Thanks for sharing this... I was long haul crew with Virgin and like all my colleagues we’ve been made redundant, so it’s nice to keep videos like this as a memory. The long haul crew base in Sydney was quite small and I recognise all the crew on your flight and they were all amazing! I’ll really miss flying to Hong Kong and LA.

That's sad that they stop the flight to Hong Kong. Also, China Eastern airlines stop flying to Honolulu, Hawaii from Shanghai in January 2020 after the Coronavirus broke out and spread to all region in mainland China, including Shanghai. China Eastern airlines used to fly to Honolulu, Hawaii from Shanghai ( that I flew before 5 years ago in May of 2018 and July of 2018) daily on the Airbus A330-300, but to this day, they stop flying to Hawaii for 3 years since January of 2020, due to the pandemic.

[@theknightaviation]

I really hope that Virgin Australia will survive this pandemic and hopefully every airline in the planet and I rlly miss HK, the train annoucement on the train to the satelite building is a very familiar announcement to me, hopefully this pandemic will end and we can fly around the world again

[@Travelstar98]

Actually, everything has changed drastically by late March where quarantine measures took effect everywhere. The last flight I took was on 15 March from Jakarta to Singapore and luckily I was two days away from the measures in Singapore took effect. I returned to Jakarta on a Singapore Airlines flight in May, it was very very different and no inflight meals were given and a bag of snacks was a replacement for it. On a side note, my sister is moving to Melbourne next year for starting her university and may join either dropping her or continue my studies there. Hopefully, air travel has returned close to normal with no quarantine restrictions anymore.

[@JaydenWong]

some parts in Australia are now covid free or still have active cases but not from local transmissions so there are now some travel bubbles minus Melbourne and I think Sydney will be kicked out from the bubble soon. I was lucky enough to live in Adelaide and was able to travel to Queensland! there wasn’t much of a difference in terms of the food and drinks but definitely the IFE! It was unavailable

[@andyjackson4766]

As always great report - such sad times in the aviation industry I wonder what it will look like this time next year and which Airlines are no longer in the skies? Stay safe

Wow super quiet Hong Kong airport. I got my fingers crossed Virgin will survive and will be back up in the skies soon. I never got to fly them internationally so hoping I can in the future. The food looked decent. The chicken rice did look good. The scrambled eggs did look quite good for brekkie. It's now been 3 months since I been on a plane. So sad :(

Greetings, Jayden! When you travel from YYZ and arrive at 5am at HKG, you will see the airport empty and quiet like you did. But back then it was for a different reason and the terminals would soon regain activity. Did you shed a tear when you uploaded this video? Speaking of your trip report, Virgin Autralia treats their passengers well!

Haha no tear Eric, because I'm sure HKG will be bustling and hustling again. Virgin does treat their customers well, but they' don't seem to be able afford to treat us well!

I do prefer them rather than CX or Qantas... their service is good, food is nice and it‘s usually cheaper. The only two things I am not too happy with are the simplifed chinese (tho I do understand) and the crappy map (if you compare with other airlines it does not look professional enough) they show on screens. Otherwise it‘s good! Their staff are usually friendly and helpful.

Agree, rather stupid to have simplified chinese when they never flew there. Better off just with English. THanks for watching!

Enjoyable but sad - a certain fin de siecle atmosphere which I suppose is appropriate. What a shitty thing this virus has become as one by one it rips into so many fun aspects of life. Now realising that my partner and I are probably not going to be able to make our annual trip to HK to see the family. I really need my HK fix for the year - all that lovely food apart from anything else, with a Cathay Pacific trip to make a perfect start and finish. Stay safe young man

4:30 alcohol kicked in early😂

[@JaydenWong]

yep deffo!

[@mandated1311]

oh Jayden. It all looked so pretty on the craft. But please be careful, with all the situation around the globe, you could get the virus. The flight looked so empty. I can see why they didnt last long on that route. Did the hosts and hostesses address you by name? Were you offered a monring espresso when you woke? Or even a glass of Dom? Do they offer SleeperSuit on Vigina Austrwlia?

[@JaydenWong]

Nope I wasn't offered anything that you'd mentioned. South Australia has no more confirmed cases, everyone has recovered and gotten discharged from hospitals :) life slowly back to normal

[@DeltaBravoTango]

Again, Another superb trip report! I have never seen a video of Hong Kong airport where it's that empty wow! Good work

[@JaydenWong]

ikr! Thanks for watching as always!

[@milkybar06]

They won't be doing long haul flights for a while yet.

[@JaydenWong]

indeed :(

[@as673]

Great video Jayden. Tough time for aviation industry, hopefully most of them can weather the storm. Keep safe and god bless!

[@JaydenWong]

Cheers mate! thanks so much for watching, take care :)

[@yoelfebrian]

It’s so sad to see busy airports around the world becoming so eerily empty. The crew looked very friendly, and i was wondering why some crew were wearing protective mask and some were not?

[@JaydenWong]

Thanks very much for watching Yoel! In Australia, there is still no law/regulation regarding wearing masks. While the UK and US now start encouraging people wearing masks, Australia is still quite oppose to that. The two crew members only put their mask on after takeoff, just before the service.

[@JoshuasPHXAviation]

Nice video👍👍. I liked it

[@JaydenWong]

Thanks again buddy!

[@JoshuasPHXAviation]

@@JaydenWong You're welcome😁

It’s kinda sad though knowing that VA is going in bankruptcy and lots of airlines too . Just hope that they could survive this kind of situation. Even Malaysia lots of flight been cancelled .

[@JaydenWong]

Thanks for watching David! I'm sure they will, they're looking hopeful at the moment :D

原來悉尼的晨曦這麼漂亮，請問你通常在起飛前幾多小時以享用貴賓室服務，非常期待你會為這旅程作廣東話片

[@JaydenWong]

我通常三個小時之前到機場, 慢慢走慢慢享受 😂

[@nicolaithesecond]

Priya Abrahoma I don't have saving kit any more.

[@dianeschroeder3980]

Don’t you hate wearing that mask? I’m sick of wearing that thing and I want everything to be back to normal right now! Great review Jayden!!❤️👍✈️

[@JaydenWong]

Absolutely! First thing I did in Australia was throwing that mask into the bin😂

[@ceciliazhang9463]

I will try Virgin next time
