Landing?

I did fly the Ethiopian Airlines Business Class last month. I flown the A350-900 and B787-8 Dreamliner. It was a great experience and the cabin crew was really friendly. I also got a nice room at their Skylight Hotel. I will only travel within Africa with Ethiopian Airlines Business Class because no other African arline company meets these standards.

I lived in Ethiopia from 1967-1969. My father was a manager, on loan from TWA, to help Ethiopian Airlines expand. Back then, Ethiopian Airlines had the Boeing 707 and the DC-3. I really enjoy your videos. Especially, the videos of the luxury hotels in exotic places. It put on my own music and watch with fascination and relaxation. There are very calming and spiritual. I hope one day to travel again.

Ethiopian Airlines is fantastic airline, I flown with Ethiopian Airline for quite some time since 2010 and I have experienced the improvement of service from cabin to airport staffs its by far my favorite Airline. Thank you.

One of the best channel on my youtube list! Thank you!

That landing was SMOOOOOOOOTH!!!!!!!!

Lovely seeing your family. Ethiopian Airlines interiors and meal service looked great. I have never flown them but would definitely consider in the future. I am the caregiver for my elderly Father and rarely get to travel now. In the past I always loved airports and the flight itself. These aviation videos are the next best thing and have educated and opened my eyes to explore parts of the world I would have thought too far in the past.

I would never presume to telll anyone how to raise their families and until I read the comment below, I had no idea there were "trolls" commenting. At times I'm critical of some of your destinations, you can't please everyone, but that's is why you do this, to expand our minds. I think you have a lovely family and appreciate your willingness to share them with us. You remain ,except upon "reflection", a mystery man:) Cheers and good health to you all.

I flew Dubai to Addis in business class. I love it

Mate new subby here, having 2 degrees in childhood education it is so refreshing to see such great parenthood, my parents would always make me fly economy as a child so I would value the concept of money and truly comprehend the nature of "luxury'. If luxury becomes the norm then the adolescent develops entitlement. Well done great video and "parents of the year". Tim From Sydney.

Dear Doctor, I don't know what to write this time. I read the incredible vitriol in these comments and its depressing. I can only chalk it up to commenters who haven't followed you for very long. Otherwise, they would have realized that those two have already journeyed to places the rest of us can only dream of or visit vicariously through your postings. Travel is (or should be) a mind-opening experience, and through their journeys with you, they're gaining experience that will serve them well in a world that you and I will not live to see. All children deserve that. They don't deserve the wrath of purported adults. And to the rest of you holier-than-thou types who feel compelled to negatively comment on the children: "Lighten up, Francis."

Unfortunately travel will become even more of a luxury than now. The budget airlines will be the first to go. The flag carriers will get bailed out by their governments. For example KLM already got 3.4 billion euros from the Dutch government. With the budget airlines gone the flag carriers can increase prices because of less competion. There's no signal that this will be a short-lived crisis so it's likely to happen. Mentour Pilot did a video about this. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z4l-tJuDdseziaw.html

Awesome review... Keep it up

Brilliant trip report. They seems to have a good business class product, although the seat isn't the most comfortable.

Cannot than you enough for your videos 🙏

Brilliant journey some years ago with them in Business Class and again this month when flying with them to The Seychelles.. Food quality was perfect, but be weary for a digestive after dinner there is no measurement and you will get a full glass of alcohol.... Be interesting to see how the small flight between Addis Ababa and Mahe will be this time around as the aircraft really needed a refurb for that part of the business travel.

I've been flying for business since 1997, and i don't know of any other company that had improved so much than EA. They did so many endeavours. Since 2015, when I have to go to some African country, I always choose EA (even with that awful stopover in Bole, the worst part of the trip),mainly because of their unbeatable value for money ratio. Day flights are - as for many airlines - better, and thus you can enjoy Injera :) Pilots are very talented and highly capable, FA are professional and very friendly if you know how to ... The real millstone around EA's neck are marketing and front office people.

I always wanted to have a dad flying business on the same plane just to convince him to change seats with me or to convince the airplane staff to give me (as a child) the same business meals at the seat of my dad...

The first time I ever saw this practice of parents flying in business and children in economy was on a Middle-Eastern airline. I decided to give it a go on a future flight. Needless to say, after about 1 hour into the flight, I was "forced" to give up my business class seat. On a subsequent flight, it was business class for all. This time, a classmate of my daughters happened to be on the flight, so she went back and spent the whole flight in economy. You can never win with you kids:)))

Nice flight report.

This was a nice flight. The seats were the best since it can lay back completely. The food looks nice and the wine list looks good too. How would you rate the trip? 7? I’m glad your going to Cape Town. I’ve been there and it’s beautiful. This time I can fly virtually in Business class. Love it.😊

Great Video!!! On the 1st July Ill be flying home to Germany onboard ET 706 to Frankfurt from Addis Ababa. My booking says my aircraft will be an Airbus A350-900 :D After what I had seen of your TRIP REPORT I decided to book us (my family & I) up to the Cloud 9 Business Class. (Though due to COVID-19, I am not sure how limited the Service will be, but still it that my family really is excited as I am to give it a try) Thanks so much for sharing!

Must be unintentional but you have mentioned the 787 is powered by Rolls Royce 1000 power plants , however upon disembarking the video on close capture of the engine clearly shows it is a GE nX engine. You may want to correct the subtitle on that one. Nice review as always. Keep it up with the exclusivity each time. 🥂 Cheers.

It looks like travel, within Europe at least, is starting up again. Here in the UK Easy Jet have confirmed that they intend to operate 500 flights per day starting next week. Not sure what the demand for these flights are however. I do not intend to leave Scotland again until 2021, and I know a lot of my friends are of a similar mind.
