Flying with Scoot as “Air-pprentice” - What Passengers Don’t See!

[@DominicLotters]

I flew on Scoot from Sydney to Singapore. Their service levels were on par or better than a full service carrier. One of the crew saw that my 8 year old daughter was fascinated by what they were doing, so they asked if they could take her out to the galley and give her a bit of a tour. After 30 minutes went by, I got up to go and find her only to discover 4 of the crew doing her hair to match theirs before they got her to help out as though she was part of the team. Next minute, she’s walking down the aisle being helpful! She was so happy and the crew were genuinely spectacular. That was years ago now and she still talks about it.

thanks for sharing Regarding Scoot economy flight booking: 1. can we carry some food items? 2. is bagpack (personal item bag) also included in the weight allowance? OR both the luggage/cabin trolley bag and bagpack/personal item bag considered in weight allowance? 3. It is my first flight. Are the bags weighed when we have to board the flight or early on so that after weighing we can eat something at the airport and, probably, buy some food items to take with us on the flight?

Scoot is by far the worst airline I’ve ever flown. And I’ve flown some really dodgy ones : SpiceJet, Nok Air, Air Asia

[@edward88881]

I certainly gained a greater appreciation for flight attendants on these long haul flights. They work hard, fill many responsibilities, it seems exhausting, and they need to smile through it all. The Lead Flight Attendant, Bubu, really showed professionalism throughout.

Great video! Fun and informative. Much respect to the crew who make our flights as safe and pleasant as they can.

[@roccosound8825]

I have flown with Scoot twice and they were fantastic. In addition staff at Changi airport were also super nice asking me how things were going and did I enjoy my flight. All up going to/or coming from Singapore with Scoot is always going to be nice.

Another great video Sam. What an opportunity for you to be a “crewmember” for a day. So many of us are unfamiliar with Scoot and their operation but thanks to you and this channel I would be very much inclined to book with Scoot. Their service and product along with passenger testimonials seals the deal for me. Thank you again for what you’re doing for aviation.

[@hendraahinsetiawan2929]

My high respects to flight attendances, air crews, all the peoples "behind the screen" in aviation industries. Kudos to all of them. Salute to Scoot Airline, looks like they are having a better service-standard now, looks like everything's better, coz always remember that Scoot is only a "budget airline" not a "full service" one. Keep it up, Scoot Airline. And, last but not least, as always, thank you for a "Five-Star" footage, Sam. "Terimakasih dan semangat selalu".

[@richardmiyasaka2635]

Sam, all respects to you! You got game, putting yourself out, going all in, and doing the job well!

[@robbysebala5389]

Hey, Sam! You did GREAT! The main thing is that you kept smiling and exercised patience and high hospitality even though your back started hurting a bit. This is the kind of professional performance that makes customers keep coming back even though they do not speak the same languages as you. The smile and warmth are the universal language, right? Keep on rockin' in flight, Sam! :-)

[@xinning4405]

what a refreshing way to capture your flight experience from a crew’s POV Sam!

[@LEARNINGCHORDS]

MY REVIEW: Hi Sam. I met you at Clutter Park last time you were there. This video is incredible. THE audio is loud, and level and clear and perfect from start to finish. Everyone has excellent audio. The multiple cameras was great. From the cams in the kitchen to inside and outside the simulator. Cams in the cockpit watching the crew and cams watching the runway and landing and controls. Cams in the cabin with many different angles. Incredible editing and transitions. The flight crew speaking with you like you were a co-worker and friend. This was like a Hollywood production. I loved the humanity of it all. I felt connected to the staff and the flight. The feelings and emotions you expressed while working- from fun to tired, to sore back.. Very human and real. With a live shoot like this, there is no way to script this, but it was perfect from start to finish. THE PR gained from this video will be powerful. Anyone watching this video would want to fly Singapore. You made them proud. The warmth and kindness and stunning beauty of the staff really comes through. I felt appreciation and a connection to all the flight crew. This was impressive and professional.... Nothing self serving or ego about this- Just darn good production and a video of perfection. Now I understand why doors open for you and you are given the access you get. Thanks for sharing this with the viewers... thank you Flight crew and Singapore airlines...
