Norwegian is actually really good for being low cost
FsAviX ikr because my passport ran out but with Norwegian I managed to get a flight in the next 5 hrs
FsAviX I
dude when I went on easy jet my ticket was 8 dollars (around 6 or 5 pounds)
HoboGotCash as a norwegian, I would like to have a explaination on that. If it’s because of us often being awkwardly shy, i guess i agree.
Fuck off just believe that youre more weird im from Norway
Having flown on both EasyJet and Ryanair, I'd have to say EasyJet is a much better airline. The seats were more comfortable and the flights were more reliably on-time. The planes are cleaner and the crew are nicer as well. It's worth the small increase in cost.
Ryanair was best for me. I have never been on EasyJet.
For me the Ryanair cabin crew was 5/5.
Ryan air is good with price, it’s like an airbus, literally.
1 - Norwegian
2 - EasyJet/WizzAir
3 -WOW Air
4 - RyanAir

Hadn't at time of original comment
No it’s back
@@charlescalvin6045 bruh its not back
@@charlescalvin6045 its now called "Play Air"
I was on Easyjet the other week. Had no problems with them. Really good for a low budget in my opinion and will defo fly with them again.
5SecondsofDougie my family always fly with easyjet. i’ve been twice with them and they were amazing, my younger brother got to see the cockpit which was nice so easyjet is one i’ll always fly with.
EasyJet are amazing 🤩
Easyjet is amazing
Wheres my norwegian gang?🇳🇴
mhm do you mean the plane or people from norway? And mee!!!

IM norwegian american and im goign to norway after the pandemic ends
When I’m the only Swede :(
British Airways 747 hej
Maybe you just had an unlucky flight with EasyJet, every time I've flew with them they seemed super friendly. Personally the difference between RyanAir and EasyJet is massive from my experience.
That's the trouble, these airlines are massive! I been flying regularly with Ryanair, Wizzair and Easyjet for years now and from what I noticed is that I had miserable staff on all of these airlines on at least one occasion, but it's not a regular occurrence, they might be under pressure sometimes. From my travel experience, the best staff, I had were always on Wizz air, they would always smile and everything, the worst I had was on EasyJet, the stewardess that was serving me was so miserable that she didn't even smile when I told her a joke, instead she told me of in a bad way. But it does depend on the person too
Never been on easy jet
SavageLv100 easyJet*
Same the only difference is that not I flew with Ryanair but my cousins together with their parents flew with Ryanair as they flew with Ryanair before. So all of my easy jet flys were great while the one of my family members was miserable. Even their luggage got completely destroyed xD.
puttington I find it easyjet better than BA now!
1. Norwegian
2. Easy Jet
3. Ryan air
Alpha Ryanair is the safest airline in the world though?
@@joshuajackson4742 no it's not
@@joshuajackson4742 For 2019, Qantas is singled out as the best, while the remaining 19 safest airlines haven't been ordered and are instead listed alphabetically.
The result is a list that includes what the website calls a "who's who of airlines," praised for being reliable and secure.
The top 20 are: Air New Zealand, Alaska Airlines, All Nippon Airways, American Airlines, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airways, Emirates, EVA Air, Finnair, Hawaiian Airlines, KLM, Lufthansa, Qantas, Qatar Airways, Scandinavian Airline System, Singapore Airlines, Swiss, and United Airlines and Virgin group of airlines (Atlantic and Australia).
Ryan air, has the WORST landings.
@@joshuajackson4742 it may not be the safest on the whole world, but of how many ryanair incidents have you heard?
I feel Norwegian shouldn't of been in this economy week, it obviously has better service but is noticeably more expensive than the other two. For a Europe low cost economy week, Wizz
air probably would of been a better fit. Regardless, good in-depth comparison but I will carry on using the airline cheapest airfare and avoid the extra's.
The3Sees should've been easyJet, Ryanair and Jet2
Norwegian is cheap, but some flights can be more expendive
No
Norwegian is cheap, but not 10 euro ticket cheap.
Norwiegen also has the best livery.
ethmister6666 I actually prefer Norwegian to all of them but i think the livery is hideous
The new easyjet livery is nice though
Rgt
I,d like their tailfin,s too. A very good idea.
Don't hate but I like Ryanair' liverly.
4:45 it's actually very, very true. I remember flying Norwegian I think it was 5 years ago, and they had internet!
Norweigian is better
They're also not profitable and about to go out of business
@@carynoname2574 That is not confirmed yet. I think they can survive. But etihad airways is in some serious debt and the carrier is probably going to die in a few years (sadly).

These Reviews are absolutely amazing ❤️
Such a hard work 💪💪
Keep going like this
The new Norwegian 787 Dreamliner is a fantastic plane! It comes with more comfortable seats and more leg room, better lighting, windows that don’t have window shades, but instead have a cool dimming effect instead, and as if that wasn’t enough, they also come with tablets and a charging station with every single seat! I’ve recently tried one from Spain to Norway, and I loved it haha
Love your economy week videos.
Totally agree!
Same from me!
Same!
Me five! Keep up with your amazing work! :D
@Dantorp Aviation, All your economy weeks are so damn good- love the quality and effort you put into it! Keep up the good work! Can't wait for all the future Economy weeks. :D Best CZcamsr on Earth!
Excellent video. What I love about you is that you are so thorough.
Brilliant sum-up and overall a great series! I myself love Easyjet. This has earned you another subscriber XD
Good video...but sadly Norwegian don't have great routes out of the UK...i've flown both easyjet & ryanair and had no issues so far!
Same here just I've never been on easyJet but my friends have so they say the same
Great review i like small print issues pointed out in the end.
Hope you had fun filming this!! ✈️
It was as fun as flying low-cost can get ;)
Great economy week! Great job Dan 👍👌✈️
@Dantorp totally agree with @CanadianJewel. Premium economy comparison reviews would be an great addition to the already outstanding content. With Premium Economy becoming increasingly popular amonst passengers, I'm sure travelers would appreciate your professional advice on which PE products are the best!
Wow as a cabin crew for Ryanair it's embarrassing watching this video 😅
To be fair it's still better then a number of airlines out there! As a frequent passenger I tend to prefer travelling with either Ryanair or Wizz air, due to the fact that they fly to local airports (No transfers). When boarding one of these two airlines the cabin is always nice and clean (I love the new Sky interior). On the other hand, when I fly airlines like Easyjet and some of the posh airlines most of the time you can tell that the aircraft is old and the seats are worn out.
oisin rooney do you get hit by a truck every time the plane lands
Filip Golonka You must have been playing way to much flight simulator X on steam , I recommend you go back to reality.
oisin rooney well it is a low cost airline, you get what you pay for. There's a reason it's the cheapest airline in Europe.
Price and extra costs one considers in advance, but the crew on Ryanair have always made a nice and professional impression to remember after the flight.
Thank you for these precious information :)
Economy Week has been very interesting for me, as I am (weep! weep!) and economy traveler! I hope you will be able to do a Premium Economy comparison week at some point. Thank you for the video!
Very nice video mate!!!
So many memories on east jet anticipating the holiday playing cards on the plane. I want that for my kids.
Thank you as always for this comparison. I flew RyanAir 1st time end Nov-Dec. 4 flights return, to 2 destinations in 7 days. I have to say my experience of RyanAir has trumped EasyJet (long time flyer with Easyjet). Yes it is more chaotic, yet half the time you pay priority boarding with Easyjet and like Ryanair it simply is not enforced. Though with Ryanair you get a great carry on luggage alowance., and if you pay priority boarding your larger carry-on is guaranteed on the plane. Makes de-boarding, customs and airport exit at least 15 mins quicker.
I really liked this video! One thing I will say though is that i've had to make name corrections in the past with ryanair and wasn't charged for it.
I am flying on Friday with easyjet. Thanks for this man! I have a bad fear of flying but crazy thing is, I'm a boxer. Don't fear much but this actually helped me, knowing that you're happy with easyjet.
Great video! Very Interesting Looking forward to more! :)
Can’t wait for the next one!! :-)
norwegian airlines is the best
@@ralzvy KLM has extremely old planes. Feel way safer on Norwegian
Gud
@@ralzvy, You mean the sandwich plane? Where u only get sandwiches?
Mar Da Demigod I flew on KLM and yes it a sandwich plane lol
@@markuax5046 lol
Excellent!! Thanks Dan!!
Great video overview! By chance have you done a video overview on AirBnB in Europe? Also, what is the brand of the bag you showed at the end of the video? Thanks!
Can you do a comparison for the European (BA vs Lufthansa vs Air France vs KLM) and American legacy carriers?
Like your economyclass week. This year I Am gonna fly a lot. I learned a lot. Thanks Daniel. Greets Dion.
Great video! One suggestion though would be to compare the actual price of the ticket! It feels like that is probably one of the most important cost categories to call out!
I have travelled all over Europe with ryanair and can’t thank them enough for forcing prices down across the sector. The seats are not great and as I am wheat free I can barely eat anything but I’m happy to endure this for the possibility of being able to travel at a cost that I can afford. Norwegian are a lovely airline to travel with but their prices are starting to creep up, I really hope we don’t see them disappear sometime soon.
Excellent review very useful! All thumbs up no thumbs down impressive!👍👍👍👌👏😎
Five econo flights in one day is just kooky. Great vid!
Bit of a fun fact for any sports car enthusiasts out there.
The new seats in the EasyJet’s are made by Recaro who also make the seats for sports cars.
Found this out last time i was on an EasyJet flight as it had the Recaro logo on the latch that holds the tray table up.
Good to know!
Norwegian and Porsche use the same seat manufacturer:)
Nice video, but just have to add one thing, Ryanair almost always goes to airports that are far from the city, but Easy Jet is flying to many main airports.
Norwegian mostly only flies to main airports too.. I sincerely think however that with Ryanair you still actually get what you are paying for.
That may be true but I have landed in main airports and yes you did say almost always
Excellent video Dan! Seat comfort is the most important to me, but I just wonder if Norwegian flies to as many European cities as Ryanair or Easy Jet?
Jet2 is my favourite low cost airline, may not be as big but living in the north of the UK I find it is the friendliest and easiest.
drlampost lol what other airlines have you flown to say this is ur favorite airline
Flew all the major low cost ones in the UK, ryanair, easyjet, monarch, wizz, norwegian
They used to be great about 5 years ago, unfortunately they have become worse than Ryanair in terms of hidden charges and extra fees.
drlampost same
I like Jet2 i consider them to be YorkshireAirways. I've always liked the metallic silver paint on the livery.
Point of airline lingo: a "base" is a domicile with offices and managers for flight and cabin crews. A "destination" is a city that the airline serves. You refer to each airline's bases when the you should be calling them destinations or cities served. I completely agree with your assessment of the "winner." You're totally right that the fees on top of fees and more fees is annoying to say the least. Thanks for your comprehensive overview of these European LCCs.
Great review. Is comparing Eurowings, Vueling and WIZZ Air an option?
Enno Riemersma no
I was also thinking those three would be interesting to see as well
Good idea
I’ve been on Vueling Airlines before, their landings are good, service is average and seating is alright.
@@FLAMEalan Landings are so irrelevant that they arent a point of comparison in my opinion
I was able to get minor name changes on Ryanair for free by chatting with their customer support, I think the fee only applies to a complete name change.
Which app is best to find cheap tickets please let me know
Economy week for the win. Great video.
I went with Ryanair once and will never again. I went out of the plane with extreme knee pain, unable to walk without assistance for the next hour.
My back pain stayed for a week.
Can’t say that about Norwegian.
But I would choose EasyJet over Ryanair because I still would like to walk after flying.
SAS Plus, short/medium haul review please. Keep it up man.
If you compare them on the London-Copenhagen route you should also include comparing transfer costs/times to the certain airports from Central London as all three airlines fly to and from different airports.
Slight problem with the comparison.
Having been on Easyjet from Bristol to Madrid I noticed even know I was on the same plane model A319 the seats were completely different.
On the way out the seats were wide with good legroom (and I'm 6'3") but on the return flight the seats were cramped with minimal legroom and the thermostat seemed to be faulty.
I assume most other airlines would be like this aswell.
I really want you to do a Jetblue vs BA (British Airways) review on both business (mint on Jetblue) and economy on the New York to London route.
Hey Dan, Love your videos. Any plans to take some layovers and give us a look around some of the airports you go through? Also, would love to see you head into or out of Chicago O'Hare.. planning a trip to Oslo Norway in the next year and a half or so, and am ready to go waste money with a travel agent because it's the very devil trying to plan because Chicago does not go direct toOslo or vice versa.
The problem with Europe is their is too many low-cost airlines to compare! Ryanair, easyJet, Vueling, Norwegian, Jet2, WizzAir, Transavia, Flybe, Iberia Express, TUIfly, airBaltic, WOW Air and Eurowings. Though I've probably missed some.
Air Serbia, Croatia airlines, Aegean, Brussels airlines, Thomson, Arkefly, Czechia airlines, Bulgaria airlines
They're not low-cost airlines
KianWorld Arkefly is a low cost
And it depends on country which you should compare. Here in Ukraine Wizzair is the biggest and Ryanair has just entered (actually not yet, they will fly from September), also Italian Ernest airlines for Italy solely, Aegean for Greece. And for far destinations and most Western Europe it’s quite reasonable to have a change in Poland or Germany, as Wizzair flies only to Germany and UK considering west from Ukraine.
Idk about WOW Air
Our flight from NYC to Amsterdam didn't arrived and didn't left in Amsterdam and we never knew they didn't told us not even an email or call
Daniel, nice review as always. Loved your bag; is it possible to buy it online? Safe flights.
Thanks Paulo! The link is in the description :)
One question: When you stream movies from the norwegian thing, do u stream from wifi or from a onboard computer?
I'm going on a Norwegian 787 and so far the way here on it aas AMAZING
Can u do a Fiji airways business class review? I’m flying it this summer and I wanna realllly know what it’s like and you’re realllly good at reviewing 😄
Good to know, keep up the good work.
That's very helpful!!
Great Video I flew all of them and found what you said was the same the Seats and legroom are so bad on Ryanair and i love that Norwegian shorthaul give wifi and entertainment that was great when i flew them and Easyjet is cheap and provides a good serivce. But Norwegian has got shorthauls sorted good entertainment and great seats also very quick turnaround. Great Video Again. What do you think of British Airways Shorthaul??
Do they have hand luggage size & weight restrictions in Europe? In Australia the hand luggage (carry on) bag can only weigh a max of 7 kg & be a certain size
Can you do an economy week with leisure airlines like TUI , Thomas Cook, and jet2
Happy to learn about Norwegian. I looked them up and they have a Chicago to London flight starting at $360.
What with Wizzair?
Really nice and informative! But it would have been nice if you would have included carriers like Wizzair, Eurowings or Vueling but that's Potential for another Economy Week! :D
I went on a Ryanair flight on holiday not long ago and the seat I was in had a seat pocket etc.
Hi there, what do you think about the new carry-on policy of Ryanair?
Norwegian was great when I flew with them. I enjoyed their services. Great for a low cost
Not really a fair test
Ryanair, low cost budget airline who operates the 737-800 and 737MAX
Easyjet, airline that only flies short haul in Europe and operates the a320, a319 and a320NEO
Norwegian, low cost airline that flies all over the world, they use the 737-800, 737MAX AND 787-9
Ryanair dosent have 737MAX yet
The only CZcamsr who does this! Please compare turkish airlines vs Swiss vs lufthansa
I personally would say Norwegian because the have long haul fights as well
shutup I said that because it is convenient for me to go from here in New York to Europe on a low cost carrier
I flew on Norwegian once and it was good
Please tell me if I have Canadian pr can i land in Chicago, USA and take a train from there to Port Huron, Michigan and take a taxi to enter Sarina, Canada. Can i do the process of Canadian immigration at Chicago Airport and get a transit visa to go to Canada through USA by train.
Guys I had a flight with easyjet from Lisbon to London,Luton the staff was friendly the boarding and check in was fast and also the seats were comfortable
im interested to know about the quality of service by the cabin crew of each airline
HA HA! The man in the blue jacket picking up his case at 6:58 is my uncle Tom! LOL! 😅
On the news, i always get stories saying 'pilot shortage on Ryanair flights lead to dozens of flights being cancelled.' Once, at the airport, on the departure board, I noticed that all of the Ryanair flights had been delayed or cancelled . And even if there are no issues, they are usually always late and never arive on time.
Please do a review of Spirit Airlines here in the US!
That would be a good video right there
I went on easy jet a couple of month ago and it was so good I will always go with easy jet
Only flown easyJet from LTN to KEF and back, it was on an A319-100. Seats were fairly good but service was mediocre - the crew kept forgetting about things people had ordered
You should do economy week on the mexican airlines such as interjet, volaris, and vivaaerobus
Detta är väldigt hjälpsamt verkligen och intressant. Är rätt så ny på din kanal, men känns som du inte reser så mycket med KLM så det vill jag jättegärna ha en recension på det.
I decided to subscribe so any moment now you should be notified that you have a new subscriber. :D
Maybe you should also have looked at the weight allowance for hand luggage, by Ryanair it is limited to 10kgs. by Easyjet no limit as long as you can stow the luggage without assistance.
Can you compare the European Charter airlines like TUI, JET2.com, and Thomas cook. Many people look for a cheap option to get to there many European tourism destinations and wondering which would be the best option
Can you try and do a review on the big gulf carriers smaller and non flagship aircraft
you missed on another Major low cost wizzair !!! Would be nice to compare that one as well
Nice, thanks for the compareson of the airlines
My pleasure!
I flew with Ryanair this
morning and it was a mixed experience, flown with them multiple times yet this was surprising. Firstly the new cabin had thinner, more comfy seats with more leg room, felt like a new plane. But they’ve installed this ridiculous policy where suitcases, which you are normally allowed to take on the cabin, now go in the hold (unless you want to pay £10!) which means more hassle once you land gathering baggage. Also we fly as a family and when Ryanair randomly allocate seats, we’re all over the place and have to pay to get one of us closer. Quite frankly you get what you pay for but they’re just trying to squeeze every penny once you reach the airport, which is how they make money. Can’t fault them for that really
We fly to Spain from the UK every few weeks and to be honest, we’ve never had any MAJOR issues with any of them in the past 2 years, usually once you’re in your seat it’s sorta hassle free
amypom123 - I believe they could be way less scrupulous in doing so.
May be your suitcase is a little bit larger than their allowed suitcase? Or was it a tiny suitcase, and they took on hold each and every suitcase?
If I understand correct 'putting on hold' means that they took your suitcase in a regular luggage compartment - if they did not charge you for doing that didn't it make your flight more comfortable?
Thank you
hyperborean72 The suitcases were the correct size - it is the size appropriate to go in the overhead lockers. They took those types of bags off of everyone - unless you paid £5 - and put them in the hold under the plane. This added hassle to us because we had to wait for an hour for our bags when we didn’t plan to, most people who travel short, cheap flights want to take there baggage on the plane in small bags, so they can leave the airport quickly - with the new policy we can’t. Sorry if it was unclear
I'll explain why Ryanair changed the bag policy. Before January 2018, you could take 2 bags with you: a cabin bag and a personal bag such as handbag, backpack, etc. While the cabin bag had to go to the compartment, the personal bag HAD to be stowed under the seat. However, the passengers weren't doing this. They would stow everything inside the compartment, taking all the space for big bags and while still in the middle of the boarding there was no more space and if you asked them to remove a small bag or a jacket they would become aggressive. Also, they were bringing more bags that they were allowed (I once had a passenger with 4 bags and a family of 3 that filled a whole compartment) and if the cabin crew said something, they would start a commotion. Flights were getting delayed, slots lost and reports were being filled everyday just because people can't respect the rules of the airline.
Before January 2018, there were days were I had to tag up to 60 bags and being hours delayed because we lost our slot thanks to people not respecting something so easy as the old bag policy. I know it's a pain in the ass, when I fly I also want my bag with me, but that was the reason they had to change policies.
Hi :)
Love all of your videos.
How often do you fly?
Somewhere every 2 hours I’m his travel agent me
Plz do some class shuttle week! Such as Pegasus,Emirates,Cathy Pacific,Or British Airways!
I make quite a few short journeys (1hr) to Edinburgh every couple of months and always go with Easyjet. They are reasonably cheap and I have even messed up booking the wrong dates and putting myself as a Miss instead of Mr in the same booking. They changed the dates and title for free within the 24 hrs and even waived the fare difference which was £10.
I think the change of dates and fare difference may of been discretionary but most people have got it done even if it is not their formal policy to do so.
My brother bought a normal seat on a 787 dreamliner but it was over bocked so he got an economi seat insted.
2 hours flying with Ryanair its olay but longer then 4 hours is really terrible 😅
