Went to Washington from Paris a few month ago for as cheap as 200€ so 185$ and it was really okay and amazingly cheap !! Yes it's the price for both tickets Of course no meal/no TV/no outlet but you still can order some snack and drinks even if it was very expensive. The crew is friendly and composed of only iceland so you know what to expect :)
Oh my God, I got very scared at the beginning when you were lost! I have tickets already on Play for New York to Iceland to Amsterdam, so I hope it goes smoothly. The airport in New York is close to my house, so that’s a bonus, and I chose to pay for extra room and extra everything online. Your report was very good and enjoyable to watch!
@@user-gd8tz2ok4i As I said, the airport is close to my house, and the airline doesn’t provide point-to-point services, only hub-and-spoke. Yes, I can drive to JFK or Newark for many nonstop options. But it’s a headache and those airports are chaotic. The transfer in Iceland is far more convenient for me. Did I answer your question?
@@user-gd8tz2ok4iprobably got a stopover, theyre free. it just lets the airline use aircraft that dont use as much fuel because they wont need to fly full distance.
As it turned out, the roundtrips on Play were great. Everything was on-time, the connection was easy, the staff were nice. No complaints. Yes, everything costs extra unless you purchase a package at the time of booking, and there is no inflight entertainment. But the convenience and price more than make up for it. I’d be happy to fly with Play anytime.
I recently had to fly to Washington from Amsterdam. United offered me nonstop flights outward and return including one checked bag one food. It cost me 800$. Play Airlines would have cost 830$ for the same standtard execept having a stopover. So I would always avoid low cost airlines and such stop overs. After all, the price is the same or even more expensive and you lose time.
It all depends really. In those situations, yes you should fly with United cause you’re not getting any value with Play. But for me if I’m heading to the US from Dublin and it’s between a €300 return with Play or a €800 with Aer Lingus or Delta I know which I’m choosing😅
Omg,I like your perseverance & was nervous for, while at the same time enjoy listening. Happy u made it, that bus driver should at least offer u some suggestions. Shame on him
Hey thanks for sharing your experience! I was skeptical about the airline due to the cheapest cost LOL. Do you remember how much a bottle of water costs during flight?
Thank you for watching! I don't remember how much a water was but according to the menu it should be 1 Euro for an "Icelandic Water" whatever that means (and 3 for a soda).
At least someone got the reference hahhaha. About my hand-luggage: It's some no name bag from Temu tbh😂 The bag was way too big I think and there was also an annoying metal tube under the seat...
That's why is called "Budget Flight". You pay waaaay less than other plane companies and not having entertainment unit will save you tons of money. Just download some music or movies on your phone ot tablet and you'll be fine.
Actually my main reason to go to Iceland was to try Play Airlines and do this video😂 Since I have never been to Iceland I stopped for 2 nights near Reykjavik to at least see something of the country. I am a Freelancer in the area of Performance Marketing, and I work remotely.
Just that they didn't ask you to put it in the sizer. My bag is too big by a few cm on each side but I don't want to buy another bag or add a carry on for £48 each way!!
@@gideonb93 Please tell RU-vid what you do want. Travel with a bag that is too big by a few cm on EACH side (against the terms and conditions of the contract you enter into with the airline) and be pandered to? Is that what you want? Please do let us all know.
