Story time with Simon! Love a flight formula nostalgic story. Hats off to Mum for enabling your interest in aviation. Your style is so unique in the flight review you tube space. Kudos to you mate!

Best flight reviewer on YouTube. It’s not just a review, it’s entertainment.

Great video and I’ve been enjoying your channel since I found it a few days ago. I’ve been a hawaiian airlines flight attendant for 18 years now and I appreciate you respectfully mentioning the merger/ acquisition between us and Alaska. It’s def a touchy subject but we are all hoping it’s for the best. Looking forward to more informative content from you in the future. Cheers!

As a former AS employee, to this day, I will only fly AS wherever it flies to. The amount of pride we have for the airline and the care journey for customers is unmatched by the top 4. If I could go back, I would do it in a heartbeat. And I can confirm…no one knows for sure who the native Eskimo on the tail really is. It’s one big speculation!

Love the origin story montage, good on Mum!
A Flight Formula Flashback ep would get a 👍🏻 from me…

[gmart]

loved the little Genesis of Simon detour

[scottjohnson]

Man you give me joy with your vids. Loved the home move reals also!

Thanks for covering my hometown carrier! Fun watch as usual :)

Side note- your logo research is sound (and I agree with your image comparison) but we’ve always referred to the guy in the back as ‘Chester’.

I’ve flown to Seattle from Southern California countless times and getting an an Alaska Airlines flight is always my favorite. One time I flew on United from Palm Springs to LAX to Seattle, and that itinerary was hilarious. Flying to LAX from Palm Springs was such a funny flight and it felt so pointless. Of course I booked that flight on purpose

Flight Formula helps me learn what tangents are in my trig class, but the interesting version

6:51 On Alaska, you can pre-order a meal on their app 1 week before your departure.

Great video and a great idea buying wine for points. I still think it's Bob Ross's face lol

[mfgdean]

Reminds me of when I was a kid I convinced my parents to buy US Airways miles when they had 100% bonus. The three of us went to Greece in Business on LH for around 2.5K total at the time if I remember correctly. Lifemiles used to be the sweet spot in buying miles for flights, however they sadly revalued. Gone is the 16.5K JFK-GVA on Swiss. Keep on the videos! Also, supposedly PVD airport has the best US Airport bathroom. Didn't know HNLs were good as well.

And while the Eskimo is definitely a composite of many, the biggest influence is Oliver, BUT the Eskimo on the tail is known internally as Chester.
