The WORST Flight of 2022: Air India Regional

--
Well this flight ended up being my worst flight of 2022. I'd gone in expecting it to be the highlight of my trip to India - but, thanks to airport security and a filthy aircraft, it ended up being anything but.

I respect your transparency Noel, you seemed unusually deflated in this video. Thanks for your hard work and continued Sunday entertainment, looking forward to more in 2023!

The saying "expect the unexpected" is under stated. Your day started off rough, however checking into that beautiful hotel was making things look up. That town was really picturesque. Another hidden gem you uncovered. Great way to end 2022 and the best is yet to come. Happy New Year to you and your family.

As an Indian American, I agree with the fact that Indian airport security screening is not a pleasant experience, these security officers are uneducated and often abuse their powers thinking they know all the rules and laws. The worst experience I have had was at Amritsar (ATQ) airport, where the security were really rude and made me empty my entire bag just because I didn’t take out my chargers. This is ridiculous.

I used to fly out of Bengaluru fairly often and did a domestic flight or two. The best security was the sniper standing over the ticket counters and the machine gun nest at the airport entrance. Made me feel very safe.

I'm sorry but how is the worst flight of the year due to a dirty window

[markhodge]

That cow, walking up the middle of the road, totally owned his path. LOL

Once again you owe yet another airline an apology for a totally bogus video title. They did nothing wrong all your doing is trying to grab attention the wrong way. Its a shame all your videos are going down that crappy path. This should have been your best flight had you been paying better attention at 12:37

You didn't sound out of line at all, you were extremely polite! Also I've been using safety razors since 2016 and I'm so glad I switched over! The blades are so much cheaper, especially if you order online. The only catch is not being able to carry the blades on airplanes. I'm also looking forward to checking out Kullu in Microsoft Flight Simulator.

I really can’t see anything bad about that flight. You were just a bit hassled by your treatment at Delhi security. How can it be your worst flight of 2022?

[Papershields]

I understand completely, some travel days are just rough like that. People are rude, it’s hot, things are expensive and uncomfortable. For me on days like that I just have to lean back and embrace the suck. Just say like, “this day is just going to be what it is, tomorrow will be better.”

As someone who got stuck for 3 days in the Philippines in a Typhoon, 1 day in Longyearbyen because of freezing fog and arriving 2 days late due Technical SIN-SYD-AKL, I sympathise, 19 years in Airline Ops taught me better than most to plan A, B, C but the universe doesn't always listen. to your plans. Happy New Year to you and the family Noel, may 2023 be filled with learning and success.

Five star hotels, Airport lounges, Priority queues, and Business class seats seem to have thinned Noels skin a bit?

What was actually bad about the flight other than the dirty windows??

[richardchristman]

It seems you were pleased you didn't return to Delhi once you were at the hotel. Cheers for the great videos in 2022, Noel. Looking forward to more travels with you in 2023.

[GawYT]

Wow it must be so stressful to empty a bag into a tray and to experience a dirty window. Glad you went through this ordeal for us Noel.

Complain, sigh, “but nevermind”, sigh, complain, sign, “but nevermind”, complain, sign. Repeat.

[johncollier]

No need to apologise, Noel. While security is a serious business, airport personnel can still be courteous when performing thier duties. Iwould b miffed if the content of my bag were un-ceremoniously dumped out. I'd be compelled to say something, which would probably be unwise. Shame the trip didn't quite go according to plan, though. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year.

[notreyf]

Thank you Noel. Happy New Year to you and your family. Hope you all have a wonderful 2023.

[jabariphillips]

Glad Noel you weren't a passenger that saw their flight take-off while on the bus to the plane.

Gotta say the view behind you when you moved to the port side (12:36) was more interesting than anything out of the window 🤣🤣🤣
