I flew on Hot Lips in March 2007 back from Orlando to Gatwick..I stayed awake all night watching films and finally fell asleep about five minutes before landing. When we touched tarmac I awoke and assumed we'd crashed X-D I still remember the sunburst out the window when I opened the blind many hours over the ocean. Gorgeous.

I absolutely loved this video. Such a non pretentious and honest account. Thank you for sharing

It's my pleasure, glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching!

The last time I flew with the jumbo was in 2019 when I flew on one from Manchester to Orlando

On the same flight in 14 days, first time travelling alone at 18, great video!

I did this flight. I was disappointed with the amount of space we had...Except I was happy that they have us blankets like the last 3 times I have done this flight!

@Aviationz

I believe the space isn't the greatest in the standard seats. However, I would recommend picking the extra legroom seats as shown in this video, for me -being 6ft- I found the rather comfortable and spacious. Yes, I love the little things they give you such as the blanket. Makes you feel at home haha. Thanks for watching!

Very comfy plane we did it from hrow to San Fran 🏍🏍

Excellent video, setting off to Orlando in 7 days but taking the virgin a330 to Atlanta and then transferring via delta for the rest of the journey.

i was on it yesterday from orlando back to manchester

@Aviationz

6 жыл бұрын

Ah, that must be why! Because of the jet stream's direction (West to East over America) you go about 100Kts (115mph) faster due to the strong winds pushing your aircraft when travelling in that direction and if you travel in the other direction, the opposite happens :) I hoped you enjoyed your experience in Orlando!

You need a lot of likes and subs I subbed and liked!

Sorry but the departure Terminal was wrong...it's Terminal 2 at Manchester...VS are at Terminal 3 at Heathrow; also VS 076 is the return flight, so this would be either VS 073 or VS 075

was your seat an 'extra legroom' row? just wondering if you thought they were worth the £

@Aviationz

7 жыл бұрын

yes, these seats were the extra legroom seats, I cant properly judge the difference between these seats and normal seats as i have not yet flown in the normal seats but from seeing some normal seats in the middle, it looks like it is nearly 2x the leg space which is essential when flying long haul, so i would recommend them :) Thanks for watching!

Ugh can’t wait for this I’m going on 6 th of July but looking at the wing flex and the camera wobble makes me uneasy

@Aviationz

5 жыл бұрын

Haha, dont worry mate. The camera wobble is from me holding it and nothing else, as my camera weighs alot, and therefore i can't attach it to anything. Also, my arm was pretty much unusable for an hour or so after filming this. As for the wing flex, all planes are designed to flex their wings at least a little, nothing wrong with it at all. Its just how they're built. Apart from this explanation, I hope you enjoy your time there! I still remember the trip fondly.

@bluenotgreenbluehoneyuunde4792

Along with the wing flex they are designed like that to get rid of as much turbulence as they can if they didnt wobble the whole cabin would be shook

@visionist7

3 жыл бұрын

When the tested the 767 wing flex in the 80s they actually got the wingtips to touch together above the cabin without the wings snapping I believe. No wonder the 767 did so much damage on 9/11

That’s terminal 2 not terminal 3

In that seat in just a few weeks, how did u find the extra bit of legroom?
