Commercial pilot here. Some planes have an “auto” setting for the seatbelt sign and it sounds like the flight crew left it in that position. After a certain amount of “turbulence” the automation flips on the sign. I don’t think we ever used it.

@@JoshCahill I know nothing about the 330, but our CRJs auto would pop the light on if the flaps were out of 0 position, gear handle down, or below 10,000 feet. I surmise if that if this was the case on a much more sophisticated aircraft it would include accelerometers of some sort, but I’d have to see the systems description. Airbus tends to have a lot more automation and sophistication. Then again it could just be the company’s SOPs to flip on that light at the slightest hint and I could be flat wrong.

Josh, your English is NOT "crap". Most people who's second language is English always think their English is terrible when it's not. I'm from the U.S and I find that most Europeans who come from non-English speaking countries actually speak English better than the U.S because they're using proper, old fashioned dialects instead of "y'all", "ain't", "gonna", etc etc etc. This goes to show that even North Americans don't know proper English. Your English is perfect and professional!!!!
@anapaulatillman.6133 Жыл бұрын
Good point. I'm reminded of this when I hear Africans speaking English, using Victorian-era argot like "perchance" and "felicitously." These words put blank stares on the faces of most Westerners, but it's nice to hear. A reminder of when English was a little more refined and variegated. Funny how sometimes language gets twisted, and sometimes preserved like a fly in amber.

They provided water, sleeping eye mask, foam ear plugs, slippers and blanket besides the meal (that’s on demand). Enjoyed the rest and woke up fresher upon arrival.

I suppose dine-on-demand is quite common in economy class among Asian LCCs for those who have pre-purchased. I once flew Denpasar to Tokyo with Air Asia (economy) and before take-off the crew asked if I wanted the meal after take-off or before landing.

The crew not displaying "personality" is sometimes considered a good thing in Eastern Asia. They are not supposed to small talk or anything like that. On a flight catering to international passengers, this is of course done differently. Also, there is a feeling of shame if people cannot speak English in this region, as they do not want to offend you or lose face or are inexperienced in dealing with non-Asian folks. This is of course a really general statement and subject to exceptions. Yet it makes sense to keep this in mind when travelling the region.

The reason why there are many Thais traveling to Korea is. First, Korea is no visa needed for the Thai passport since it seems to be a vary first destination(in East Asia) open for Thai traveler post covid. Secondly, Many Thai labours work in Korea. The last one is young Thais love Kpop things. There are many Kpop concerts happening there days. lol I think that's why many BKK-ICN flights.

My Business Class flight from Jeju - do to Seoul Gimpo airport last week cost me less than 100 USD. No food or drink is included, but who needs it on a one hour flight, very punctual as you would expect from any Korean airline. Flight going down in economy was only 31 USD.
