I have to admit, Asiana Airlines is not an airline I know a lot about.
I know they have a great livery and are a full service airline from South Korea but are they any good? Join me and we’ll find out together.
We’re flying on an Asiana 777 in economy class from Sydney Australia to Seoul South Korea with a flight time of just under 10 hours. The perfect chance to test out if Asiana is any good and if it should be on your list of airlines to fly.
We boarded and pushed back on time. Unfortunately though the pilots discovered a technical fault as we taxied to the runway and had to return to the gate. A 90 minute delay with minimal information provided was not the ideal start for Asiana.
However once the problem was fixed and we took off I got to enjoy the Asiana Airline hospitality in full. Their crew were lovely, the food – even in economy – was delicious and the seat was very comfortable.
The Asiana economy class flight review covers the entire experience including the onboard service, inflight entertainment system, take off and landing.
Is it any good? Asiana Airlines Economy Class Review.
Now here is the link to my great mate Jeb Brooks’ video he made whilst in Australia travelling on the iconic Ghan railway from Adelaide to Darwin: https://youtu.be/gNmhrTOYcqg

Is this a dry airlines?
Fantastic review Dennis!
$20 is a bargain to get a Jeb cameo
Thanks for the review Dennis. I can't help but cast my gaze back to 10-15 years ago and recall how similar Asiana's cabin looks to Singapore Airlines' back then on the 77W and A380!
Yo i saw u guys recording at victoria square i was on a tram going to glenelg and I couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw u with Jeb. next time is it ok to say hello
QANTAS could get Big Merv to do a stretching vid in front of bay 13, all the aussies would get into that lol. also as someone who works on the ramp at PER we are also very rarely told why a plane goes tech. we are simply told its returning to bay.
Victoria square?
Flew Asiana KIX – ICN 5ish years back and remember that the food, the people almost everything was great, with the exception of their color interior's color scheme.
It seemed like they picked up the brownish gray(?) from their livery but chose to just leave the other colors on their tail. Made the interior look kinda depressing without good contrasting colors IMO. But I'm no artist/designer soo it might just be me.
Great review as usual Dennis – loved the comment on the loo's "straining handles" … some of us need these as we age!!
A quick question: was the whole ADL-SYD-ICN on the one ticket? If so, are QF not able to issue OZ boarding passes – If not, how much time did you allow for at SYD to connect considering two tickets?
I know I’m going to sound privileged but 10-12 hrs in Y is not my idea of fun. Can’t remember the last time I did long haul for that amount of time in sardine class. Saying that 3-3-3 is perfect. Imagine that in an A380! I’m impressed how well you coped Dennis but you travel way more than I do you probably enjoy the change of scenery from J. Looking forward to your trip home. Pajamas 🤞🤞🤞cheers hon xxx
Great Vid as always ! Keen to hear both your and Jeb's thoughts on the newly released Quantas video promo for project sunrise…I assume it's one you'll be more than keen to try at some stage ! The A350 cabin looks great although I was surprised to see economy as someone told me they would not have this on these ultra ultra long haul syd – london flights..premium business and 1st only.
Another fantastic video Dennis!
It looks like you had a great journey (even in Y/C).
Well done mate 👍🏼
Nice review D dawg 👍…. When you gonna release some 'cheers, here's to a great flight' Merch?
Can you please update your business one please
The things that you hang on to if you're straining to get rid of a, you know, are called Thrutching Bars. You hang on to them while you "thrutch". A Lancashire colloquialism.
❤🎉thanks!!
Do enjoy seeing the economy class reviews now and then!
Considering the high level of poverty around the world Dennis, I think you need a reality check.
“Seems to have lost my touch” – Dennis your sarcasm and humour is absolutely top notch mate! 😂
Loved all of it, but the bathroom sequence was enthralling!!😁
although the 777 is shown its age, but Asiana still keep 3-3-3 configuration in their economy class which is very nice and rare !
ah-shee-ah-nah
the got a great frequent flyer programm as well, with some of the best star alliance sweet spots for First class redemtion
Asiana's merger is undergoing difficulties; a lot of regulators (US, EU, Japan) have questioned the merger and require all their approval to go ahead.
It's likely Asiana will stay as is. I recently flew Korean Air (LHR-ICN) in Y and the flight was acceptably average; the bimbimbap was a novelty but the overall catering and service was pretty average.
Dennis, just watched the Quantus promotion video on their new A 350 layout. Do hope we will see an upcoming video on both their new first and business class.
