That aircraft will go back to Finland eventually with an accent and a dirty mullet!
my heart goes out to 6'4 in these long economy class videos
1:34 that is one beat up british passport lol
🤣🤣🤣
I flew the Finair operated by Qantas from Sydney to Thailand, it was the greatest flight of my life
glad you enjoyed it!
Well done as usual. Airport is awesome. Nice BA lounge. I hope 6-4 got his in-fight video working! You really make that back row look appealing. This is getting me really jazzed for my planned work trip to Marble Arch this summer! Thanks for sharing!
a quick reset and he was able to watching movies again! 😁
I did this flight a few weeks ago. Pro's hard product. Cons were the food and the timings of the meal services. The timing of this flight is perfect for overnight sleeping, but when I did it the lights were off for not much more than 3 hours which wasn't great.
wow i never knew my back looked this good thank u sir
I think I saw you on here, walking into the airport. 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@GaryInAmsterdam 👀 damn am i seriously that noticeable 🤣
@@schnape1 🤣🤣🤣 You had a nice swagger going on!
Finnair has a daily HEL-SIN service (A350), cabin crew is based in Singapore on these flight too. That means you can't get service in Finland's official languages Finnish/Swedish on this route, but it seems Finns are ok with that. A similar situation would cause riots in France :)
haha I have thought about that before. The Hong Kong flights are the same. I had Hong Kong and Indian (Delhi based I assume) crew on the HK flight last time.
Glad you two are having fun traveling!❤️✈️
thanks Diane!! Greetings from sunny Cape Town!
Food in the lounges and onboard looked yummy. SW Airlines train! Dallas shoutout Haha. Great report ❤❤
Thank you for this comprehensive review. I’m flying on this flight shortly, and the other economy flight reviews of this flight so far basically show you the seat but not much commentary on the flight as a whole.
Looks like I’m in for a comfortable flight
have a great flight Bruce!
It looks like you enjoyed the seat a little more than one of the last times you flew Finnair...
The Singapore Roasted Chicken Dinner was great on the same flight 2 weeks ago. I believe the reason for the smaller breakfast serving is due to the flight only being around the 7hr mark.
yeah their older seats on the 350 are too hard for longer flights, could never sleep well. It's a shame that Singapore-SYD/MEL/BNE/ADL flights on SQ, BA, EK and BA do 1 meal and 1 light meal. When HK to SYD/MEL/BNE (just slightly longer flight duration compared to SIN) you get two full meals on CX and QF. Which means if you do the kangaroo route via HK and mainland China you get way more food.
Thanks for the nice vlog today. Good to see that Mr 6’4 enjoyed himself at Buetiful London.
cheers Yan!!
Great video, Jayden! It’s an interesting concept to have Finnair operate a QANTAS flight. Looks like it was good overall. I really want to see the QANTAS lounge at SIN and also get back to the jewel. Thanks for the trick about checking in early at the jewel. Hope you had a good time in London!
Beautiful, wonderfully described video. Mouthwatering, when it came to CHANGIng lounges at SIN. Nice review of your stay in London. Until next time, bon voyage!
thank you so much :)) Have a lovely weekend!
Great video Jayden! I have always wondered what a wet leased flight was like, I love finnair. As well as this awesome to see the Qantas lounge, as I am using that for my stopover in Singapore when I come back from Europe on QF2 (LHR)! Keep up the great videos!
thanks Cillan! Hope you learnt something :)
Great Video once again I can’t explain how much you make me excited to fly again and I got to say I went to the BA lounge in Singapore last year and it was pretty mid for dinner.😢
thanks for watching! A lot of people said the BA food was bland
Enjoyable review as always Jayden and always like the travel blog's at the end
thanks Phillip, glad you enjoy the vlog!!
Flying Bangkok / Sydney on Tuesday with Finnair / Qantas . Looking forward to it . Thanks for the video .
You should enjoy it... my personal opinion is the Finnair A330 is a step up on the same aircraft Qantas use (more comfortable). I just did the SYD-SIN & SIN-SYD on the QF/AY service 2 weeks ago.
@@ausflyer good to know !
As the sydsquad would say. Welcome to the Bondi beach Cabana (Cabana is a very mild Brand of salami sausage)
Enjoy your flight!!
@@JaydenWong thanks !
tks for your explanation about crew, always wondered about this
my pleasure!
Yay thank you for reviewing my favorite airline
my pleasure!
Great video Jayden! Interesting how the service started with premium economy does that mean they got the same food as economy? On this route I never fly Qantas but always choose SQ!
loving this review! (was actually hoping there was an economy review of this flight just yesterday XD)
there are a few economy reviews online now... loads of Business & Premium Economy reviews as well.
@@ausflyer i prefer economy reviews, more relatable for myself
Glad you enjoyed it :)
JW and 6”4…hello from San Francisco. Lovely weather here and dinner out with friends tonight. Great work as usual. BB
Hello from Cape Town, lovely weather here as well! Cheers Bobo!
Thanks for another great flight review and vlog. My all time favourite quote: "because 6'4 is an airport dad" 😂
thanks Patrick! :)
Looking forward to your review for your flight out of LCY!
😄😁😁😁
Great video mate, I'd love to see how many people are confused af when getting on QF292 and seeing a Finnair plane and crew 😅
I was looking around the plane to see how many curious faces there were. I guess many people don't care about planes, didn't see many 🤣
Hi Jayden thank you for the video food in the airport lounges looked pretty good. Loved the video of London and Windsor Castle thank you .
cheers Maureen!! :)
Garlic bread was not what I expected to be served in economy. That's great!
totally!
Sorry about the late comment! Great video like any other!
thanks Oscar!
The cabin looks nice! I can't wait to try this on the SYD-BKK route. Hopefully the leg room will be enough...✈️✈️✈️
enjoy the flight!
thanks for the blogs at the end of the flight report...
thank you!
Thanks for this vlog! Have an amazing day! Cheers
thanks Lawrence!!
@@JaydenWong you're welcome. Safe travels. Cheers.
great video as usual....
loved when your bf said...."good bye " to your bags......
food on the plane looked good
Interesting video Jayden. Love seeing ur a330 vids
thank you!!
Outstanding as usual!
thanks Patricia!
Exploring from your eyes keep it up🙂👍
thanks!!
Well done buddy, another great trip report! Wow, the food offering in the QF lounge in Singapore is so much better than Sydney lounge! Have to ask, 6'4" is an airport daddy? what is that?
thanks James! Airport dad refers to people (usually men) who are stressed about the check in time, missing their flight etc. Obvious traits are: frequently checking their watches, holding everyone’s passports, going to the airport 7 hours early🤣
@@JaydenWong you do learn something everyday!
the BA and Qantas lounge have no bidet/water gun in the toilet 🤧 that’s sad, i think only the Qatar lounge has bidet (but access to this is limited only for business and first class passengers). nice review, Jayden!
thanks! I was in Japan two weeks ago, miss the bidet toilet!
Jayden, you are looking remarkably fit and well and even more relaxed than usual 😘
ahaha thanks Norman!!
Always keep me guessing with where the random vlog at the end will be lol, how do u decide which vlog to put at the end of each video? Also get a railcard! Will save u lots of money travelling in uk.
Usually I try to match the city I arrive into. But I didn’t film in Sydney so I looked for ‘excess’ or ‘leftover’ footage haha. I flew Icelandair to London in Feb and did vlogs for 2 days. When I upload the Icelandair video later this month, the vlog will be two days before the day I went Windsor
Appreciated your video once again. I think you are closer to most people with your food reviews rather than some other reviewers comparing it is a fine dining restaurant. Have you moved to Sydney to be with Mr 6’4”. If that is too personal, don’t feel you have to answer.
Airline food is always going to bad if we compare it to fine dine haha. 6'4 will be moving out from Sydney for his new job overseas :) We just don't know where he'll be posted yet
@@JaydenWong I hope the new location for Me 6’4” works well for the both of you.
I’m looking forward to flying Finnair syd - bkk in November
enjoy!!
i love flying i enjoyed very much greetings from the netherlands
Welcome to Singapore! And hope u had a good time in PVG on all the xiao long bao/ crab meat hehe! 😊
Yess we got xia long bao near The Bund🤣 probably tourist prices but it was still heaps cheaper than Hk😂
I Like Changi Airport.Great Video
thank you!!
Nice work jayden
thanks Jasper!
The IFE not working is such a Finnair thing 😥
v nice video!! thanks 👍🏼
thanks!!
Just curious, what is your priority when it comes to choosing Economy seats assuming no free upgrades and just picking the regular seats, not bulkhead or extra legroom.
privacy, seat at the last row means I can recline freely :) without disturbing others too when I’m filming
So cool favorite CZcamsr
thanks!
I wonder if Finnair's A330's will also be utilised to Manila flights as well
Love your vids keep them up😅
thank you!! :)
NIce one jayden and 6'4.....if you had a choice would you choose finnair economy seats over qf1 a380 on this sector? Don't ya wish the singapore qf lounge was like the Hong Kong one? I still dream about the cheesecake lol.
Safe travels guys!
A380 is definitely more comfortable. But big planes usually mean longer service time which results is less sleep. I think I'll prefer QF292 on this route. YES they need the cheesecake in the SG lounge.
Looks like it is not 100% full flight. A question, are those Finnair crews working under Qantas?
Great trip report! 👍🏻👍🏻
wet leased so they are still Finnair employees and paid by Finnair.
Good vid!
Thanks!
1:36 Don’t drop them!
Hi bro i like your videos, today is my birthday and my brother's birthday
Loved the review and speaking of the AY A330 is it better than the QF version on this route or not? Speaking of the AY A330s are they usb only like PR or combination AC USB power supply like AC/QF. An unusual feature of the AY A330-300s is an external camera not seen on A330s
each to their own really. It's only the seats and crew are different
Mate, I love your CZcams video. Do you live in MEL or SYD?
neither! I lived in ADL for the past 9.5 years but I just moved out last month. Moving to a permanent new place in a new country in the next few months. Currently just travelling .
how do you all eat at the lounge and then eat on the plane?????
HAHAHA there's always room for more when you travel 🤣
Great video Changi such a great airport how about Sydney to Tokyo on Qantas or qf43
I usually pick what's the cheapest, to and from where I need be. If QF43 is the cheapest or Qantas is the cheapest from SYD to Tokyo then I'll book it.
Your the only exception. Most airlines, including my flight meal has 2 option, chicken or beef with rice? I went with the chicken rice and it taste good. Why you don't try the chicken rice on Finnair, Airbus? Chicken rice is delicious than beef.
you can have chicken rice anywhere in Australia and Singapore and it's cheap. Beef noodles on the other hand not quite.
Okay I see.
You left Adelaide! Where are you now? More importantly, what about Lily?
currently just travelling! Cape Town this week :)
Lily is staying in Adelaide with my housemates as I do not currently have a permanent home. Thanks for asking!
The cabin crew on the Qantas wet lease Finnair aircraft are actually Thais that work for the Qantas labour hire company based in BKK that supplies Thai cabin crew to Jetstars Australian registered aircraft. It’s done to avoid employing Australians and save money. Usual Qantas shifty business practice.
they are Singaporean Finnair employees. The Jetstar crew (Australia/Non-Australian) have nothing to do with the Finnair flights.
Do you live in Sydney now not Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne are probably better for all the international flights.
Neither. Currently just travelling. Cheaper than renting in Sydney or HK. But will be getting a permanent home soon
Great Video!! What date is this cause I did see a Finnair A330 and over me 😅
late Feb :)
I don't share the exact date here anymore due to privacy reasons.
Can you try the new malaysia airlines 😊❤
Maybe one day!
Do i understand that you no longer are in Adelaide
correct. Moved out 3 weeks ago!
@@JaydenWong Enter the hassles of Sydney lol. Way too busy
8:49 the only thing you get from Qantas is poor service and never ending delays
Hello Jayden & 6 ft4❤❤
hiiii!!
Good Morning from Germany 🇩🇪. Next capital of Honeymoon Tour😀😃😉. Wish you all the Best 🙏🙏
Greetings from sunny Cape Town! Have a great weekend!
@@JaydenWong thanks 🙏
No soap in the toilet ??? I would freak out !!!!!
We fkew Helsinki to Singapore with Finnair. Is this the same flight? Did ut simoly xarry in to Australia?
Loved the Quantas lounge.
Helsinki to Singapore is on the newer A350 I think. :)
@@JaydenWong yes of course your right.
Thanks for the old wise words.
Or was it wise old words? No matter.
Hi your former home Adelaide? Where do you live now?
Hong Kong airport, I suspect 😁
haha currently ‘homeless’. Cheaper to travel and stay in hotels than renting in HK or Sydney. Should be getting a permanent home soon though.
A300 service to Sydney Australia
Haha good nickname for your boyfriend! 6 foot 4!
So did you move together in Sydney 🙂❤️?
nope, in fact, 6'4 is moving out! I'll be joining him wherever his new job takes him. Probably Hong Kong
@@JaydenWong so what is his job, and yours ?
@@MrChrlau for his I need to keep it a secret. I just do videos here for a living!
You mentioned you don’t live in Adelaide anymore, did you move to Sydney?
Currently ‘homeless’. Should be getting a permanent home soon
@@JaydenWong oh, well hopefully that can happen soon
Have you ever fly with Oman Air?
no I haven't, hopefully soon!
need JAL or ANA flight
I have plenty on my channel
Airport dad lol🤦♂️. You kinda are too though
I absolutely am not 🤣 if I am not filming I'm not getting to the airport til 30 mins before
The People at the BA lounge let me and my family in the Ba lounge, They do follow the rules but let it slide quite a lot. I was a family of 5
So 6’4” actually wanted to go shopping Jayden ?
in the Jewel? No we just met some friends haha
Waitx5. Finnair has partnerd with Qantas? Since when?
Qantas is wet leasing aircraft from Finnair for some SIN/SYD/SIN and BKK/SYD/BKK flights that's all. Both Oneworld partners.
@@AUmarcus oh. Ok
@@Starvaze
It's been going on for a few months now. SIN was first, BKK was recently added.
@@AUmarcus Ah.
Finnair has similar deals with BA and Qatar Airlines too. They have some extra capacity now, the Russian airspace is closed for the EU/European airlines and that limits Finnair's services to Asia, which has been their key market.
Even with Finnair crew there’s no escaping acknowledgment of country 😡
Surely not mate who cares
@@johnisawesome2015 I bet you voted YES to that r@c15t referendum too 🙄
Honestly does this bloke understand the difference between vegan and vegetarian? 😂
Seven hours before a flight is a bit ridiculous
he had lounge access so why not
plenty to do at Changi, and several lounges to fill in the time.
@@ausflyer Changi is an overrated shopping mall and I'm not a teenage girl stuck in the 1980s so that sucks
@@cbkia Lounge access is fine to get a meal or something but anything more than two hours is useless. I've had nine-hour layovers with lounge access and I still wish it had been 90 minutes at most and then only because it was an international connection where I had to get bags and re-check them
@@markcorneliuslau I didn't say shopping... Rooftop Bar & Pool is one example, or one of the First Class Lounges if you are fortunate to have access (and it is very easy to spend a few hours in there, 7 hrs.. heck no).
It’s a shame our national airline is such a shit stain. Finnair would be cool I reckon though.
gayyyyy
芬兰航空 节省飞往澳大利亚的运费！ 😀
Hey Jayden and 6ft4 👋
Great tip for early boarding 👍
Glad you got your champagne 🍾
Dinner on the plane looked very tasty 😛
Great Vlog from London and the Castle 🏰
