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!

    Wow 2 Ethiopian Airlines videos today, this one was on the older configuration and 777, the other YouTuber was in the A350 with newer seat. But, we know which one is self funded and not sponsored.

    Hows was the transit through Addis Ababa airport? How does it compare say to Abu Dhabi?

    I found your channel a few days ago, and I have been binge-watching your videos for several days now. I really like your style and consistency of telling stories. After watching your videos since the beginning, though, I noticed that you have become more and more critical. But I mean in it in a good way. Keep it up!

    Great tripreport. Loved it. On takeoff and landing, can you also include wing and engine in video and maintain normal speed…not fast forward? Appreciate it…

    Your comments on the day long layover for Euro airlines to and from the far southern hemisphere was the major costly reason that all but BA stopped flying to Australia. The Asian and Mid East airlines can fly in and leave back to their hub home bases promptly.
    Surprisingly ANA lingers most of the day in Syd for a late night return to Haneda.

    The biscuits look to be Taralli, an Italian snack! Similar to breadstikcs or crackers. Love your reviews! Great attention to detail and as someone who does usually fast froward the take off, the addition of the city info is nice!

  19. Ben Berlin

    The snack looked like „Taralli Pugliese“ 😅 A very common Italian snack sweet or salty 😉

  21. shanidar

    Maybe they were cheese biscuits, which are not salty, slightly cheesy with a texture of shortbread. Go great with tea or coffee.

    This is my first viewing of one of your videos. Excellent production. I have now subscribed. May enquire what camera equipment you use please. Thank you.

  25. John Mc Carrick

    Hello @flipfloptraveller , the aperitif biscuits they gave you are called “Taralli” to the best of you knowledge, they are usually Italian but maybe in Ethiopia they are common from Italy’s former colonial past with the country. There are different versions but these looked like the classic ones. Enjoy!

    We get our business class by just getting on betting system so we didn't pay full price. The food onboard in the cloud 9 was good. I actually loved the Ethiopian Food at this lounge in the video.

    Thanks for your great video featuring ET, my favourite airline 🙏🏽. With greetings from Namibia
