    I really like how Austrian values the national dishes and presents continuously presents them onboard their aircraft instead of just serving the mainstream steak. Nice report!

    Thank you for filming the full takeoff, as when you fly in a higher class you don’t just get first class service, you get first class engine noise!

    WOW, what a great national airline. Great to see Austrian doing so well. Seems like many other national airlines are having a rough time at the moment, (BA, AI, Qantas, etc.) and other national carriers are becoming more noticed for their excellent service, and great food. Thanks for the ride, it was great.

    The seat looks really appealing, would be nice if they did like Singapore (singapore does FRA-JFK.)
    LHR-JFK with them would be good.
    Along with this, when you next try a British airline try Loganair.

    • @lorddarlo6194
      @lorddarlo6194 Před rokem

      They wouldn't them do them routes Austrian is Austrian Lufthansa and Singapore serve Frankfurt to Singapore which is in Germany. As for LHR to JFK one of the most competitive routes in the world well again no airline has Fifth freedom rights to serve that route they are all direct flights with American Airlines, British Airways, Delta Airlines, Jetblue and Virgin Atlantic BA has like 5 or 6 flights a day American 3 or 4, Virgin has 4 or 5, Delta has 2, JetBlue has 1 where would Austrian fit in they couldn't even do VIE - BHX - JFK as that would not make sense Air India or EK doing DXB - LHR - JFK or DEL - LHR - JFK Which I believe they used to do would make sense your connecting Delhi or Dubai the national country of that airline to London but also serving JFK which Indian passengers could go on. No one would fly Austrian when they offer Direct VIE - JFK flights. Delhi to New York and Dubai to New York are long flights so would offer a break and Dubai to London is a busy route

    When I was a preteen on my way home from visiting maternal relatives and friends, I was on a Lufthansa plane in a window seat. I spent quite a few minutes glancing at an Austrian Airlines jet at a neighboring gate. Interestingly enough, the same Austrian plane took off before the Lufthansa flight my family was on departed. I like to think that the passengers on the Austrian flight to Vienna over 15 years ago had the same positive experiences that Felix had.

    Hello Felix. Another good trip report. Lucky guy being upgraded from a connecting flight in Premium Economy to a non-stop flight in Business Class. Loved the meals served. Hope they tasted as good as they looked (especially the Double Chocolate Cake). On a long-haul flight like this one (9+ hrs.), it is always a excellent idea to book a class where you have more space to move about (e.g. Premium Economy, Business Class, First Class) as long as you can afford the extra cost and the upgrade is worth it. Kudos to Austrian Airlines for such a good product on the route flown. Keep up the good work!

      We don’t do this because it would be extremely complicated to come up with a way to compare so many different airlines and products, Business/Economy, LCC/Full Service Carrier, Long-Haul/Short-Haul, etc. We believe it’s impossible to break this down into a reliable, usable rating system, so we decided to only report on the experiences you can expect to have…

    Great vlog as usual, Simply Aviation!
    To complement the review, it is important to mention that the Austrian B777-200 is an outdated plane with an extremely noisy cabin and no WiFi at all. If you're flying long-haul for 9-12 hours, you can easily get tired even in business class. It's a big difference compared to more modern planes such as the A350. A great catering is not everything.
