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!

Good corporate affairs action. A lot of flip-flops in that boarding-line. Don't think I'll be using Bamboo if I make it to Vietnam. Rather than taking internal flights, I think I would risk a train or a bus. Looking forward to your coverage of Gulf Air, who looked after me very well when I last flew them, in the front.

Thank you for sharing. You may be correct that Vingroup is behind the acquisition of Bamboo Airways as they have shelved their plan to start their own airline previously. Agreed with you that any flight attendant used the word "off" is downright arrogant & rude. If Bamboo airways collapses in the future is probably due to the rudeness of their flight attendants and the quality of their onboard food

I doubt vin group will buy bamboo airlines,they current too focus on the vinfast brand,we all know how car company are costly and it will take years for vinfast to be self sufficient and made some sort of profit. before they may start a airlines cause vin group can used bond to gather money for it and loans from bank,but current govt doing crack down on bond market and bank loans

wish I saw your review before I booked with this airline. A total disaster with their out-dated online booking system and then there were blames everywhere and no one took the responsibility. Mind you I booked business class for a long haul flight and their customer service is overall 0/100. Wonder what economy class gets? Their rep at where I live cannot understand English so I had to get a Vietnamese speaking to them. I’m now stuck with them for upcoming return trips but never again flying with Bamboo. P.s, that Banh Mi is laughable lol
