Nice review, I took my first 2 flights of 2023 earlier this week, felt nice to be back in the air!

[@Aviation763]

Thanks, Nice! ikr

[@jasonvandermeer9854]

Looks like another pleasant flight you had on Virgin Australia, Hugo! 🙂 Fortunate you were able to get the window seat after being assigned an isle seat! Did the man in the window seat see you filming and offer his seat or did you have to ask? Either way it was super nice of him! Nothing beats the beautiful views, sometimes I get amazed at other people who get the window seat and either don’t bother to look out or worse still close the shade for the entire trip - they don’t know what they are missing!

[@Aviation763]

Yeah it was thanks! yeah. Not sure if he saw me filming but i sat down and a few minutes later he offered. cant remember why but i dont think i asked. Yeah it was nice!! Ikr, thanks mate!

Yum

[@gregquan5647]

They're the worst! At least with Jetstar you can use the Qantas lounges. Enjoy one of the 8 they have - pathetic!

[@Rocky88pro]

I love your videos

[@Aviation763]

Thanks!

[@DeanoTheCuppacinno]

do you actually talk to the camera while recording or do you edit your voice over after? just wondering because it might be a bit embarrassing or people might feel uncomfortable being filmed with someone talking

[@aviationaus1856]

I know he talks irl, he’s told me this before, you can also hear the sound of the plane in the background

[@Aviation763]

correct

[@aviationaus1856]

Another first class flight review Hugo.

Thank you so much!

[@melbourneairportplanespotting]

How do you go travelling so often?

[@Aviation763]

It probably seems more than reality since i done actually travek once a week. But for rhe most part i have a supportive family, book in advance and take advantage of good deals.

[@melbourneairportplanespotting]

@@Aviation763 that must be amazing.

[@wesdahlqvist_]

Hey I’m flying to Sydney from Melbourne in 3 hours, do you know of any places to buy baggage tags?

[@Aviation763]

Sorry for the late reply, not sure if it'll help now but assuming you mean baggage tags as in a tag to write down your personal info on I'm not sure but probably a travel store, something like WHSmith might even have them

[@wesdahlqvist_]

@@Aviation763 Thanks! The flight was actually transit to Indonesia so I had time to read this after going through customs!

[@Aviation763]

I have very supportive parents and take advantage of good deals and book in advance

[@ifly1]

Stealing my route! Cool video, dont film on the tarmac😂

[@Aviation763]

Hahahah, thank you!

[@TazziDevil737]

I don’t get it all these channels all saying the same things about all the same airlines, I think it’s time to move onto other things for 2023

[@aviationaus1856]

Just don’t watch em, if u don’t like it why watch it??

[@Aviation763]

lol, im sorry you feel that way about my channel

[@gregquan5647]

Never again! Gold and Platinum? What's the point? They're worse than Delta...
