LAN A340-300 AKL to SYD Business Class

Here's LAN's flight 801 leaving Auckland at 6am on our way to Sydney in their spacious business class.

[@albuenchicoz]

The take off sound of the a340-300 is amazing, "slow and low" is called its take off, great video!

[@seqspottingandtravels9346]

Fantastic flight report! Some beautiful scenes, I liked!

[@CSM209]

Beautiful!! That takeoff was one of dreams, the way the sun shone onto those clouds and the engine was just beautiful!! Great job, liked!! :)

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Melbourne Airport Spotters Thanks. A bit of planning and a bit of luck to catch that view as the sun came up.

[@CSM209]

It certainly paid off! That view is spectacular. Would love to have seen it in person! Well done! :)

[@divernater]

Superb vision with the sun coming through the clouds at sunrise on the engines,, inspiring for my art!! :)

[@iFlyTheWorld]

divernater thanks mate. Always nice to see a sunrise or sunset while up in the air. More vids coming very soon!!

[@LondonFlyer]

Excellent video! Nice to see a bit of old-style airbus interior on that A340. Loved the intro, and your shot of the cabin. :)

[@iFlyTheWorld]

londonflyer Thanks Londonflyer. These types of seats are becoming more rare as the designs change.

[@PaulStewartAviation]

Nice video mate! I considered this flight (there's often good prices because it's a quiet route) recently but the departure time from AKL is terribly early. I'm flying from AKL to SYD next month with Qantas so I'll be keen to check out the lounge (I've tried the QF First lounge, but no the business class one).

Arthur Sebata Thanks Arthur. I hope you have subscribed.

[@Aviatorspot]

Great flight video! Beautiful morn cloud scenes! Some familiar spots can be seen on landing at Sydney Airport,at 17:45, the A340 flew over Tempe container depot, Tempe reserve park, Qantas Drive, then 16R runway. Liked!

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Aviatorspot thanks mate. I hope you have seen my 2014 compilation.

[@elturistaCR]

Muy bonito el video. Bello el aeropuerto de Sidney

[@Marcel1969MZ]

that seems to be a good price. Thanks for answering. It's already 2015 down under, happy new year. We're still waiting for it in Europe. Greetings from Germany

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Marcel1969MZ Happy 2015 to you too. Germany is one of my favourite places to visit. What part do you live in?

[@PaulStewartAviation]

I love the A340s too. Sadly I don't think we see any in Australia now and they're all getting quite dated. Fortunately, as I suspect they won't be in the air for much longer, I was able to experience one twice in Dec last year with CX between Japan, Taiwan and S.Korea.

[@wyarthrottle]

Muy buenos días, ¡Bienvenidos a Sydney! This is a wonderful video, I love flying LAN! They have the best service in Latin America. Cheers!

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Raymundo Nava Gracias Raymondo. I'm looking forward to when LAN start flying their 787's to Sydney.

[@wyarthrottle]

S787iFly I didn't know LAN was going to fly the 787 to Sydney! I flew the 787 on the MEX-SCL route and it was magnificent. I'm sure you're gonna love it too!

[@mylosairplanefan]

Very nice video, great editing work aswell. I subscribed! ;)

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Thanks. Appreciate it.

[@joseluis5592]

That is the best flight

[@zerberus500]

F A N T A S T I C trip report, the sunrise over New Zealand....W O W!!!! LAN is in my opinion a good airline! In which month was it?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

zerberus500 2 weeks ago - Sept.

[@Marcel1969MZ]

sorry for the undiscreet question, did you get a good fare for that trip?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Marcel1969MZ Hi Marcel. To be honest, I cant recall exactly how much it cost but would have been around A$500.

[@supertecnoboff]

Superb video sir! Loved it. Will be subscribing :) Also the shot at 9:20 is amazing!!!

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Supertecnoboff thanks for subscribing. I love to make these videos and seeing the world. Stay tuned for a few more vids over the coming weeks.

[@supertecnoboff]

S787iFly Brilliant. I look forward to them. Also if you ever get the chance, could you make some videos featuring the old classic 747SP? :)

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Supertecnoboff haha just finding an SP to fly on is a rare thing these days. Iran Air might be one of the few airlines to have one (if they are still flying).

[@supertecnoboff]

S787iFly I know thats why I still love my countries airline. Iran Air still fly the damn thing like 45 years on ahaha.

LA TIERRA ES PLANA

[@carloseduardopolli7167]

Muito Legal Voo Ultralongo esse desde Santiago de Chile!

[@pbateson]

Great video. A340 getting old and good business class cabin. How is food and service? You sit on empty seat other side?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

pbateson Yes Paul, the A340 is getting old, and the entertainment system is barely working but with lots of legroom it's like a favourite old shoe that still fits and is so comfortable to fly in. The food and service were average but I was there for that at 6am in the morning.

[@karolasteiner2144]

Great flight

[@andresa1963]

Nice video, I would suggest to Lan do a redo on their business class section to make it more like the new planes.... and new look would improve even space. ...

[@iFlyTheWorld]

andresa1963 Well Andresa they already have as LAN now flies their 787 to Sydney with the new seating.

[@BudLight424]

this is a rare video of an overflight of Sydney..never knew there islands in the Sydney harbor...I once knew a girl from Auckland NZ she was in the AF Reserve but she wouldnt give you the time of day...

[@alepastrana2783]

yo mañana viajo

[@MonsterWand]

Woah! Da best views ever!

[@Stevethepug90]

i really like this video.

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Joseph Lopez Thanks Joseph. I'm so pleased you enjoyed it as much I enjoyed making it.

[@pierreroberge4927]

How long was this flight?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Pierre Roberge hi Pierre. It's a three hour flight ✈️

[@Mr.Majoris]

What is LAN from?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Mr. Majoris LAN is from Chile. But they have now joined with TAM airlines of Brazil and are now rebranded as LATAM.

[@Mr.Majoris]

Oh when it's land in Auckland do the plane continue going to chile?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Yes.

[@Mr.Majoris]

iFlyTheWorld Oh Thank you!

[@grindlessenior]

in what language was the announcement at 19 mins?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Alan Grindley It would be Spanish

[@TheSolnabo]

"If someone feel ill" Did I hear the announcement right when taxi at AKL???

[@iFlyTheWorld]

TheSolnabo Yes it was the Australian Govt announcement made by the customer service manager on the aircraft advising passengers that if they feel unwell that they should advise the crew so that the health department in Sydney can be advised so that they can be checked by a doctor.

[@TheSolnabo]

S787iFly My first thought was Ebola, Sars, Birdflu etc...

[@iFlyTheWorld]

TheSolnabo There are many illnesses from many parts of the world and Australia likes to be careful in protecting it's health.

[@TheSolnabo]

S787iFly How very true. Thnx for great video mate :D

[@rudafriasdepinho9808]

how long is this flight?

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Rudá Frias de Pinho Hi there. The flight is about 3.5 hours.

[@viajeronortino.1983]

nice vídeo! :D / subscribed ;)

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Thanks Francisco

[@dvdl110]

2:38 looks like the rock :P

[@raquelneves1265]

Nesse vídeo vimos um boeing 737 da quantas deve ser na Australia

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Raquel Neves Hi Requel, from my calculations it would be 132 737NG flying with Qantas and Virgin Australia plus the RAAF 737BBJ

[@Lostkiwi123]

The food looks like what you get in economy on a nicer plate

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Lostkiwi123 For breakfast at 6:30am it was good enough. Your comment probably says more about the nice breakfast in economy :)

[@Lostkiwi431]

Pat Morac Emirates business class breakfast is by far superior. Yes it is a different product but is so much better than this it isn't even funny.

[@Jcug96]

Great great great great video! LIKE and Suscribe! I turn off the volume and I played music, that was perfect!

[@iFlyTheWorld]

Gonzalo Cubillos They are being replaced by the 787-8 now.

[@gonzalocubillos3691]

S787iFly the 787-8 it's so modern and beautiful
