Hi, Josh. I really like your videos. As I am Japanese, I will give you a tip. By the Japanese privacy Law, you can't take or videotape other people's face without their consent. You must blurr their face. I'm sure you want to avoid any troubles. By the way, some airlines don't dim the lights for the cabin crews to see what's going on the cabin. That is also the safety procedure from another perspective.

It’s not a regulation, it’s a standard safety measure everywhere else.

I'm glad you explained the reasoning for dimming the cabin lights. I did not know this was actually a safety precaution.

Hi Josh, cabin crew here, it depends mostly where Peach Airlines has its AOC registration because they will follow that country's rules and regulations. So either they screwed up or this is their SOP.

Joah, it looked like you needed a hug as u were walking off the plane. I'm here for u man. Great video, as always!

I flew with All Nippon Airways from NRT to KUL on early December 2019 and the same case happened. They didn’t dimmed the light for take off and landing too.

I like it when Josh said he watched Sailormoon when he was a kid. Makes me feel he is very relatable 🤗 Safe flights Josh and thanks for the all the reviews 🙏

Just as an information: On domestic Japanese flights (where not the FAA (American Federal Aviation Administration) is setting the framework but the JCAB (Japan Civil Aviation Bureau)) it is not required by law to dim the lights during take off and landing. It depends on each airline whether to dim the lights or not. So for example JAL (and also other JAL Group Airlines) are dimming the lights but ANA (and their group Airlines f.e. Peach) are not.

The exterior and interior looks very similar to Wizz Air planes don’t you think?

From what I know it is not required by Japanese law to turn off the lights during takeoff. I know JAL and Jetstar Japan dims the lights during night takeoff and landing and ANA and Peach chooses not to dim the lights. Since Peach is partially owned by ANA, I would assume this isn't just a mistake by the cabin crew but rather their policy. Although I'm not completely sure, I think ANA once said that they choose not to dim the lights because turning them off might scare or frighten the passengers. Nonetheless it's a pretty dated concept and I definitely think they should change it.

Wow, learned something new today, thanks Josh

Thanks, Josh, for shedding a light (no pun intended): It's not so much that you can't see (and thus avoid) debris on the ground once you've evacuated, it's rather that people just automatically stop moving forward when they can't see what's ahead of them. If you'd be about to enter a flight of stairs but not seeing the actual stairs, you'd stop moving and gradually and slowly "feel" your way one step at a time until your eyes have adopted to the darkness and resume feeding visual information again. That's just our instincts and most of us cant't do anything about it even if we knew it in advance. There is emercency lighting in the plane but once you've made it to the chute and took the ride, you're likely to stop where you end up and risk being badly hurt by the person sliding down the slide behind you - while you've should have been clearing that space immediately in the first place. What you potentially get in a case like this is a pile of people blocking the escape area for avoidable reasons on otherwise safe ground. That's why they dim cabin lights during T/O and landings, be it during daylight or night operations, and also why you'd try to get the first one down to be brave enough to stay and shove all the passengers that follow out of the way and away from the aircraft for that matter. Edit: Typo.

It appears that, from previous comments, that it’s not Peach Aviation’s standard operating procedure to dim (or to turn off) cabin lights during take off / landing even though this is pretty much an industry standard practice. As a current flight attendant, I can say that in an emergency evacuation, day or night, one of the things we are instructed to do is set cabin lights to bright... Now, I don’t know what’s more of a shock during a night time emergency: cabin lights dim/off during take off/landing, emergency evacuation occurs, cabin lights to bright then you jump out into the dark OR cabin lights on, emergency evacuation occurs then jump out into the dark (cabin lights are already on)... Evacuation may be quicker with the latter since vision does not have to adjust and passengers can immediately focus on getting out of aircraft... Just a thought...

I had this twice on a BA flight to LCY recently.

Qantas flights do not shut off lights during night t/o and landings. The logic proven is that lights on in the cabin makes passengers more awake and alert during take off and landing. Statistically more people fall asleep especially during night take offs and landings when lights are off. You want full pax attention including safety video demo too vs more than half of the pax sleeping. Crew members can also see pax Australia and also Japan law does not regulate light off on.

8:50 nice piece of information, i was always wondering why they turn the lights off before landing in the dark, now i know

I fully agree with the safety protocol which you mentioned during landing of the flight. Whenever I have travelled, cabin crew always make all passengers to open shades of all windows during landing. Any safety protocol should not be neglected or ignored at all.

Josh, I like your videos and I agree with you about safety. My father worked in aviation and you followed the procedures to the letter for two reasons: 1: in case of the "big what if", and; 2: to keep laxness from setting in and have standards fall until disaster strikes. Aircraft can be very unforgiving devices in inexperienced hands.

Hi Josh! Cabin crew here from Australia. Definitely something to be concerned about and you’re not being dramatic at all. Hopefully this was just a one off forgetfulness of the crew and not a company procedure to keep the lights on. Out of interest did they dim the lights for take off? I know it was still light outside but we dim ours for take off and landing regardless of the time of day.

You are correct. I totally agree.

They say airline trade does aren’t usually just one thing, but a collection of small things they add up. Dimming the lights may seem like a small thing, but it really can save lives when you have some other emergency going on.

Had similar experience in my previous flight.. I know it was not a red eye one, but I thought at first it is a safety procedure regardless outside brightness.. but just correct me if I'm wrong..

Ive flown on United in the USA both times at night and both times they left the cavin lights on

Just saw this video after a year. Turning off lights at night for take off and landing is most likely not required by Japanese regulations. The airline registered in the country will simply follow what their regulators told them to do. I have not flown Peach but I have flown ANA many times, on both international and domestic. I don't recall ANA turning off lights for either take off or landing at night for either international or domestic flights. There was once I was flying from Haneda to Hong Kong on ANA 767-300, departing Haneda at 1am and arriving at Hong Kong at 5am. Obviously the light was off for most of the flight for passengers to sleep. I remember they actually turned ON the light when landing. So I would not even rule out that it may be a Japanese regulatory requirement to have lights on.

Horrible experience.

Absolutely true!!! Simple as that

Just curious - how did the cabin crew respond when you ask them about this? What reason did they give for not dimming the lights?

ANA doesnt do it..so as a subsidiary..not surprised Peach doesnt either

I flew with Uzbekistan on their 767 and also they did the same, didn't dim the cabin light lol

wait! Aeroflot and ANA also did not dim down the lights; other airlines do it like that too

It is a common mis-conception to think that every jurisdiction adhere to the lightout on take off / landing principle at night. That is simply not true, a good example is Japan and Thailand, both country does not follow that rules. (Note: this is a very common mis-conception for aviation blogger or KZreadr or even people who works in the industry who only fly domestically and not internationally). There are two side of the argument of which is "better", but in reality there are no definite answer. As it has been pointed out by a lot of people, the common understanding for dimming the lights are for eye adjustment, but it is important to note that the eye adjustment are not for you to get off the airplane, rather it is for you once you are outside of the airplane. During evcuation, all the exit and slides are very brightly lit and this is by design by the airplane manufacturer (in fact there is a flood light that illuminate the whole slide once it is deployed). The dimming of the light is really for once you have gotten on the ground. Or in situation where there is a complete power outage on the plane (which is rare). On the other hand, keeping the light on has their own advantage. By keeping the light on, you are forcing the passenger to be more alert and less passenger is likely to be asleep. And therefore during an emergency evacuation, there is a higher chance that your passenger will have a faster responds time. Rather then someone who just got woken up by the cabin crew shouting at them for evcuation.

Apart from the lights situation, was the rest of the flight alright / would you fly them again?

It takes the human eye 30 min to adjust and gain optimum "night vision" whilst that same "night vision" will be lost if 1 single light source catches your eye for a couple of seconds. This is straight out of my PPL human performance theory, so realistically dimming the cabin lights won't do you any good in case of an emergency.

I flew Air DO ( another Japan LCC ) last month and they had the lights on the whole time as well. I'm starting to guess that it may not be a required practice here. Long story short, if there was a regulation, every airline would follow them to a T in Japan, so I'm guessing it's not an airline issue but a national regulatory issue here.

Can't believe that you, a German, missed the opportunity to comment on Japanese trains!

I think it's a good thing you point that out... for the crew it's just a minor effort to dimm the lights at takeoff and landing but it can be vital, just as you've pointed out so there's no excuse for negligence... Kind of surprising to see that on a Japanese airline though... Normally Japanese people and companies are very thorough when it comes to that kind of safety guidelines... e.g. Japanese traindrivers are obligated to point at any signs or signals on their way while driving and as far as I can remember I've never seen one not doing that... It looks kind of funny at first but when you understand the thought-process behind it, it kind of makes a lot of sense...

I would say when it comes to safety, it's better to be safe than sorry!

Review Tiger airlines and Jetstar in Australia!

Josh...it is very concerning that they didn't dim the lights. Everything you said is totally correct. I would address this with the airline. I used to be in the industry, and once, I was on a flight years ago, and they put luggage blocking the emergency exit. One of the people I was traveling with, said if they didn't correct the situation immediately, she wanted to disembark and would report it to the FAA. My flight was a flight attendant. The crew did as she said, and we took off. That airline is still in business. I won't mention who it was. My point is sometimes they know better but are being lazy or they think passengers won't realize. Very sad.
