    Thank you for the review! Hope to be on a long-haul business class seat soon. Yeah as you reported, it kinda is typical for an average Belgian to expect as most international people would consider slow.... it is good to point that out since most are expected to be served faster after takeoff and have time to work/snooze. Fantastic review.

    Hey Dan... Nice video. Was good to be aboard an airline I've only read about, or have seen the occasional picture of. Like the fact that you choose seats that give a great wing-engine view. For myself this is one of the best views in the "house" (except if you're privileged enough to get the view out the front windows). Not sure about the cod on the flight to JFK. Even in the video it looked -DRIED OUT. (Need to get a drink of water...) It really is interesting to see the different types of Business Class, First Class, Premium Economy Class, that you've sampled and shared with your viewing audience. Thank You. I did upgrade to Delta's Premium Economy Class, and find that better than the "coach" section. More room; more comfy. Cheers, T

You are the only reporter out there that does this, and I am always amazed how you aren't ashamed of other passengers and they don't really care about what you're doing either. What do other passengers say about your, well, hobby? BTW, in my opinion your channel is truly the best out of all aviation channels on KZread! :D
