- How has Air Travel changed post COVID-19? This video examines every single air travel element from airfares, at airports to cabin layouts and in-flight service, things may look very different once we start traveling again.
Shall we expect higher or lower airfare? Shall we expect longer than normal process at the airport? What will happen with social distancing onboard an airplane? Will there be the same in-flight food and beverage offerings like before? What will the arrival formalities be like after landing?
This video shares the latest aviation industry developments, such as new seating innovations and contactless travel with minimum touch points as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.

I find it incredible that a "CZcamsr" has all this information....however those of us who work in the industry don't even know what is going to happen
A Darbs If you are in “the” business you know...or should. Multiple sources for this information from leading industry organizations depending on your country. If in the US here is a list of organizations that have been releasing information weekly/daily:
1. ACI
2. AAAE
3. ICAO
Also, most leading industry consultants have released a plethora of white papers, suggested protocols, facility design and operational modifications recommendations.
@@ApriliaRacer14 I am...and have been for the last 32 years. My company (European) have told us nothing. We do not know when we will return to work, we do not know how check-in/boarding is going to work, and apparently the airport I work at have done nothing whatsoever in terms of any safety measures i.e. plastic shield screens etc
A Darbs If you like I can email you all I have. Email address?
@@ApriliaRacer14 you're grand thanks, I'll wait for my company to provide the information. Thanks anyway.
You see one video and just believe it!!! They said the same thing after 911! Get a grip?
9/11 terrorists: "We going to shake up the travel industry forever."
Covid-19: "Oh ya, hold my Corona."
hahaha
OMG I am stealing your quotations LOL
You mean hold my corona beer*
Pretty much lol 😆
LOL! I'm scared of coughing at school because of Corona!! Watch this for a good laugh: czcams.com/video/IneDPFbUq1c/video.html
"I'm not hungry anymore" 😂
LOL Me too. This is not fun
They say all this will happen but it will never actually happen.
The same things were said after 911... Nobody would ever fly again?
This is probably how it’ll be immediately after. After a few years it’ll be mostly back to normal
@@vincentconti3633 So, you think things are going to go back to normal?
Crazed and depressed manic laughter!
Sorry vincent. The old world you knew, is gone. Buckle up. This might be a few more years than the weeks you thought it might take.
And we're not going back. The 20th century world that bled up to 2019? That's NEVER coming back.

I want to believe that we will go back to life as it used to be.

0:25 imagine sitting in the reverse seat during takeoff and landing
Kwangmyongsong 4 but the idea of personal compartment in economy, i love it
As somebody who has sat in rear facing seats I can tell you take off is a little weird, landing is nothing, but the big thing is eye contact. Every time you glance up dozens of people are staring at you it's crazy.
That is currently used on the BA Club Class and it is no big deal.
Imagine you are flying with your wife and kid...
Most of the military aircraft I flew in in service flew sitting backwards whenever they had the comfort pallets loaded with airline type seats. You got used to it.
We can’t just accept this pandemic is here to stay for years to come. Things will get better sooner or later.

Yes!!!! We are not stupid I ll not pay for it
Social distancing in Singapore is 1 meter ( 3 ft), in Germany it is 4 ft, and in US , it is 6 ft.
Does the Coronavirus treat (infect) people from different countries and of different nationalities differently?
@@kkartha In Germany they use the metric system so you're saying it's 1.2m? That's funny.
even before COVID-19 I have always thought boarding from the back to the front was the best idea to keep the flow going and to reduce line congestion. I also think flight attendants should announce which rows the emergency exit over the wing is so people with visual impairments or if there is so much smoke, passengers can count their way to the exit window from their row.
We can’t social distance forever. I believe air travel will be weird and not exactly super enjoyable for about 1 year, and then as more people want to travel air travel will become normal, and no blocked middle seat, no prepackaged meals. I predict the first completely normal travel season will be Christmas 2021
exactly
Hahaha...no way! Half companies will fall, prices will go triple ...
@@henryrollins9177 yes, but just until the pandemic will be completly ended
@@airplanewhat5316 But that time, much more people will be in poverty or at least fallen from their previous living standard...who will have money to pay for vacations?
@@henryrollins9177 in fact it will take time. Sam talked about sanitary precautions that he says will change our way of flying forever, while also this emergency is gonna stop, before or after. Probably in a year and a half the emergency will be finished but then we'll take some other years to recover financially. But as I've already said, it will end before or after.
Also remember a 14 day quarantine period when you reach your destination
That’s not needed if everybody is vaccinated
@@slapshot68 even if a vaccine was discovered tomorrow it will be several years before it can be manufactured and distributed to enough of the world's population to be effective. We are talking years, not months.
We also have to remember that if certain countries come up with a vaccine, they will be sucking every penny of profit from it, and many countries may not be able to afford it.
LOL! I'm scared of coughing at school because of Corona!! Watch this for a good laugh: czcams.com/video/IneDPFbUq1c/video.html
There are some cities were you don’t need to stay in quarantine. They check your temperature and ask you questions on a paper. It’s like here in LA. That’s why you should take the corona test and print out your results and keep them on you when you travel.
@@mallek5871 and the figures over there in the USA are getting worse and worse. Lockdown is being relaxed here in the UK, and many people are getting very nervous.
Iam not hungry anymore 😂! Epic

Yes. In a few years people will be looking back at this and laughing at the idiocy of this virus hysteria. People are acting right now as if COVID-19 is the first pandemic in the history of the world.

It is the first full swing pandemic in modern age.
@@Canleaf08 Haha I am sorry for you for believing in this lie. Wonder if you ever take the time to listen to doctors and scientists that are not allowed to speak on TV.

but seriously i hope none of this happens after this covid-19 ends
hope this is all temporary.
Only if their is a vaccine. If their isn't a vaccine airlines will have to do this
Tony Zan this will be a manipulation to make more get the vaccine. Those at the top will make huge money
I doubt they'll make it temporary. We need to fight back.
@@jschrager23
If there is no vaccine the world basically has to be like this forever
@@danielpavlick5006
Private corporations hate covid-19 more than anything. with very few exceptions most of them are losing huge amounts of money. The airline industry wants to return to normal as soon as possible. The problem is there are too many people that are scared of covid-19. It will be years before they get the same passenger volumes they got in 2019
I personally think, air travel will eventually return to a more affluent way of travel because of pressures on airlines to cooperate with restrictions and public apprehension to fly. Other forms of transport with less restrictions and easier to adapt will succeed as a new popular form of travel.
i miss flying before 9/11... when you were treated as a respected passenger onboard.
now you're just a living freight checked and double-checked.
Agreed, I am so happy I am old enough to have experienced flying when it was amazing back in the day.
@@venom5809 how different was it? I was only 5 when it happened
Afy Mehmood You could walk into the airport and watch planes takeoff and sit with friends or family before they flew out like walking into a grocery store, you could walk all over the plane, stand and talk with people, even go into the cockpit and talk to the pilots, you used to get real food in trays with real silverware. Drugs and 9/11 really destroyed the whole flying experience.
I also miss the quick security checks, steel cuttlery, bringing my swiss army knife onboard, visiting the cockpit (as a child) and flying in 747s. Good days forever gone.
@@venom5809 You nailed it! Sure miss those days. Maybe we can experience it again in our after-life. Ha! Stay safe!
Sam please. As the biggest aviation blogger and fan do your best to try to bring us back in air travel as it was before covit19. You have the biggest influence out of us. Its terrible what's happening now to the airlines.
February 2020: passport, phone - “I think Im ready to board”

@@Qatari2007 Most people have their boarding passes on their phones. If u don't have it classic paper boarding pass will do 👍🏻
With the new 15-minute antibody tests, can you imagine before every flight you get tested?
Flying post COVID-19 certainly will be different especially as me being a frequent flier. My employment takes me to Europe on business class and if boxed meals served instead choosing my meals are served, then that’s they way it is. I will miss the larger planes and they are more comfortable than the smaller ones. Thanks Sam and as you, looking forward to being in the air again!
I feel like my soul was sucked out of me! International travel is my personal hobby and past time now I can not even do that comfortably! Sigh!!!

Hope this shall pass very soon and we do not have to go though this crazy process. Flights are supposed to be for fast transportation, this sounds like going back in time :(

I don’t like backwards seats neither. I don’t think this is right. By August everything will be like normal! There has been many viruses and they all got through normal

oh great, might as well show up 7 hours prior to your flight
Suddenly, a road trip holiday using my car is looking very very attractive.
you might as well take the overland route
After COVID-19 there's going to be less flying for several reasons.
1) Less passengers for physical distancing will require higher ticket prices
2) Less airline due to several airlines going out of business will lead to higher prices due to less competition
Amen
✈️🌍 For people saying do we need to travel anyway?
For some people yes, it is part of their job/career to work in different countries like athletes, international aid workers, international doctors, marine biologists etc...
For other people travel is important to them because we don't live on a country, we live on a huge planet with different cultures, landscapes, sites to see and experience. Travel enriches peoples lives.
Im happy that there wont be cheap flying for long long years... I have to flight to work anyway, but the company pays for tickets.
Stupid middleclassers wont fly for a good 5 years al least.
Absoloutly correct
I ll travel with car
I honestly think everything will go back to normal soon. I flew to Miami twice on quarantine and we still could buy drinks and no flight attendants were wearing any masks. With spirit
Jimmy Pappas when abouts did you fly to Miami and having flight attendants not wearing a mask just asking out of curiosity.
@@maplemiles3381 it was around end of April
It sounds like a horror movie :(
What a travesty.
It is a horror 😰 movie
I know, Canb! In other words, would truly appreciate if you could check out my Boston to Rome trip report from normal travel times lol, truly believe you will enjoy as travel is currently so scarce as seen in this video due to COVID-19. Wish you all the best, fellow avgeek!
How does it sound like a horror movie?
I’d rather not travel 😤😤
I heard from a medium, that when you die and leave your body flying to the light, you need to keep at least 6 feet distance from other flying souls.
What wasn't covered was while in flight what about using the washrooms, shuffling past your seat mate to get to the aisle, carry-on luggage - other people touching it to get to theirs. Airline travel pre-pandemic was already an ordeal - long security lines, delays, etc. Post pandemic will be more onerous on the traveller. Airlines will have to work very hard on the customer experience.
Excellent point. Social distancing for the aircraft lavatory on a narrowbody aircraft alone would block the aisle for practically the length of the plane! This is unsustainable.
""I am not hungry any more" that was hilarious.
Thanks for sharing such interesting info.
I really want to go fly on a 747 and A380 before they are all retired!
These airlines still fly 747 Korean air , air China, thai airways, China airlines , British airways, air India and Lufthansa these are the airlines still operate the 747 that I know
Me too
Sebastian Arnold Saudia too
@@saudiavgeek152 oh yeah ,even Iraqi airlines and Asiana,but Asiana only operate two 747 400 from Taipei to Seoul
The sterilizing robot is pretty cool. It will take some time to really go back to normal or should I say this is just the beginning of new travel experience going forward in the future.
Sam Chui pre-pandemic : Talks about efficiency
During pandemic : Uses 747,quadjet and less efficient aircraft for it's own airlines
Air Sam Chui? Nope,I'm sure the Economy price is same like The Residence in Etihad🤣🤣
Faisal Hashim And apparently ... The 'steampunk' 747-200, no less
If that so, I’m not interested to take flight again. I more like to travel by private car

Good video! I would personally like to see discounts for family members from the same house flying together. These family members wouldn’t require the social distancing as required for non family members. For example: 4 strangers flying would need to use 2 rows with the middle seat blocked. 4 family members don’t need that extra seat blocked.
Just a thought.
Greedy airlines will try to charge extra to seat with family members 😠 I have no sympathy for airlines. They sucked passengers for too long.
Next stop, personal flying cars. Who's with me on this one?
Flying cars will never happen. Too many opportunities for terrorism. Maybe if the route was pre programmed but that could be hacked.

I think the future travel will be normal soon after when we know the carnivorous is done.Probably air travel will be Like this for a year but after That It will be normal again.
@John Volken Agree!
6:01 looks like the WestJet Plus seat configuration lol. When I flew them a year ago I never imagined this would be the new norm lol.
Flying will go up sharply in price. Will be like it was in the past-more expensive and not as busy.
Social distance inside airplane it’s a idiot idea. The air is the same for all.
Agree...
Canal do Daniel proves social distancing is not about safety !
This whole thing is designed to restructure the world's economy, and to retrain the sheep to go more willingly where they're told. This has nothing to do with keeping people safe from a nasty cold. Ever read 1984? Orwell was right

Mentour Pilot did a better video on this topic. czcams.com/video/5UJR9JFdMYI/video.html
If there is one thing the world has learned during the past few months it is that international travel is no longer necessary for many business people as online communications can do the job. 'Hobby' flying for the sake of it may well become a very anti-social activity due to the environmental issues.
You also need to remember people will take time to gain the confidence to feel any level of comfort to sit in a confined area, be it a plane, a theatre, a cinema, a restaurant.
99.99% clean and pure air possible by the robot
0.01% air = *CoronaVirus*
I am a retired airline Captain of 36 years. I will never tolerate all this intrusive behavoir. I will never give up my personnel rights to board a flight. Driving for me!! GOOD LUCK
🌍 For people saying we have to get back to normal.
NO Life cannot go back to normal, life on Earth has to get better. Less corruption, less polluting the planet, less war and fighting. More love, more kindness, more compassion, more respecting others including the elected government officials respecting us and our civil rights.
The science-fiction movie has become true now. Thanks, Sam for preparing us what is like to travel post-COVID 19.
This was a needed video. It's all going to change. Nevertheless hope I get to bump into you Sam in the future.
Interesting and well-produced video. The more restrictions and costs, the less people will fly.
Covid-19 sucks so much bruh if it wasn’t there it would be so good for us
If flying in the future is anything like you depict Sam then I won't fly unless absolute necessary. Thanks for sharing Sam.
I've flown domestically within Australia in recent weeks since the lockdowns, the only difference I've seen is the deliberate leaving of empty seats and an announcement that no more than 2 people are allowed to wait for the toilet. Oh and maybe they just give a bag of pretzels and a bottle of water now rather than a meal. Other than that, nothing outrageous
jayjays 35 masks?
@@MineshBaxiYT optional then and still only optional, I flew 2 days ago and they supplied hand sanitiser and mask in a zip lock bag but only optional
Someone calculated that to check in the passengers of a single Airbus A380 it would take a line of people waiting that is 1 mile long. So you have to queue up somewhere near the long term parking spots far outside the terminal building. And it will take many hours before the plane is fully boarded because of all the checks.
Sounds depressing, and the glomour of flying will well in truely be gone.

Sam, G'day from Sydney...... Well I have been an aviation tragic for my entire life... I am by no means an airline industry analyst , but I think I can say a few things about where the airline industry is heading post coronavirus. Firstly, the seat mile cost factors and efficiency metrics that airlines always used to buy planes from airbus and boeing - are now history.. Empty middle seats and social distancing has put an end to that. The smaller, more efficient twinjet fleet strategy that global airlines seem to have chased in the last 10 years will no longer work. The paradigm has changed forever. Another factor contributing to this has been plummeting fuel prices. Airlines like QF , SIA, always talked about developing long thin routes with twin jets to destination newtorks which would bypass the traditional hub-and spoke system that has existed for decades. The kangaroo route always relied on this travel method whether it was Sydney to London via Singapore or Dubai. Now, airlines are going to realize that they will need bigger aircraft to fly a viable quantity of passengers on any long haul sector. First and business class will start to vanish from seating layouts. Why ?? well think about it. A 787 or A350 currently seats around 220 pax in a three class configuration. If QF insists on keeping 3 classes in the cabin post coronavirus, they will lose around 100 passengers to the empty middle seat. That's Perth - London with just 120 passengers (give or take a few). Do you think QF will persist with this for long??? The only way its going to work is with an A380 or 747-8. These aircraft can still fly 4-500pax in a two class configuration. They can still spin money for QF and SIA. And don't forget the cargo on these same passenger flights. Not even the 777X will be able to carry as much cargo with passengers........ That's my two cents.
Hope everything gets back to normal as it is!!!!! :(
What’s going to be interesting is how flying will be different for charter flights for teams as well as for families.
Sam you offered the mask, and welcome drink with bare hand :)
All of this changes will creates more waste, and requires more resources....
Lajos Szabó safety first, the bottles can be recycled
Lajos Szabó most of this stuff can be recycled
@@joeboi1342 yes, most of it, but not all...
Shawn Zhang can, but they don't, when they do, that's a very small percentage
Another reason why budget travelers will be reluctant to fly internationally could be fear of getting a cold or sore throat etc just before they are due to come home. They will fear being denied boarding or doing extra tests. People on a tight budget will worry about possibly paying for extra hotel nights or missing their intended flight & being stranded.
I’m going to New Zealand (Australian and NZ government are talking about travel between the 2 countries)
FlyWithSunny Yeah we have been doing a great job down here, can wait to go and explore our brother country
Lightning Studios Yeah Australia is doing good as well everything it’s getting back to normal slowly... yeah I’m excited to visit New Zealand (Australia’s brother country)
If it’s ‘post covid 19’ then there will be no need to social distance anymore, so I believe it will be like this for a year or two, and then it will go back to normal
Hi Sam, I love your videos! They inspire me :-) I am studying Computer Science and for my final project I created a Flight Simulator, featuring QATAR Airways. Thank you for showing us the beauty of aviation! Oh, and as a side note, they might start to hand out wet masks instead of wet towels LOL
Wet masks ROFL ;-D
@@yoshida6972 Great idea :P It also saves you the wiping hassle.
Thanks for the update and insight Sam. I really hope the airlines can figure out way to still offer enhanced meal & beverage service for 1st and Business class passengers while still keeping safety top of mind.
so plastic trash is not a problem anymore??
Yeah...And where the heck is Greta?
Johannes Maier nobody ever said that
Don't mind them. President Trump is always vindicated. No more global warming.
As long as we can enjoy the beach at our final destination I am okey. Because we work a complete year for that. I Hope it would be better the nexte month :)
Travelling post covid19 will be a different experience all together. The way airports and airlines will function might change drastically.
Also eager to board A380 before it retires 😕
And "Air Sam Chui" 🤪 that was interesting
I actually like the shield idea on board a plane. But definitely long haul flights will be a challenge. Another thing that was unsettling was the amount of plastic. Just as we were getting away from using so much plastic.
I'm not flying, anyway. Flying has long ceased to be pleasurable. Covid-19 is forcing a lot of business models to change how they operate and two major changes will be more people working from home and less business travel.
Just finished watching your footage, Sam.
Things that you explained in the video COULD happen, and it really saddened me that, in the future, post pandemic , travelling would for sure be different from the past, less excitements for sure (sigh... ), so let"s PRAY together that C-19 VACCINES would be available ASAP , so this " bleak future of air travel " can be avoided !

Masks in an airplane, sanitize the tray table and seat... I have been doing this for 5 years. The world is now catching up to me.
Washing yr hands wasn t invented for covid 19,is common sense...
wait ... the refreshing towel was not meant for cleaning the table and arm rests?
It will change everything ... And we need to have more patients & alert all the time... Aviation will have new path to follow if they wants to survive in near future
Lol sad but love the humor , I won’t be flying as much if this is going to be the reality
That´s also my thought. I have many dislikes sitting in a club, bar, restaurant, theatre, beach, museum, and so on with social distance, people wearing maskes. Then, everything will remind my in hospitals, surgery, ...
MITCH REVIEWS , I'm 🤞 that Amtrak get more business,
Hi Sam! Fantastic and entertaining summary of the current predicament. Personally I love travel like your good self, I feel the world is consumed with fear right now and justifiably steps must be taken to reduce risk of infection but I hope slowly things begin to ease. This virus will not go away, we will have sporadic spikes of infection worldwide. But we need to learn to adapt around it and enjoy travel as it’s truly one of the best experiences in life 🙏😀....incidentally since I have OCD I do many of the things anyway that is being advised to do now post-COVID-19 so the transition for me is minimal!! Look forward to more videos Sam! 😀
1:50 air Sam chui hahaha , it’d be a plane of just first class
it is also the safest airline because it never takes off ;)
Sam Chui lol
The easier answer would be to just have testing centres at the airports and people who want to travel pay for the test prior to travelling..if you pass the test at the airport test centre then you board the plane.
Goodbye air travel for the masses!
I love your videos, keep up the good work and let’s hope that aviation strives again after this
Here is how many people would like to see Sam Chui and Kara and Nate collab after COVID-19

Pre-virus, US carriers required about 77% load factor to breakeven. If you reduce capacity to allow for more physical distancing, fares can only go up and stay there. Result: less overall traffic volume. In other words, flying will definitely become noticeably more expensive.
If travel becomes something out of "1984" why bother?
Honestly getting rid of the middle seat is pointless, they should just keep a quota for number of seats throughout the entire flight among all classes. That way in one entire row of the plane there can only be 3 people
I'm glad I was lucky to enjoy all the joys of Travel, after Covid 19 ppffff.
This onboard isolation screens on there own wouldn't do jack to protect anyone. The only way they could actually work is if they use a surgical theater air flow style where the air comes from individual ducts on top into each sits and is vented from below, thus no recirculation.
Maybe some of these ideas will be implemented in the West, for a short time, but they're unlikely to be adopted in Asia. How are the Chinese flying, now most of their restrictions have been lifted?
Sam the Italian seats won’t pass FAA rules for 16g testing which could seriously hurt in a 16g dynamic test. The British design might have a chance. Also the flammability testing for the plastic dividers, would be a problem with the size of the dividers, also the fabrics and surfaces in the cabin interior have never been flammability tested after being wiped down with an alcohol based hand sanitiser. What might work in a building on the ground won’t necessarily pass the FAR rules for Cabin Interiors. From a retired A/C interior designer
Things have gotten way out of hand.
The post-COVID-19 era would be the worst nightmare for both the airlines and the passengers as well. A lot of old airline traditions would be replaced with new ones.
It will be like this during the ongoing COVID-19/Coronavirus pandemic but I guess most will go back to normal post COVID-19 as soon as we have found a vaccine.
You are right
You are clueless.
You are ignorant
When you have a vaccine for what? You think a vaccine is going to save you. You need to read, research and think for yourself.
Sam while in Toronto visit Threshold Aviation and Pilot 737 Simulator . The Fuselage came from a real American Airlines 737 . It's closed at the moment do to Covid -19 but will soon be open . Take Care .
meal box in the first class!
And Economy class has more space for every passenger! 😂😂😂 covid-19 turns everything up!
With the social distancing on board the A380 can make a comeback due to its huge capacity and the fact that on many routes it flew at 60% capacity. Perhaps it is a wishfull thinking but I am looking forward to that cos I love this magnificent and ultracomfortable aircraft!
Great video Sam, u answered alot of my questions particularly the cost of tickets post Covid19...I know that u have no idea about the cost or safety issues, but initially I had planned to visit friends and family in Lagos Nigeria for Christmas this year(2020). Using your expertise, do u think that I will get a SUPER low cost ticket and will international flights(long haul in economy) be safe?
Sam, Flying was never “fun”for some of us. Waiting in long lines to get to the boarding area, jammed into small narrow seats without leg room, and feeling claustrophobic. Most people are grumpy and anxious when they finally get aboard. We would love to be able to afford first or business class, but not many cannot financially afford that luxury and now flying will be even more expensive.
As always, thank you for your videos. We’ve always enjoyed flying with you and seeing the different air carriers.
Biggest fan Sam,really love your content and vlogging is the best part of your videos.keep up the good efforts and upload more videos and waiting for trip reports. Iam also crazy #avgeek like you✈️✈️
