This airline gives a great priority to safety, i work as a technician and had worked on this flight, they don't try cost cutting like other aircrafts mainly on the wheels and brakes
Flew Kam Air RT from DXB to KBL in Oct. '23 on a pair of their A340's as well as a couple of internal flights. The crews, including some women bursars, were always extremely kind and professional. The 'business class' on the A340 isn't 2-2-2 but a very odd 2-4-2 economy layout; the middle section collapses down to a 2-3-2 in the first row (I was in 3A). Even more bizarre is that the bulkhead and bathroom exterior wallpaper wrap is shots of ... Bora Bora, Tahiti (who says that flying isn't aspirational?🙃)
@@l4zr_boy "Should we maybe take down the Tahiti photos?" "Nah, let's leave it up and wait for someone to ask where in Afghanistan it is, then we can all point and laugh at him." "Good idea, boss!"
I'm from Afghanistan, but I was born and raised in New Zealand. Even though I've never been to Afghanistan, the clip from 14:23 to 15:16 is stunning. It's such a beautiful country. I'm extremely saddened by what's currently happening in Afghanistan.
It's a drab, underdeveloped, poor, oppressive region. I'm sure the nature can be beautiful, but every man-made structure oozes "get the hell away from here".
I was a pilot at Kam Air for over 2.5 years. I can confidently say that Kam Air is a well-organized airline with professional management. They strictly adhere to maintenance routines and ensure that their fleet is airworthy. Both cabin and flight crew undergo professional training to maintain high standards of safety. Thank you for the positive review, which not only shows the world but also our fellow Afghans that flying with Kam Air is 100% safe.
Hello, I wanted to reach out to you because I'm currently working on my thesis, focusing on Kam Air Airline. Since you have experience working there, any piece of information or insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
And when there are Russian pilots, and; Kam Air don't buy enough fuel oh and mountains! Of course, that never happened, multiple times! And; that was before the taliban, boy now must be peddle power!
Great video! I flew with Kam Air last year, and was upgraded to Business Class on the return flight. The single plane that has Business was ex Air Tahiti Nui, and still featured a wallpaper with tropical beaches… Good airline, much better than what I had expected.
@haiphucnguyen5861 You won't feel and see many differences if you just visit there for a few days as a tourist. It's a beautiful country just like many other comments here mentioned. You may see the differences only if you find a job, run a business, marry local people there, or live there for long-term. Just like the video said, if you are female and want to be a pilot in KAM Airlines, it may be difficult for now.
I don't think there are any c-130s left in Afghanistan. Besides, there are Blackhawks, many UN planes, C208s, Quest Kodiak 100s, old Ariana A310s and A300B4, and 1 A320-200 of the bankrupt Safi Airways.
I'm proud of my country. Proud of our hospitable, generous people. Afghanistan might be a poor country, but our people are kind, generous, hospitable. Another thing that makes me proud of my people is how clean they are. When it comes to hygiene, we take it very seriously.
You can see at 6:36 that the signs above are still in spanish. It says "life vest is below your seat". It should be the same as to when the plane was flying with Iberia.
Afghanistan is a really beautiful country, I myself have been there twice after the takeover of the Taliban. I met some really cool and friendly people there.
Loved the video. It was very nice to see the review of Kam Air. I know it isn’t your channel’s mission, but I honestly would have loved to know more about what your time on the ground in Kabul was like.
Honestly, I'm impressed wit cleanliness of the aircraft and the meal option onboard Kam Air. Well done to them, you can clearly see they try their very best. 😍
This is certainly one of the rarest airline reviews on RU-vid! And once you leave Afghanistan, could you review Ariana Afghan’s Airbus 310? Love from Australia! 🇦🇺
I really love how you objectively rates Kam Air with best consideration to its current eco-socio-political aspects of Afghanistan. Some may say that the airline services is bare minimun, but those bare minimums for most of Afghani people are in fact a luxury. Thanks for the review btw
Aside from your coverage of airlines and your dedication to it, as an Afghan I loved your remarks on the government and the privilege of a westerners perspective. Nowadays there are a lot of youtubers who travel there and proudly name their videos “traveling to the most dangerous country in the world” ignoring how the local population and minorities suffer under the current regime. They supposedly try to portray the regime from “non mainstream” perspective. Thanks man! 🫡
Kicking off 2024 with one of my favorite aircraft. Thanks! Also I'm praying you to review Starlux, Air Premia, Etihad Residence in 2023, Condor and JetBlue. I'm so ready for everything you guys have in 2024
Finally a new video😍 wow flight to Afghanistan, You really have to have courage and love this world (aviation) to do it, I respect you, these are rare videos that make you really special, thank you bro!!
Thanks for sharing yoir experience on a mysterious airline that not everyone would dare to try! The cabin was very impressive for an airline at this ages. I also didn't expect to there'd be that much legroom.
Please travel with Ariana afghan airline please sir . I am going to Afghanistan with my family in 4&5 months . We are choosing between kam air and Ariana afghan airline . And we saw your video and we were impressed . I hope you fly with Ariana too
The A-340 of Kam Air played an important role in the evacuation of Kabul in August 2021. One of them had been used to evacuate a girl school to Rwanda for example. It was possible to track them on FR24 and to spot them in the news reportage made at Kabul airport at that time.
Nice video! Really surprised with Kam Air's service! Altough their aircraft are quite oudated, they are pretty well mantained. It made me remember of Safi Airways. Too bad that they aren't fliyng anymore. During its best year, Safi Airways got clearance to fly to the EU (Germany) and North America (Canada). Another thing, that since 2021, when the former goverment was ousted by the Taliban, I was wondering about the visa and immigration procedures, as the Afghan embassies are not controlled by them. Once again, congrats for the video! Keep up the good work!
Hey bro, can you board in Airfast Indonesia real quick? I think this is the hardest airline you to board because i heard the 3 MD-80s(The airline's flagship) is gonna retire soon, And i also heard you need to work at a conpany related to the airline for you to even board the plane Im so lucky my father work at the company So please, can you board maybe the last passenger version of the MD-80 series planes before the planes retire?
the foreign embassies might be controlled by remnants of the old afghan government but i suppose whatever authority/immigration officers that actually welcomed you at Kabul airport was on behalf of the Taliban government right?… Do they just accept the fact that people pay for visas at the old government or do they kind of request their own fees upon entering the country?
were there female cabin crew members in KAM air now? If S were they wearing total black? Josh's report had lots of female crew members wearing normal uniforms
There are still female stewardesses on Kam Air. I flew this summer four times and every flight had at least three women (as far as I remember). It could be just the schedule.
"Your safety isn't guaranteed" anywhere. I don't understand why people sometimes say that "we can't guarantee your safety." I mean, nobody can ever "guarantee" your safety. It's literally impossible.
@@4rumani I know. It's just one of those figures of speech that always bothers me since, well, I've already said. Like if someone told me, "I guarantee your safety," that isn't even remotely going to make me feel safe, so what's the point of saying it? It's a completely meaningless saying.
