Backwards and forwards across the Atlantic. Afraid of the water no, conscious yes. I am aware that getting to a runway increases our chances of survival dramatically over ditching in an ocean if there’s an emergency. I try to put it out of mind thinking the stats will save me. However, there’s something very special about being 40,000 ft and remote.

The thought of taking a cruise ship across an ocean is much more scary to me than flying over an ocean. (Titanic syndrome). Although you have a fighting chance if there are enough life boats! Delays and plane changes are a drag but better safe than sorry.

A proper review of Aviancas business class! I'm flying Bogota London on 3K in August. Can't wait!! Flew years ago in their 767's but their business class was like premium economy nowadays.

I know some people love the whole flying experience, but to me it's just a method of getting from a to b. My last flight earlier this year was 11 hours, and to me it was just 11 hours of boredom. Unfortunately no matter what I do, I have never been able to sleep on a plane. Interesting review as always however.

As much as I like your videos I always find a need of a rating of overall experience. I mentioned it in another comment as well that an overall rating at the end of video would make ur reviews a complete package. You can rate the experience on key factors like, - The Seat Comfort and Space - The Bedding and Sleep Quality - The Variety and Quality of Food - The Crew etiquette and Serive Standard - Extras like a Snack Bar, Presentation of Food in different Courses etc. It would give a better idea about your experience and no one needs guessing.

@luxurytravelexpert 5 лет назад

Bogota's El Dorado airport is located at an altitude of 2548 m (8361 ft), so it is known as a 'hot and high' airport, with low air density and thus reduced performance of the aircraft's engine. Consequently, airplanes require a longer takeoff run.
