Is SCOOT Airlines the RYAN AIR of Asia?

[@Surreality22992]

We need the ambulance story, Kym!

[@BBKing1977]

If they hadn’t let him stay at the hotel his wife booked for him, I thought he might put someone there in the ambulance. 😂

[@hector_nimrod]

Yes, we need that story

[@Sidewhineder]

We need the ambu story!

[@milo4ever]

That beer dispenser was designed to fill the cups with less foam and to help maximize the number of cups of beer out of a keg.

[@privacyadvisor]

Ambulance ??!! 😂😅

[@SteveColen]

The bottoms up beer dispenser was developed to speed up lines at games where they typically get slowed down by the head of beer settling.

[@johniii8147]

I love that ANA has Makers Mark. Rare to find in Asia as is bourbon in general. It's middle tier but a good bourbon.

[@yonasngaturi8805]

One does not simply glance over “an ambulance ride”, what happened in the ambo?!??

[@helenmartin1092]

You can’t end with that, and Leaving us hanging !

[@motorsportarmchairexperts3642]

Come on Kym! What’s the Ambo story?

[@matiasjohnson99]

Direct flights from Perth to Tokyo start later this year so may be worth a try for next years race!

[@Just_a_Plane_motorcycle_rider]

Never has a prob with Scoot, will use them every time I can

[@overthemoon8864]

I recently flew Bangkok to Athens via Singapore return, the best flight times and no delays, would highly recommend and cheap !

[@vrccb]

Scoot looks considerably better than either EasyJet or Ryaniar

[@wreck.create.MAK0]

I’d love a video on how u became a photographer for f1 and how their system works . Are there licenses for a fixed amount - is their a wait list or apprentice system- is the pay fixed - do u work as a freelancer or for f1 or fia? What benefits are there ? How many are there? Do u own ur photos or does f1? Is travel and accomodation covered and per diems? Etc etc would love to learn about it

[@JasonPizzinoOfficial]

You deserve a medal after reviewing Scoot Plus! 😂 Good suggestion for a day time flight only.

[@chefboyartty]

I had really good experiences with flying round trip Vanilla Air from Taiwan to Japan! Highly recommend them. Also if you're in Japan the JR pass is amazing, its a flat rate fee only for foreigners to ride their bullet trains!

[@meredithlewis5152]

I flew Scoot Melbourne to Singapore return in economy. I booked it because it was cheap and it offered a daytime flight to Singapore (which I prefer as I can't sleep sitting up right). I was happy with what I got - a clean plane, edible food, and absolutely lovely service from the Scooties. I'd happily fly Scoot again.

[@KymIllman]

Thanks for sharing!

[@AshParajuli86]

Masks has always been a thing in Japan, Korea and Singapore well before COVID. Worn by people with the flu to minimise spread in public such as trains etc. It’s very thoughtful and I wish more Western countries would do the same even post-COVID most people in the West have reverted back to pre-COVID days of not wearing it when sick and spreading it in public.

[@lamontcranston4436]

Hard Rock hotel... ouch. Stay on the mainland next time, maybe Warehouse Hotel, Mandrin or Ritz. All have pools, all better. Capella best on Sentosa but tbh much more expensive, rather negates Scoot. Love the content

[@walmir8070]

Now you're leaving us with the ambulance story hanging!! 😂😂😂 Nicely done Sir.

[@skeleton1931]

scoot is the best budget airline in asia bro

[@FTRRacingTv]

They do flights from Singapore to Athens I don't think I could cope with a 11 hour flight with no entertainment system

[@JackFlanders]

01:44 - That's my favorite mass produced chocolate in Japan! I ate way too many boxes over the years. 05:27 - Space Oddity I think I flew Scoot from Tokyo to Taipei in economy plus or something. The upgrade was like USD 15. I don't recall the flight, it was years ago, but I don't have any bad feelings about it so there must not have been any issues.

[@magnustan841]

That economy section behind scoot plus is my personal preference. Extra legroom seat, adjustable headrest, in a private mini-cabin, with fantastic engine views too. It’s called scoot in silence and for me, it’s slightly better value than scoot plus.

[@Phonixrmf]

I flown with Scoot just so I can fly on a 787 for the first time. I find them quite the pleasant airline

[@bogged2theeyeballs695]

C'mon mate. Fair crack of the whip. You've gotta spill the beans on the ambo story.

[@EC4U2C_Studioz]

I think that and Cebu Pacific although I think Cebu Pacific is mostly used for flights within the Philippines.

[@Photoline1]

I flew Scoot from Tokyo to S'pore via Taipei. Very cheap in tourist class, very pleasant (despite strong crosswinds coming into Taipei) and great staff (couple of stunners, too). Hoping to try again.

[@daholyparrot1603]

What do you classify as 'tourist class'

[@90taetaeya]

If Scoot is the Ryanair of Asia, then AirAsia is the EasyJet of Asia lol. but tbh, AirAsia Thailand is good, it is AirAsia Malaysia that sucks.

[@nathandeveze9779]

Honestly, I used to fly scoot plus often and it´s a really good deal, someitmes you find the price of the eco seat for the same as the scoot plus, it´s spaicous, nothing extraordinary but it´s cheap and you´ll get to your destination...

[@andrewbeddoe8947]

Love the One Bite Pizza Review style score. "Score it like ice skating"

[@aKellyBrand]

Jace is such a good trip companion

[@lowend5566]

Flying direct into Nagoya is the pro option. Nice airport. And there’s an awesome sushi place underneath the main railway station.

[@wreck.create.MAK0]

Hope ur son appreciates how lucky he is to have such a cool dad who takes him to work on such an amazing job If he doesn’t I’m eligible for adoption- I’m 43 but still keen

[@Tonyshandle]

So cool that you get to do this with your son.

[@SuicidalLemonade]

Upset this wasn't called steaks on a plane

[@copa-jungle-jet4030]

I usually find Scoot very good for a LCC

[@beaniehead4]

8:30 is when the video starts showing scoot airlines

[@rais1953]

Scoot Plus used to be called Scootbiz but it isn't a business class. They were probably shamed into changing the name by Air AsiaX's Premium Flatbed which is like business class but isn't called business class.

[@Ho3n3r]

All we need now, is the ambulance story.

[@Andrewjok]

I think the beer despinser is so that the beer poor properly without to much froth on the top

[@michaeltorpy3366]

Your right about the masks here in Thailand still quite a few still wearing especially in malls and super markets

[@Swaggerlot]

The closest I've come to Scoot is when I noticed by chance that the return flight of my over priced SQ flight was on Scoot. It didn't happen.

[@74_pelicans]

I studied abroad in Korea in 2018/19 about 50% wore masks even back then.

[@efexas3695]

Another stella video... love it love it love it... looking forward to the next ones

[@KymIllman]

Trying Qatars first class to Doha this week. Review will be up at the end of the week.

[@ginoschwengle410]

Hi Kym, how do you keep all your memberships organized?

[@kevanhubbard9673]

Ryanair actually fly to Asia mainly Asian Turkey but i think that they may go to Jordan too?They do Africa too.

[@JP_Stone]

Ambulance?! Hope you and Jason are okay glad you made it home safe. Cheers, Kym till Qatar.

[@KymIllman]

All good.

[@lisavitale8410]

Good content as usual. Not surprised to see/learn that more people in Asia are still masking up compared with Western countries…. Aren’t Asian countries more known for masking wearing traditionally compared with Western countries?

[@74_pelicans]

Yep spent 3 months there in 2018 about half wore then

[@HelloOnepiece]

Yeah, its just part of daily life there. Partly because of etiquette (if you have a cold), partly because of old habits from the rapid industralization of the 20th century, and partly because it just became a part of fashion

[@desh2769]

Another part is air pollution. I was in South Korea in 2022 and pollution levels are part of the weather forecast. In Gangnam there are actually screens on lampposts showing the current pollution level.

[@lynetteleesh4188]

AW HELL YEAH, I’ll stay passionate if you put that guy at the end of all your videos 😍

[@kevinmugi8811]

The reaction to Asiana stake is just priceless 😂

[@sagetheowlfatfeathery2083]

The advantage of the bottom-fill beer is not getting a huge head on it when you have people who don’t know how to serve one

[@retsmd]

You, had a medical emergency, Kym? Looking forward to your ambulance video ;-)

[@graemecatty9921]

For 50 Aussie bucks for a buffet brekkie, you'd certainly want refills availability.

[@swdoctor]

This is a version of the Planes Trains & Automobile movie!!

[@kennethnielsen3864]

Thanks for sharing.

[@KymIllman]

Thanks for watching!

[@PeterKKraus]

When I hear the name Scoot, I can't help but think of a dog in a sitting type position dragging it's butt on a carpet to address an itch.

[@robgraham5016]

Ah come on Kym ... ambulance? You MUST TELL!

[@KymIllman]

No illness involved.

[@whoknocks7]

big fan kym, keep up the good videos thanks

[@danplays1403]

The ryanair of asia would have been lion air. You should try them

[@robertl7503]

You should calculate how many hours a year your in the air.

[@maxnokhrin697]

Haha I did that non-reserved sardine train 4 times this time 😢

[@Gutenmorgenside]

A bit unfair comparing them, Ryanair are usually pretty good.

[@dawidwolnik628]

Did fly SCOOT,, was ok

[@bertko1710]

Maybe try AirAsia X from 🇲🇾 next time Kym

[@tiadaid]

Scoot is not the Ryanair of Asia. That designation belongs to AirAsia...yeesh!

[@bobateacuber7646]

AirAsia is way better than scoot lmao

[@royeusebio5462]

woah whiskey is the key

[@ATH_Berkshire]

I’m slightly surprised that there isn’t a direct flight between Perth and Osaka. It sounds like and obvious route for someone to take, perhaps Perth and it’s surroundings isn’t as big a place as I picture them to be.

[@ramadolman6735]

Why not compare with Singapore airlines business to perth?

[@chanhonyian5818]

It isn't too bad :P

[@muhammadsiddiq7499]

Good👍

[@143budikuncoro]

Why the ambulance? Nothing serius i hope. Take care.

[@GrumpyPants572]

You got an uber to lanno? 😮

[@KymIllman]

Half way.

[@anangyoga1381]

ambulance story please

[@michaeltorpy3366]

Asian airports don't seem to have same problems as UK strikes useless air traffic control etc

[@WimRijksen]

Arigato (wrong language) Kym-san.

[@paulnotdownunder3172]

Kym likes expensive short haul business class flights and liqueur. 😂 Journalism pays well it seems..

[@swdoctor]

$700 for a room? oh come on ... why encourage price gouging Hotels?

[@englishmaninfrance661]

Japanese whisky ? how does that wotk ? There is only one Scotch , and that is Scotch whisky

[@memoriesofparis]

Do NOT fly Scoot if you value yourself. This airline lost my trench coat, which was in the checked-in luggage, and refused to compensate for the loss. What is even worse is that Scoot keeps wasting your time by repeating the same BS again and again.

[@stevecarroll6760]

Scoot has always been good for me. I don’t like the food choices on pre-order though.

[@bertko1710]

Kym we need the ambulance story! 🥹

[@terryterry1655]

wait till u fly #Myairline

[@DATT0]

How much was your Uber to Lano? 💰

[@KymIllman]

AU$81 to Joondalup then an ambulance to Lancelin.

[@clausstimpfig3803]

again vid is excellent. Scoot is horrorfull. That disgusting so called meal. No champagne. No way for me to travel.

[@naga6997]

Ryan air of Asia is airasia bro

[@supraptosuryodiharjo4338]

no..Lion Air is the Ryanair of Asia

[@geo.m1639]

Why don’t you get a direct flight?

[@LlamasAreBest]

You're like girls on Facebook looking for attention with your ambulance story.

[@KymIllman]

Rest easy. No illness involved.

[@miltonbrownrigg8409]

Love a good business lounge. Disappointing when they're not up to par or my stopover isn't long enough to take full advantage.

[@KymIllman]

When’s your next race?
