Fun in the Air - The Bar is Back! Emirates Bar in the Sky @DennisBunnikTravels

DennisBunnik Travels The Bar is Back and it’s time for Fun in the Air!

Yes the Emirates Bar in the Sky on the iconic A380 is back!

Join me as I reunite with the Emirates business class bar in the sky on a fun flight from Dubai to Cairo, Egypt.

This was my first A380 and my first Emirates flight in over 2 years so to say I was excited was an understatement – more like a kid in a candy store as I savoured every moment of the Emirates A380 business class experience. This experience starts at Dubai Airport and the incredible business class lounge in Concourse A which allowed you to board your A380 direct from the lounge – no queues, no waiting.

This Emirates Business Class Flight Review includes enough aircraft action to satisfy the biggest avgeek. Business travellers will appreciate the tour of the seat and the facilities offered on board including the meal and drink service by the lovely Emirates Crew.

Of course I also check out Emirates famous ICE entertainment system.

But the real fun starts after lunch when I head to the back of the upper deck of the super jumbo Airbus A380. Here Emirates has created the coolest bar in the sky exclusively available to business and first class passengers.

Turkish Airlines Business Class - The Airline with a Chef on Board

DennisBunnik Travels 2024-01-01 | You know an airline takes food seriously when they have a chef on board every long haul flight to specifically look after their business class passengers.

It's time to road test Turkish Airlines business class on a long haul flight from Istanbul to Singapore and see if they live up to their reputation.

Anybody who has been to Turkey will tell you about the wonderful Turkish hospitality and food. But what is their national airline - Turkish Airlines - like?

Turkish Airlines say they fly to more countries than any other airline and have just announced they will finally commence flying to Australia in Q1 2024. This is massive news for Australian travellers as the Turkish Airlines route network, especially in Eastern Europe, is unrivalled.

So does the Turkish Airlines Business Class live up to the hype? Watch this Turkish Airlines Flight Review and find out. This flight review covers 2 flights - first my hop from Ljubljana to Istanbul in Turkish Airlines wonderful European business class. Then I jump onboard a TK Boeing 787 for the long haul flight to Singapore. The perfect opportunity to really test out the Turkish hospitality from their business class lounge at Istanbul Airport and in the air.

Thanks for watching and, as always, happy travels!

How the Americans Do It! Caribbean Business Class

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-12-03 | We've all seen the fancy long haul business class offerings from the major airlines. But what are they like on the shorter regional routes? And how do the American carriers compare to the likes of flying Virgin Australia to Bali?

Join me as I fly from Miami to the Caribbean Island of Aruba on American Airlines in Business Class. It's on an American Airlines Boeing 737 with a standard 2 by 2 narrow body business class.

This flight review covers the entire American Airlines experience from boarding to landing. I include the AA business class seat, the inflight dining, entertainment and some stunning views out the window as we fly out of Miami and straight over the top of Cuba.

Then when we arrive I've included a bit of footage from our 2 days stay on this beautiful island.

By way of comparison here is my review of Virgin Australia from Melbourne to Bali: youtu.be/PnSZSrlLiq8

The best bit about this trip though is that I got to share with my brother Sacha who has his own travel related YouTube channel. Here's the link: youtube.com/@thepart-timetourists

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-11-19 | Welcome to the world of Polaris – United Airlines’ take on Business Class.

The question: is it any good? Well, there’s no better way to find out than to take a super long haul flight – from Australia all the way across the Pacific to the USA.

Join me as I spend 13 hours onboard a United 787 and enjoy all the travel comforts that Polaris has to offer.

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-10-15 | Virgin Australia to Bali - is business class worth the extra cost? Join me and we'll find out together.

Flying from Adelaide to Melbourne and then on to Denpasar Bali with Virgin Australia in business class was a great way for me to break my Virgin International virginity.

This Virgin Australia business class flight review covers the entire journey including the Virgin business class lounge in Adelaide, transferring in Melbourne Airport, boarding, taxi, take off and the full onboard experience as we fly from Melbourne to Bali.

LATAM - Full Business Class Review

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-08-20 | When it comes to long haul business class flights the bed often maketh the flight! For this reason alone you can put LATAM on your list to fly.

Join me as I fly South America's largest airline LATAM from Sydney Australia to Auckland New Zealand in their premier business class. This LATAM full business class flight review covers the entire process from the Qantas business class lounge in Sydney right through to disembarkation in Auckland.

On the way I'll try out the LATAM business class seat both in seat and bed mode, I'll taste the food, explore the entertainment system and experience the inflight service from the delightful LATAM cabin crew.

Asiana Business Class: A 9 Hour Retro Feast

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-07-09 | From the outside Asiana Airlines aircraft look stunning with a super cool livery...on the inside it's a different story. The colour scheme and the seat design give the cabin a definite retro-vibe.

But what was the rest of the experience like? Join me as I fly from Seoul, South Korea through to Sydney Australia and we'll find out together.

This will be a 9 Hour Retro Feast in Asiana Business Class.

This full business class flight review covers the entire Asiana Business Class experience from check in at Seoul Railway Station right through to the Asiana airport lounge, the onboard service, amenities kits and meals.

Is it any good? Asiana Airlines Economy Class Review

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-06-18 | I have to admit, Asiana Airlines is not an airline I know a lot about.

I know they have a great livery and are a full service airline from South Korea but are they any good? Join me and we'll find out together.

We're flying on an Asiana 777 in economy class from Sydney Australia to Seoul South Korea with a flight time of just under 10 hours. The perfect chance to test out if Asiana is any good and if it should be on your list of airlines to fly.

We boarded and pushed back on time. Unfortunately though the pilots discovered a technical fault as we taxied to the runway and had to return to the gate. A 90 minute delay with minimal information provided was not the ideal start for Asiana.

However once the problem was fixed and we took off I got to enjoy the Asiana Airline hospitality in full. Their crew were lovely, the food - even in economy - was delicious and the seat was very comfortable.

The Asiana economy class flight review covers the entire experience including the onboard service, inflight entertainment system, take off and landing.

Egypt Air - Not what I was expecting

Etihad Airways Business Class Review. Is it still as good?

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-05-28 | Etihad Business Class was for a long time considered one of the best in the sky. Then the cost cutting started as Etihad reeled from a number of poor investment decisions in other airlines. Then covid hit.

So what's the Etihad business class product like now in this post-pandemic world of high airfare prices and full flights? I flew from Melbourne Australia to Etihad's home port of Abu Dhabi to find out. 14 hours in the Etihad business class suite. 14 hours of Etihad service.

Join me and I'll show you what it was like. I'll show you The House lounge Etihad uses in Melbourne and then we'll board the Etihad 787 and experience the Etihad business class service.

Then I'll answer the question: Etihad Airways Business Class - Is it still as good?

Hidden World of Air Cargo. How Airlines Work: Part 3

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-05-07 | Let's look at the Hidden World of Air Cargo. This is Part 3 of in my continuing behind the scenes series at Qatar Airways.

Freight, or air cargo, plays a vital role in the commercial success of an airline. It also helps keep the world supplied. However air cargo is a side of the airline industry that is rarely seen by the general public. I therefore jumped at the opportunity to go behind the scenes at Qatar Air Cargo.

From family pets to jet engines and everything in between there is almost no limit to what can be transported by air. The numbers are simply staggering and in this exclusive look into the Hidden World of Air Cargo we find out just what makes Qatar Air Cargo tick.

Why I love Malaysia Airlines Business Class

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-04-30 | Why I love Malaysia Airlines Business Class. It can be summed up in one word and one dish - Satays!

This was my first Malaysia Airlines flight since the pandemic and I was keen to see if they were still the same good old reliable Malaysia Airlines as they have always been - offering great value business class with friendly personalised service. And of course I wanted to reconnect with my favourite dish in the sky - Malaysia Airlines iconic satay service.

Malaysia Airlines has been serving satays in business class for as long as I remember and whilst other airlines may try to copy none of them have ever come close to the deliciousness of the Malaysia Airlines Satay!

This Malaysia Airlines business class review is a full flight review of the entire Malaysia Airlines premium experience from the lounge right through to the onboard experience.

Join me and we'll do it together.

Oman Air Business Class FLIGHT REVIEW

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-04-23 | Oman Air Business Class Flight Review - this video promises exactly what's in the tittle.

Join me as I fly from Oman Air's home port of Muscat to Kuala Lumpur on an Oman Air A330 in their epic business class. Whilst relatively unknown compared to the more high profile Gulf carriers Oman Air punches massively above its weight and offers an absolutely first class business class product.

Fantastic cabin crew, dining on demand and the very best business class bed in the sky are just the being of what makes Oman Air such a great choice for business class travellers.

This flight review is the third in a series of Oman Air flight reviews I have made. The first two cover the Boeing 787 business class and the second the Boeing 737 Max8 in economy class.

Qatar Airways SECRET Crew Terminal. How Airlines Work Part 2

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-04-16 | This is the story of Qatar Airways secret crew terminal. How Airlines Work Part 2

Have you ever noticed that you don’t see any Qatar Airways pilots or cabin crew walking through Hamad International Airport in Doha?

So where do they check in and how do they get to their aircraft?

I’ve been given exclusive behind the scenes access at Qatar Airways to answer this and many more questions. In this episode I’ll take you behind the scenes at Qatar’s dedicated crew terminal. This is where the flight and cabin crew check-in, get their pre-flight briefing and then get their own private transfer straight to the aircraft.

I’ll also show you how the arrival process works. This starts with a dedicated set of stairs at the back of the aircraft for crew to disembark to their own private bus. Upon arrival at Qatar Airways secret crew terminal they go through immigration and security just like the rest of us. The private crew terminal even has its own Duty Free store and luggage belts.

This is the second video in my series How Airlines Work. Make sure you subscribe and hit that notification bell so you’ll be the first to know when I release my next video.

What REALLY Happens to Inflight Blankets? How Airlines Work Part 1

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-04-09 | Have you ever wondered what happens once all the passengers disembark after a long haul flight? What happens to the aircraft? How do they prepare for the next flight and who does all the dishes? And what happens to the used blankets between flights? Let's find out together!

I've been given exclusive behind the scenes access at Qatar Airways to see exactly what makes them tick. I want to know the secrets behind Qatar Airways' success and what makes them one of the world's leading and fastest growing airlines.

First on my list was finding out what happens between flights. In this instance between a 14 hour long-haul flight from Seattle to Doha and a 13 hour long haul flight to Adelaide.

In never-seen-before footage I was allowed onboard the aircraft after all the passengers had left and was there when the cleaning and catering crews sprung into action. Their first task was to completely de-Seattle the aircraft by removing all the used meal carts, pillows, blankets, mattresses and rubbish. The aircraft is then thoroughly cleaned before it is prepared for its next flight, in this case another long-haul leg to Adelaide.

Re-stocking for Adelaide begins with the arrival of a fleet of trucks - carrying 120 fully stocked carts as well as bags and bags of blankets, pillow cases and amenity kits.

With the new crew boarding an hour before the Adelaide flight was due to depart it was time for me to find out who was doing the dishes.

Again I was given exclusive access to how the entire operation of de-stocking and re-stocking an aircraft goes. The Qatar Aircraft Catering Company's operational centre is the largest single building catering unit in the world at 69,000sq metres. Not only does it produce over 170,000 meals per day it also processes 7000-8000 dirty carts and does 1.5 million dishes. Every single day.

On top of that it processes 40 tons of laundry, including 100,000 blankets per day.

The operation is mind boggling and needs to be seen to believed. Luckily Qatar Airways gave me, and my camera, a full-access pass and I was able to see every step of the process. I now understand why Qatar Airways wins so many awards and have a far greater appreciation of exactly how much work and how many people are involved in making these flights possible.

To all the unseen heroes working behind the scenes and to everybody at Qatar Airways who helped make this video possible a massive thank you from me and every other passenger.

This it Part 1 of my Qatar Airways Behind the Scenes video series. Other episodes will feature their Cargo Operations, the Crew Terminal and the super secretive Integrated Operations Centre.

If you haven't subscribed yet please consider doing so because these videos will be equally amazing.

Thanks for watching and as always happy travels

Flying the Max 8: Oman Air Flight Review

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-03-26 | To tell you the truth this could also be considered a muffin review. But then Oman never fails to surprise and delight.

On this, my continuing series on Oman Air, I fly the Boeing 737 Max 8 from Muscat down to Salalah in the south of Oman.

My review includes the beautiful airport in Muscat that Oman Air calls home. It's here that I'm tempted by that muffin and blown away by some cashews.

We then jump onboard the Max 8 for our 90 minute flight Muscat to Salalah. As always my flight review covers the entire experience including the take off, landing, seat, Oman Air inflight entertainment and the meal service on board.

As a bonus extra I've also included some footage of my travels through Oman - an amazing country that you should definitely put on your list to visit.

I hope you enjoy this Oman Air 737 Max 8 flight review. Let me know in the comments below.

Qantas Pain = Virgins Gain!

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-03-12 | I've been a Qantas Platinum Frequent Flyer for about 15 years and pre-covid would average 40-50 flights a year with them. At the end of September this year my membership year rolls over so by then I need to earn enough Status Credits by flying Qantas to ensure I retain Platinum. Every year retaining Platinum was always my first priority when working out what flights to book.

However, this year, for the first time ever, I have no real motivation or desire to even try to requalify for Platinum status.

Sadly I know I’m not the only one feeling this way and it shows the huge underlying problem Qantas is facing as it’s once loyal customers turn their back on what was a great airline.

But what’s the alternative? Can Virgin Australia really compete? Is Qanta’s Pain really Virgin’s Gain? Is it time to swap sides?

Watch this video and let’s find out. On a recent regular trip from Adelaide to Sydney I flew Virgin Australia to see how they compare. In doing so I know I made reattaining Qantas Platinum even harder for myself. But I did save $300 on the return trip so the decision was a no brainer.

This Virgin Australia flight review covers my Boeing 737 flight from Sydney to Adelaide in economy class. It’s a standard business route flown by both business and leisure travellers day in day out. It competes directly with Qantas flying the same aircraft type so the perfect opportunity to see how they compare.

Thanks for taking the time to watch this video. If you liked it please subscribe and check out my channel where my back catalogue includes flights all over the world in economy through to first class suites. There’s a lot more on the way too.

Happy travels

You Have to Fly this Airline!

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-02-19 | You have to fly this airline! Oman Air 787 Business Class

Oman Air is not airline I knew much about nor had I flown them before. But this one flight from Bangkok to Muscat on their flagship 787 in business class has me hooked! I'll definitely be flying them again. Why? Because Oman Air has the best business class seat and bed in the sky. They offer dining on demand and their crew are really really good.

Don't believe me? Watch this Oman Air flight review to find out exactly why I like them so much - and also what I really didn't like about Oman Air.

This Oman Air business class review covers my entire journey with Oman Air from Bangkok to Muscat in the Boeing 787. This includes the Oman Air business class lounge at Bangkok airport, boarding, take off and the incredible inflight service from Oman Air.

Why Fly Thai?

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-02-12 | Thai Airways have been through the ringer over the past few years. Covid and a complete financial restructure has taken it's toll. But now with borders reopen Thai is back - albeit as a much leaner version of its former self.

So what's it like and is Thai Airlines still an airline you'd want to fly? Watch this video to find out the answer to the question: Why Fly Thai?

This Thai Airways business class flight review takes me from Melbourne, Australia to Bangkok Thailand - a flight of just over 8 and a half hours. Plenty of time to really experience the new Thai Airways business class.

My business class review of Thai includes the Air Zealand Lounge in Melbourne, boarding, the inflight service and meals as well as a complete review of the Thai Airways business class seat.

This was my first Thai Airways flight since my very special Royal First Class flight on the Queen of the Skies the 747 back before covid. That was an incredible experience and a review worth seeing. Here's the link to that flight:

My Day Job Part 1: Azerbaijan

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-01-29 | Whilst flight reviews are my hobby, they don't pay the bills. My actual day job is helping to run the family travel business Bunnik Tours and it's that job that enables me to travel the world - filming flight reviews on the way.

Bunnik Tours runs small group tours ex Australia to Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America. For full details see https://www.bunniktours.com.au/

This video covers the first few days of Bunnik Tours' Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia tour which I escorted in August 2022.

Our tour starts in the Azerbaijan capital Baku - which offers a wonderful mix of old and new. We also travel Shamakhi and into the Caucasus Mountains. Closer to Baku we explore the incredible Mud Volcanoes and marvel at the 15,000 year old rock carvings at Gobustan National Park.

This video, the first part of My Day Job series on Azerbaijan, gives you a glimpse of what I do when I'm not filming flight reviews. I hope you like it. Let me know if you would like to see more content like this on my channel.

Qatar First Class - Best Seat in the House on the A380

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-01-15 | Ever wondered what first class on the Qatar A380 is like? Join me and let’s find out together as I fly from Sydney Australian to Doha in First Class on Qatar Airways.

Qatar Airways have a well-founded reputation as offering the best business class in the sky. They even boast that their Q-Suite is First in Business.

So does Qatar Airways even need a First Class? And is Qatar First Class worth the extra cost considering Qatar Business Class is so good?

With these questions in mind I didn’t hesitate when given the chance to upgrade from Business to First when checking-in on a recent Qatar flight on the A380. Especially as this was a 14 hour flight – the perfect opportunity to really check out Qatar’s First Class and compare it to my recent flight on Air France La Premiere.

The other reason I wanted to try it is because Qatar only offers real first class on one aircraft type – the iconic double decker Airbus A380, the world’s biggest passenger aircraft. Qatar First Class is therefore not only exclusive but it is also elusive with only 10 A380s in their fleet.

Join me as I travel in the lap of luxury from Sydney to Doha in the Best Seat in the House – 1A.

Emirates Economy Reviewed - A380 Worlds Biggest Passenger Plane

DennisBunnik Travels 2023-01-01 | Emirates Airlines is one of the world’s largest airlines and pre-pandemic it was flying close to 60million passengers per year through its mega-hub in Dubai. The vast majority of those in economy class.

But how good are they in this post-pandemic era? Join me on Emirates Economy Reviewed as I test and review Emirates Economy class from Dubai to Cairo on the A380 – the world’s biggest passenger plane.

My flight, EK927 is the morning service from Dubai to Cairo Egypt and takes about 3½ hours. Plenty of time to test out one of the almost 400 economy class seats on the Emirates A380.

After take-off from Dubai breakfast is served.

Then it was time to sit back, relax and enjoy the Emirates ICE inflight entertainment system which is considered the very best in the world.

This Emirates Economy flight review covers every aspect of my flight on the Emirates A380 in economy class. This includes boarding at Dubai International Airport, the take off, the inflight service, the seat, the meal and even the views out the window as we fly across Saudi Arabia on our way to Egypt.

Join me, let’s fly together.

Cheers

Reported to Security - My Jetstar Experience

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-12-18 | It started so well. Until suddenly it went down hill pretty quickly.

I was flying from Cairns to Adelaide with low-cost carrier Jetstar Airways which is part of the Qantas group. This Jetstar flight review covers my total Jetstar Experience including when things took a turn and I was Reported to Security.

It was all going so well - I was really impressed by Cairns Airport; from their friendly security staff through to the many shops and dining options and the huge Qantas Club Lounge with its great views of the apron and airport operations.

Then I headed to the gate and things went downhill quickly. Jetstar appears to randomly select flights where they weigh passenger's hand luggage - this was one of those flights. Luckily my hand luggage was under the weight limit however the Jetstar employee managing this process didn't take too kindly to me filming the process - even though I wasn't filming her or any passenger's faces.

Despite my attempting to explain why I make these review - to promote travel and help inform travelers - things escalated quickly. She reported me to management and I was stopped from boarding until I had been suitably berated by the manager and shown her my footage. For good measure she advised me she would be reporting me to Qantas Security.

I've always maintained that every employee helps shape a company's culture and contributes positively or negatively to its brand experience. My experience on this flight is the perfect example on how a couple of staff having a bad day can damage a brand. Ultimately though we all know the buck stops with senior management and hopefully this video sparks the conversations that are sorely needed at Jetstar's head office.

For an example how these videos can be a positive for an airline and boost staff pride and morale at the same time check out my recent Air France flight review. Here's the link: youtu.be/OE5R5Cj7_Jo

Air France La Premiere First Class - Best Upgrade Ever!

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-12-04 | Sometimes you just need to take the plunge and splurge – this was one of those occasions and it could not have turned out better.

I was scheduled to fly Air France Business Class from Paris to Singapore. An evening flight of some 12 and a half hours. But when I turned up at the airport I asked the question – is it possible to upgrade to first class and what would the cost be?

This question and the answer provided (yes it is possible) started what was to become one of my best flights ever and led to my most indulgent meal ever – in the air or on the ground.

Join me as I step through the doors into another world. A world of pure luxury and indulgence as I experience Air France La Premiere First Class from Paris to Singapore.

I knew little about Air France First Class before taking this flight other than knowing about their reputation for fine food. What I wasn’t expecting was the high degree of personalized service from the Air France team and the exclusivity of La Premiere First Class.

What what was it like and is Air France dining as good as they say it is? Join me as I fly Air France La Premiere First Class.

Emirates NEW Premium Economy - Whats it really like?

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-11-20 | Please DO NOT order any glasses at this time from the company I featured in this video Christopher Cloos - it appears that they have entered administration and are undergoing a restructure. If you have ordered glasses and paid by credit card and these have not been delivered you should be able to get your credit card provider (bank) to reverse the charge.

Emirates have just released their brand new Premium Economy cabin but what is it really like? Join me as I give it the ultimate test on a 14-hour long-haul overnight flight from Sydney Australia to Dubai.

Emirates New Premium Economy was only formally launched a few months ago and is available on selected flights to Sydney, London and Paris. Over the coming months, as more and more Emirates aircraft are retrofitted with this premium economy product, cities like New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Melbourne and Auckland will come online and feature this new premium economy class.

This flight review and Emirates New Premium Economy trip report covers the entire journey from check-in at Sydney Airport through to arrival in Dubai. Along the way I’ll show you the Qantas First Class Lounge and the Emirates Lounge at Sydney Aiport, boarding, taxi and take off. Then once in the air we’ll sit back, relax and enjoy the Emirates inflight service in this exclusive Premium Economy Class Cabin which is located at the very front of the Airbus A380.

Flying 3,300 Years Back in Time

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-10-30 | Flying 3,300 Years Back in Time. This is the ultimate flight into history. Join me as I fly across the desert sands and one of the world’s largest man-made lakes to the outer reaches of the Ancient Egyptian Empire.

This Egypt Air flight literary travels back in time 3,300 years to the reign of the most powerful Pharaoh of all Ramesses II.

Abu Simbel was his statement piece, the ultimate vanity project as big as his ego. It was built as a symbol of Ramesses’ power, to establish himself as equal to the gods and as a warning to his enemies – don’t mess with me or my fellow Egyptians.

Built in 1295BC the Temple of Abu Simbel is dedicated to Ramesses II and the sun god Amon-Ra. Right next door is the temple dedicated to his favourite wife, Queen Nefertari.

My Flight 3,300 Years Back in Time starts at Aswan Airport where we board an Egypt Air 737-800 for the quick 35 minute flight to Abu Simbel. These 737’s re the work horse of the Egypt Air fleet and despite the dirty windows we get some great views of Lake Nasser on the way.

We then travel the short distance by bus to the Temples which are located on the banks of Lake Nasser. They should however be under water! When the Aswan High Dam was built in the 1960’s the temples of Abu Simbel were doomed to be flooded. However, in a massive international engineering feat these temples were moved some 60 meters up the bank!

The temples of Abu Simbel are a sight to behold and a must see on any visit to Egypt. They can be visited by flight or by road from Aswan.

I was in Egypt escorting a private group arranged through our family business Bunnik Tours. This group had the flight option included as part of their itinerary. All Bunnik Tours groups to Egypt visit Abu Simbel – generally by road allowing you to see the sun rise over the desert on your way out to these magnificent temples.

But who is Buta Airways?

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-10-23 | So who is Buta Airways? Well I'd certainly never heard of them and certainly wasn't expecting to fly them as I turned up for my flight from Baku to Tbilisi.

It turns out Buta Airways is the low cost regional carrier owned by Azerbaijan Airways and is based, like it's big brother, in Baku.

This flight review covers the full Buta Airways experience from boarding through to our arrival in Tbilisi Georgia. But before we board Buta I'll show you around the beautiful Baku International Airport Terminal - it's a stunning little airport and well worth checking out.

Enjoy the Buta way.

Happy Travels

Qatar Economy Class - Ultimate Long Haul Flight Review

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-10-09 | The ultimate test of just how good an airline is is not how blingy their first and business class cabin is but how well they treat their economy class passengers.

And the ultimate test of economy is a long haul overnight flight.

So that's just what I did for this Qatar Economy Class - Ultimate Flight Review.

Join me as I board a Qatar Airways 777 in Adelaide Australia and fly all the way to Doha Qatar in economy class.

What's the Qatar economy class seat like? I'll show you.
What's the Qatar Economy Class catering like? I'll show.
What's the Qatar Economy Class service like? I'll show you.
What's the Qatar Economy Class inflight entertainment like? I'll show you.

My Failed Delta Economy Class Review

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-10-02 | The plan was to review my economy class flight with Delta from Seattle to Las Vegas and it was all going so well right up to the moment of boarding.

My boarding pass didn't scan properly. We tried again but it was clear this one was a dud. Instead I was issued a new one with the words we all love to hear - You've been Upgraded!

And with that went my economy class flight review.

So now I present to you Delta's domestic first class instead.

Sit, relax and enjoy the ride!

United First Class Domestic: The Honest Verdict

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-09-18 | So how does United Airlines First Class compare? Join me as I fly United First on one of their Airbus A319 aircraft from San Francisco to Seattle and we'll find out.

This is United First - which is the equivalent to business class elsewhere in the world. So how does United First compare to business class with Qantas in Australia or with other full service airlines in Europe? Very well in some areas and very poorly in others.

On this United Airlines Flight Review I give you the honest verdict on United First Class Domestic service ranging from the airport experience through to boarding, pre-departure drink, the seat, the service, inflight catering and inflight entertainment system.

This flight was filmed in early July 2022 and was a connecting flight included in my Air New Zealand long haul business class ticket.

12 hours on Air New Zealands Dorm in the Sky

Join me on part 2 of my Air New Zealand business class journey from Australia to San Francisco.

This second leg is the long haul 12+ hour flight from Auckland to San Francisco. It's a night flight so gives me the chance to really test out the Air New Zealand bed - or should I say Air New Zealand Dorm in the Sky.

The design of the Air NZ business class seat and cabin is unique to say the least. Each business class seat faces inwards, away from the window and towards your fellow passengers. It makes for a very social flight and within minutes I'd made some new friends.

12 hours on Air New Zealand's Dorm in the Sky is the ultimate Air NZ business class flight review.

Join me and let's fly to the US together.

Happy Travels

150 Balloons! Hot Air Ballooning in Turkey

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-08-29 | Join me for the ultimate magic carpet ride above the magical fairy chimney landscape of Cappadocia.

This is the must do hot air balloon Turkey experience that will take your breath away and stay with you forever.

Hot Air Ballooning and Turkey go together like gin and tonic. And Cappadocia serves up the very best as you join up to 150 hot air balloons floating over this magic landscape.

I filmed this in May 2022 as I joined the first Bunnik Tour group back to Turkey post-covid. It was an amazing experience and we jumped at the opportunity to take to the sky in a hot air balloon.

My Flight out of Morocco on a Bulgarian TAP!

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-08-14 | Some flight reviews cover the most luxurious seats and cabins available. This one doesn't.
But this one does feature a lion, a man shouting in the terminal, displays of air crashes before we flew, a ghost, a unique seat warmer and the most beautiful landing view I've ever captured.

All that in one quick 7 minute flight review on an airline that is hard to define.

In today's world of code share flights and wet leases it can be difficult to know what airline you are actually flying. This was one of those cases where even now I'm not sure what I actually flew on my flight between Casablanca Morocco and Lisbon Portugal.

I had booked TAP - Portugal's national airline. However my itinerary said it was operated by Air Bulgaria - something that was further confirmed by the safety card on board. Yet the outside of the aircraft was painted in TAP Express livery. Confused? So am I!

Join me for the flight out of Morocco on a Bulgarian TAP! You'll be in for some surprises. Not least of which was a display of aircraft crashes and rescues at Casablanca Airport!!

There are also some great views out the window and a magnificent ghost curtain protecting the business class passengers from the riff raff seated in economy.

All and all a memorable flight out of Morocco on a Bulgarian TAP!

Enjoy and happy travels

Dennis

Testing Qatars Most Exclusive Lounge followed by a Q-Suite Surprise!

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-07-02 | Most airlines allow their top tier frequent flyers and their top tier alliance partners to access their first class lounge. Not Qatar! Qatar's most exclusive lounge, the Al Safwa First Class Lounge at Doha, is reserved strictly for first class passengers.

Or is it? I found and enjoyed a quirk in the Qatar system. Business class flights from Doha to Cairo are designated First Class by Qatar Airways. This gives business class passengers to Cairo access to Al Safwa.

So naturally I brought my camera along and can now show you exactly what lies behind those exclusive doors!

And then to make my day even better I discovered upon boarding that there had been an aircraft change on the Cairo flight and I was now flying the famous Qatar Q-Suite - the world's best business class!!

Join me and we'll do it together!

Cheers

Our Private Double Suite in the Sky!

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-06-25 | Best flight Ever!

Singapore Airlines A380 First Class Suites sets the new benchmark in first class travel. The sense of space is unprecedented in the sky. This is a real game-changer!

And what’s better than flying first class? Flying first class with someone you love! The best seats for couples are suite 1 and 2 – when that wall comes down the space created is a massive 2 by 5 metres! It was our private double suite in the sky!

The service, the food, the space, the DOUBLE BED! This flight review covers it all.
Join me on a flight of pure indulgence – Sydney to London return would cost almost $14,000AUD per person – I managed do an economy class/business/first class return combo from Australia to Vietnam with one sector in the First Class Suites for $4,000 – and yes I did pay for the tickets.

Singapore Airlines A380 First Class Suites have set the new standard in first class travel!

Losing my Ryanair Virginity

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-06-13 | It's finally happened! After many years of waiting I finally took the plunge and lost my Ryanair virginity!

My first ever Ryanair flight was between Venice and Fes. Which demonstrates perfectly the value and advantage of low cost carriers such as Ryanair and their ability to link secondary cities.

This Ryanair flight review - entitled Losing my Ryanair Virginity - covers the entire process from booking to checkin to boarding, the inflight experience and landing in Fes.

As this was my first Ryanair experience I ticked all the boxes and took all the optional extras. This gave me a flexible ticket, in person check-in, extra luggage and priority boarding and seating. I even pre-ordered my inflight meal!

So join me as I experience the very best that Ryanair has to offer on this Ryanair Flight Review.

Royal Jordanian and Petra with Jeb Brooks

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-06-01 | This is what travel is all about! After years of covid lockdowns and border closures we are finally able to reconnect with the world and each other.

Now that borders are open catching up with great mate and fellow YouTuber Jeb Brooks was at the very top of my to do list. As luck would have it we were both flying into Amman Jordan on the same day. Jeb coming in on the inaugural United Airlines flight from Washington DC and me from Cairo Egypt.

We couldn't let this opportunity pass to jointly film a flight review on Royal Jordanian flying their regional business class. And of course I had to show Jeb Brooks one of my favourite spots in the entire world - the amazing lost city of Petra.

Royal Jordanian Business Class on the A320 is excellent and Jeb Brooks and I review it in full including the onboard dining and the Royal Jordanian business class seat.

In Petra we explored every nook and cranny of this amazing site including the famous Treasury. I even make Jeb Brooks walk all the way up to the Monastery for the most amazing views. We end our visit to Petra as all good visits to Petra should end - enjoying a beer at the Cave Bar talking rubbish with an old mate.

Enjoy this video - we had an absolute ball making it.

Here's the link to Jeb's United Airlines video: youtu.be/VmDug1xUYj0

Thanks for watching and happy travels

Flying out of Australia - Whats it REALLY like now?

DennisBunnik Travels 2022-01-30 | After being closed for almost 2 years Australia's international borders are starting to open up and we are venturing out to explore the world again.

But what's it really like? What's changed? Should you be worried?

In this video I show you what it's really like to fly internationally from Australia now. What you need to do to prepare. What you need to do at the airport. What's changed on board and what transiting through one of the world's biggest airport hubs is like.

This is my first international flight in almost 2 years and to say I'm excited is an understatement. My job, my life and my passion is travel and it has been an incredible struggle to be grounded. But now it's time to fly again. To help rebuild Australia and the world's travel and tourism industries and explore the incredible beauty this planet has to offer.

Join me as I fly with Singapore Airlines from Brisbane, Australia to Colombo, Sri Lanka via Singapore.

I'll be covering my pre-departure preparations and give you tips to make the airport processes as easy as possible.

Onboard we'll savor the famous Singapore Airlines hospitality and look at what's changed in the air.

And finally we'll land in Sri Lanka and tackle the entry formalities before setting off to explore this incredible country.

The purpose of this trip is that I am escorting the very first Bunnik Tours' international departure since March 2020. This is a massive deal and the first step on the road to recovery for our team. For our clients it also marks the return of being able to explore the world in the comfort and joy of a small group tour. For more details on our global small group touring program visit www.bunniktours.com.au

I'll be making videos of our trip around Sri Lanka so look out for them on this channel and the Bunnik Tours YouTube channel.

The Beauty of Emptiness - Outback Flying - William Creek - Lake Eyre - Painted Hills

DennisBunnik Travels 2021-11-18 | Join me for the ultimate outback flying experience as I take off with WrightsAir from William Creek airport. We’ll be flying over the massive Anna Creek Station – the largest cattle station in Australia and one of the largest cattle stations in the world. This is seriously one massive farm!

Our William Creek Wrightsair scenic flight takes us over Lake Eyre, the largest salt lake in Australia. The views of the Lake Eyre Kati Thanda National Park are stunning. Lake Eyre made world headlines when it was the site of Donald Campbell’s land speed record attempt in 1964. Flying across Lake Eyre’s salt flats Campbell broke the world land speed record with a speed of 403miles per hour (648km per hour).

From Lake Eyre we fly to the Painted Hills – the scenic jewel within Anna Creek Station. Anna Creek Station is private property but bush pilot and owner of WrightsAir Trevor Wright has special permission to fly over and land within this incredible landscape. So we did and it was an amazing experience.

If you ever have the chance visit William Creek in South Australia. And when you do make sure you take to the skies on a Wrightsair Scenic Flight from William Creek Airport. My strong recommendation is the flight combining Lake Eyre and the Painted Hills with the landing and walk through this incredible pristine outback environment.

Flying Over Australias Largest Aircraft Parking Lot

DennisBunnik Travels 2021-11-08 | Surreal. Beautiful. Sad. Hopeful. Inspired.

This will go down as one of the most incredible experiences in my life. As an avid avgeek and keen photographer I’ve always dreamt of flying over and photographing an aircraft graveyard. I still hope to do so one day.

This was different though. What we have up in Alice Springs at the moment is not an aircraft graveyard. Rather it is a covid induced parking lot. And that’s very different.

These aircraft are not here because they have reached the end of their economic and productive life. On the contrary, most of these aircraft are in the prime of their life. They’re here because the industry and the world has no use for them. Covid has decimated the global tourism and travel industry and these aircraft, just like the empty airports, closed travel agencies and the empty desks at our office are the visual sign of that.

Each aircraft represents hundreds, if not thousands, of lost jobs, lost dreams and careers that have ended prematurely. They also represent the thousands of families who have been kept apart by this damn virus.

But then as our flight continued I began to see hope and with it my energy and optimism grew.

What we have here are the building blocks of recovery. As vaccination rates increase our world is finally starting to open up it is these aircraft that will help reunite families and restore jobs, hope and dignity to millions around the world.

Each aircraft represents thousands of new jobs and a step towards bringing the world closer together.

An aircraft is pretty useless as city bus. Passionate travel industry people are rarely suited to careers elsewhere. Our challenge now is to bring back both and to rebuild in a better and more sustainable way. Personally, it’s a challenge I look forward to being part of.

If you’d like to see these incredible aircraft in the desert at Australia’s largest aircraft storage facility in Alice Springs I recommend you get in quick. Contact Alice Springs Helicopters https://www.alicespringshelicopters.com.au/ This flight cost me AUD$500 for 20 minutes.

The Ghan - Taking Australias Greatest Train for a Drink

DennisBunnik Travels 2021-11-01 | The Ghan is an Australian icon transporting travellers in luxury the 3,000km from Adelaide to Darwin. It’s a journey that should be on everyone’s To Do list.

Today for the first time ever we’re taking The Ghan for a little day trip as we visit the beautiful Clare Valley wine region. It’s the Taste of the Ghan and you’re invited along for the ride.

Join me as I board Australia’s greatest train the legendary Ghan at Adelaide Parklands Terminal for a day of fine wine and delicious food.

The indulgence starts with bubbles at a pre-boarding welcome function then continues onboard the Ghan with a hearty breakfast. Upon arrival in the Clare Valley we head straight to Pikes Winery for a private tasting of their premium wines. This is followed by the ultimate long lunch on the veranda at O’Leary Walker Wines with stunning views over the vines.

Our day ends with more wine and cheese as our private train in the form of the Ghan transports us back to Adelaide.

Also remember to check out Ifly Aviation's cool review of this trip which includes lunch at Pikes Wines: youtu.be/ftR6Q6Xo150

The 5,500km Cross-Border Passport Dash

DennisBunnik Travels 2021-10-26 | With most of Australia's domestic borders closed and time running out the challenge was to renew my son's Dutch passport before it expired. Once expired that's it - he loses it for ever.

Our only option - to race to Perth, Western Australia before another of their infamous snap border shutdowns sealed our fate.

Join as as we fly from Adelaide to Perth - a return trip of over 5,500km - to renew Jamie's passport. Along the way I'll review both Qantas and Jetstar, we take a close look at Perth, enjoy a lunch at the beach and talk to a local to see if they really want borders to stay closed forever.
