Here's What Happens When You Fly Tajikistan's National Airline

I took a flight on Tajikistan's National Airline, Somon Air, to find out just what they're like!

Thank you very much for a wonderful review! 🙏 We are always happy to see you onboard! ✈️

What a sweet and polite young man you found on this flight. As always another fun watch as you travel on the different airlines around the world.

Kid: "My name is Samir"
Noel: "Oh Samuel, my son is called Samuel"
😂😂😂

How many times can you mention Tajikistan and Dushanbe.
Noel: Yes

Just discovered that Uzbekistan Airlines has a transatlantic flight from Tashkent to New York. This seems like something Noel should try!

Tojikiston is a very beautiful country. the people are very kind, they respect their guests very much. Always kind of tourists. I recommend everyone to come to Tajikistan 🇹🇯🇹🇯🙏✌️👌

Fun fact, "Dushanbe" means Monday in Persian, and the "Du" is the number 2, because it's two days after Saturday, "Shanbe", the sabbath day in the Zororastrian tradition (whose calendar informed the Jewish calendar and its own shabbat). Since the 7th Century this area has been Muslim where the big day off is Friday, thus after Panjshanbe comes "Jumma", the Arabic word for Friday and the holiest day of the week in Islam. So linguistically two sabbaths, even though the Saturday one is no longer regarded as such in society.

Very nice young man!! His English was wonderful! And Dushanbe does look amazing. Bucket list!

Shame there wasn't much footage of Tajikistan, just one quick outside shot and some night taxi footage. Would have loved to have seen more.

@5:40 Those Tesco Clubcards are a damn sight more useful than I ever suspected and I must remember to take mine the next time I visit Tajikistan.

Omg never thought you are gonna review my country airline. Thanks

[robertholmes]

I love when we get videos of airlines I’ve not heard of! It sends me into a Google deep dive into the airline and try to learn everything about it.

[hakarmalm]

Would absolutely love to visit Tajikistan! Thanks for showing us your flight on Somon Air.

[markstedman]

Great video Noel love these 'off the beaten track' flights.

Kid: My name is Samira.
Noel: my son is called Samuel
Kid: look of confusion

😂

Almaty has best weather in most glorious nation of Kazakhstan. Jagsimash!

Next time you go to Tajikistan you should try to fly from Dushanbe to Khorog. The flight goes through several narrow mountain passes at low altitude. Back in the USSR days Aeroflot used to pay the pilots triple wages on the flight because it was so dangerous.

I've flown from Istanbul to Dushanbe with Somon Air and I must admit I was very impressed too. You are right about the hostess uniforms - quite unusual but very classy. And Dushanbe is an amazingly clean and safe city. I enjoyed the video and great to see Somon getting a bit of publicity 😄😄

I love this channel. There’s something soothing and enjoyable about a good ol Noel video at 5:22am.

Not totally related to flying but some of my students at a Chinese medical university were from Tajikastan and very impressive young people and always stated I would be very welcome to their country.

I didnt know this place existed until today and I thought I knew geography well. TY for making me learn about another place!
