I actually lived in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in the early 1980's- literally across from the airport, in a little German compound. My father worked in the computer department of a US construction company. It was really an awesome experience, and of course we flew in to and out of King Abdulaziz International all the time. Every time I watch a KZbinr fly in and out of Jeddah, I get a little touch of nostalgia and deja vu.

Oh Yeah, I flew with Saudia back in December 1999, for a religious trip. From LHR to JED. And that time the food was very good, but they had the old airbus A330-200 which needed renovating and the cabin crew could have been more attentive and personable considering I was flying Business class. However, I flew Etihad's business class in April 2011 from NRT to AUH and they were utter SHIT. The food was AWFUL. They just reheated everything and the taste was terrible, unfortunately I had the mezze and the next day I had diarrhea Thanks Etihad! And they were flying the old A330-300 which were uncomfortable and the IFE didn't even work. The flight attendants were extremely rude and unprofessional. One female flight attendant was yelling at an Arabic lady for going to the toilet during turbulence. That pious 50 years old lady didn't even speak English. So, well done Etihad for being the WORST airline in the world. Yelling at a passenger in a language which she didn't even understand! So, all Etihad needs to do now is have a few drunks flight attendants and pilots like Japan airlines and Virgin Atlantic and they will officially be the Worst airline the world!

Hi Mr.Noel, I am from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and I’m really happy that you came to Jeddah!!! I wanted to tell you that the new terminal in Jeddah airport has opened and it’s amazing according to the rubbish old one, you really have to come and see it! It’s super cool and has a aquarium inside Sam Chui actually filmed it, you can see the video I went to it about 3 months ago when I was flying a domestic flight from Jeddah to Abha and back It was an amazing experience And the new Saudi Airlines Al Fursan lounge is really better than the old one that you visited I wish you had fun in your visit here in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 And I have a (FACT) that it’s Arabic coffee not Arabic tea 🤗❤️ just corrected I Undoubtedly gave it a huge like 👍❤️ Thanks for filming this iconic review and bye bye 👋 Stay safe Greetings from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦☺️😊🤗❤️👍😂

** NOEL ** - Top Camera tip (from a pro) - when you encounter indoor LED lighting that rolls and flickers, switch the camera from PAL (UK electric frequency 50Hz) to NTSC (USA 60Hz Mains Electric) and alter the frame rate to UK 50 frames per second and shutter of 1/100th second, and USA 60 frames per second and 1/120th second shutter. This matches up the camera sensor refresh rate to that of the local electric frequency and stops the flickers. ;)

I have been using Saudia the past two years the get to Skyteam gold with their amazing fares. I flew several of their aircraft in their fleet (A320 A330 B777-300 B777-300ER and 787) their service is developing so well (unlike my grammar in this comment) and I have started to look for a good Saudia fare whenever I want to go Asia. I really hope the new Jeddah terminal will open soon because I have had 5 layovers there in that awfull lounge especially compared to the one in Riyadh. Btw I love your videos Noel because of you approach to reviewing products and mixing business and economy. It makes your channel a go to place to look up what you actually can expect on certain airlines keep it up!

Saudia is one of my favourite airlines in the world. The crew is nearly always patient, all smiles, helpfull and friemdly. The planes are always clean and their planes are always new. Plus all planes are equiped with plenty entertainment system. Finally the food is in great proprortion but most importantly always delicious. Used to travel on it two times yealry out od Riyadh. But pre corona even treid them out of jeddah on a long haul to malaysia and it was just as good as it was before. I cannot wait when travel resumes again and international travel and borders open. Cannot wait and get back to travelling long haul.

Recently filmed a Documentary in Saudi. Our American colleagues flew in from New York and were pleasantly surprised by the product. I then had the chance to fly from Jeddah to Riyadh on the 777 eco... Seat was comfy with good legroom. Leather Like material like the old BA regional flights. In seat entertainment and headphones provided to each passenger for such a short trip. I was also surprised by how well they did in getting the full flight boarded and in the air quickly. The flight from Riyadh back to Dubai was also nice. It was on an Airbus A320 and the seat type and consistency of service was good. By the end of the trip we were all surprised at the airline and would happily fly it back to KSA in future. For the longer flights I may consider other carriers because they fly direct from Dubai, but a solid option for those living in KSA for sure.

I'm guessing one reason Dubai Airport is so busy in the middle of the night is because that's when a lot of the airport's flights leave or prepare to leave (for very early morning departures). Given how hot Dubai gets during the day, especially in the summer, I imagine most flights are timed to leave and arrive during the relatively cooler hours of the night and early morning.

Noel your videos open up so many different options for me as when choosing a long haul flight with connections if I see Saudi airlines I automatically run for the hills as I’m not keen on a stop or connection in “Jedda” but with that scenery and service you definitely are winning me over, after a recent flight to the Philippines I opted for “Cathay Pacific” via Hong-Kong I kinda wish I was braver and went “Oman air” via muscat I heard there business class is super reasonable. If you could some how review that flight, id gladly buy you a beer ;) As I’ve never flown anything more than economy it’s a affordable start for me

Great video ! Thanks for covering my national airline 🇸🇦💚 and for sure we are trying to get up there with the 3 big middle eastern airlines , slowly slowly 🤣 I think our best business class suites would be on the B777-300ER that flies to London, if you would like to have a look one day :)

Fantastic review Noel! I would love to see you try out BA1 LCY-SNN-JFK on the all business A318 sometime in the future, that would be amazing! Although I'd imagine it probably wouldn't be cheap... Also the screen recorded sections of this video (moving map and Surfshark demo) appeared very glitchy to me

Saudi Arabia just got opened up with online tourist visas, also middle eastern airlines are some of the best in the world I would have to say, though my personal favorite has to be Turkish Arlines.

It was nice of them to unlock your window. I took an Aeromexico Dreamliner from Mexico City to Santiago, Chile and it was awful. I felt as if I was in a submarine, with the blue tint.
