Hi Lee. My name is Keith. I just want to thank you for your wonderful youtube videos. I only came across them about a year ago but have been an avid viewer since. I lost my wife over 8 years ago and my brother last year. When I watch you, it feels like a friend talking to me, which I need right now. I really am grateful .Onwards my friend ❤

Like you Lee, I have always been a great believer of the 'it's 5 o'clock somewhere' rule. Keep up the good work, enjoying your latest offerings particularly your Oz travelogue!

10:52 it’s called a taxiway!

I'm jealous. Lee must have a pretty high social credit score (SCS) to be able to jet all over the world in such a short period of time.

Wow! You’re so positive! So happy and cheerful! Not many can make me subscribe from one video! Congrats Lee! You’ve done it in one!

I love your travelogs as I feel like I've had a holiday after watching you without leaving the comfort of my chair Lee. 😄

You have said in the past it's not a holiday it's work..pull the other leg Lee it's got Bell's on it 😅

Exited when we saw you were going to Phaphos. Travelled on the same day only from Manchester. Staying in the hotel next to you (spotted the wall light from yesterday's vid) and looking forward to seeing what you get up to in your superb videos. Have a great time, Cliff & Alex

Shots of wheely cases & eating the same English food have their limitations!

Blimmin Heck Lee. That Aussie tan is just kicking in. Be careful . You will be Tango man colour lol. Great vlog .Have a GREAT time.👍

Lee: I really enjoyed this one. I even shared it with my 91 year old mum. I just love the music you choose for your videos. Looking forward to more. Cheers 😊

Has the life of Riley this guy.

The experience was truly fantastic and evoked numerous delightful recollections of my trip with Jet2 to Cyprus. Thank you for sharing😍✨

@12.21 I have travelled TUI Many times from EMA, Never had a problem!

Lee notice your colour compared to other people walking past. Can't beat the Aussie tan 🇦🇺😊

Been waiting on this set of videos coming can't wait to see what you get up to, onwards my friends 😊

This is fab for me watching you as i start back in the travel industry tomorrow not been in the travel sector for years !!!! so this is giving me the motivation infact today im going to re-watch loads of your content abroad to put me in the right mindset for tomorrow thanks for bringing us with you on all our travels !!!!

Loved watching this video, really Hope you have fabulous time in Cyprus. I would love to see you visiting Mallorca at some point. I worked there for 9 seasons and it's the most beautiful island with great food and some great places to explore.

Taxiway from the runway then the area outside the terminal is called the apron I believe.

Lee deserves a RU-vid award for his thumbnails. 😂😂😂🏆

Have a great time Lee,all this travelling looks like hard work mate 👍

Hi Lee, I really enjoyed watching your plane journey to Paphos, Cyprus. I've always booked with TUI for holidays as they're always reliable, always happy to help, nothing is too much trouble, and I've never had any problems or delays with them. I'm going on holiday to Benidorm in June this year, and the only thing that TUI has done that they've never done to me before is change my flight time. I don't see this as a problem, though as long as I get to Benidorm, I'm not bothered at what time I fly. I hope you have a great holiday. ✈️🎬🕶🏖🌴🍻

Love the way the wings flex on take off 👍👍

Another great vlog, Lee 👏 I worked for Tui for over 20 hours and then covid hit, and that's when I decided on a career change. All the times I've travelled with Tui I never had a bad experience, definitely try them out ✈️

Love the journey vlogs...captures that holiday vibe...🌴🏖🌞

first time id been on a plane for 12 years was last october to portugal, went with jet2 and they were so helpfull with everything from start to finish, 10 out of 10

Great video Lee, really enjoyed and i look forward to your upccoming videos in Cyprus😊👍

No matter where and when you fly, that seatbelt should ALWAYS be fastened!!

You asked for land marks, well you would have flown by the airport heading towards Petra tou Romiou ( Aphrodite’s Rock) then make a sweeping turn back to Paphos airport. I live in Pafos, and good to see you have come to our beautiful island for a holiday. Fabulous place to live and great for tourists wishing to escape the continuous cold, wind and rain in the UK. Enjoy our warmth and sun, not to mention the gorgeous sunsets we have😊.

I was in Paphos last month. Its worth doing the promenade walk from the small Greek church into paphos Harbour. Around 5km walk but beautiful walking past the grounds of the hotels with the sea to ur side. Also when on a plane u should still be able to use Google maps even without a network connection the GPS will pick up ur location however can take a minute of so. Enjoy and love the videos

I like listening to the background music 🎶. It’s a nice touch.

Hi Lee.. We recommend Georges fish bar in Akrotiri. You can drive right up to RAF Akrotiri passing a salt lake with pink flamingo's on & a lovely restuarant as well. There also a pub! We spent many times there when my son was based in RAF base. Also Fanagusta which is famous back in the 60's for a desserted town due to conflict. Thats by nicosia!!! Enjoy Lee. We love Cyprus...

Great video Lee, we were in Paphos 2 weeks ago, beautiful, and the flight from Jet2 from Birmingham was Full ! Enjoy paradise

Hey Lee. The tarmac which enters the runway is called a “taxiway” the line between the runway and taxiway is the “holding position” 🙂

From take off for a good 15 minutes I could have been sat next to you, it was so calming, especially having a yorkshire tea. Enjoy watching your travels so much, please keep doing what you do

The 737 you flew on was an older variant (800 series) which is not the type that had a panel blow out, that was a 737 Max.

i went to Pathos in the 90s with friends for Christmas/ new year 10 years in a row for 2 weeks 1/2 board in the same hotel for around £300 pp loved the place. i always remember the midnight swim Christmas day. we go to everyone by name and they remembered us even in the bars in town we used to take them presents like wigan rugby shirts and scarfs and we got the old security guard of the hotel a kabab on our way home from a night out about 3 am and he would give us a few drinks from behind the bar lol oh and there was a 2ft parrot named sammy roaming free in the hotel bar that would drink your short if you left it un guarded. prices was short £0.50 . pint £1. cocktail £2 . kebab £3 . meal out £5-10 depending on what you fancied

Lee my first time abroad was to Cyprus as a rookie squaddie. Driving thru the countryside with trees bearing oranges was totally exotic gobsmacking for me as a Brit townie. Soooo looking fwd to this series.

Off to beautiful Paphos in 11 weeks 🙌, really looking forward to your videos Lee! Have a great time xx

We always fly from Manchester so was a first time for us to fly from East Midlands in February with Jet2 and I must say the staff in the airport were superb, very polite and the whole experience to Fuerteventura was top notch, a lovely 5 night break in the sun..😎☀️ Great video keep up the good work..👍

Flew to malaga on TUI a few weeks ago. Seats reclined and usb power at your seat. WINNER WINNER!!

Thank you for taking us along. I'm excited to see what happens next! 😀

Great Video Lee. Cyprus is an amazing place. I am hoping to travel to Paphos sometime this year from East Midlands. Looking forward to seeing the sights around the area with you. I was told the Kebabs are really good there too. Onwards my friend

Enjoy Cyprus Lee xxxx we love it there my sister is home from sunny Perth she had everyone watching ur videos from when u were in sunny Australia xxxxx

You were asking if TUI are a good airline. I have used them for the last two years and am using them again this year, flying from Manchester to Orlando melbourne . Fly premier class, fantastic airline, never had any issues

Good man lee...Enjoy cyprus..Great vlogg as allways...onwards👍🏻

Lovely flight nice and steady onwards my friends 👍😀

Back when i used to go regular, it was Monarch or Cypriot airways, Cypriot was the better, as you felt your Hol started right away, Keo beer, and local food served as the in flight meal, When there was such a thing on a 4 hour flight ! Enjoy the time spent there, Its changed a lot !!

Nice won Lee look forward to that ! I'm off to Tunisia Sousse for 3 weeks All inclusive on wed so im Puffed up ! Little john from chichester

I always used to.fly TUI, when they were called Thomsons. Never had a single flight on time, so I ditched them. Looking forward to Cyprus vlogs.

Another travel day brilliant onwards my friend let's go 😀

We love TUI and would never go with any other company, we even went on a cruise with them and it was amazing. My husband is disabled and they look after him so well

16:17 I’m sure you know but it’s the ground APU system to save fuel on the aircraft.

What the planes stand on is the apron and TUI is a Brent airline been to BENIDORM many times, and we have been on the dream liner 787 many times, always been polite and courteous and never been delayed all at all. Highly recommended. Have a good one. 👍👍👍👏👏🍺🍺

Try to get over to Santorini while your over there! it's Stunning it really is

Welcome to Cyprus. Great vlog always fly Jet2 when back visiting the. Pity you are not on the Aya Napa side we live. Enjoy your time. Colin

Another excellent video! I was hoping MacMaster if you could tell us about any plans for you to do Route 66? The series would be amazing. Imagine the people you speak to in local tourist shops and diners. A Route 66 series would go viral!

Looks like the Athena Beach Hotel to me. My late mum and stepdad were regular visitors to Cyprus especially Paphos and have stayed in many of those hotels. I remember driving along that road with my mum pointing out the hothey had stayed in or visited. My wife and I preferred Limassol

was there on tues and friday as i went to Alicante for Benidorm :) flew with jet2

I know you won’t have time for this in a while because of your busy schedule; However, if you get some downtime during some snowy day at home, you might want to do a video just on how you pack trips. It’s quite clear that your suitcase is small and very efficient. I know your backpack is full of mostly electronics.. I think you can give us all some great tips on packing.

Hi lee glad you eventually got to Cyprus we have been staying in protaras and they have the best fish and chips it's called mr cod please try and also you must try the lamb kleftico Enjoy your stay .Billy

Hi Lee when in Paphos try T&J fish and chips supposed to be brilliant.❤

How does your missus put up with you being away? Lol, enjoy Lee, loves the videos

Great editing Lee. You certainly get the most out of your iPhone.

That breakfast looked really good onwards 😊

Grate vlog Lee have a good holiday thanks.

Hiya Lee. Welcome to Cyprus. Wish I could be there. Roll on May. TUI are ok but we think Jet2 are the best. Always friendly and polite. Don’t forget Pelican restaurant on the harbour front and don’t forget to look out for Miss Cocoa. 😎

Went to school in Cyprus in 1967 ( RAF brat ) aged 16. Best time of my life in Akrotiri.

Booked with tui for the most of my life, been really good airline and they’d do last minute package holiday as well 😊

The electrical apparatus you saw connected to the aircraft on the ground at east Midlands was an AGPU (Aircraft ground power unit). It supplies electrical power to the aircraft to provide the power necessary to do what has to be done in preparing the aircraft for the next flight. The other option is for the flight crew to use the APU (Auxiliary power unit) which is a small jet engine located in the tail of the aircraft which supplies power, and can also supply pneumatic power to aid in starting one of the main engines if there is an issue with starting. Although there are two downsides to an APU. 1. Noise which affects ground staff and embarking/disembarking passengers. 2. The fact the APU uses jet fuel from the aircraft's fuel tanks which has a $$ cost. If an aircraft has been fueled, but due to an unexpectedly long delay the APU has been sucking fuel for longer than expected, it has happened that additional fuel has had to be uplifted. Typically this would only happen on long flights such as Sydney to Dubai in an A380 for example where fuel management isn't as free and easy as a 737 flying from Sydney to Melbourne. I know, I've experienced it. A real pain in the.......

Haven't flown TUI since the Thomson Airways and Thomsonfly days

Flying with Tui early May to Malaga with the family for 10 nights. Have only flown with BA, EasyJet, Norwegian and RyanAir in the past so hopefully it will be ok.

I enjoyed watching your flight to Cyprus lee have a great holiday over ther it does look nice and sunny over there

To view a map of where you’re going on an iPhone on a plane, open Apple maps whilst you’re in the airport so you can see where you are and the destination you’re going to. When you have done that zoom into the location, you are going, then zoom back out again, showing your location where you are and where you’re going to so you can see it on the screen. When you’re on the plane more helpful, if you’re sitting next to Window, turn on the GPS, it takes quite awhile for Location to be picked up where you are then it’ll lock onto the satellites and then you can see where you are going in real time, but it only works if you preload the map onto your phone before you leave.

Another plus with Jet2 is they take cash unlike other airlines.

I always smile when I hear of the cost of living crisis, I always say look at airports, they are always full, no doubt there are people who are struggling. Have a great time Lee.

First holiday I had in Paphos rented a motorbike out no lights and no brakes omg

It is the new "Budget" Alan Wicker .

taxiway when they come off the runway :)

Tui great to fly with , but easyjet have more roomy seats 😊

Brilliant in my opinion been with them to Florida numerous times far better than virgin Atlantic

Getting the proof for Geoff ✈️✈️🌧️

Hi Lee, please try Tea for Two, just up the road from your hotel. British food and a decent full English! 😊

Well when I was there 5 years ago this was one of the best Ive ever had Mandria Fish & Chips (enjoy)

We always fly with Jet2. My husband (Mr MG) isn't a particularly good flyer and they look after him. The landing in Paphos is the most magical view on the planet. Both day and night. I cry when I can see our island coastline, and know we're almost with family again. Makes me laugh then, because its a Cypriot tradition to clap and applaud when the wheels touch down 😂 Not too keen on takeoff though. Both because we're leaving and the plane almost runs out of tarmac whilst its flapping like a goose to get airborne!

Lee, can't wait to see if you review a meze meal, i think when i was last in Cyprus it was about 15 dishes or more with unlimited wine, cheers, enjoy.

Morning Mr Mac, Lee, in answer to your question, what are tui like to travel with, they are on par with jet 2, we really enjoyed our in flight service, try and give them a go. Beverley, from cleethorpes. X Oh, and congrats, 165, well done my friend.❤

Don’t forget Namaste Indian in Paphos if you fancy a curry. For local food try Hondros. Walk from from past bus station across roundabout up hill and on the left. Very reasonable and great steaks and other food

Lee, been formal cabin cree with another airline, Jet2 are good but I have found TUI inboard flight service more relaxed and easy going, better value and overall pleasant experience

on a tui dreamliner aircraft they do have maps on the seats in front of u so u can see the route, altitude

The only thing missing from the bar area was tumbleweed and zombies.

Another great video Lee....I love seeing other aircraft pass nearby. As for land marks during the flight..I noticed Blackpool tower...River Themes....Berlin wall...and landing at Cyprus was White cliffs of Dover. Enjoy Cyprus bud....Rogie.

Lee, what you saw was secondary power for the aircraft whilst the engines are not running. It supplies electric for lighting, fridges etc...

there's a little garmin receiver that you connect to your phone that gives good gps reception called GLO2. People use em while sailing, i assume they work inside a plane. There's also very cheap no-brand copies on ebay under a tenner, dont know how well they work.

Thankyou absolutely fabulous brought back so many wonderful memories of jet2 and Cyprus

looking forward to this so far i noticed that the roads have inproved.

Jet 2 are currently in the process of replacing all their aircraft to airbus a321 neo’s, at the minute the neo’s only operate from Birmingham and Manchester but this will be changing as they get more delivered

Cyprus is fantastic… enjoy

We fly every year to Orlando with TUI on their Dreamliner.. its only £499 extra to fly there and back Premium class. With premium you also get free airport lounge access and fast track security
