A meal on an one hour flight? We could learn something here in the US.
Just for history…
I lived in Abha for about 20 years and exclusively flying this route only during such a period of time , not to mention Saudia's a330s were newly introduced to such route just back in 2019 because before this date no wide bodies were allowed to land there only narrow's and of course the famous a320 not even the a321 the a320 only, when I first tracked a saudia a330 flying out of abha I was really amazed and still remember it though 20/7/2019 one of the unforgettable dates in my life and still the story is to start … I quickly organised a flight on this route and it had a flight number of 8945 back then and when I stepped on board what I first thought about was the chance of David or Felix flying on this route or even this aircraft and with all of that report such a flight, those were series of impossibilities for me but I really wished that they report such a flight while the aircraft was still on stand 5 in the arpon prior to our departure … and now the dreams are really coming true and the trip report is simply done … that's amazing. As an aviation geek since birth literally and a subscriber for simply aviation for more than 6 years nows what I could just say for David and Felix is simply GO ON you are simply amazing and I wish you the best of the luck … not to forget that this specfic region is truly fascinating and not just abha the whole country of saudi arabia is really a piece of heaven and whenever you get the opportunity to visit such an outstanding country simply go for it you will never regret it …
Sorry for writing a whole article but believe me I tried to summarise as much as I could and again thanks simply aviation.
How come you verbally narrate your videos sometimes and sometimes you don't?
I know air arabia
Love you videos, but you're lucky if you get pretzels on a one hour domestic business class flight in the US. I thought the box was actually very tasteful and more than enough for a short flight.
Wow shortest bus ride in ever.
why the ground crew took the passenger to the plane by bus? It would be more interesting if passengers walk to the plane cuz the plane is very near from the gate.
that very short bus to the plane already happened to me lol
Can u give me a shoutout
So, you paid $86 more for a small box of snacks that you really could care less about! Not a very spectacular flight or destination!
That landing was pretty butter 🧈
Nice business class, but that has to be the most rattling interior noise I've heard on a A330.
Amazing video, Is it alright if i upload this footage on my Facebook page? Full credit will be given
A rare flight report that I excited to watch 🤩
Wonderful video man!
I live in Jeddah.
82 addl. Euros for such a pathetic dining experience, I would rather travel by bus…
Excellent trip report as always Felix!😸
Great flight, especially this flight is Short haul Business Class at Wide Body Aircraft. Thankfully, evn though at that time is Ramadhan, they still serve Snack Box upon request.
What is the purpose of this trip?
I uploaded a video of beautiful scenic views of an aircraft landing at Cox's Bazar Airport… please have a look
Did anyone notice the takeoff / landing sound at 5:57 ?
I really do appreciate foreign aviation enthusiasts covering our country's airlines and also our domestic routes. Well covered Simply Aviation !
I. Used to love in Jeddah but I'm in Lebanon 🇱🇧
