I was on Ethiopian from Lusaka to Manchester via Addis five months ago .I still remember the best coffee I've ever taken hot without sugar.
i love how you added the xhosa caption at the end.
i am glad ethiopia is positioning itself strategically as the transportation hub of the continent making solid use of its geographical location, they have become immensely successful in a matter of year and i hope they continue to develop.
I remember watching an Ethiopian Airlines A350 Documentary on their A350
Ethiopian is for sure the king of African airline!! in 2024 they will receive another new two a350-900 and four a350-1000 a total of 6 a350 series and 21 737 max 10 aircrafts that will make their aircraft to grow to 160+.
Great flight. One of many airlines who maximizing Sixth freedom of flight.
Ngl one of the things I like is how upbeat the cabin music is. A lot of cabin music is fine. Like ethics has a more somber feeling but I like the happy Ethiopian one more
Awesome job Felix! The a350 is one of my favorite planes.
Ethiopian is the largest airline in Africa. It has a huge range of destinations, including Europe.
I remember seeing one of their planes land in Soekarno Hatta International. It was a pretty odd yet cool sight to see.
Even to Shanghai
And America !
Sure.
Toronto!
Much awaited trip report about Ethiopian Airlines. Keep It up Simply Aviation Team .Love from Mumbai, India💙💙💙
*Felix*
@@bahaviation2070 yeah sorry typing mistake I'm used to type David but I appreciate all 3 of them
Smooth landing as usual. Nice flight review.
What A Beautiful Aircraft The A350 Love It.Great Trip Report
I usually see these planes flying over my rural home in Nyahururu, Kenya
always great to watch your vlogs in Simply Aviation Felix.... keep it going
Good job and thank you
I just saw a CZcams short yesterday saying Ethiopia is growing with skyscrapers amd a five star airline and I saw this
Very nice report! Thx
I want to get aboard an Ethiopian aircraft so bad!!!
In October 2023, I flew from Moscow to Dakar with a transfer in Addis Ababa. Great airport and airline)
Masterpiece as usual! Well done!
What a beautiful descent into Cape Town!
Fantastic trip report as always Felix!😸
Cape town..my city!!!🎉
Perfect Video, Great footage have a safe trip
Amazing trip!
Ethiopian Airlines my favourite airlines company ❤
T is it the camera quality or the place that is too clean, i think both😎😎😎😘😘 love your ethiopian airkines videos
Lets go simply aviation again!!!
11:00...That is one very small beverage for an international flight, however it is nice to see the actual meal is looks very delicious. Thumbs up for Ethiopian airlines.👍 😋
WOW 6 HRS? I ALWAYS THOUGHT AFRICA WAS SMALL UNTIL I BECAME A GEOGRAPHY NERD BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS 4
It’s bc in the world geography map Africa has smaller proportion with a deliberate intention.
You can fit Europe, USA, South America, India and China in Africa. Just my country Ethiopia is 4 times larger than Germany.
As usual you are the best guys!
That music Ethiopian Airlines was playing on board is actually no copyright music (Fredjj - Happy Life)
Thanks mate
Yay another tripreport
Great video too good
wow very interesting content friend
I have done this flight before!
Great review.
Watching your channel from a long time ,your intro as changed and your videos are getting better everyday . Keep it up ❤
Nice to meet you, thank you very much. You flew on the A350. I'm glad I was able to get a good seat again. The view from the window looked good. I think the in-flight meal was pretty good too. Thank you for your continued support. My videos are not very good, but I would appreciate it if you could watch them when you have free time.
So good
Hello simple flying! Ive been a fan of yo since 2018 or 2017 keep up the good work! 👍👍
Its simply aviation not simple flying
Simply a aviation, it's easy to get confused
ADD airport is gorgeous, it could easily rank up there with Doha/Dubai or Singapore
Not at all
Not yet
lol
I’m Ethiopian and this is bull. The airport is modern but overcrowded. A new “airport city” which will be larger than London Heathrow is in the pipeline though.
No way
Thank you for this trip report. I have always been a bit nervous about Bole Airport but it seems much better now. I would fly with Ethiopian in the future. Beautiful view of the airport and the city in the background just after take-off.
Wake up babe, SimplyAviation video is out!
That transition thoooooo
Good
Awesome video I'm wanting to travel to guangzhou from cape Town an thinking of flying Ethiopian airlines😊
Hey David,Felix and Simon been your fan since last 4 or 5 yrs. Just include a bit of plane spotting with arrival of it and departure info along with it. Thanks
nice
You always make great videos! Would you try flight to New Yogyakarta International Airport?
What a unique meal service.
Great service from ethiopian
Nice report. Not sure about those green seats though!
I always like to go on Korean airways
Korean air airbus a380 800 por favor es la mejor aerolínea desde cochabamaba Bolivia 🇧🇴🖐
I like the intro
11:54 you were flying over my hometown (Lusaka)
NOT THE INTRO MUSIC IN THE CABIN!!11!1!!!
Good landing from the captain 🫡
More Felix ❤❤
Do you have a list of your top 10 airliners based on safety, service, quality, price etc...
178 TH view and 37th like...love from india Felex and David love your vid...
If you are on a budget, fly Ethiopian but if you can afford, fly the pride of Africa...Kenya airways
I was on an Ethiopian A350 from Addis Ababa to Luanda on what was my second flight to date
The food itself in the meal service looked decent enough, but the dish with the dessert in it seemed to have a long crack in the corner. Plus it looked like there was a chunk missing out of the tray it was all served on. This is a big potential safety issue! Staff or passengers could cut themselves on sharp edges, broken bits of dishes can end up in the food, and cracks like the one in the dessert bowl can harbor bacteria.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
First com 🎉 fron Ethiopia 🇪🇹 ❤
UGANDA AIRLINESS
**pops up the notification**
me studying: well, gonna do it later
You could fly from Madrid to Monterrey with Aeromexico in business class
Not a very posh meal but it seemed tasty, nice video
It's economy mate.
I know...@@damcoentertainment3956
Great Airline, has huge potential. Reluctantly tried them for the first time on 29th Sep 23. Misplacing luggage seems to be a trend, be cautious about this.
I am travelling with Ethiopian Airlines in 2 weeks. Do I need a transit visa as a South African passport holder? My layover is only 2 hours. I looked on their visa website and it said I don't need it as long as I stay in the transit area for not more than 8-12 hours I think. Is this accurate?
Glory to Ethiopia 🥰🥰
Would've served snacks at the end of flight
What about luggage security is it safe?Can someone please answer?
Il be fliying long haul ethiopian in a few weeks please let me know if headphones are earubuds are included for the inflight entertainment 😁
Symply aviation go to fly with flyerbil pleas!
You should really cover the oceanic airlines like Aircalin and Fiji Airways on your upcoming videos. Also, please cover Bonza. I’ve heard from many people that they are really good. 💜🤍
Hello David, missing your voice over in this video.
when the us bangla flight
Please you fligt Mogadishu with flydubai
it seems that airline pilot has not arming flaps to 30 for landing the plane, if is this case then it is not safe to land the plane with that configuration of flap setting.
5:25 anyone knows the title of background classical?
How did you bear that couscous salad? Had it a few times and it remains bad on Ethiopian Airlines. They could really improve their catering game as they improve infrastructure
Total how many seats in this size flight ❤
Fly rwandair
If you want to go with ethiopian airlines you want to keep extra luggage in your hand like dress daily use because you will never get baggage on the same flight when you land . A few days after you will get it. You will lose your connection flight money and time I traveled two times by international flights but I received baggage after 4 days
Flying with Ethiopian Airlines in Economy or Business on African routes is always a mixed-bag. I've had some great flights & some outright shockers. My last one was interesting as the galley crew allowed passengers to move to the emergency exit seats after take-off even though emergency exit seats shouldn't be offered to passengers unless they pay for it at check-in, the gate or onboard; on Emirates or Qatar, you cannot arbitrarily move to an exit seat.
there always needs to be passengers on a exit row in case of an emergency. i flew in covid when planes had 6 passengers and they always moved passengers to an exit row
I moved to an exit row seat after take off on Qatar last week long haul Doha to Sydney. No problems at all.
I find it interesting that Addis Ababa airport has Chinese on its signs 😄
why r they bringing spoilers mid air
They re '' bleeding out '' the speed since it s flying so fast at cruise altitude. To expedite their descend they need to slow down first otherwise it will overspeed.
First
No! I’m never touching these tickets ever again!
I flew Ethiopian Airlines Gaborone - Addis Ababa - Heathrow ( economy ) The Gaborone Addis Ababa flight ( 5 hrs ) no entertainment and easily the worst in flight food I have ever had. Chicken and rice which felt like it had come straight from the fridge.Addis Ababa was not much better. For three days after flight was very sick with food poisoning. What I can say is the cabin crew were friendly though on The Gaborone Addis Ababa leg after serving passengers they sat in the business class seats and slept. Flight was 11 December 2023 I know it’s economy class but really? Having flown economy Emirates there is just no comparison.
did he get airpods for free?
They never got Ethiopia 🇪🇹👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫
Broken desert plastic dish? .... hmmmm...
I will never ever travel Eithiopan Airline any more.first lot of delays no respect customer service .they told my transit goes smooth. I have to wait my connection 7 hrs even they didn't offer me to stay hotel and no proper food in the Airport they offer me I was so disappointed my family I told they time I reach Djibouti. They tired and they went go back home again my second transit they do same thing the other thing it is not safe the pilot do not get enough rest. My sister who came from Saudi Arabia via Addis Ababa her luggage was open and stolen.
wait wait are you the one sleep with the pilot?? how did you know that the pilot got a rest or not? it doesn't make sense. also Ethiopian airlines offers customers in terminal and out terminal hotels if their layover time is 8 hours and above. you connection flight was 7 hour layover so it is upto you to get enough information about connection flights and layover times and select airlines that fits you so it is not the airlines fault.
@@m.y.m401Exactly, Abdul is either sleeping with the pilot or lying. 😂
I can’t be the only one wondering why every passenger is white.
yeah because they all arrived from Vienna.Ethiopian sells tickets VIE-CPT with a short layover at ADD.
11:08 yuck
good airlines, but one of worst airports :-(
That snack is a disgrace.
Horrible customer service
