brussels airlines should you go to!

Aussie Flight Attendant here, ngl when I clicked on this video I half expected straight up slander, was really nice to see an open and honest review. A couple of things I would like to mention that may or may not provide some clarification. 1. No electronic devices on the tarmac areas is much like not being allowed on your phone when filling up your car (or a least that's a rule here in Australia) in addition to that because there's heavy machinery around and it's considered a 'sterile area' any distraction to yourself could lead you to accidentally doing something dangerous. We as crew are also trained to spot people who may be trying to record their surrounding with the intention of trying to find holes in security on premises so there's quite a few reasons why this is a no no. 2. The REX (short for Regional Express) lounge is indeed quite small, however they are only just gaining a foothold in the greater australian domestic market and up until now have been too small to lease any particularly major infrastructure within the airports. They are expanding quickly for the moment and their service is actually really good as well, highly recommend trying them out next time as they were recently rated as one of the best. 3. Jetstar recently introduced a pay-to-view in flight entertainment system which are still being rolled out onto aircraft, the most interesting part about it is that there isn't a screen in the back of the seat or in the armrest. You connect to a system on your own device that allows you to stream shows or movies and it's pretty cheap so for longer flights (2hrs+) its in my opinion really worth it. Just gotta remember to bring your own headphones for that one 4. Free water on the flight is actually a law as the crew serve alcohol, under the Liquor Regulation 2002 laws it's a requirement for a licensed premises including aircraft to provide free drinking water upon request in Australia. 5. Qantas banning recording onboard is an interesting topic which I feel quite a few people have misunderstood. At first glance I totally get that it looks like the company trying to cover itself up on a few fronts but there is some reason to it. First and foremost a handful of crazy/nasty people have intentionally gone out of their way to capture footage of crew in the midst of their duties because they are unhappy with any number of menial things. The faces and name badge photos of these crew are then distributed online paired with an exaggerated version of events and a crew member who may have only been trying their best within the scope of their job is then harrassed by a large group of people. 9 times out of 10, the reason this has happened is because someone hasn't wanted to follow simple instruction on board or has neglected/refused to comply with the law or airline policy. It is a requirement under Australian Law that if a Cabin Crew member gives you an instruction for operational or safety reasons then you must comply. The amount of incidents in which this happened flared up over the last holiday period and as a precautionary measure to protect crew and some passengers who suffered a similar fate, the no recording rule was rolled out. I myself was a victim of this, and the reason the guy in question flipped out and recorded me was because I asked him to put his armrest down, seatback upright and to have his window shade opened for landing as part of standard protocol. The biggest issue is that our crew ID is actually a form of government ID so if someone takes a photo and distributes it with the ID in the picture it actually poses a massive security risk as flashing one of those will let you into most secure areas of an airport. 5 tldr: A few idiots that thought they were above the rules ruined it for everyone. Hope this provides a little bit of insight :D

I think the big difference between the two is status for frequent flyers, if you’re Qantas gold or above you get separate security/lounge access, premium seat selection, extra baggage allowance and priority boarding, which makes a huge difference. Keep in mind, Jetstar is wholly owned by Qantas so aside from what you pointed out in the review they do have some operational synergy’s.

I fly Jetstar all the time, every year, and it’s a great alternative than flying the more expensive airlines - like Qantas. Domestic flights, are flights that literally get you from point A to B, like Jetstar. I personally, don’t need a T.V, or free food on these quick flights - ofc it would be amazing if they did. However, international flights are different and sometimes expectations - like free entertainment, free food etc aren’t provided, which then i consider bad service/airline. Maybe next video you can rate international flights!!?

With Qantas I’ve noticed when my dad was a Qantas gold status and the gate agent didn’t realise they told him it was a full flight in the same situation as you and then they realised he was good and magically a business seat opened up for him 😂, and I was in Longreach and a woman chased me off the tarmac for taking a photo of the nose 😭And the good thing is that you had a good time in the air, but I think Qantas has a great in flight service whereas the ground service is quite the experience, those self check in kiosks are quite common especially after the pandemic now so foreign travellers get confused sometimes, but they offer great service for Introverts

Qantas is good for short flights and really long flights but Jetstar is good for short international flights such as Melbourne to Bali because even though you have to pay for the IFE you can actually get good food on Jetstar because they make you pay for it and on short flights on there A320 sometimes I get a $10 dollar credit, keep up the great work Eric ❤❤

I am coming here to state that I could not have been happier with Jetstar Australia. Coming home from Christmas in Melbourne , tired and overloaded with extra luggage we were told at the check-in that the flight home was overbooked. I had no words. My wife was exhausted. We sighed that deep regret of acknowledgement that the world's business sometimes overwhelms the simplest people. I remember that I was clutching a life-sized Santa stocking full of Christmas gifts and that we were dragging a couple of those wheeled supersized suitcases, plus shoulder bag carry-ons, all full to burst. My wife sort of leaned against me and looked forlornly down at the carpet, both of us expecting to have to spend the night stretched out on that carpet over nearer the closest wall. " We can get you onto the next flight, first thing in the morning", explained the Jet Star check-in chicky with genuine regret at our dismay. ( OH, I know that is not the politically correct way to address the stressed out, overworked staff of a professional organisation. At near to seventy years old, even middle aged well dressed and coifed women are young enough to be my daughters and I still think, in passing ,that I would not have resentment against those lovely girls being so addressed, excepting as by a lout in a temper. Which I was not, am not and will try to be not.) Check-Out-In Chicky it is. At that moment , dark had long since descended outside of the terminal, we were too tired to care about anything. To have come so close to home, one short hour's flight after a month away amidst the bustling city, the joyous relatives, the explosive energy of grandchildren and the unused to smaller than comfortable beds, , the packing, the thee farewells, the escape.. we were spent. We had also blown a wall sized hole in our pensioner's credit cards. All hopes were downcast. Then from behind the milling crowd; A guardian angle descended upon us, her glorious smile irradiating the goodwill she wished to share. " Would you like the airline, JetStar, to put you up in an hotel for the evening? We can arraign that for you.", this said by the well meaning Angel oblivious to our depleted finances and our overall depleted reserves of energy to move further. " We have a limousine waiting to take you into town where all of our JetStar staff stay.", she explained in so kind manner that I was sad to almost say , " No, thank you. We will flop down against a wall. " Seeing my lack of enthusiasm arising she forestalled my objection with that magical phrase," The airline, Jet Star will pay for the room and give you gift certificates for meals. Please take this offer." Glory be and wowee, our spirits arose like larks singing at heaven's gate, ( forgive the misquote from some school suffered poetry.) A uniformed chauffeur took our bags, so many bags, and stuffed them into the accomodating rear end of a stretched LIMO. My first LIMO and whisked us off throught the swirling morass of busy Brisbane city to hand us off the also uniformed DOORMAN of the PULLMAN HOTEl. ( HOLLY SMOKES BATMAN.) They were expecting us. Ten minutes later we were stretched out on the double-wide beds debating whether we migh crawl down to the restaurant to eat or just go to sleep immediately. Yeah, well, Free food doesn't wait for the lay-a-beds so we washed up and leaned against each other in the elevator back to the lobby. Low and behold my hands, the restaurant was BONG TONG dontcha know. First class, suit and tie. It was by fortune's fate that I had worn long pants to fly. A small drink, not fruit juice. A long sumptuous meal, ( have you ever had a sauce hand made by the Chef from exotic ingredients, some pomegranate stuff? ). Couldn't fit in a dessert for I would have had to lean my head back to keep it down. I loosened the old trouser belt I will say, 'Top Notch Tucker.' Then to bed and a deep, sound snooze, too soon interrupted tov then reverse our course back to the airport in another LIMO. It seems we were to get our extra luggage all stowed away without an extra charge too. How good was our misfortune? By golly , that missing our flight was the best bit of bad luck ever visited on poor travellers. Looking back, I still smile and nearly laugh and wonder how we were so chosen to be picked out of a crowd. Perhaps we will miss another flight, anytime, with JetStar. Thanks folks. See you in the sky over my house all of the time whereas I never bothered to notice before. A big thumbs up for the JetStar service and a bigger wink to all of the Chickies.

Finally a vid I have been waiting for

As a wholly owned subsidiary of the Qantas Group, Jetstar Airways forms an integral part of the Qantas Group's two-brand strategy, operating in the leisure and value-based market. Our Australia and New Zealand based fleet comprises 76 aircraft.

I am an Aussie and Jetstar is not too bad. I have heard that Qantas actually owns Jetstar. Idk why people say Jetstar is bad. But some of the food is a small bit overpriced. Overall, Qantas is still better than Jetstar.

Its great to see aussie content, we need more content like this! What about the other aussie airliners like bonsa and rex

Thank u for that vid bc I’m from aus and I’m going on a 10 hour flight to Bali at te end of the year

To make it more fair you should take the flights out of the same airports and landing at the same airport as some airports have better ground services than others. That’s qantas didnt have much at Brisbane and didnt even have a lounge, but Jetstar had better check in, and they had a lunge. Love your videos! :)

YOO thanks for going to Brisbane for that first flight my city

You are definitely pretty lucky because once I was meant to be back to my state by about 8pm but things got cancelled and delayed and we had to stay in the airport for hours, and got home about 12am. Then another time i was in the airport for 5 hours because of a DELAY. I cant remember if they were jetstar or qantas but yeah.

Brisbane airport does have check in desks well at least when i went in 2023. And when i went to brisbane airport the security was fine.

THANK YOU ERIC IT MEANS LOTS TO US AUSSIES

As an Australian, I've flown Qantas and Jetstar many times over the past decade, and frankly I actually don't mind Jetstar, the flights I've taken with them have always been on time, and I don't mind paying extra for food, or I simply get something at the airport prior to boarding. The free food on Qantas for what you pay for isn't really much in the scheme of things, typically it's a simple snack and a drink or a meal that's been heated up if you're getting the breakfast or dinner service which are only on a few selected flights that depart at certain times. The good thing about Qantas though is that you generally do get better overall service for the most part, and they even provide free entertainment that you can access, and that I'm willing to pay for with a bit of extra money. The biggest downside with Jetstar are their strict baggage rules and how heavy your bag can be to bring it on board, it's also quite expensive to pay for extra kgs for baggage, which for someone who lives with a disability and needs to carry medical equipment on board, can be a bit expensive.

Worth noting that Qantas is the biggest domestic airline. They have check-ins in their international terminals but not domestic, because odds are if you live in Aus, you fly Qantas. So most people have the Qantas app which allows check in and boarding passes.

Australian here! Love the video qantas is definitely our best and Jetstar yes one of the worst but I fly with virgin airlines which is also Australian and there my favourite and so good maybe one day you could try them out too

As someone who is going to be flying on Jetstar from Melbourne to Gold Coast, I see this is an absolute win

What a winger…….and be grateful for the good security too. Check in now days is mostly done in advance on your phone….you only need to use the kiosk if you want to check in a bag.

Good job on video

I've gone on both, and I have to say Qantas is better for plane quality and Jetstar is so much more better with basically no flight delays, good management, good staff, and more reliable. Edit: The reason the Brisbane security took everything out of your bag is because Australian airports have very strict item rules and security.

Brisbane airport doesn't have kiosks, but Perth does, Qantas does have a business lounge, First class and rewards member lounge with unlimited drinks and food, and they have tvs int there and a nice view of the runway

Most of the time with Jetstar it's flight delays and quite strict in terms of weighing your carry-on luggage. If you can deal with those, go for it because after all, it's a budget airline. I will be flying with Qantas on international next month. Will see how that goes. I'm quite excited.

When r u adding a new video? i am really excited for the next one and i’m also very impatient!😂

That Jetstar landing was really butter!

1:34 "swap"? "swab"? I'm sure there is the option to pay extra for an exit row seat for better legroom. The fact that you were on a Jetstar A321, rather than a beat-up old A320, made a difference.

16:21 that guy just sleeping behind his seat 💀

Heyyy! You started in brisbane, that's my home airport lol. Also what day did you fly the qantas flight

You get what you pay for. Jetstar is a budget airline and I think some travellers expect 5 star service when pay minimal amount. I travel a lot and by using my phone app I can book, select my seat and checkin. Apart from delays I am a big Qantas fan

this video is 10 days old! what a suprise!

You still give me that one year vibe

Do Air New Zealand next. That unfortunately is the only airline owned in NZ, but you could compare it to Jetstar, who have some domestic NZ flights.

Last time I was supposed to fly Qantas, they delayed the flight twice then cancelled it. Our options were find somewhere to stay the night (at our own expense) or get on the provided mini van for an 4 hour road trip. Flight was an hr which is the whole reason I decided to fly. Instead of arriving at airport at 9 pm, it was 12.30am. No explanation as to why the flight was cancelled and no refunds on the flights…we didn’t take!

Mate the thing is with Jetstar, if things go to plan they are completely fine. It’s when they don’t that things can get very ugly. People having their flights cancelled and not being able to fly for 3 days. People having to pay for hotels themselves because the airline won’t help them. Plus crazy things like planes having to turn back when half way to Bali.

haha. As an avgeek and an Australian, i was taking photos of planes on the tarmac and i was also told off by staff. It happens in all the airports.

I think a key thing to note is that Jetstar do offer flights that would take over 3 hours long which is unusual for a budget airline

Thank you for coming to Australia ❤

OMG THATS MY HOME AIRPORT ❤ great vid mate

I am pretty sure the check in desks weren't there because it was the Brisbane domestic airport if you took the Qantas from Melbourne then i think there would be desks/kiosks. (Brisbane is a smaller city then Melbourne so that might be the reason)
