Thanks for following my Africa Adventure and I'll be back for more soon - tomorrow I'm off to Greenland so follow me on instagram.com/gotravelyourway for daily updates - Thanks☺
Enjoy it Greenland you going on Air Greenland a lot?
Which airline will you fly on next?
TP has been facing a lot of problems, however it is one of the safest carriers to fly. I've always had good experiences with them, even if with a couple of delays here and there. The crews are not super friendly, but once you engage with them, they are ok. The NEO is a really nice plane. As for corruption, it is everywhere Josh, at least over there it is out on the open; not that it is acceptable of course. Thanks 4 picking up TP. ❤️🇵🇹❤️
As a Patreon supporter, glad to see the contributions going to good use haha.. Seriously though, 497k subscribers, amazing! Any plans on a celebration at reaching half a million?
Ah, Greenland is on my bucket list. Lucky you!!
Lisbon is fantastic. I used to work for a cruise line and we docked in Lisbon quite a bit. Would love to go back one day.
todo portugal é unico.
vai cuidar das pessoas que morrem de fome por esse bostil fora....
Having flown TAP on a few occasions, I really enjoyed TAP. Got upgraded a couple of times as well and thoroughly enjoyed it!
Fantastic African series Josh! Really enjoyed. I’m half Mozambican, born and raised there. Flew on TAP many times on this route on the A340-300, very fond memories. There was a special feeling like if you’ve already arrived in Europe when boarding the plane in Maputo for my summer holidays in Spain. Back then like most airlines, the second meal service was a full hot meal. The flight was mainly a nighttime flight, departing Maputo around 8pm and landing in Lisbon at 5am. Dinner + breakfast with an omelette was a standard. I believe the shutting the window blinds is to allow everyone to sleep and easier to watch a movie, I’ve seen it on Westbound transatlantic flights as well.
It’s a pity Mozambique has become so corrupt, I understand that many salaries are extremely low and this is a chance to make a bit more but it has become so engraved in the dna of the country that sometimes you completely dismiss it, and just pay to get things done. I hope it won’t discourage people from visiting, Mozambique needs the tourism, and the people are warm and welcoming despite some of our shortcomings.
100% agree!
Why do you guys are trying to make it sound like Mozambique is that corrupt..corruption is everywhere in the world, you see it in Mozambique because you already have that in your mind so that even when people are simply trying to play with you because they are too friendly, you take that as if they are trying to get some money from you... you need to understand people's behaviour with an open mind before jumping to dirty conclusions based on your ungrounded thoughts. stop that
I only had the pleasure of taking the old service A340 once, in 2017, but on TAPs old, worn Biz recliners. It was definitely an experience, my first long haul business class trip and TAP was definetly making up for the worn cabin with excellent service and food. Fast Lane in Maputo consisted of a couple guys you could bribe to get taken to the front of the queues but once you got on the plane it was really special. Had the worst turbulence of my life on the way back tho. Straight down a couple hundred feet over the Sahara, soup on everone/thing in the cabin.
Unfortunately for me corruption is a key veto factor when it comes to choosing which country to go to for vacation... it is just annoying.
GO TAP 💚💛❤
🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹

I flight TAP 1977 from Cabo Verde to Portugal 🇵🇹. Portugal to Azores to Boston. Very good flight no complaints.
Describing a flight as boring is actually a compliment. I’d imagine you prefer a trip where your heart is in your mouth all the way.
I enjoyed the Africa series so thanks for that! Cant wait for more, i am guessing with Noel Philips next:) It looked draining too.
My guess as well
I think TAP is a great carrier. Being in the Star Alliance and being a full service airline with cheap prices really reels me in. I’m flying round trip to Faro from JFK with a stopover in Lisbon. It’s only about $80 extra for business on both flights with one reservation, which is great because even though it’s European Business, it’s still nice to get an actual breakfast on the short 45 minute flight to the Algarve after the continental breakfast served on the flight from New York.
it's not a full service airline, and it's far from great... actually it's one of the worst european flagship airlines out there service wise; i had a 4h transcontinental trip to africa in business without decent food (cold and blant), instant coffee and economy type seats, NO IFE ... it's not even close to an economy on an airline like emirates or ANA... i flew with TAP a couple of times so i know what im talking about
@Jinadath on a respectable airline, when it comes to service, especially during the flight, you can't expect to "get lucky"; the airline must be consistent with the service.... i'm not saying one detail could not go wrong on occasion, that happens, and as passengers we need to just cope with that; i'm talking about real bad service becoming a culture on this airline... they are safe and professional, but service wise it is degrading to unacceptable levels.. i will only book with these guys unless I absolutely do not have a choice
me to
@@sivipt 1. It is a full service airline.
2. It seems like you’re the minority of not liking it because 3 other people in this comment thread including me like it and have had nothing but good experiences.
3. You can’t be comparing TAP to Emirates and ANA. They are on different levels.
4. It’s my opinion
@@andrewmpachetti well, opinions vary, facts don't; if you want a poll on how great TAP is you should probably not stick to these 3... opinions; Yeah of course they are on a different level when one's economy is better than the other's "business"
Working in the customer service industry myself I know the biggest mistake a company or business can make is to ignore the feedback of even one person. That person has friends and family that they are sharing their experience with which means your not just losing the business of one customer (that you don’t care about) your losing the business of potentially hundreds of people. I wish more companies and businesses would remember that.
Thank you as a senior A330/340 TAP CAPTAIN
Love TAP! Can't wait to fly it again and do a trip report!

I took TAP Air Portugal on 2 occasions. The first time from YUL to BER via LIS and the second time from YUL to ARN via LIS. The YUL to LIS segment is done with a A321 Neo LR, a small airliner for a transatlantic, but the produce is better than Air Transat similar Aircraft on the same route. The big problem for TAP is Lisbon Airport. It is old, overcrowded and that meens frequent delays. And a lot of stress. On the return of my trip to Berlin, the incoming flight from LIS was 30 minutes late for trafic in LIS... and departed one hour late. So I miss my flight to Montréal. TAP crew at LIS were fantastic. They were waiting for passengers and I was put on a flight to Toronto then Montréal. I arrived 5 hours late... I asked for the 600 Euros for late flights and I got it with no problems. Second flght, on time... but... there were so much people on passport control and security that the 1h45 that I had between the 2 flights was not enough. I was the late in the plane as they were closing the doors... only because I took a shortcut in the line at security. So be sure to have plenty of time if you have a transfer at Lisbon. That's sad because TAP offers a great product at a very small price.
Hopefully within a few years Lisbon will have a new airport
I LOVE loooong daylight flights, gives you the perfect opportunity to enjoy the aircraft and service.
The thing with the closed window shades was on my tap flight to Miami too, I thought it was to prevent jet lag as you are supposed to sleep during the closed window time because it worked, but after your flight I actually would like to know the reason
American Airlines used to dim the window shades automatically on the 787 until passengers complained.
Prefer to arrive late afternoon or evening, and skip jetlag. Arriving early morning after a red eye usually triggers my jetlag.
Looks like a decent flight in the back !
Business Class meal looked good!
Safe travels onwards!
I love to fly at night it's best time and usually I fly 8hrs long so by the time it's morning I'll arrive at my destination, which I prefer.
In my days it was the Lourenço-Marques / Salisbury / Luanda / Lisbon flight on Boeing 707, and every flight was an adventure. But never ever arrived on schedule in Lisbon, most often getting stuck in Luanda to sort out "technical" problem(s), having to wait patiently on the first floor of the airport where we were given luke warm "cold drinks" of every colours.... It's also on one of those days that we had to wait for a spare engine from Lisbon, and it is the only time I saw in reality a 5 engine B707 as the incoming flight had the spare engine attached under its wing.
Yes, everyone should put our beautiful city of Lisbon and Portugal on their bucket lists 😁.
But whats funny abt tht😁
@@gamerbhai3696 Don’t know what you are talking about…your comment doesn’t make sense. If you are referring to the emoji, this is a smiling emoji, not a laughing one…not sure how you can confuse that.
I love Lisbon!
@@stuartdryer1352 😁👍🏻
Trying to get a Portugal visa but it's tough to get one.
TAP is one of the best and very friendly atmosphere.love you Portugal 🇵🇹🙏👍🌹
Flew TAP in 2018 Milan- Lisbon on the original A319, TTA. Enjoyed the crew who, along with pilots, wished us farewell on disembarking- a nice touch! I'll certainly fly TAP again.
I really enjoyed this African series! I especially loved it as I was born in South Africa. I would love to see an Australian series as that’s where I live now and there are lots of smaller companies to fly here and it is really fun!
I also live in SA
I love both night and day flights. Both have their perks. In the day, you get to see the city properly and at night, it looks beautiful with the lights and all
Whoever it is that you partnering with for the next Africa aviation pleaaassssseee keep to your authenticity! 🙏🏽 coz that’s the one huge reason I binge watch your videos
Don’t worry I won’t ever jeopardise that :)
the way he said "Obrigado" I can't- 01:59
you cant what? finish your sentence.
@@geographynateI can't deal with that cringe
@@rk6483 Good thanks for coming to my English lesson
I am really proud of TAP! Thank you Josh for your wonderful review.
Awesome video! I've really enjoyed the Africa Adventure videos, well done!
That's what I enjoy about Yr vlogs josh alot of youtubers do business class u sit in the back row keeping it real
Happy Birthday Josh!!! 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊
Great series Josh! Always love flying to/from Africa!
I flew Tap from
LHR to Lisbon and I agree Lisbon is beautiful specially at night from above , the business class within Europe is horrible and I would never upgrade few passengers complained and said it wasn’t worth the 500£ the had paid .
Great to see Africa series josh thanks greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Another excellent review Josh! Cheers 🥂
Thank you for this video!
Great Africa series Josh. Maybe one day you can come to the US and do a thorough review of all the US airlines. Will be curious to see your reviews particularly with Southwest and Alaska Airlines.
This!
Las Vegas via the Grand Canyon or Salt Lakes. Hawaii, NYC
Last week this A330 neo (cs-tur) had a engine problem when it is going from lisbon to cancun. They made a emergency landing on lisbon
Flew TAP from SFO to LIS and it was great. No complaints and affordable. Lisbon is magical.
Nice! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your experience. I love your videos.
I thoroughly enjoyed your African adventures. They were insightful aswell as shocking!! Your content is always high class and enjoyable.
absolutely wonderful video
I’ve done a lot of travelling by air since the 60s and seen many many changes including 27 years in the industry. I was thinking of using TAP as I have a friend whose gone back from here in Australia due to Covid and wants me to come. So thanks so much! Their business class is a good price as I’ve researched it as well. Thanks!!
Great content Josh. I've always dreamed to make some flight travels like you do.
Loved the video Josh - Can't wait for your next avgeek adventure.
Great videos. Thank you.
So happy that you are going to Sri Lanka can't wait for the video ✈️
Loved the Africa series Josh! Come to Australia and do that next please!!
Nice video! thx
I loved the Africa tour ❤️
I really enjoyed your African series. Well done Josh!
Hi Josh, have been watching several of your videos. It’s amazing! The efforts that you put in for the reviews, remarkable. Your videos aid in providing information on the airlines that one needs to prefer. I do prefer the day flights.
I really appreciate your content, great clips so far 😊
Obrigado. Safe travels. Have an amazing week. Cheers.
Awesome video 🔥🔥👍❤️❤️❤️
It depends on the distance an purpose of travel. I don't mind early hours of the morning flights for holidays as it maximised your time experiencing the country. Then later evening flights so you get a good last day.
Probably you knew it already, but in case you didn't, tap catering is one of the best in the world because back in 2017 all the catering was redesigned by 6 portuguese Michelin star chefs, not only the meals itself but the heating process, the packaging, the storage, etc
😂😂😂😂
Josh you should come to the algarve- anywhere to faro is a great flight- perhaps try other budget airlines
Great video! Hope to see an Avianca video soon. Thanks for everything
Thank you Josh love flying wish you success and more videos love it
Long day flights ✈️
Cannot wait for the next series!
Your presentation is highly interesting to watch. Thank you very much.
Always great to see a new vid out Josh, I am guessing either noel Phillips and maybe trek trendy. Love your vids keep up the great work!!
I loved this so much😍
Been watching all the videos and I have to say I've realy enjoyed your African adventure.
What an exhausting l-o-n-g day, Josh! And a blue loo, too… yoo hoo!! It’s always a great feeling if you’re down the back & you have a row to yourself, I agree. Cheers from Australia
Your comments are helpful when deciding what airline to take and what class to fly. Thanks.
Nice seats and nice video
I really liked you African Adventure videos, looking forward to you next set of videos.
great job 👍
Love your videos 🔥🔥👍❤️❤️❤️
Enjoy and keep safe👍🏼 happy flying ✈
normaly a more quiet viewer but that africa series was really fantastic, a lot of unique insights into carriers most of us will never fly :D
Great reviews from the continent! Really good stuff...am a little mad that you didn't make a stopover in Malawi to sample the country...will just have to wait for the next Africa review I guess...great stuff man!
My first ever flight was in 1962, from Zambia to Johannesburg! From then I loved flying… even though I was only 2 years old at the time 😅 I have not flown to many international destinations but am hoping that this year (2023) that I will be visiting family in USA which I am beyond excited about. To get up into the skies again will be so awesome.
Hey Josh! Always a pleasure when I watch your videos always top notch! Would love to see south America tour video with maybe some videos on visits to certain areas of South America. Keep up the amazing work you do for us all to enjoy 😊!
Loved the series ! The Air Peace was hilarious . Come to America and try a nice Detroit to Atlanta flight on a Holiday weekend
Loved your Africa tour!
I wish you can travel on TAAG again
Good job,i like the a330neo and 2-4-2 seating in eco a330
Africa always seems so unorganized and hectic when traveling. I want to see some places some bloggers usually don’t go. I thought I heard you say Greenland in your last Africa vlog so if you’re going there that’d be awesome!!
The budget for air-con was probably needed for bribes. I flew TAP in 1972 to Lisbon from Harare and was relegated to a crew jump seat when we landed in Luanda as the seat had been double booked. I couldn't argue as none of the crew spoke English.
@ユジン Yes, the world has changed, not always for the better and we were, even at that time, told so many lies about what was going on. All the "powers that be" have just become more sophisticated at telling lies.
@ユジン Yes, it was paradise on earth then....... and Lourenço Marques unforgettable, on equal with Nice or Cannes....
Flew with TAP recently, for me its a very good airline!
African series were excellent, especially Nigerian Air Peace review's.
I like your content Josh there are very pure.
Keep it up!
Love from Tanzania 🇹🇿
Love your video
Love it Josh. Come back down under again. Love to see your reaction to our diff airlines and products.
Hi Josh, loved the Africa series. It'd be great to see review of some central European carriers e.g. LOT, CSA, Tarom, Air Croatia, etc.
One single window open on a plane during day time will ruin the sleep of everyone else on the plane. I want to arrive sharp and rested, so thank you crews for making sure everyone shuts those blinds
The "window shades battle" is ridiculous on a day flight. I hate shutting out that light. If people want to sleep, they have eye shades. (The naughty bit of me wonders whether people sleeping in the dark means the crew aren't disturbed.)
My money's on Noel Philips for the team-up!
Hi Josh love all your videos, I'm from Australia and love going to the USA a few years ago my mum and I going to the USA and then leaving the USA managed to get a row of 3 to our selves as we only sit on the back row. Thank you United airlines! As it's a 13hrs flight and serve 2 meals and snacks United airlines are great. I slept better coming back from USA as it was night time and the row to myself made a comfy economy bed slept 7hrs straight I don't even do that at home. So I like night flight better.
Please please do a video either to Australia or USA
My mum and i love Vegas but not drinkers or gamblers
Thank you 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
well done!!
Hey josh Cahill great video, could you do a Australia trip one day please be amazing
Agree im from Australia this is a great country
You should go to the Azores on Azores airlines during the spring/summer. Lovely islands & you can even take a small propeller plane to other islands too on Sata.
Great series Josh! Are you flying the new TAAG route between Luanda and Madrid? Would be an interesting one to review!
A very interesting series, it does look like on average there is some crew training work.
Loved learning about Africa! Very interesting series. I hope you don’t get in trouble for talking about the corruption within the officials of the government in your final stop.
It would be awesome if you could a similar tour in South America, its very rare to find them in CZcams.........................
Hello Josh, thanks for all your work!! You have to come to Azores and fly SATA!! Loved your African adventure.
Good Series Josh!!! My preference depends on the airline & location for day travel / night travel...
Loved the African series and I always appreciate ur honesty. Where to next?
As you asked what some would like to see, I would really like if you could review the Air France a350, but if possible not on the shorter flights as many trip reports are on… Maybe on the South American flights or the Seattle routes… Loved the Africa tour!
Hi Josh,
Just wondering if you could do a long haul MIAT Mongolian flight?
Maybe Frankfurt to Ulaanbaatar?
Cheers
It almost happened on my current trip, however I have it on my to do list! Thanks :)
