VUELING - how good is low cost flying in Spain?

[@BlakeEdgington]

A very quick flight for this review, let me know what you think and subscribe!

[@WylieWestie]

One of the better flight reviews I've seen. Good combination of talking, music, not too much background noise with all the relevant information. I'll be flying with them in a few weeks and good to check out what it's like in advance so I know what to expect and how much room I will have under the seat!

[@BlakeEdgington]

Thanks for watching.

[@OnBoardHD]

Just a perfect video. Congratulations. I enjoyed it a lot. I've never been in Menorca airport and I could not imagine it like this. It looks really nice, specially the airside. Those huge clouds during flight were really beautiful. Keep improving the videos. You are making an amazing good work. By the way, the pictures of that business class flight on the A346 looked amazing!! I want to watch that video!! 😀😀 Wish you a nice weekend! Greetings from East Midlands! 😎✈

[@BlakeEdgington]

The airport surprised me too, much better than I expected. I can’t wait to share the A340 trip, should be out late July. How is the training going and more importantly, when am I reviewing your flights?

[@OnBoardHD]

@@BlakeEdgington Great! So looking forward to it! :) The training is going pretty well, I'm finishing ground school and starting the simulator in 1 week and everything is going great so far. I expect to be in the line in 2 months or so :)))

[@shaunpierce4174]

Had my one and only flight with Vueling last year and was very impressed with them

[@BlakeEdgington]

Certainly not a bad airline and I would choose Vueling over Iberia Express any day.

[@awntimestwo7995]

Quality report Blake, never flown on vueling but would love too soon

[@BlakeEdgington]

With the fares they offer it’s super value.

[@laurencedavies9003]

Great quality report as always ;)

[@BlakeEdgington]

Thanks Laurie and as I said in the video, thanks for you generous support.

[@craigwillis3372]

Another quality report Blake...well done mate!!

[@BlakeEdgington]

Thanks Craig, glad that you enjoyed it.

[@ericmolina778]

Great video Blake, I've always flown with Vueling and all my experiences were very positive with this company, they are my first and favourite option. I recommend this airline to everyone. I am from Barcelona and I have a special "feeling" with this Spanish airline hehehe. Once again, great video!

[@BlakeEdgington]

Not sure that I would rate Vueling as a favourite airline of mine but certainly a decent low cost carrier. Thanks for watching.

[@BradleyPennyAviation]

Great Video 👍🏻✈️

[@BlakeEdgington]

Thanks 🙏

[@Deady2012]

Great vid as usual!

[@BlakeEdgington]

Cheers buddy.

[@AviationFDH]

Fantastic flight report mate. I thought Menorca Airport is old and outdated but after seeing this video, I really like this Airport due to the many shops etc. The prices of Vueling are really good and in my opinion they are better than Ryanair. Thanks for sharing and have a nice weekend

[@BlakeEdgington]

Honestly I had the same assumption and was pleasantly surprised by the terminal.

[@global_flyer]

Nice video mate!

[@BlakeEdgington]

Always aiming to please 👍

[@TJones-gj2fi]

Flew with them first time this year no issues flights on time good experience overall…

[@cardiffflyer]

Menorca airport looked nice! Surprised it only is used by 3.4 million people a year, I'd have thought it would be busier. The legroom for the extra legroom seats is much better than that. Great video once again!

[@BlakeEdgington]

I think that I would definitely spring for extra legroom next time.

[@cardiffflyer]

@@BlakeEdgington I'd recommend it!

[@jamesbarlow7928]

I got stuck in Mahon airport for nearly 14 hours when I was a kid! We then ended up flying to Manchester when we should have flown to Leeds, it was first come first served to the plane and my dad nearly missed getting on. Unbelievably strange experience and can’t see how it happened as it was only 15 years ago 😂

[@BlakeEdgington]

Wow that’s a bad day for sure. I think 14 hours there would drive me nuts no matter how much I like it.

[@juliensvideography]

very nice video

[@BlakeEdgington]

Thanks for watching as always.

[@djk2509]

A you were there my flight back to Stansted we boarded at gate 7 wow we didn't have an air bridge we had a small bus took us to out titan aircraft.

[@BlakeEdgington]

Small world! I hope that you had a good flight.

[@anthonybuckley5872]

Nice report Blake,I like your videos as they are what most of us can afford,and not reaching for the stars in 1st class.I have used Vueling many times and have always been happy with them. Residents living in Balearic Islands or Canarias benefit from a 75% discount off fares ,(Not just Vueling,Iberia/IB express/Ryanair/Air Europa/Norwegian too),as the Government tell us we HAVE to take a flight,or a ferry,its not just for pleasure,so they subsidise the fare,providing that your final destination is in Spain. Eg: LPA_IBZ(via BCN),2 flights,but as final destination is still in Spain,both flights are discounted.

[@BlakeEdgington]

Anthony that is very interesting. I had absolutely no idea and what a great system! Why do the government say that you have to take a flight?

[@anthonybuckley5872]

@@BlakeEdgington Hahaha,I think i didnt explain it well. It not that the government oblige us to take a flight.If for example someone living in Barcelona wants to go Madrid,then they have the option to fly,take the train or coach or drive. For me living in Gran Canaria,I dont have those options .To go to Madrid. I HAVE to fly. So for that reason the government subsidise(75%),of the price of the ticket. In December last year I went on a return flight with Ryanair,to Valencia,at the subsidised price of just 10,49 euros.

[@BlakeEdgington]

That makes much more sense!

[@brianstockport]

@@BlakeEdgington I would imagine that it's a little difficult to walk or drive.

[@BlakeEdgington]

Well of course.

[@marknagle1912]

like it blake

[@BlakeEdgington]

Glad to hear it Dennis.

[@PeekPerfomance]

Good report. Have never seen a Vueling report so it was nice to se someone report it. Looks like a nice Company wich i hope to fly. I am 170cm tall and i need to see if i need an extra legroom seet if i decide to travel with them. Have a good Wekend Blake 😊

[@BlakeEdgington]

I would certainly give the extra legroom seat a try if it was me. Thanks for watching.

[@samuelknight3826]

Always a shame if the flight deck don't speak to the passengers, just nice to know what's happening. I'm doing MAH at the end of this month, the airport looks good! to and from BHX, with you guessed it TC! Are the Thomas Cook desks in the same area that was shown on the video?

[@BlakeEdgington]

You are flying Thomas Cook? I would never have guessed 😂. Yes the desks are in the main check in hall. Small and lovely airport so I am sure you will enjoy it.

[@nudgenudgewinkwink3212]

Every airport I fly out to is nearly always better and more modern than the one I left in the U.K its a crying shame.

[@BlakeEdgington]

I’m with you on that one. Haven’t been for a while but I love Düsseldorf.

[@SchneiderMarcel]

Blake Edgington - Airborne I fly regularly between Düsseldorf and Birmingham. DUS is a lot better than BHX...

[@rubenkober]

Do you know the exact date of travel

[@BlakeEdgington]

Err, of course. I was there 😂

[@rubenkober]

I did LGW-MAH on the 4th May and MAH-LGW on the 11th May

[@BlakeEdgington]

Ah I see. My flight was on the 17th.

[@janepearson2107]

Just watching back on your videos I'm board and this is fun edit: new video on my channel in 26 mins if possible

[@BlakeEdgington]

Thanks for watching.

[@Timstravels01]

Excellent review Blake. Another plus for Vueling is that you can collect Avios points. Very unusual for a low cost airline.

[@BlakeEdgington]

Correct, I am not much of a points person myself but certainly a plus.

[@ScarletCroatia]

Menorca is beautiful, but if I may advise - don't fly Vueling if you have any other choice!!! If you have to fly, don't put your luggage in the hold! They've boarded a couple of flights this week without people's luggage and it is showing to be an absolute nightmare to try to get to it. Terrible customer service, not offering any actual help, just reciting standard phrases! It's been 4 days now, nobody on the flight has been able to find out anything about their luggage. Since they were blaming the ground staff for not boarding the luggage, the problem is actually on them not paying the staff/airport - and this is what you get with cheap airlines! And the fool's on us twice, because we bought expensive tickets through BA (hoping for good service), completely missing the "Operated by Vueling" sign. Never again!

[@pjmackey373]

FIRST

[@BlakeEdgington]

Congratulations 👍

[@lemonjucie9862]

Does he profit frome these videos? he spends about 200 $ or more on the flights then he just gets about 1-5 K views

[@BlakeEdgington]

I do it for the enjoyment.
