Hey Jeb,
There's the elephant in the room which you've yet to address:
How does your video-ing of every step of a premium flight affect how an airline treats you?
First- if you are filming when you board, every airline will go overboard to please you. If you board in premium, you then are treated to the hilt.
Once you encounter ANYONE with an airline (eg check-in, gate agent, club lounge agent, etc, they will endeavor to make your trip special, as they understand how social media works these days. I wonder how you might be treated if you flew first class but did not film it. No doubt, you would not give any airline a 25 Jeb Score.
I recall watching when a certain airline (Garuda) had switched planes on you, and then, miraculously, you were then placed on a first class flight with no other passengers in premium. Didn't you suspect something? Why did you not redo your Garuda video? You're too intelligent not to realize this quandry.
When you demonstrate that you are taking video and acting as an influencer, don't you realize that the airlines are then treating you in a manner unobtainable to regular folk? Thus, your JebScore is blatantly biased/inaccurate.
We welcome your thoughts.

That Japanese Automatic Beer Machine at the airport doesn't pass Dutch standard, they will complain about sleepy foam, even myself too.
We love full bodied foam up to the lip of the glass. LOL
Garuda Indonesia (Skytrax 5 star airline.
Many Times World's Best Cabin Crew and World's Best Economy Class.
The very first long distance flight in the world was between The Netherlands and Indonesia. And the very first Airplane of this just 75 years old Republic of Indonesia was a present from our Forefathers here on Sumatra.

The best part about these airline videos is seeing the menu for the flight. I always pick the meal I'd choose and then hope that the author chose the same dish so that I could see how the meal was plated. I'm not a vegetarian, but I noticed that on this flight, there was no vegetarian option. Did Garuda perhaps knows you were not a vegetarian and so only offered perhaps, a menu with no vegetarian option?

Hello Jeb, thanks for sharing. I must say the service was second to none. My only beef was the sound quality on the video in certain sections. Your voice was drowned out by the plane's engines, but apart from that it was great. I see this video was made 5 years ago. Och weil; better late than never I say. Cheers!

Hoy Jeb,
I've flown to Indonesia at least 5x via Schipol (AMS. I'm based in Amsterdam.
My secretary automatically tries to book me on KLM, and I remind her to buy tix on Garuda.
Truth be told, let's re-evaluate airlines once the pandemic has passed us by. No airline is operating normally now.

I'm definitely the same way!
When I'm walking down the jet bridge, it's like a kid on Christmas Day lol.
I CAN'T WAIT!
Thankfully I usually get to preboard because of my visual impairment and I don't have to worry about slow people in front of me LOL

Always a good video. Thank you. Have you thought about collecting the various airlines amenity kits and auctioning them on your videos? Some of who cannot travel the world would love to purchase on of those kits. Thanks again, from Nome, Alaska, USA.

I have been on it, so I should have remembered, but the train to/from downtown Tokyo and Narita being an hour-long is outrageous! I thought it was quicker than that, but you say so and other online sources agree with you.

While I like the idea of great service, I am not sure I would enjoy the stalking feeling of being watched and the staff following you around the cabin, changing your shoes into slippers etc.

The Indonesian people are like no other. The kindness and charm is unforgettable. I'm glad you enjoyed this also. I've flown around Indonesia many times - but never on Garuda! Hopefully soon

Great video and a wonderful flight! Did your Mom really teach you as a child not to eat with your fingers while being filmed? She must have known youd end up in pictures from a young age.

That camera is just the stud used to keep the curtain attached to the bulkhead, it clips onto the curtain. Yes there is cameras in the crew areas but that isn't one of them

Looked like a fantastic airline experience! I wish your inflight narration could have been easier to hear, though. The engine noise nearly drowned out your comments.

When you were talking about the jet bridge, was it a special first class jet bridge or the only jet bridge and you were the only passenger on the plane?

Garuda has historically suffered a bad perception, and in some ways not without reason but they have really moved forward and are really a great airline

Is it okay if we start calling you King Jeb Brooks after seeing this video?
That's awesome that you got the whole plane to yourself.

As a kid, we used to go over to SeaTac once in a while and the whole family would do some plane spotting, Mom, Dad and 6 kids.
