Some of Austrian's planes really are quite old, but they are always so clean and modern looking inside! They truly know how to take care of them. I've loved my every flight with Austrian very much so far

[@OnBoardHD]

Exactly, what really matters is the maintenance that a plane receives and not that much its age. I've said it many times, I prefer to fly always on a 30 years old plane that is well maintaned, than on a 1 month old plane bad maintained.

[@itsmatt5111]

Austrian airlines have one of the best european short flights bussines class in my opinion , i flew with them 3 weeks ago and it was great

[@OnBoardHD]

I agree. In this case we'll see the medium-haul business class. It was a really nice flight :))

[@itsmatt5111]

Yeah , i know this was medium-haul flight but it was very similar as my 2 haurs short-haul flight

[@y0s867]

Turkish Airlines and British Airways Are atleast 10 times better. I have over 20 flights with them in the past 2 months and by far they beat austrian

[@itsmatt5111]

@@y0s867 i think British airways european bussines class is overrated i flew with them once and turkish airlines is ofc better but turkish is way more expensive then austrian or british airways

The food looked the best I've seen in videos like this - I could almost taste it. Great report.

[@OnBoardHD]

I agree. The food was really good. Tasty, fresh and well presented. Amazing job by Austrian on this flight :) Glad that you've enjoyed it!

[@miguelha2536]

Austrian es una de las mejores aerolíneas que conozco. Creo que sí merece la pena. Por cierto, Bratislava es una de las ciudades más bellas que he conocido!

[@OnBoardHD]

Si viajas en business, la de Austrian es muy buena en corto y medio radio. Me han hablado muy de la ciudad, sí :)

[@europe0017]

The man at 6:25 is showling all wheels clear safe to go good flight. (I think)

[@OnBoardHD]

Almost... The correct answer is on the video :)

[@BigPaul62]

They look like a great airline, plane in good condition for 22 years and excellent food served properly with steel cutlery and on proper crockery.

[@philipkudrna5643]

Nice video. You did very well in capturing the experience of an Austrian flight! At 8:47 you can hear that the engine thrust is rolling back from the flex-take-off-thrust setting to „Thrust climb“. You could have pointed that out. The engines only really go full throttle for 90seconds or 2min during take-off!

[@OnBoardHD]

Thanks :) I don't add that level of detail because I don't know about the Airbus systems. So I don't write about things I don't know. But thanks for the info :)

[@lukim1388]

Wow! That was a nice flight and a great Business class experience. I just booked an Austrian Airlines service to Porto and from Malaga back to Vienna next week - both flights in Business for the very first time.

[@OnBoardHD]

Wish youan amazing one! This flight from Cairo was the best one I had with Austrian by far :)

[@sharondavis8003]

Great trip😊 Loved the triangular dishes plus all the types of bread! I am totally a bread lover. Seems like they took good care of their passengers & you had plenty of legroom at your seat 😮❤ Fly Austrian again 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️🇺🇸

[@OnBoardHD]

Flying business class with Austrian is always great. I truly enjoyed this flight! Glad you liked the Trip Report! :)

[@juanone66]

The last time I flew out of CAI, Egyptair operated out of two very unfortunate terminals. You are living the dream in the new ones! At 18:51 you can see the (docked) hydrofoil from Bratislava up the Danube to Vienna - the most pleasant way to travel between the two cities and not much more costly than a bus

[@OnBoardHD]

Well, if this one is the dream, I can't imagine how the other was hehehe

[@dejvaviationtrips]

[@swag_rec]

wow, I never miss an upload. Austrian should get some a321 NEO. When will you fly on a TUI dreamliner?

[@OnBoardHD]

Thanks so much! :) Actually, I bought a TUI UK flight recently (not on the B787 but on the B767), just to realize after paying that there were no window seats available... TUI UK doesn't allow you to even check the seat map before paying for the ticket... so that's the reason why I don't fly TUI UK, and the reason why it's very probable that the TUI UK B787 will never be on this channel. =/

[@Hassell163]

Buen vídeo, la verdad es que estuvimos en Egipto dos veces visitando las pirámides y demás monumentos que fueron una experiencia maravillosa . Lo de la ciudad de El Cairo ya me gusto menos era muy agobiante todos ahí apiñados y el ruidoso tráfico infernal que tiene es de locos, del aeropuerto coincido contigo de que no es gran cosa y para terminar volamos con Iberia. De este vuelo creo que el Catering estaba muy bien y las vistas sobre todo las montañas de Bulgaria han sido bonitas. Un cordial saludo y buen finde.

[@OnBoardHD]

Muchas gracias, Rafa :) Parece que lo peor de El Cairo es el aeropuerto jaja La verdad es que deja mucho que desear... incluso la terminal internacional es bastante lamentable... Me alegra que te haya gustado el vídeo! Feliz semana :)

happy journey

It was great :)

[@Le0n007]

6:33 Bypasspin, when the pin is inserted, only the pushback operator has control of the front gear, when the pin is out, the pilot has the control, before the departure pilots need to make sure that the pin is out, that is why the mechanic showed the pin.

[@OnBoardHD]

Correct. :)

[@willamisbezerra6970]

Belíssimo Registro Com a Austrian ❤😊

I was 2 times on Austrian airlines and its was quite good

[@OnBoardHD]

It used to be a great airline in economy.... now looks like they are that way only in business class :)

[@paolaberberi6839]

Did it have wifi on board? They usually offer packages to buy

[@thevacationworld]

Austrian is an excellent airline, I had only great flights with them 😁 Their fleet is really old, it doesn't matter if it's their short or long-haul fleet. Next year they receive some new Dreamliner from Lufthansa, that's really exciting, this year they got already some A320neo and I'm sure in the future they get some new A321neo also :) It was a great service on your flight and I was very surprised that you got an Amenity Kit 👍✈

[@OnBoardHD]

If it's well maintained, like the Austrian case, the age of the fleet doesn't really matter for the passenger. Glad that you've enjoeyd the Trip Report!

[@thevacationworld]

@@OnBoardHD Yeah that’s true :) But I’m really excited what they will offer in their new planes 😁

[@adrielrblx]

Algún día seré como tú :)

[@OnBoardHD]

Antes de responder, ¿puedo preguntarte qué edad tienes?

[@adrielrblx]

@@OnBoardHD 14

[@OnBoardHD]

Con 14 años yo ya tenía bastante claro lo que quería "ser de mayor", aunque por lo que vi en algunos amigos, aún tienes posibilidades de que cambies de idea a algo completamente diferente. Ahora bien, si tienes claro que quieres dedicarte a algo relacionado con la aviación, simplemente ve a por ello. Hay únicamente 2 cosas que son indispensables: buen inglés y, lo más importante, ganas y fuerza de voluntad para conseguirlo. Si te refieres más al tema de "trabajar haciendo vídeos en KZbin", eso ya es algo diferente. Lo que necesitas es un hobby por el que sientas mucha pasión y saber transmitirlo a los demás en forma de vídeo. Y aún así, eso no te garantiza un buen resultado, pero sí son los mimbres necesarios. Por último, si te refieres a volar mucho, hay 2 opciones para ello: hacerlo por trabajo o hacerlo por placer (vacaciones, viajes de fin de semana...). Son algo completamente diferente. Volar por placer es algo fascinante, de lo mejor que existe. Ahora bien, volar por trabajo puede ser al principio divertido, interesante... pero viene con contras, como por ejemplo el no estar en caso durante gran parte del año, o durante períodos muy largos. A la larga desgasta mucho. Muchísimo. En cualquiera de los casos, te deseo la mejor de las suertes! (Y que sigas disfrutando de estos vídeos, por supuesto!). Disfruta de las vacaciones :)

[@adrielrblx]

@@OnBoardHD muchas gracias por darme más motivación a lo que seré de mayor aparte de que cada ves que publicas videos no uno ni dos todos son increíbles

[@MH-gh]

😄@ 0:52 Rare? up until late last year, the 321s were still in use. They’ve ordered 4 A320 NEOs (to my knowledge) which started service to London late 2022, I fly quite regularly to Vienna and have now been on the NEOs a few times (also the A321 countless time) I would have thought the A321 NEOs would be in the mix as well, I imagine they will order them. To me, Austrian have always been a 1st Class Carrier & 1st Class Service. I’ve been using them for about 30 years now, their “European Business Class” is actually a perfect all rounder and they actually give you decent legroom unlike other carries I could mention! (Here’s L👀King @ you BA) I’ve flown with them to Cyprus (& the Middle East in the past) in BizzClass & it’s just as good…& yes, all their planes are so well maintained & look & feel modern, regardless of their age

[@OnBoardHD]

For the last years (pandemic) they were stored. I think I've seen them at VIE airport 1 or 2 times on the last 4 years :)

[@sjonnies6768]

[@OnBoardHD]

Mmm They seem to work perfectly, just the Neo's would be more eficient.

[@fabianwithbrain]

the reason is for no acholoel in the lounge is because egypt is a muslim country and it is prohibited to drink acholoel in islam

It's an international airline. Check if other airlines don't have it in their lounges (Emriates, Etihad, Qatar Airways...). =/
