Big Plane vs Little Plane (The Economics of Long-Haul Flights)

2016-No A380 orders in years
Meanwhile Emirates......

A350s are much better than 787s

I come from the future and I have a couple of things to say about the route wuhan to sfo and the Boeing 737 max....

If only they knew about the MAX issues

Liar

This was the last video without any sponsorships…

Nairobi to Paris 🙌🏽

And now we have the a321neo LR

The 737 Max is gonna be awesome! I hope nothing terrible happens to mess it up!

"Smaller destinations" - Tokyo, Madrid, London 😂

Bradley International Airport, the international airport which services the Hartford and the surrounding region, is located in Windsor Locks, CT, not Hartford.

Watching this video 6 years later with two crashes in mind...

Anyone from Chennai

The A380 seats are the most uncomfortable seats I've ever experienced on the plane. You would think knowing that these jumbo jets would have the longest flights and would need to have a very comfortable seat since the passenger would need to be seated for so long.

Maaan. Watching this again and seeing how Boeing sacrificed quality and safety for profit is sad. I'm talking about the MAX situation a while ago.

What an idiotic start : "If you have been alive..."

Hehehe 737 max will be great they said.

aged like milk

The amount of people on ramp doesn't necessarily increase. Generally widebodies will get 5 people, and narrowbodies will get 3. At least that's how it is at the airline I work for

Even if the Airbus A380 fails, it's still a cool airplane.

Wuhan to San Francisco
737 max

We all know how the 737 max turned out :(

I mean now the Airbus A350-1000 and Boeing 777x are expected to basically take over the long haul markets with them having a lot larger range without the need to stop so they're expected to become cheaper.

Interesting. I wonder if things have changed in the 6 years since you made this video? Well, I've started watching all your videos one by one from the beginning, so if you've made any more videos along these lines, I guess I'll come to them 🙂

I've been alive for 10 Years now

Man, I hate long haul flights on smaller planes, like the a319. I pay for a real business class, not a seat that reclines 5 mm more than coach.

“With the new 737 Max, we can fly anywhere!” 😂😂😂

“whats even more exciting is the upcoming 737 max”

rip

Man this video aged like milk, Alot has Changed

"The A380 is a failure"
Mate. Calm down

The real crazy thing is that the other day I went on a transatlantic flight on a 737, once planes that small can fly that far then I don’t think there would be many routes where large planes are necessary.

If you fly a plane so high do you know where they go? SPPPPPPAAAAAACEEEEEE

You should do one about chartering aircraft. Like how the British PM used to charter a BA 747 and how football tease hire Flybe Q400s etc.

So many things in this video aged very poorly

Has there ever been a flight from Cardiff Wales to the United States? My Welsh friend claims to have flown one but I can’t find any historical evidence of one existing. Also, has there ever been one from Tiranë Albania to the United States. Another friend claims to have flown that. Thank you all.

Is someone who lives in Hartford I would drive 45 minutes to Boston lol

carboard box

Wuhan to San Francisco… lol we all know how that went.

The xenophobic polo biophysically fix because sphynx secondly scream upon a wise music. noisy, steady instrument

Update: the 737 max was kind of a failure at the begin of it's career.
I'm from 2022
5 years ahead of when this video was made.

This aged well

Warsaw-Beijing? It's hard to find a flight from Paris-Beijing

“Wuhan, China to San Francisco”
“What’s even more exciting for customers is the 737 MAX”

Aged like Milk

London to Chennai is not unpopular. The amount of Indians in both the UK and US is underappreciated. People from the US and Canada fly to either Dubai, Doha, Amsterdam, Paris or London when flying to India (usually)

Aer lingus fly Boston to Shannon also it’s the British and Irish isles
