Great video Scottie! Have to make a couple of comments, but all positive in context. Firstly, the lady who fell asleep beside you on the plane. She was a sweetie. She'd have had a busy day getting ready for the flight. Through all the drama getting to the airport, through the traffic, through the airport line ups, corridors, check-ins, and finally she's in her seat. And then when skyside, she looks at you. Thinking you seemed like a nice bloke. Feeling comfy in your presence she drifted off to sleep. That's a feather in your cap our Glaswegian friend. Then there's your baby. Small and skillfully packed. Well done. My wife could not have done better, (Shh, we won't tell her I said that). Condensed packing is not my forte. But your tips I take on board. Keep making quality travel videos and I'll keep tuning mate!

Interesting video again Scott. May I make a small suggestion: when you put titles on the screen can you leave them on for a bit longer. When you put up the text about the Trade Air aircraft it was only on screen for about 3 seconds and by the time I’d noticed it was there it disappeared. I had to replay that section 2 or 3 times to read it. Just a suggestion. 😄

I flew EuroWings from Berlin's Tegel airport (remember that?) to Las Vegas (via Dusseldorf) as part of a positioning flight on one itinerary on an Economy Light fare. It wasn't too bad to be honest. The Lufthansa lounge at Tegel wasn't so great but I thoroughly enjoyed the Lufthansa Senator lounge at Dusseldorf. Good food plus a shower which is always nice before taking such a long haul trip to Vegas. Seat was good, sure food was buy on board but was of decent quality - certainly far better than the toasties one would find on a RyanAir flight! This was back in 2019, remember the good ol' days?
@xr6lad2 жыл бұрын
Tegel. What a horrible airport. Built it seemed for 10 flights a day for the 1950’s. Check in at the gate was slow and far too crowded for the number of passengers on planes these days. The holding lounge was tiny. Horrible waiting for luggage. Then the actual BA airport lounges (if you flew Business class) on an upper level didn’t have toilets and you needed to go down the basement to the general toilets. Hated it.

That monorail is some serious tourist trap. As it was founded more than 50% by taxpayers money it counts as public transport and by law they have to charge ticket price for that. So its just part of the Dusseldorf VRR transport network and you have to buy a ticket. Last time I was there some ticket inspectores were there. As you can imagine no one in the world would even think about buying a ticket for a shuttle train on the airport area, me included. Fortunately my ICE ticket did include the CityTicket, but you can imagine how many people had to pay a fine.

I always pack to a minimum, for two reasons: More comfortable travel and to comply with baggage restrictions. However because my shoe size is 46.5, if I pack a second pair of footwear, it takes up considerable room in my luggage. Still, I remain within restrictions. It irks me much to see people boarding with two bags, one bag which is very much pushing the limits and most of all hard luggage. Hard luggage should only be permitted in the cargo-hold.
@DavidWood22 жыл бұрын
Some of us have no choice but to travel heavy, Chris. I have multiple disabilities, so have to check in a folding wheelchair in a giant wheeled suitcase (accepted free of charge without affecting your baggage allowance so long as prior arrangements are made) and a large hard-sided suitcase. I also have a carry-on size hard-sided suitcase and a soft-sided bag which contains what is a form of ventilator (has to be carried on and, again, is accepted free of charge as medical equipment in the cabin - I do carry a hospital letter confirming the equipment is hospital issued). If I have a personal item as well, that means I'm walking on with three bags, which is entirely within the rules and has been approved in advance by the airline. In the days when lithium wheelchair batteries had to be carried on, I was walking on with four bags (again, within the rules and approved in advance by the airline); these days, the batteries stay in the chair under stringent safety rules specific to lithium battery-powered mobility aids. Mobility aid batteries are the only passenger-owned lithium batteries that are supposed to go in the hold; all other lithium batteries should be carried on. My carry-on hard-sided is legal on the airlines I fly - dimensions and mass are both within the limits. This case is a four-castor spinner so that I can move it around. A good chunk of it is filled with medication and other medical items that I have to keep with me. If I'm taking my camera and laptop bag, which is within the personal item limits on the airlines I fly, that goes on the handle of my carry-on hard-sided case until I reach the plane. There is no problem getting that small hard-sided case in the overhead lockers using no more than the allowed space per passenger. In my experience, people sneaking on oversized backpacks that they don't want to check in is more of an issue when it comes to running out of locker space. People gamble that the gate agents will not force them to gate check oversized bags, which risks delaying departure whilst they are loaded into the hold. The other way that people use excessive locker space is by putting personal items in the lockers rather than under the seat in front (unless they are in a bulkhead or emergency exit row, where personal items must go in the locker). I wish I could pack as light as you and Scott, but it just doesn't work for my needs. Travelling heavy is a nuisance, but unavoidable when you are me. Washing out respiratory circuits is as much as I can manage; washing clothes as well whilst travelling is a non-starter. My bags come back rather less full than I travel because of the medical disposables I've thrown away along the way. Even travelling as heavy as I do, I have to use a lot of the "packing light" tips to get everything I need in my bags.

Being given two different dates is a pain in the backside if there's no easy way of telling which one is (in)correct, especially if it's an incorrect combination. You might be told "Thursday 22nd July" - except there isn't a Thursday 22nd July - it's Thursday 21st or Friday 22nd. Which one? My other bugbear is "Midnight on (day)". Say, "midnight on Tuesday" - is that when Monday ends and Tuesday begins, or when Tuesday ends and Wednesday begins? This is why some businesses, universities and a lot of computer systems will stipulate something like 11:59pm instead.

A bit late commenting on this Scott but I travelled with Germanwings, as it was called then, back in 2003. The flight was from Edinburgh Airport to Cologne Airport (Konrad Adenauer Airport). Back then I had never heard of the company and I remember it was £12 each way. My bicycle I had dismantled and was part of my luggage. I was really impressed by the company then. Even more impressed when I didn't have to pay for my bicycle. The aircraft was an Airbus and the seats were leather - luxury for the price. Sadly, on my return flight, I found that payment was due for my bicycle for both flights. Later Lufthansa incorporated Germanwings fully into a rebranded Eurowings.
