So, flying on economic class with some luck has (included) a lounge access?

Just something to consider:Motorized walkways may be a connivence for most able bodied people, they are a necessity for people who have mobility issues.

I am so glad I stumbled upon your videos. Thank you for sharing your POV of a F1 media person, also just really enjoy how fun, calming, fair and honest all your videos are! Good luck with cutting out sugar for a month, it is hard but super beneficial for your body!

Loving the videos, I am on holiday in Perth form England in November and cannot wait.

The Milan lounge reminds me of the same zoo like conditions at Manchester (UK) airport. BA closed their lounge and now use the one that people can buy access to. It is dreadful.

The Emirates Lounge we went to at Malpensa leaving the Italian Grand Prix on our way home to New York was fantastic. Happy we avoided the lounge you went to. Did not look good. Thanks for the review. One of the worst airport lounges I have been to is the Wingtips Lounge in Terminal 4 at JFK.

How does Singapore airlines have so many 5th freedom flights? They also fly to LA with a stop over in Tokyo and also a flight to Milan and then to Barcelona or Denmark i think, not sure Surely it would be better to fly to Houston going East... if they can fly to NY direct then why not to Houston going East from Singapore, why the stop in Manchester?

Hey Kym, I love yah, and i think your videos are great.. always looking forward to the next one. However, that being said, most of us grunts, blue collar workers and average everyday people cant even probably imagine what its like to even step foot into one of these lounges.. even the bad ones. Having said that, I do have an idea for a video you may like to do in the future... and perhaps youve already had this request, but, I would love to see a video on.. F1 on a budget.. for the current times.. you know, post covid, prices are jacked everywhere, through the roof. But for sure, a video on traveling to see an F1 race, finding cheap and modest loggings, as well as public transit to and from tracks, would be awesome. It would certainly be helpful for the average Joe who isnt well off, to be anle to see a GP weekend in person.. when traveling to another country of course. God Bless Ya Kym. Keep up the awesome videos. Forever a fan

The travellator was first implimented in the USA as planes got bigger passenger numbers congested airport terminals and causes hold ups. Increasing passenger numbers across the world ment more airports operated large planes with longer terminals effectively operating a traffick system for passengers to increase loading effeciency . In the UK there is a maximum speed for travellators however it is possible they could be vairable in some countries. Large families with childen or older adults walk much slower that the average walking speeds whilst business passengers tend to walk faster.

Don't start eating before 12:00. Any non sugar and non alcohol beverage is allowed. This is were you may need some will. Only drink like 1/2 L of green tea for your breakfast. Cut everything wheat, i. e. bread, pasta, pastries, etc. It only bloates you and have very little nutritive interest. Stop eating at about 20:00 No sport needed, you will see.

I will ALWAYS prefer the A350 over the B787... Shared lounges are never as good as stand-alone...

Anti noise headphones help with air travel

I hate to tell that all those bread rolls have sugar in!

WHy you should pick the the A350 business over the B787

To add to @manualflight comments. Don't blame Boeing for the seat size. All manufacturers offer from high density (inner island Japan) to lounges (long haul). It's the customer (the airline) that chooses the interior layout. Also often the same aircraft type is configured different ways with different registration numbers, despite being the same model. Still enjoy your videos! The first tier of lounge at Newark (EWR) terminal C is often crowded, and not very clean. Skip it...

Man - I WISH bread didn't have sugar in it!

Loved the video kym

You were having plenty of sugar with that meal. The bread and pasta ( where they potato) is very quickly converted to glucose by the body.
