Shanghai Airlines ECONOMY to Melbourne (operated for CHINA EASTERN)



G’day, my name is Jayden, welcome back to my channel! This was my 52nd flight in 2023; in early May, I flew Shanghai Airlines Boeing 787-9 in economy class from Shanghai Pudong to Melbourne. The flight was operated by Shanghai Airlines on behalf of China Eastern. I used my Delta Gold (Skyteam Elite Plus) status the lounge access. Enjoy the video & thank you so much for watching!

    Having my electronic windows locked would be a bummer because that's the selling point of the dreamliner!

    Perhaps they thought that English would be better and reduce miscommunication so they used it with you. However, it can be due to your seatmate too and sometimes the crew got confused as to which passenger spoke what language, hahaha.

    On JAL, when I immediately switched from English to Japanese the crews immediately spoke Japanese to me 100% and translated my requests and their requests to my other family members 😂 I ended up shocking my seatmate and a crew cuz they didn't expect that I could speak Japanese.

    Great video as always, thanks for reviewing Chinese airlines as I have been quite curious about them. If you don’t mind answering, may I know why you went vegan / tend to order vegan inflight meals lately?

    What's the point of having 787s and A330 under Shanghai Airlines instead of just using them under the China Eastern brand?

    you should try ICN for transit and not go to the airline lounge. very nice because there are free public showers in the International Transfer "lounge"

    chairs are also very comfortable there.

    very interesting and solid video. Appreciated learning about this airline. Thank you. See you soon!

    I saw a video from @noelphillips recently labelled "i did not expect this flying to china" and he was going to china and he was explaining how difficult it still is for tourist to gain entry into china, and the high chance of being impouded by immigration

    Another Jayden gets tortured for us vlog 😂
    Have not been thru Shanghai Maco or HK in ages
    Spirits Jayden ? Are u being haunted ? Lol 😂
    Jayden u no longer sanitize your seat before taking it ? Disappointing young man
    Oh was that brocoli > 🤢 trees should not be eaten Jayden
    Breakfast didn’t look that bad

    Firstly, locking down 787 windows is a major no no for me. I will avoid an airline over this.
    Secondly, I'm so very curious about the blurs in the bathroom, lol. I assume you were midway through getting changed and the polished chrome was giving off OF vibes.

    Also, Melbourne I think has the best nightlife in Australia, particularly for our scene – sadly.

  25. Food and Travel

    Great video! It’s quite interesting and surprising that China Eastern doesn’t merge/integrate Shanghai airways into MU. Considering that everything like the product and service is effectively the same!

  26. Michael Armstrong

    Great video, Jayden! It got a little confusing who belonged to what with the different plane and crew than the flight designation. Looks like the service was pretty good nonetheless. Although, I hate it when the crew locks the windows on the 787. That lounge was really nice. Too bad there are still so few people there.
