What’s it like to fly long haul on India’s BEST Airline, Vistara, in Business Class? Check out this 4k Trip Report & Honest Unsponsored Review on board this long haul flight to Paris on a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner!
Hi there! My Name is Kevin and today we will take a deep dive into the full Vistara Business Class experience. We will start off at the airport in Delhi while I transit from my flight from Chennai. Then we will talk about the Vistara and Air India merger and check out the Air India Business Class Lounge. Once on board we will of course take a very detailed look at the Business Class seats and all of the amenities that come along with it. We will also have two amazing meals and some incredible views along the way. All of this, followed up by The Flip Flop Score.

This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that’s the way I like it!

Where did you book the flight from? Using the points? Because vistara is asking for much highest value if booked with their CV points.
Did you notice another aircraft @15:36
LIKE FROM INDIA 🇮🇳 ♥️
To really see how good an airline is you really need to sit in the back with the rest of us,
This was the same flight which I took from New Delhi to Paris and it was pretty awesome. I would say the food was really good, I have used Emirates for same route however, the food in Emirates was really bad.
Can someone tag Josh Cahill here
Great review. Subscribed
Since this is the only airlines that would fly direct from Chicago we had no choice but fly with Air India over 35 years. Now finally we will have some service . No more old and grumpy face. Thanks for your reviews ..love your style.
Air India is not reliable
I love vistara new business class very good airlines
This is the first video I saw of this channel 'The Flip Flop Traveller' and OMG was it peaceful I literally felt like I was going to Paris from New Delhi myself keep it up sir YOU ARE MAKING AMAZING CONTENT!!
THANK GOD FOR MY YOUTUBE PREMIUM, THOSE AD DOTS U HAVE WOULD PUT ME OFF, SUBSCRIBING😊🥂
All indian airlines cater to majority of indian customers. So the lounges, food etc will be designed and decked up considering the indian customers. So it is obvious for someone like you to find the dining in the lounges Not up to the mark because it is not designed considering people from the west.
Similarly when we go to the airport lounges in the west, we do not find anything fit to eat or even edible as per our standards. We DO NOT eat pork, beef etc. and we do eat not at places where these things are served. Is that thing considered at airports in the west- NO….. So it's fair enough that our airports are more INDAIN friendy!!!! Personally I find our lounges nice, decent and more INDIAN….!!!
👏👏👏
The 2nd meal looks so good
Vistara is the shining star.
The collaboration with Singapore airlines means they are learning from the best.
Let's hope they don't get sloppy in the future
its such a disappointment that we will no longer have vistara liveries on airports …….man they all look gorgeous
Hmm the business class seats look similar to Singapore airlines
I am planning to travel to Frankfurt, can someone please tell me about the food quality
Vistara had much inputs from Singapore Airlines. I don't see that happening with Air India despite Singapore Airlines owning 25% of air India. A video by Sam Chui showed a lot of the operations and training being carried out by the 'new' Air India. I see no inputs from Singapore Airlines this time. Maybe coincidence. Hopefully, they let Sq's contribute as much as possible
14:00 It is also my Passing time in Airliance Great
I wish they could have kept everything as Vistara. Maybe only change the name to Air India.
Vistara Call Centre hardly respond to any call. Performance is worst.
Yes, the food looks much better than Air India!
