A Perfect Flight Onboard CATHAY PACIFIC A350 Economy Class

[@Michael-B26]

Having now seen a review without commentary makes me realise how much your voiceover makes your videos unique. It’s definitely part of your charm. I’d still watch them if they changed to this format but would much prefer your relaxing commentary :)

[@graemeread5368]

1000% agree!

[@geraldsnyder6482]

Jayden, Jayden....your sparkling commentary is what's sets your videos apart. Without the voice over it is the same as the other 1,000 KZbin travel vlogs😢😢😢

[@graemeread5368]

You said what I wanted to say!!!!

[@1122-f3c]

My favourite flight report ... two of my favourite cities, my favourite ( arabica ) coffee and really like the little details you focus on such as wingtips, or flaps ... perfect !!!! :)

[@JaydenWong]

Glad you enjoyed it!😁

[@NewYorkAviation]

Love it Jayden. So peaceful and relaxing!

[@JaydenWong]

thanks for the inspiration 😆😁

[@sunnyhuang8888]

A350 is always so smooth. Cathay has some pretty nice flight attendants, last time I sat in the back and had a blast chatting with the Hong Kong crew during their break, really made the time fly by.

[@JaydenWong]

Love that! You can tell they’re genuinely nice when they’re up for a great chat!

[@aviation405]

Great review again Jayden, I didn’t mind the no commentary but I also think your commentary on every flight is really good. Anyways another great video

[@JaydenWong]

moving on I will still do commentary. For flights that I do all the time like domestic Australia, BA Euro Traveller and Cathay economy, I will do no commentary (because otherwise I just don't film them anymore) 🤣

Nice I just took Cathay Singapore to Hong Kong and it was 10/10!

[@mcznlf]

Agreed

[@jimbo6059]

Some of that boarding music was from the Cathay Pacific adverts of the 1980s in the UK, very retro. It is very good that you get a full ,real service on a flight that short as well. Good little vid.

[@JaydenWong]

Wow that I wouldn’t have known! Thanks for sharing :)

[@anthonywalsh2164]

Yes, great retro vibe - they just need to paint some planes in the cucumber sandwich livery to complete the feel.

[@mba0005]

Nice video, Jayden. Looks like you had a great flight. This video definitely had a different feel than your usual videos. I think I like your commentary better. Gives me more insight than just from what I’m seeing in the video alone. Hope you had a great time in Singapore!

[@stanian2]

There are a lot of flight vloggers out there and most just put text on the video, your voice overs were what set you apart from all the others and for me make the video's more interesting. You can tell a lot by the tone of people's voice. Still great content though. That seat next to you 60A was in was one that I was in on MH1 LHR to KL, loads of legroom but kept banging my head when going to the bathroom. It was 27A though, weird numbering now on some airlines, with whole batches of numbers missed out.

[@JaydenWong]

hiya! Appreciate your comment. Rest assured this is only a one-off, and I will only do this again if it's an aircraft type and cabin that I have covered previously and recently. Next video is BA London City to Zurich + vlog of Zurich and Switzerland, hope you'll enjoy! CX economy always starts at row 39 (except for A321neo as it was intended for Cathay Dragon). This is for consistency for the mixed fleet crew and why 39? I don't know, probably the now retired 747-400 had up to 39 rows of first, business and premium. Just guessing haha

[@masonryjoe]

I gladly pay about 500 more than to fly air Canada because Cathay is light years better in staff, service , food and nicer planes, Thank Cathay Airways !!!

[@graemeread5368]

I will always cherish this video as we get to hear a complete coherent sentence from 6'4". Also I too am interested in fonts. Also I wondered if there was a hidden clue in 6'4"'s sentence. Finally my flatmate says Jayden has the most incredible smile which he can turn on and off in an instant 😂

[@jamessayers4046]

Another great trip report JW! Found your new format "relaxing"! Flight looked great, especially the full meal, and take that as you SQ, but also QF! Love Singapore, great place to visit for a holiday, I have also worked there, that's so different to working in Australia or New Zealand, where we work to live, Singapore, like most parts of Asia, you live to work! I found some local food centres there (where the locals eat) so cheap and flavourful! Looking forward to your next vlog, keep up the great work!

[@JaydenWong]

Glad you enjoyed this video! Haha this reminds me of the Netflix show Emily in Paris. There was a quote saying in the US you live to work but in France you work to live. It’s absolutely true for most, it’s ingrained in your culture. We went to the Newton night market during this trip :) Thanks James!

Great video Jayden! I flew the a350-900 economy from Hong Kong to Sydney and slept the whole time between meals so a comfy seat, also the meals and entertainment are just phenomenal, however I would say the seat felt a bit narrow with a large gap between each one!

[@JaydenWong]

I definitely notice the gap when I was filming! It is very noticeable. They’ve closed the gap a little on the A350-1000 so slightly wider seats for that reason. Thanks Oscar!

Although your voiceover and narration are some of the best parts of your vlogs, this is a nice option every so often. It may give you a break from having to sit in front of the mic 4 hours a day. You did a great job with the captions and font. It kept me glued so I didn't miss anything. Nice capture of the KLM at 18:57 ! 🏳‍⚧

[@barcafan9025]

Another great trip report, as usual, and awesome videography! One thing I want to point out is that the headrest on the A350-900 has a feature which not many people tend to know about or use, you can fold the 'wings' of the headrest outwards, opposite to the way which you demonstrated it. It is a cool and comfortable feature imo, that not many people utilise properly, so it would be cool to see you demo that in your next CX A359 flight review!

[@JaydenWong]

YES!!! I don’t know if they changed it or maybe I was dumb, I couldn’t do it?? I’ll try again next week, I have another CX A359 flight HK to Singapore

Hello Jayden. The ambient audio was different. Rather nice. Trip report: Flying from Bangkok to Singapore with 6'4. At Bangkok airport you can find bathrooms 🚽 or prayer rooms 🧎🏼. There was food, lounge but no shower there. The plane was a jet with two engines. We ate on the plane and went to the bathroom. It is smaller than regular bathroom's. In Singapore there was some carpet that my roll- along didn't really like. A friend picked us up. He made noises while driving, like he was scared. We stayed at The Vertigo Hotel.

It's worth an attempt to do it (nearly) without any voice-over, but of cause at several takes your comments are substantially missing. Not everything opens up visually, what you are demonstrating just at the loo, where (conversely) the most things you explained, are visible. 😄There, you seemingly do not trust your camera eye which catches every detail - as always. Subtitles may be an alternative, but not always I can read that fast. 😉 Can you explain a little bit further in detail why you do no more hotel reviews? To have a discounted stay does not make the hotel better or worse. E.g. a good location is a good location and a small room is a small room. So it simply could be helpful, what kind of room you are in: standard, superior or whatever and other facts, without rating them.

[@JaydenWong]

Haha when I was doing the recording I didn't know I wasn't going to not do voiceover hence the recording in the plane loo. There are rules when it comes to staff discounts, you are not allowed to make "substantial" comments online. Also I would not want to risk my friend's job haha.
