Additional Comments:
Chaweng is the main nightlife area of Koh Samui so that was where I based myself for my first visit. This footage was taken towards the end of the high season.
On this trip it was around the time of the 'half moon party' so that accounts for some of the bars not being as busy as normal (so I was told).

23:49 , it's totally normal for a A-3xx Familly, we (pilot) call it "The Barking Dog" or "The Ghost ChainSaw" i try to make it simple : Flight controls, brakes and steering systems (among others), are powered by hydraulic systems on aircraft. Those hydraulic systems operate under pressure, some 3,000 psi. the A3xx (A318 - A319 - A320 - A321) family has three independent hydraulic systems. The hydraulic systems are normally pressurized by pumps. For redundancy, the aircraft has alternative ways to pressurize those systems, including electric pumps, a ram air turbine (a little propeller that drops out of the side of the fuselage if needed) and the Power Transfer Unit (PTU). It’s the PTU that makes the barking noise. It transfers hydraulic pressure from one of the systems to the other when there is a measurable pressure difference, 500 psi. between the two. When the pressure drops, the PTU kicks in. The PTU is located near the main landing gear, and that’s why passengers can hear the noise seemingly coming from mid-way down the aisle, under the floor. The barking happens most frequently at the gate and taxi, where most aircraft will run only one engine to save fuel. With one engine off, that engine doesn’t provide power the pump to provide hydraulic pressure in one of the systems. The PTU balances the hydraulic pressure between the two hydraulic systems, and goes on and off as it does so. that's why ^^ I generalized but I hope I was understanding for everyone. I thinks it's the most asked question about the Airbus Familly with the "little hole in the windows" and "the yellow froggy eye on the wings" :)

@peterstoll8366 4 года назад

I love Koh Samui & it's unique airport! Couldn't help but notice the young couple trying to push their way down the aisle of the plane after landing! Don't they know how to relax! Maybe some time on Samui will chill them out a bit!

Flew with Bangkok Airways in March 2024 from Koh Samui to Bangkok, it was brilliant from start to finish, highly recommend Airline✈️

@movienator2 6 лет назад

I’ve been flying with Bangkok Airways since the early 2000’ and was always satisfied. Even if prices are higher you get premium quality. Unfortunately the lounges are always crowded since meanwhile everybody knows that they can be used for free. Two years ago we had a mechanical failure after departure from BKK to Samui but the situation was handled professionally and we changed planes after returning to BKK.

@ribe3434 6 лет назад

Nice work... I like the way you document moments without music, keeping the natural sounds. BTW nice freeze frame on the lounge 😁

Like the way that you are now also travelling on Asian/ and or other carriers and giving us a full overview..trip to airport..the surroundings.. internal and external aircraft videos.. etc..it's a nice progression in your videography..and as a viewer am enjoying it..!!..adds to your "normal" videos.. hope to see more of these types..of Asian trip reports.. also nice background music!! Thanks for sharing..!!!

@stephenwatson8558 6 лет назад

Back when the B was 70 to the £, happy days , Bangkok Airway were doing 3 or 6 flights for a set price . Took 6 , if I remember rightly Samui worked out at somewhere between a third and half price . That package has got to rank as one of the best travel deals I've had .

@user-yv8wy8in3m 6 лет назад

Thank you for your video clips always, I could feel that I am in enjoying vacations in THAI and other places.

@thaimaxcan 6 лет назад

I agree as I heard that noise often and I found the reply on aviation web site: You hear this most often on Airbus 320 series aircraft although others can make a similar noise for similar reasons. The aircraft has two redundant hydraulic systems, each one is pressurized by one of the engines. In the case where one engine has stopped, its related hydraulic system will start to lose pressure. It is a good idea to try to keep this system pressurized so there is a pressure transfer unit (PTU) that uses excess pressure generated by the still running engine to pump up the unpowered system. This is done through a mechanical linkage so there is no risk that a leak in one system could drain fluid or pressure from the other system. On Airbus 320s this PTU is quite loud. Normally one only hears it during the startup and shutdown procedure since it's only at these times that only one engine is running. If you were on a flight where an engine failed you would hear this noise throughout the flight.

Flown many times on domestic flights. The service was always good and surprised the range of food they offer on such short flights. BA could learn a great deal from Bangkok Airways passenger service

Ok... you like to take a taxi to the airport. Now do a video about finding taxi driver that want's to use the meter on sukhumvit

@joshvarghese7084 3 года назад

Never try hailing transport in bkk or anywhere else in S/SE Asia. Use Grab/Ola/Uber or you just get scammed.

@tomdack2705 2 года назад

Sorry for the late comment, I was watching this as I travel to Koh Samui every year but I haven’t been able to due to the pandemic and the sound you mentioned at 23:46 is called the barking dog and is caused by the PTU

@johnblower7232 5 лет назад

Hi, thanks for sharing this video. I found it very helpful and informative. Am heading to Samui in two months for my first visit! (Been to Thailand before)

@tw25rw 6 лет назад

I think that noise is a hydraulic thing they use to open the cargo hold.

@abulhassanalbulushi6880 6 лет назад

@patrickd4468 6 лет назад

My most favourite airport in the world! Honolulu is also open air but lacks the charm of Koh Samui. About 500 THB to share a minibus to Chaweng beach,

@FookG0gle 6 лет назад

Luggage is where the sound comes from. Look at 26:07 tool/machine makes the sounds, when it needs fitting the plane

@christianisekin1215 6 лет назад

What's the difference of spending a vacation in Pattaya or Koh Samui? Except for the tidiness of the beach.

@jppatts5336 6 лет назад

Did you go to Lamai? I like it more than Chaweng

@ianwallace16 5 лет назад

Cheaper options on arrival. Stay at hotel that has airport pick up Walk up ramp to where pick up area is located,go to desk n tell operator which hotel you are staying,mini bus will take you for fraction of cab fare.

@bigchris119 6 лет назад

Hell is that expensive for that short flight! Over 300 Dollar, wow. I went 10 years ago to there and i think i payd not that much..? But the Airport is that sweet small there, and the open transfer busses with all that nice views gives me that much holiday feelings when i went to there. The arc bar looks also like a cool new place to stay. Is the airport louge new? I think i never found them.. only 6 month ahead for my own holidays, huuu...

@davidsuperdavelarson6174 6 лет назад

LOL everything was cheaper 10 years ago. I also could party all night long then as well.

@Jerwym 6 лет назад

You have to give me the best please, Phuket or Samui? What is your favorite at all?

@Bangkok112 6 лет назад

I've only been once to Samui and tons of times to Phuket so can't really compare. Next time in Samui I will probably stay much longer as it was a really great trip and I loved the island vibe. Thanks for watching man :)

@mnlalx6512 6 лет назад

samui is a bit more western vibe (for us better) phuket is more asiatic... in general samui was a bit more friendly ;)

@ilovetongmew 6 лет назад

Unless you want to go Pha-Nhan (full moon party), Phuket is better in most aspects, not to mention it's not very far from Krabi, Phi Phi, Phang-Nga bay and dozens of gorgeous surrounding islands and beaches. Also, the airfare can be much cheaper with budget airlines since the airport is not exclusive to Bangkok Airways.

@thorstenrohlf3479 5 лет назад

Farangset 4495 I was twice on Samui and once on Phuket. Anyone who loves the prettier beaches should choose Samui. Who loves party and nightlife, for whom Patong/Phuket is the better place.

@PrisonerMusic 5 лет назад

Go to Aonang Krabi no contest... Samui is really expensive

@robbiedolan340 6 лет назад

I always find flights to Samui are so expensive compared to flying to most other places in SEA :(

@MrChrlau Год назад

It’s some hydrolics in the wings you can hear 🙂

@garytooncooper145 6 лет назад

Yep taxi at samui airport are a rip off if I fly bkk airways I normally walk out of the airport and get a taxi half the price still expensive but better than 500b if you have time fly air Asia to samui it involves a flight,van and ferry it takes longer but for about the same price for one with bkk airways 2 can get return to samui and the ferry trip is great imo

@davebnly 6 лет назад

Well this truly doesn't show how bad Bangkok airways are! They charge 3-4X the price of other airlines, have old dirty planes, crap food and often unfriendly staff. I prefer to take the long way around. Don Mueng - Surat Thani, then catch the boat across to Samui. It takes about an hour longer but it's a nicer more scenic journey and Nok Air or Thai Lion are much nicer airlines too.

@stefanbeck2052 6 лет назад

What!!! More like 5 hours it’s 1 hour at least to the ferry from the airport, at least half hour wait for ferry then nearly 2 hours on the ferry into Nathon then 30 minutes into Chaweng etc. Not even close add to that if you are flying into Suvanabhum you have to get to Don Meuang. Mate did it recently Samui to Suvanabuhm 9 hours. BKK air 2 hours max.

@marklweb 6 лет назад

They serve a meal on a 1 hour flight? What's up with that?

@mattfullmer4402 6 лет назад

My thought exactly.

@chrispeterson8260 6 лет назад

That is standard on most Asian airlines, they always feed you.

@marklweb 6 лет назад

Nok, PAL, AirAsia - no

@chrispeterson8260 6 лет назад

Those are extremely cheap budget airlines, Air Asia does offer meals for about a dollar on all flights.

@sincerechristine508 6 лет назад

Bangkok Airways own Samui Airport that's why they charge such a high price or its a 12 hour coach or train to Surat thani city, then a coach,ferry, minibus OR fly to Surat Thani

@DavidWoodleyTravelshorts 6 лет назад

Good airline. But price not justified. I know Samui airport is meant to be owned or semi owned by them. But 4 5 or 6 thousand bht one way ticket is a joke. Samui is nice but not that special. Plus you can't drink alcohol on their flight. Food is just standard. But you do get access to the lounge with an economy ticket. But only minimal food and drink selection.

@nikyyo5 6 лет назад

It's not free food, look at the price of your ticket compared to a AA, Nok, or Thai Smile ticket. You're paying for the food through the nose.

4:27 little hint, if any of those flights are going to USA you better believe there will be Federal Air Marshall’s undercover packing their gun, just in case of a terrorist attack...
