These videos are SO addictive! We are fans of yours but being it’s based around F1-the sport, it’s lifestyle and all it’s elements, the travel vlogs, your experience on and off the track, just brilliant and very entertaining. Thanks Kym!🙏🏻✈️❤️ 🏁

Don't think I've ever seen you more pleased than when you found the fragrance in the amenities kit!

As an American, I don't think you realize how fast you cleared customs. You might have set a Guinness WR. I'm pleased to hear that even dealing with AVIS, you were in and out in 30 minutes. Shocked!!!!

I think he realised, thats what he talked about it so positively. It would be at least his 6th time in the US for F1

I don't think I've ever seen another youtube promote Qsuites as much as Kym. You definitely deserve a kick back from them mate!

as someone who loves f1 & airline experiences, i love your channel so much!

Absolutely loving your Videos Kym, loving the humor of the first class suite so good! Shoutout to all the effort you also do with the graphics to show the details of your plane, good stuff.

Even your non-F1 content is fire! Slick editing, soothing voice, and informative! Easy to live vicariously thru your cool job!

That was brilliant going around asking locals if they knew about formula 1. Hilarious reactions you should definitely try and do that more!

Thanks Kym, you are literally living my dreams...and I can relive them as many times as I like. Cheers.

Love the travel vlogs.. have a great time in Miami kym

6:21 very nice switch!

Quality content....loved the last poll

one of your best vlogs, ever! i was recently in northern portugal and toured the vineyard that produced the port on your flight, it’s quite small so what a surprise to see it on a qatar flight!

Another Great contribution Kym,thx👍

Absolute banger of a video today Kym!

I used to fly doh-Mia nearly yearly, absolutely love it

Never been this early to a video! As always, I love the travel videos as much as the F1 content and I am so excited for the Miami race!! Hopefully I’ll meet you there next season, if not sooner!! 🤞🔥👏

The production value just keeps getting better! Great job and keep up the good work!!

The Qatar Qsuits are quite addictive, the Diptyque 43 is such a great package for travelling, and that chicken burger looked magnificant!

Hi Kym , Love watching your videos. I'm trying out Qatar Q Suites in August & September this year ( Zandvoort & Monza Races ) . First time flying business class..... can't wait for the experience. Take care , Michael Melbourne.

You could do a video about all the airports you've been to around the world, and mark em down in a map. Might be quite interesting.

4:12 that was absolutely perfect😂😂😂

Kym --The Perfume Police That could be a Netflix special surely!

I've flown with qatar airways qsuite once for my jakarta to doha flight, and the experience was outstanding. Definitely recommended to all of the backpackers around the world. The flight attendant was really nice and the food and beverages were simply extraordinary. The lounge was perfect and theres alot of food options. The seats were really comfortable and theres alot of space to stretch our leg freely. I also got alot of privacy during the flight. But its really unforetunate to got a place in the middle aisle, not getting a chance to see the beauty of the flight from the window. I expected to fly an A350-900 XWB but eventually i realise that i would fly a 777-300ER. Its also an unfortunate that i cant continue my flight to athens with the Qsuite. Keep up the good work, qatar airways 👍

Time to wait for the outtakes again right at the end to witness Kym swearing at the camera 😂

7:57 the dude in the background on the right is from McLaren I’m pretty sure. I’ve seen him on a couple of videos Mclaren has made including that message to Carlos where they all spoke Italian.

6:22 that transition was great!

The fact those 30 didn’t know much about F1, if it all, shows how huge the market could be if cracked..ask nearly anyone in a city in the Uk and they could tell you something or a driver at a minimum

Another excellent video. Was that fellow photographer and equipment rescuer @f1sutton in the background of the initial shot. Also if going back through Doha there is a new Qatar lounge that has just opened - The Garden in the Orchard area. Similar access to Al Mourjan. Also new oneworld lounges nearby

Love your videos sir.

I love F1 but I also love travel KZread channels. I think I might actually prefer Kym the travel vlogger! 👍🏻 I definitely want to check out Qsuites! Edit: BTW, welcome back to the States! I’m one of those Americans that have been watching F1 for pushing two decades and didn’t just learn about the sport due to Netflix! I’ve been to a half dozen football games at Hard Rock so I really want to come see it configured for an F1 race! But those prices! 💰💰💰

Transition at 6:22 was SMOOTH!

I flew Qatar Airways from Manila to Doha and we had a medical emergency landing in Mumbai! We missed our flight to Killamjaro and had to overnight at the airport hotel. Hammad International is great airport.

Hi Kym, being a VIP member and an avid follower I really enjoy these videos. Not that I am expecting to travel in the near future but I was wondering if you could advise the following: I am an Aussie and drink beer only & are am an occasional spirit drinker. Can you advise what beers are available on the flights you take? I know Southern Comfort is your favourite but mine is Makers Mark - do they stock that.

Kym Illman, world traveler. These treks would be a hard slog for anybody half his age, and he makes it look so easy. Now all we need is somebody to dress up like Miami Vice characters... 😁

The rental car experience at Las Vegas will be "somewhat different" than at MIA. The car center is the old airport terminal, right next to the new one, but seemingly on another planet.

Kym, strange question... what make are your suitcases. I'm looking for new luggage, and thought about the miles yours must do. Cheers.

Have you ever tried compression socks while flying to help increase circulation and reduce swelling of the feet?

I love your videos, but Avis rental cars i wouldn’t use

How does the takeoff feels when facing backwards?

I landed in Miami airport in February; 2 hours and 15 minutes to get though passport control! Just what you need after a 10 hour flight in economy -.-

Do you ever watch the TV on board to kill time?. dont think ive seen a video on what type of selection they have.

Where do you get your music?

Living the life, love living thru urs. Inspiring. Question. Does formula one cover your travel expenses and other photographers? How many others are given such contracts, can you explain how your contracts work as freelancers or employees? Curious as a freelancer in film media.

Kym you may have already answered this how do you travel with your camera gear?

mr illman do you have to pay everytime for these flights by yourself or is there anything that f1 is paying?

Kym, why didn't you fly on the direct chartered Qatar flight from Baku to Miami? Saw a B777-300ER departing!

Hold up, 4 abreat q suites on a airbus a320? Im am confused?

It took me 2 hours to get through JFK. Why not get a taxi to Hilton as safety of driving after long flight

I guess Turkish Airlines didn't have good rates? There is an over-nighter from Baku to Miami via Istanbul (IST-MIA 00:20-06:00 or something like that). It's not better than Qatar, but at least you spend 4 less hours in the air and you don't have to leave Baku at some godawful hour.

Doha Airport is a bit expensive for my liking. Spent a few hours layover back in 2016, my jaw dropped when I saw how much I had to pay for Burger King...

Taxi was driving on LPG. I know. I do the same.

We learned two things about this video ... #1 I fully understand why driver hire private jets and #2 Its a fact that 99% of Americans don't give a sh@t about F1 yet they get 3 races a year more than any country in the world 😒😒
