I took a flight on what I've been told is India's worst airline - SpiceJet - to find out just how bad they really are.

For anyone visiting India, when Indians tell you not to do something, you should stay as far away from it as possible. I know that Noel was adequately warned about not flying this airline by Indians and he did it nevertheless bcs that's a review he'd never wanna miss, but seriously man, don't fly this airline.😂
Never trust any one
@@nftking1vote trump!
Lost it when the camera went on the sleeping barefoot man 😂😂😂
Cant affoŕd travel insurance cant afford to fly my opinion life insurance is weird 1 though prety sure air asia ( used to ) advertising onboard for insurance
i like the indians that stare into the camera when they get caught in the shot 💩👀
One thing I like at your videos is that you are doing the painfull economy and low cost side of Aviation as well. There are much enough guys doing the 1000th Qatar Businessclass video. Stay as you are Noel!
The moment they started charging you at the desk, would be a reason for me to cancel my flight at the spot. And you stayed calm and polite, respect for that!
Would be a short video though ;-)
Yeah. They were digging for any way to charge more.
u r spot on
Cancel? And being stuck in india?
@@HLl564 He went to Delhi, he still would be in India😉. You will find bad airlines worldwide, would love to visit India some day.
I flew them a few years back. Love the "lets get high together" - Also, as the back wheels touched down for landing, at least a dozen people were up and grabbing for luggage. By the time the front wheel touched down another 50 were standing up. Before taxiing off the runway, 50% were out of their seats. I looked at the FA, she just shook her head. "nothing I can do"
People in overpopulated countries eventually start acting like that. Doesn't get you off the airplane any faster.
That's just the way they are . You can't really change that haha . It occurs on Emirates too. I was shocked seeing them all get up. One of them allowed a case to fall on a lady's head . All the Indians were out of the seats whilst everyone else stayed with their seat belts fastened lol
Indians do have a tendency to get up before the sealbelts sign come off, but I've never seen a single person get up before the plane gets off the runway and slows down to taxi speed, and I travel pretty frequently.
@@truthhurts4732 and it may be allowed in spicejet but have never seen that happen in indigo....
@@truthhurts4732 a massive safety risk though
That slogan for SpiceJet "Let's Get High Together" is certainly giving mixed messages.
Thanks Noel for bringing us some more amazing content from around the world.
Ok, that has me converted… Although I’d rather the traditional plant based herb, rather than ‘Spice’
Then you can stop off at the snack shop if you get some munchies...
An airline with a slogan "Let's get high together" with Life insurance advert on both side of the bulkhead does not exactly spell confident...
@@cosplayshop Lmao. Jeepers, after the lamp post too..
Well, they are always high 😂
I always love the people in the background of Noels Videos when he is on planes, you always get the one person staring down the lens trying to look into peoples souls.
My favourite was the soldier just passing by with his gun
And mentally practicing their English. Can't blame them there...
You can actually see Noel's eyes water when he steps in to the Loo - This man is taking his personal safety to a whole new level.
The ‘Loo Review’ is always the highlight, this particular one even more so.
Well, it was, after all 'spice'jet ...... :)
He's in there filming and talking and I would have had my lips pursed and trying not to breath as much as I could stand and in a sprint to get out of it!
I fast forwarded that bit, lol.
Someone crapped. It happens.
The bigger concern is, how well does this airline maintain its aircraft from an airworthiness standpoint? If management seemingly can't get its act together with ticketing and cabin cleanliness, what else is it screwing up with? Verdict: unsafe until proven otherwise.
"He who is unfaithful in little, is unfaithful in much."
Don't worry the safety record is good. India ranks high on that metric also it's a budget airline (cleanliness is not the priority)
@@anishapoorwakispotta7754Indian airlines have a pretty awful safety record lol
The only Indian airline with a concerning safety record has to be Air India’s “express” subsidiary with some questionable crew. No other airlines present much of a challenge.
@@wockheart1916 exactly how?
What nonsense are you talking? India has one of the strictest airsafety rules! @wockheart1916
They may be a terrible airline but "lets get high together" is an amazing slogan for an airline
They could also add this to their slogan " no stem no seed that you don't need Acapulco gold is bad as weed!"
High on methane
@@douglasunmack961 🤣🤣 all that spicy food that they eat their farts could propel that plane!
@@jeffdavis7376 Seems like your experiments were successful. 💨🛫🤣🤣
Also perfect fit for a "Spice" Jet.
Being a pilot, I assume the flying part was done well and no issues with the piloting did occur. When I fly, that is my main concern. Thanks for the flight.
Most probably yes, as us being pilots, our job is to literally try to make it one of the most boring flights possible.
Spicejet is horrible, indigo has a better experience. Yes it costs a little more but at least you don't have a terrible experience.
well yes, as a baseline. I'd like NOT to die. But my expectations are a bit higher than not dying lol
Spicejet was once a very good airline, with better service than other low cost airlines, a decade ago. It did have financial issues, almost was on the verge of closure. It did come back into life, but was not managed properly, thereafter. As of now, Indigo is the winner when it comes to low cost airlines in India, while service still lacks. I would always recommend you full service flights like Air India and Air Vistara. Stay connected Noel!🙌
Once you see Spirit airlines in the USA you would appreciate Indigo far more.
@@RaghunandanReddyC I haven’t flown Spirit yet but I’m under the impression that the name comes from passengers wanting to get drunk to blunt the experience…
Then, I shall try, this year.@@RaghunandanReddyC
That’s funny.😃@@markiangooley
@@markiangooley My wife did a lot of "off the beaten path" traveling back in the 80's during her misbegotten youth. She tells me she flew TACA in Latin America a lot which at the time was referred to as "Take A Chance Airlines".
My corporate clients would fly around India on business. Whenever I offered Spicejet they would almost choke... "Anyone but them." Life insurance on a plane makes sense. We leave from a 'terminal' after all. Another great video Noel.
Can we all just agree that Noel is a great dude for showing us all flights most of us will never actually take for fear of crashing a plane into a lamp post.😅
He's way too overdramatic but his channels decent
@@jamesblueberry8581 Part of the "sell" most youngens love the constant drama, a la reality tv
😅
Lol
When the other plane hit the lamp post it was probably the fault of the tug driver who would have been in charge of where the plane was taken. The crew would probably be unaware of the danger and trusting the driver.
I’ll never complain about my flight ever again after watching this. But then I just watched a blog about Air Peace And I’ve got high standers 😂😂
You know it’s going to be a great flight when they have to stop plowing the field with the tractor to bring the Sky Steps out to the plane…
🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴 also the bear foot guy give 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Tractors are often used like that in many airports in india, they are not used for farming. The reason is because its very widely available, cheap, easily fixable and has enough torque. Quite an ingenious solution if you ask me.
@@sbrowman777is it considered that bad bruv? I also do that, after 12 hours of waiting and flying. I am honestly very tired wearing my shoes.
the things you have to endure to bring us honest reviews of airlines is #respect and #appreciation!
This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Between the look on your face after seeing that man’s feet, the comments about not hitting a lamp post, the snack bar name, and the stinky loo review…I was rolling. 🤣
Raw material for a situation comedy? (viz Film : 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels', scene in which Steve Martin is desperately trying to explain his circumstances to the local police chief in a small seaside town in Southern France / Cote d'Azure?)
The snack bar name was rather colorful
Nol, I am so sorry but I don't think I have ever laughed so hard at someone's misfortune before in my life. Talk about a flight from hell. Another fantastic video and thank you so much for suffering for all of our enjoyment & entertainment.
Fun fact Noel, George Orwell was born in Bihar. Motihari to be precise is 140 km west of Darbhanga
Noel, I'm a musician and fly a few times monthly for shows and whatnot. I really used to hate flying and was frankly quite scared of it. Your vids have definitely helped put me at ease when it comes to traveling by plane lately.
Air travel is the safest public transportation……
@@jonathansellars885 respectfully, this doesn’t stop people being scared :) I’ve done hours of research on plane safety and I still am terrified of it.
@@Cminorputitincminor I’m an aviation enthusiast so I’m not scared 😃
I found the Darbhanga part of this video rather interesting.
Darbhanga airport, located in the state of Bihar, is an Indian Air Force (IAF) base and includes a small civil enclave (hence the separation of the civil apron/passenger terminal). A temporary prefab structure was built a few years back but once the airport authority is able to acquire more land (ca 80 acres) from IAF, a new larger passenger terminal will be constructed. This could happen sometime this year.
Flights operated from this airport are under the Regional Connectivity Scheme initiated by the Govt. of India and subsidised.
That explains the contrast between the civil terminal which is tiny vs the large runway and airport grounds.
@@crBudgetWatches Yes and in addition a limited time window is available for airlines to operate at the airport. Hopefully the present prefab structure will also see some expansion.
Yeah land acquisition is underway to build a bigger permanent terminal in darbhanga. Let’s hope it happens soonz
This scheme is called UDAN. Its dubbed as India's alternative bullet train. With all the issues imagine travelling from BLR to foot hills of Nepal in 2.5 hours at 7K rupees.
I was already surprised that he was filming in the airport which was a big "not allowed" when I travelled to India some years ago. But reading here thst it's also an IAF I am even more surprised that he wasn't told to stop.
In fairness the lampost was hit whilst they were being pushed back, I believe. Hardly the fault of the airline.
Although one could imagine some strange scenario with reverse thrust here...
Nothing drives me more crazy then not getting what I legitimately paid for. 🤦🏽♂️
Everything.. and MORE lol
You are seriously brave. Never mind the pole crashes, a luke warm chicken dish must have been a recipe for a jet of spice later.
You are a brave man, Noel. A brave, brave man. Flying that rotten airline firstly, and then swatting away the check-in desk's hard-sell of their Max seats.
You'd be better off walking than enduring their service.
Fun fact: the original airline was mentored by Lufthansa, before it was bought by the current owner and was renamed Spicejet.
I suppose it could be worse. They could show you a heat map of the survivability rates in the cabin in the event of a crash for various seats and price them accordingly. "Oh, you want a 50% seat? That will be 500 rupees extra"
True. Spicejet used to be ModiLuft, a joint venture with LH.
@@Canleaf08 At first I thought you are trolling the Indian PM, but then googled, and damn... it was really named ModiLuft... a weird name indeed.. 😂😂
But didn´t he buy the max seat in the end? He sat in 1A and had 4A reserved prior. Or are you allowed to switch inflight as soon as boarding is completed on Spicejet? Also... that staredown from the guard with the rifle at 12:50 gave me the creeps
Absolutely no desire to visit India having seen these last few videos. The place looks a mess
Very nice of you to risk your life to show us this flight!!!
That is a bit over the top, no? I mean, flying is still very safe, in india too.
23:23 god that crowd to get off normally 😱
I wouldn't wanna be in any emergency evacuation situation with those people on board
I'm having my tea, settled in for the episode, I almost spat my tea out in laughter at the life insurance, that's hilarious, no Noel, not a good sign :P
Literally not a good sign lol
Imagine being a first time/nervous flyer and seeing that advert for life insurance when boarding the plane! 😬😂
Broken aircon vent makes one wonder what is hidden beneath the skin of the plane thats cracked too. Your a brave man Noel, Id be more worried about the mechanical condition.🥴
same here
Reminds me of a story my wife told me once. Right after the USSR collapsed she took a dirt cheap weekend tour of St. Petersburg offered by Aeroflot. During the climb after takeoff as a stewardess was coming down the aisle A BOLT comes rolling down the center. She literally kicked it out of the way. When she got to her seat the ask if she wanted anything all she could say was VODKA!
Absolutely.
havn't the indian authority been checking aircraft recently ?especially spicejet aircraft got bad marks against them
At face value (literally), the air vent being OOO is hardly anything to get too upset about. Things break on airplanes all the time, however most airlines know that something like this can send the wrong message to their customers and tend to get them fixed at the first opportunity. It sounds like this sort of thing is fairly common on SpiceJet, unfortunately, and it certainly doesn't say much about their attention to customer experience, which as Noel showed, is already quite bleak. They haven't lost a plane yet but it's not for a lack of trying - let's hope their pilot training and aircraft maintenance are far better than their customer service and onboard experience.
I'm so glad you arrived safely! Some of these broken down airplanes really scare me ! Stay safe and travel well ! ❤️
There was so much hidden humor in this video! It had me laughing through most of it!
Agreed! It was the cafe name then a segway straight in to the ad for a male intimate grooming set for me….🤣
Hats off to you mate for being so brave and filming these adventures for us. Great content always, wishing you and yours well from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Cheers man!
I LOVE the SpiceJet themed tractor. You don’t get that on Emirates.
Having flown many DEL flights, 20% chance that was water on the floor and 80% chance it’s the same liquid used to make yellow snow cones. I have seen washrooms that resemble murder scenes too. Well done review Noel under not the best conditions.
That up-selling at checkin was painful
It was not.
Lovely Video! I worked in Airline ground Handling at Zurich for 7 years (we handled around 70 Airlines) and among those we had as well some Spice Jet style companies. Was always fun in a way to switch during one Shift from premium Airline Handling to not so extremely premium ones:-))
I wonder who came up with that slogan on the portable stairway..... "Let's Get High Together"!!!!!
Yes it doesn’t seem to have been thought through! Still better than Go First whose slogan is ‘You Come First’ ;)
Sounds like my sort of Airline....420 Airways
apologies... how was this comment posted 5 days before the video was published???
@@thmsrttg Patreon supporters get early access to the videos
@@noelphilips "Spicejet: Don't worry, you're safe. We can't afford to crash!"
I wouldn't put it pass them to have designed the website to deliberately crash as you pay.
the jiggling sausage is not the most appetizing thing 😂
The shape of the planes and airline really reflects the state of a third world country in general. Chaos everywhere, no sense for standing in line, no sense for traffic laws, all infrastructure looks terrible. I mean, most buildings you see looks ready for demolition. Old tractors as airport vehicles, really?
Noel flys so much he sounds like a captain speaking over the in flight intercom 😆
He's also a private pilot.
Well, Being an Indian and being a pilot myself for Lufthansa. I can tell you with my experience 'When In India use Air India or Indigo'.
Oh Noel, never make eye contact when eating a sausage or banana. 😂
🤣
You are brave eating that food, you must have been riding the porcelain pony for hours
We’ve all had miserable experiences with trains, planes, buses, cars, and parking and walking places. This guy helps me put those experiences into perspective: 1. Well, I got home safe…. 2. So why did I think it was SO important to leave ONE day early (Greyhound c 2005); 3. I sure would have benefited from some role-playing practice (frozen in fear as a teen while a passenger rubbed my leg) on a Greyhound or Trailways bus back in the day. 4. No harm done (falling face first down a moving escalator @ Penn station, NYC 2018).
This guy has a great way of making this all seem funny.
How to survive flying? ..... not flying! In fact, I've lived in a small town here in northern California all my 35 years of life ..., and am as blessed and happy as I can be. 😊 🤗
Me too!
I have not been traveling out of my hometown for over 15 yrs and I feel blessed and happy among my loving family and friends!
@@Aria-cd6dq If you are surrounded by lovely family and friends, you are blessed; who needs to travel?!
Noel you missed the normal part of Bangalore.This week has been beyond awesome. Temperature was 19-25C for the whole week.The place you went,Delhi is the real hot part.Actually Bangalore has recorded the lowest temperature for the month of May in the past 22years.Delhi for instance has been hovering between 35-45C.Man you missed the real Bangalore man.You need to come back again next month.
@@SidGolan copy that,but still he missed the real Bangalore,even today the temperature is hovering with the minimum being 20C and maximum being 28C.
Spicejet sucks. A friend of mine who flew with them was lied to, cheated, and then threatened when she dared to raise her voice and complain. I repeat, Spicejet sucks.
When a plane is battered In the places you can see…. Imagine what it’s like in places you can’t see!!! 😳
You're lucky your flight wasn't canceled 😂 I m a frequent flyer & in my life I had booked twice with them ... both the flights never actually flew.
Appreciate you taking the pain to show the flyers, the plight of SpiceJet Airlines. Though SpiceJet started as one of the best low cost airliner, it had it's ups and downs in the past decades. They're absolutely in their descent phase as of now. If they could down size their operations and concentrate more on improving their quality of service and safe operations, there are good chances they could survive and hope for revival. When you're in India next time, you may have a brand new low cost carrier Akasa Airlines and a resurrected Jet Airways 2.0 in domestic air service. Keep it up Noel & be blessed.
Loved the video Noel! "I learned my lesson" from the power bank incidence was hilarious! Hope you keep flying in India!!
Thanks for the ride Noel. It’s definitely not on my list of things to do. You are very polite to these people. Can’t wait for the next one.
This guy literally makes money off intensely negative reviews about everything indian. I am amazed at the resilience of this guy. Inspite of all this negativity all around him, he still finds time and courage to stay on in this country. Thanks sir for being so mangnaminous
Would you prefer that he lie about his experiences so as to not offend, or be honest? And if you think all his India reviews are negative I guess you didn’t watch his recent Star Air video.
@@alanm3440 I would prefer him, you or for that matter anyone to be honest and righteous. That's what I would prefer. But not what I expect from self righteous and pretentious people. But you can count yourself out sir.
@@alanm3440 and I don't take any offense from him sir. To take offense at immature and hollow personages is beneath Indians. We extend our hospitality with warm regards to all. Having said that we are equally ruthless , if not not more, when it comes to our reputation and out honour.
@@fert809 Although he has come to India prior and had made quite a positive video on Vistara and Indigo. Also, in this trip he was quite happy with star air. So he is definitely not biased. Yes, he is slightly tone deaf with local cultures but for sure he also gives fair criticism.
@@ZK-APA you are right ofcourse. he aint biased. just highly prejuidiced and opinionated. and yeah count in obnoxious too. for lack of better adjectives lets just call him the epitome of unbiased reviews.
I love all of your videos Noel, but this one is probably my favorite. I wouldn't have the intestinal fortitude to willingly board an aircraft after learning one has crashed via backing into a light post...nope. But you did. Love how you take it all in stride and always find the humorous side to whatever situation you may be in. Good times!
Imagine the worst airline you know, then imagine that x100. That's SpiceJet
Feel for you Noel, hats off to you for standing your ground on the hard sell, I do hope you get your money back from this awful company. Well done again 👍
You would imagine that Indians could manage a working website.
I remember when airports had life insurance vending machines in the terminal.
Love the guy in 1F (?) with no shoes, but $900 Apple headphones... And Noel's little gag as he exits the loo ... well done for lasting that long before the inevitable!!
Sounds like an emotionally damaging flight. But probably not as damaging as the train......
At least it was over within a single day 😅
@@thabomabuza7340 Most likely the original commenter is a member or patron and has early access to the video.
I went for hajj in SpiceJet
Their service is the worst of all
Their air hostess are rude and specifically disrespectful towards elders
They comment on their passenger and look down on them
Probably the worst flight of India
This is what I might be thinking to myself: For those who have flown both SpiceJet and Ryanair is SpiceJet India's equivalent to it?
They are worst than that.
Yep, kinda
Compare to Spicejet, Raynair will be like an emirates first class. Atleast he didnt get oil stain on the windows or fungi in the head rest or a house lizard.
Yeah
Not really, as atleast with Ryanair atleast the fares are more value for money so to speak (you get what you paid for basically)
I had to laugh when he was eating that sausage, and the loo review was too funny
Makes the U.S. Low cost airlines look great!
Highly doubt it. If you mean Spirit airlines
Nope just look at frontier or spirit airlines
@@sumitshresth Noel seemed to quite like Spirit and Frontier when he reviewed both, at least as far as discount airlines go. Not quite the same for SpiceJet.
Is calling the female flight attendants 'Spice Girls' inappropriate?
@@sumitshresth Frontier actually isn't bad if you are only flying up to 3 hours. I flew them round trip from Phoenix to Cincinnati and found it comfortable enough.
@@RoadCone411 havent flown with spice jet since i dont live in India. I have flown between denver and miami in both frontier and spirit and my experience with both of them was not good. like people are added like cattle and quality of planes are not good. i have flown jet blue and find them far far better.
Noel this series/ trip across India is really spectacular! Great work as always!
"Food and beverages at the airport canteen cum snack bar are imported from Wilsford cum Lake, UK"
Also, those engines sure can accelerate like crazy (7:11)
uhhhhhh....no, no Spice jet for me....Here in the US, Southwest has *vastly better* customer service....being triple charged is *beyond unacceptable* in my eyes
I love Noel, he likes taking risks.
Life insurance adverts, you couldn't make it up 😂 Do you reckon the inflight movie would be Airplane? Wonderful video as usual
If they don't fix a simple air vent it makes you wonder what else they haven't fixed. I would never fly them!
they probably have a minimum equipment list so it’s legal and safe for them to fly with little things broken
@@yurtsalon with MEL you have to secure it and probably make the seat INOP or even the whole raw
@@mike499 that list doesn't say what to do about the little interior only things. And it's obvious that it wasn't going to fall as it still had the air tube thingy, so don't even need to secure it as it already was. Thus, that seat can remain operational.
@@electricheartpony I guess the MMEL does not say anything, I don't know about the company's MEL, maybe is deferred as a non airworthy item. Still not a nice sight, unfortunately the cabin is what the passenger interacts with mostly.
Hope you enjoyed that experience. You are a brave man!!!
I give you a lot of credit for getting on some of these planes ✈️ lol at least your hotel room looked real nice 👍 thank you again as always for a great video
Thanks for watching!
6:35 I literally spit my beer 🤣🤣
This poor man books the cheapest flight and complains about the wait overs and transits. Why don’t you fly directly from Bangalaru to Delhi(That option is also available)? Make a note how much would a UK based airline charges for same distance flight Vs a India based budget airlines. It must be 5 times more in UK compared to India. You are comparing KFC chicken with 5 star restaurant chicken. This guy literally earns view based on negative reviews.
Omg checking in was like trying to cancel satellite radio.
Noel great review Spicejet seemed totally underwhelming from pre boarding to the flight . You showed great spirit with your loo review tho .Looked like you had a pretty miserable day out . Shamefully I found it quite entertaining, great vlog 👍
As an Indian, i agree with Noel. I have had bad experiences with Spicejet.
I thought the hard sell was bad enough on Ryanair ( scratchoffs , etc) but 10min in the checkin pushing a upgrade is nuts. is the upsell this bad for locals too?
Yup. These are loss making airlines. Do everything to get extra sales.
They give up quicker for locals
maybe because he was a white guy?
You haven’t chosen the right flight, Spice jet from Banglore to Delhi via Darbhanga is a nightmare!
he intentionally chose this flight
hats off to him!
You true Brit sir, I am an Indian living in USA for a few years now, but I would say the Brits have a great humor for sure…even in tough situations their humor sense is amazing…And I do love Brit accent as well as countryside American accent…
Every time I watch you eat some of the foods on these low cost airlines in developing countries I always marvel at your cast iron constitution. You must have a gut next to none. I spent almost 3 years in India and 4 years in Pakistan and I was sick so often that I got used to it. Seems like you never get sick! What an immune system!
Your story reminds me of numerous flights within and to, India. 2019 we were flying from Bangkok to Deli with Air India. A Dreamliner which was already showing 'Indian' airline style maintenance. Within 40 min of the flight, 50% of the entertainment systems were down. The cabin crew were well familiar with this problem and rebooted the system... till it started fizzling out on different seats at random. My companions, who had never been to India were surprised at such a new plane showing such age. I said "Welcome to India." A country which blends state of the art technology with hit & miss maintenance, and customer service sometimes rivalling that which was found in the old Soviet Union. All one can do is laugh (and hope that the plane doesn't crash).
In all fairness, you went to Bihar (Darbhanga) India's poorest state, a third world in a third world. Didn't even know they have an airport there.
Thanks for "taking one...ok several for the team" Noel! I thought Spirit was bad here in the US, and I've never flown them...but WOW! Think I'll avoid Spicejet if I'm ever near one.
Interesting air flow you had at your seat on the 2nd flight. Most airlines would take that seat out of operation until that was fixed. Nice hotel room!
Bonus points for not hitting a light post. DOH!
I love it when the sitar and drums music kicks in at key moments.
Noel Pls Fly Duo With Josh Cahill. I saw you at delhi airport in his vid, so you both must fly atleast one airline duo and share your reviews.
We have something very special planned - watch this space 😉
@@noelphilips Oh! That's Great News!!!! Will Be Waiting.
That didn’t look fun at all! Fair play to you for your patience though. Enjoyed this weeks sponsorship too be lovely to know how many sales you generate from us subscribers!
It looks a complete headache from start to finish. I hope you enjoyed the beer. Thanks again Noel for these exotic reviews. I'm a simple Barnsley bloke living in Korea. Your videos make me want to get out and explore again now it seem that Covid is buggering off.
I'll take this route just to add another Indian airport to my list. Under normal circumstances, the probability of traveling to Darbhanga is nil.
Another great Video I was amazed at your patience while they tried to re-sell you your ticket and could feel the frustration of having to Travel with a sub-standard Airline. I would not have been surprised if they charged you for the Bus transfer to the plane or extra fees to use the Jetway or an extra seat belt tax..
I'd start to get really concerned if there was an upcharge for a parachute.
I find it creepy that there’s an advert for life insurance. The solider with the rifle was checking you out.
Spice Jet or Air Peace, which is worse?
Update: New worst airline - SamosaAir. [Samosas, as in balls.]
I had exactly the same issue with united. The website was broken and kept on crashing before the payment screen. And I never had a confirmation on the website. I did not have a confirmation email. I also used the app and no flights were being loaded. A few days later I got charged for 15 tickets for the same flight.
And I was flying with them a lot I had gold status at that time
I had checked my bank the following day just to check. And no charges shown. But the next day I get contacted by my bank about the issue.
I immediately contacted united and explained the issue. And offered to show them screen shots and videos of the website issue.
They immediately refused to refund me any money as I can only get a full refund in the first 24 hours.
And I continued to try explain no confirmation. No email of a itinerary. No flight loaded to the app.
After quite a lot of arguing I managed to get a partial refund.
And it turned out to be a known problem so that was disappointing.
And I couldn't even book the flight with them because of the website issues. I couldn't get a ticket or a confirmation and then I was being notified the flights I was trying to book were full.
I ended up flying with delta and it was actually quite a good flight
Oof 15 times, that's insane! At least you'd have had half the plane to yourself 😂
@@noelphilips never managed to get a confirmed booking.
Ended up booking Delta because I had to travel back to Asia for work. Took a business class seat under the cockpit on a 747. That was an awesome flight
Great video Noel. Brave man tackling those chicken sausages...I don't think I would have been that brave. That airline looked shambolic from start to finish. You looked mightily relieved to get back to the hotel 😂
It reminds of a "Seinfeld " episode in which Cosmo Kramer bites into a movie theater hotdog and says "Interesting texture ".
Thank you exposing them! I will avoid this airline like a plague. I will also tell my parents and friends not to fly on this airline and them to share the information with their friends and relatives.
Boycott the airline!
What are good airlines to travel in India? Curious
@@Parthsean Vistara.2nd option would be Indigo.I try to stick to these two.
Lol spicejet is totally fine
18:46 Bro is staring into your soul LMAOO
