happy. Waiting for your next video. It would have been nice to take Rach with you. The hotel even at the airport looked refreshing with the pool and ocean.
Hope to see you in South America soon. Greetings from Colombia.
The longest domestic flight within the USA is from Boston to Honolulu. I believe they had this route at the time of your video. They had jfk to Honolulu for a while though.
Hawaiian looks very plush I must say.. love the livery also ..Amazing capture of that building at 2:59 by the way !! 😮
Thank you for including the meals in your video. I'll be flying the BOS-HNL leg in 2 weeks so it was helpful to see what I'll be served (the AUS and BOS/JFK legs have the same menu).
Recommend Medici coffee near Gate 5 if you don’t want to buy Starbucks.
Hawaiian’s longest route is on the same type going to BOS and back from PHNL.
I love it "A-loo-ha"!!! LMFAO
Hi Noel. You do great work, but please make them longer it’s so interesting.
No the shorter videos are better as they are perfect for lunchtime viewing
How about Paris to Cayenne in French Guiana which is an overseas department of France. That would be another very long domestic flight
no, the new 787 will have NINE (9) rows of first class 1-2-1 seating for 36 total first class seats. I already booked a HNL-LAX roundtrip in seat 9A
Recently flew United's Honolulu to Washington DC flight.....9.5 hours on a United 767-400.
Its so much fun to watch Noel discover Texas and our wonderful country!
Should have come before Biden.
@@jimhesch1404 Exactly!
*cough*
Car dependent country
The US has many wonderful areas and aspects. Texas does not count among the wonderful. (Source: I live in Texas.)
Great video! Just in time too... I'm flying them PHX to HNL next month!
Have an amazing trip.
11:39 ...walking through the massive concrete underbelly of parking garage and car access ramps:
Noel: "How cool is this beautiful, beautiful part of the world!"
Haha. I was thinking that! I half expected him to get mugged!
We go to Maui from NY every year on Hawaiian. JFK to HNL , 10.5 hours then puddle jumper to OGG. I love the experience they give us.
Noel, did you ever get your bag back from Brisbane Australia?
Looking very nice.
Thank you for sharing. Is there a panel divide between you and that person next to you.
Howdy from Austin, TX
Took you longer to fly to Honolulu than it took me to fly from Sydney to there!!😊
Nice watching you travel first class while i'm struggling just to keep warm while borrowing the neighbours wifi connection safe travels Noel
A happier trip than the last one (lost Luggage) that was a good one...Yaaaaah.
Another great video. One of the secret flights of Hawaiian, maybe not so secret. Is the Hawaiian flight to Sydney Australia. The perk of that flight is that you get to spend a full 24-hour layover in Honolulu.
A 24 hour layover in Honolulu? Should be enough time to get through the questioning by immigration officials then! 😳
I am travelling in september stopping at quite alot of American airports hope to see you hopefully
Nice but the space looks small u seem struggling in the seat.
Noel. I’m very proud of you. You’ve finally learned the country your living in!
Way to go! Keep up the interesting videos.
Thanks! 😃
So glad your r in texas now watching from granbury
You don’t fly economy any more ?
Who would want to fly a 9 hour economy trip to Hawaii ??? This is bucket list stuff !!
If you followed him on Instagram, you would see that almost all of that filming trip was in Economy. Those videos will be posted in the coming weeks.

All the time! Check them out. czcams.com/play/PLguXYxAmlm-a2B7TykFeFJAf0Tqlou3AF.html
No worries folks, he'll be back home in three days after he loses a pair of socks :p
Or worse...his undies 😁
@Tony F No, I can go for a week on one pair of undies. I am from Mansfield remember...
Now there's an idea, the @noelphilips goes commando series 😁
That was the most beautiful gate agent I've seen in my life.
She actually commented in his video!! Look for Guillermina Robinson
This makes me want to fly Hawaiian, everything looked great
When I was stationed at Prearl Harbor in the mid 80s, I used to fly on a Delta L-1011 non-stop from Houston.
Man alive, that would have been a good trip. The Tristar is one of my all time 'gutted I missed it' planes.
It would be nice to review economy class as well. Thanks for sharing 👍
i agree Sean, one for us peasants lol
Lmao i went on a a330 to Seattle and the ife was outdated, the seats were somewhat small and the food was trash but the fas were nice tho
It's so awesome you moved to the US. Texas will treat you and your family very well. Hope you stop by Maryland at BWI sometime. Thank you for the video.
Thank you so much!
Book'em Danno!....cool flight!
Keep going great videos
Thanks so much!
My fellow Texan I hope you and your family already settled into your new home 🏡 Blessings and I hope you enjoy Hawaii 😉.
Thank you so much for your kindness!
That's right you're a Texan now. I forgot!🤣🤩Great review Noel! Thanks!
Thanks, I am glad you enjoyed it!
Can't wait to take my Son & partner to Hawaii from Australia
i have always wanted to Go looks Beautiful
You should definitely make the trip!
“Hello and mahalo to Hawaii” translates to “Hello and thank you to Hawaii” 🤪
Looking forward to this video! Hawaiian is one of my favorite airlines! I remember the golden days back in the 80's, after moving from Dallas to Kihei, I would always keep an extra voucher booklet in my glove box!
Great airline for the most part!
Enjoy your flight, Noel, and Aloha!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Thank you!
Love that you have moved to the USA but you still call a bread roll a cob😭
I used to live near Fort Worth, and flying my own little airplane, a Long-EZ that cruises at 150 kts, it would take me three and a half hours to get out of Texas, and then only an hour-and-a-half to cross New Mexico and Arizona to get to Tucson.
Wow! Texas is huge!
Texas is amazing and you are so glad you live there??
hey Noel Austin to HNL is not the longest that would be Boston to HNL at 11hrs
Wow! That what we call long haul, that's a flight from Nigeria 🇳🇬 to the USA, 11 hours, thanks a zillion sir
He said one of the longest - we all know BOS-HNL is the longest
AUS is my home airport ... hope to run into you at some point now that ye have moved to Houston. 😎
Mahalo means thank you Noel ! I think you meant Aloha? 😂
😂
Noel : "When you live in Texas, it takes two or three hours [by air] to get out of it."
Me : "You don't know half of it, Noel." 😆
Smooth landing
I just did ORD-HNL last Tuesday at 8:48 and HNL-DTW just now (7:55).
AUS-HNL isn’t as far…BOS-HNL is the longest domestic passenger flight (in the 50 states).
I’ve done LAS-HNL on HA’s A330 in F class. Seats are comfortable but a little funky to get out if you are in the window seat.
Yay! Much love from Austin
You came to Austin! Welcome brother!
You were at the Austin airport a day before me!
AA DFW to HNL is 1-2-1 seating. As a solo traveler I would prefer that. You appeared really close to your seatmate.
Hope your bag arrived ! Wouldn’t want another trip cut short
🤣🤣
You may already know this, but United offers nonstop service to Honolulu from Houston.
I took the 11 hour flight from Boston to HNL on December 5, 2022, and it was pretty amazing. Coincidentally, I'm in Austin while watching this video of you flying from Austin to Hawaii, which is where I used to live until about 3 weeks ago. :-)
Was it smooth?
I hope you had a friendly seatmate😃😃😃
@Noel Philips you flew over Orange County and my house! Did you see March Air Base before LAX? They have an SR-71 at the March Air Museum and I could show you around sometime 🛩
great flight as always why did you move to america anyway if i may ask
Another great video which I enjoyed watching.
Having read some of the comments, I can see that you did ask the woman sitting next to you if you could include her in the video, you do take care not to include people in videos, showing respect for their privacy.
I have a request - suggestion, could you show the menu or list the meal options in future videos.
Hawaii the gateway to the US from Australia …cheap Jetstar tickets from Melbourne or Sydney then use points to get to New York because it’s treated as a domestic US flight
Thank You for the great flight review, Lord Noel!
My pleasure!
Food looked great. Another great video, jealous as usual
I am glad you enjoyed it.
More positive video than the last few , Nice job
Love your enthusiasm for the USA and Texas!🤠 Austin in particular is a wonderful city. Make sure you hit 6th Street, the state capital building, the University of Texas, and the LBJ library. Stay safe😁✈✈🛩
Actually avoid 6th Street unless you want to get caught in crossfire between two fighting parties.
@@B2T. bruh that shit happens in suburban parking lots across the country. Can we quit with the fear mongering?
Looking forward to seeing where you are going in the Pacific.
I take it there will be no Air Calin this time though.
For the longest nonstop domestic flight over contiguous land, I'm thinking it would have to be something in Russia like St. Petersburg to Vladivostok. Honolulu to Boston, Alaska to Puerto Rico, Paris to Tahiti, UK to Falkland Islands, etc. all involve overseas domestic flights.
Paris to saint Denis in reunion also very long overseas domestic flight
Hawaiian Airlines 👍👍👍👍😍😍.. Stay Safe Always, Noel..👍👍
Thanks, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Would have been nice to see what economy class offers. Maybe some more economy videos lol
czcams.com/play/PLguXYxAmlm-a2B7TykFeFJAf0Tqlou3AF.html
Wouldn’t Boston to HNL be longer?
Noel, thank you for continuing to share these videos with us. Lately, I’ve noticed a fair amount of negativity in the comments. Please be assured that most of your viewers enjoy and appreciate what you are doing! As someone who’s lived in Hawai’i and flown on many Hawaiian Airlines flights, I enjoyed this edition very much.
Hey Colin, thank you so much for the kind words! Yes there are a small minded minority out there, but these days I find it much easier to laugh them off! Appreciate your support mahalo!
Noel, in the Summer of 2023, you should do a family road trip video of you'all driving out to Seattle through Salt Lake City and then back through Portland, San Francisco, LA, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Dallas and back to Austin. Rent a motor home for the trip and have the kids do a lot of the filming in the RV. I think it would make for a great video series and a fun family trip across the West of the United States.
It's not on unless motorhomes have a business class suite.
The amount of petrol it would take to fuel an RV on a trip like that would cost the equivalent of 4 first class seats on HA's AUS-HNL flight for Noel and his family.
I went from Singapore to Dubai for a video i was hoping to meet you
Are You Flying Mokulele in the next Episode. Really liked there Service last Summer.
Mahalo means Thank You
Love the iPad idea
Amazing video, following the situation in Napal I am getting a little nervous, but I still look forward to all of your videos. I hope your new year has been great.
Love the Hawaiian livery!
