Unfortunately at the moment, LOT Polish Airlines has suspended their entire fleet during this pandemic. Hopefully things can get back to normal soon because they're an awesome airline and I really feel for their employees. Also, I've just released a statement on my Community Page regarding this channel and COVID-19. Stay safe & healthy everyone!
Same to you. This virus from hell has even affected domestic travel in the United States and Canada , places where I travel to mostly because of my sports and travel blog.
Another great video Jazzguy! Nice to see you pass through my home airport, you actually flew over the town that I live in at the moment: Amstelveen. Anyway, service looks perfectly fine for this short flight, love the views outside as well 😀 Regards, Brendan
I'm so jealous! I wanted to get on SP-LWF for my flight back to Heathrow on the 1st of January 2020, but they gave SP-LWA (the first 737-800 given to LOT, 15 y/o and no sky interior) instead. Wasn't a bad flight, But I wanted the sky interior haha. Great trip report, I've been waiting for one on this particular aircraft.
You can print bagtag at kiosks for LO flights - I don't know why it didn't allow You to do it. Perhaps you didn't answer NO to all 3 questions. Also "luggage drop off" check-ins were on opposite side and You went to full normal check-in but it doesn't really matter. Hope You enjoyed our self-check-in kiosks :)
While I am watching this video, I received a news alert the State Department told all Americans abroad to fly home. Coronavirus is shutting the world down. I imagine all you trip reporters are going to be sidelined for a period of time with no flights to take. Good video as always!
Today my birthday March 19 and I luv airplanes and love seeing how you travel and how the planes are the way they look in side which was kinda wierd but I'ma make sure to sub and hit that notification bye.
Although an avgeek myself,wondering why you didn't choose to fly LOT nonstop to Chicago. That E-190 from Venice,if it indeed just landed,why was it being towed to the gate? I'm guessing you have some degree of Polish ancestry,your use of on-screen Polish and translating that candy bar wrapper along with the currency conversion from the zloty to USD. Does Poland use the euro? What alliance do you favor? Here it seems to be the Star Alliance--LOT and UA being members--Air Baltic seems to have a mini-hub at AMS,what with 4 aircraft parked. Just now read your Community page Covid-related drama--I'm tempted to fly a short-haul flight,say HOU-MSY, just to see what the load factor is like in this new era we are all experiencing--seems like it would be a great time to fly,seat selection is wide open,perhaps US airlines will drop fares to induce folks to fly--we all know they are burning LOTS of cash,have bills to pay just as we do. I'm expecting another 'shoe to drop' in way of a mandate to discourage flying unless ABSOLUTELY necessary--I"m not afraid of picking up the virus,thank god the US hasn't gone the way of Spain and Italy with total lockdown which would devastate the economy
im having online classes until the end of the semester due to this coronavirus outbreak starting march 30th ending may 7th currently on an extended spring break right now as faculty are developing plans for online teaching
