- So much paperwork to do in order to fly right now.
There is no lounge for adverts
even premium passenger in the moment at Zurich.
- Its been seven months since my last flight.
- Its been a while!
- There's very little reason to pay for business class.
- One by one, I guess they don't want people to touch it.
- Trey was wondering what's changed in our industry
in the last six months or so.
- The biggest thing I miss is the age of the eighties.
- So this is how we are preparing
for the light meal lunch option.
So this customer chose with the covers on.
- So we do have a few changes in first class.
- Everything seems (mumbles)
- If I tell you here is a hospital,
you would have believed me right?
- Sir, I know you!
- It's good to see Amaris still serve a hot meal.
Like I said about this flight.
Look at how many passengers around the cabin.
We certainly interested here for what you think,
how we can end this pandemic
and inject some of the confidence back in travel.
(upbeat music)
It's been more than seven months since I last flew Emirates.
I'm excited.
So there's a lot of extra paperwork
to get on this flight to Dubai.
As a residence, I have to have a permission to return.
And also I need a COVID test, a negative COVID test.
- Sir, do you have this formula?
- I'll need to give health declaration at Gates?
- Yes.
- Okay. I will fill that in.
- Okay.
- So much paperwork to do in order to fly right now.
The airport is pretty quiet right now.
It felt like we're the only flights going.
(upbeat music)
Don't come to the airport too early
because the Emirates lounge in the midfield concourse
is absolutely closed.
There is no lounge for Emirates
even premium passenger at the moment at Zurich.
I'm using a credit card lounge in a moment.
(upbeat music)
We're taking this form, right?
- Yes we need to yes, so that contact tracing.
- Contact tracing! Okay.
- Thank you very much. Thank you
Have a pleasant flight. See you!
Goodbye. See you.
(upbeat music)
- Wow. (upbeat music)
Its a feeling walking up the stairs.
- (mumbles) good afternoon today.
- Good to see you.
- Welcome on board.
- Its been seven months since my last flight.
- Its been a while!
- Its been a while.
Join us over here.
(upbeat music)
- Alright, its really empty on this flight.
I'm not even surprised.
There's very few people on board.
That's why I chose to fly in the economy today.
There's only five and a half hours.
Zurich, Dubai, the economy is being so empty.
There's very little reason to pay for business class
for a short flight like this.
(mumbles)
- Ladies and gentlemen we may be flighing (mumbles).
- It looks like we're going to take on,
on a very short runway.
We're only 28.
We only two and a half kilometre long.
(aero plane taking off)
It was a very powerful takeoff
on runway two way on the triple seven 300,
because we were light.
There are very few passengers on this flight.
(upbeat music)
(mumbles)
- That's a travel hygiene kit.
(mumbles)
- Okay. So you're giving one by one to passenger now?
- Yes.
- One by one, I guess they don't want to people to touch it
to reduce the contamination.
This is very generous.
There's five sanitizer gel packets in the hygiene kits.
There's also a two mask and two gloves at different size.
You guys probably have seen lots of wide angle
rotating this blog.
This is the camera I've been using to produce those.
This is the Insta 360 one R camera,
with the invisible selfie stick.
The beauty of this I like about it, is it's detachable.
You can have the normal 4K wide angle lens.
You can also have the 360 angle attached to the camera.
So the camera camy modular, its like a two in one.
You can have a choice of two lens in one camera.
But the best thing I like about this camera
is the capability on editing.
You don't need a photographer,
a videoconference to travel with you.
You guys shoot everything on your own,
holding an invisible selfie stick.
When you're editing in the Insta 360 studio,
you can select the angle.
Select any angle front, back, left, right
or 360 to include all the footage.
And you can even take a lot of great screenshots
from your 5.7K 360 video.
You can also add it.
There is the free 61 hour on your mobile phone on the go.
There's a lots of funky move.
You can add it on the mobile phone and send it social media.
- Get this amazing Insta free 361 R camera
during Amazon prime day.
You will not only get 15% off
but you will also get a free invisible selfie stick
using code Sam tree 360.
- Hello to everyone.
Once again, Stephanie is my name,
first on board today from Zurich.
Mr Trey was wondering, what's changed in our industry
in the last six months or so.
As you can see from the part of the obvious,
divisors, the masks, the gloves,
the (mumbles) protective protective equipment.
But the most, the biggest change for us as a crew
has come from the part
that we're not interacting with our customers
as much as we used to before.
That was the biggest part of our interaction
and our jobs to speak to people, to interact,
to see what's going on, to move around when it comes
to sanitation and throughout the flight.
Now we have introduced our
one of our ladies on each flight over at 1.5 hours,
our cabin service assistants.
Now we have them on all flights
to take care of the laboratories throughout the aircraft
and sanitise surfaces.
- What else has changed?
- We feel hot now.
I would think, more than before
the temperature was always a problem on board
for the customers and for the crew.
Now it's even more challenging with these things,
but we're coping.
I mean, we're basically bottom line is that
we are very happy to be able to fly nowadays.
We have to abide by the quarantine rules.
But there were the less,
it's nice to see our colleagues and people on boards.
And everything slowly coming back to normal.
- The biggest thing I miss
and everybody miss at Emirates is the Avery 80.
We missed this aeroplane.
Have you operated Avery 80 since Corona?
- I haven't. I haven't since the covid
but actually I do personally miss it a lot as well.
It's an exceptionally a cuffed
and it's an exceptional experience.
And the feeling when you're in creating,
especially as a person being able to go around
such a huge aircraft interacts with so many people
with so many crew.
And it's a village it's not in the aircraft.
It's, amazing experience.
(upbeat music)
- So this is how were preparing
for the light meal lunch option.
So we go with the charlie into the cabin.
So we serve the customers and linen,
then we (mumbles) cutlaries
and additional bottle of water.
So this is how the tray set up looks like.
So everything is covered
and the customers have an option to be covered
or with the covers removed.
So this person chose with the covers on.
We just waiting to be heated the hot meal and the bread.
- So what are you cooking today?
- So today sir, we have pan fried beef Tenderloin,
chicken veggie bush and spinach and fried (mumbles).
- So we do have a few changes in first class.
As you can see, the note pad and the pen
is wrapped in some plastic.
Everything is wrapped.
The aircraft is thoroughly sanitised.
You can see just in the mini bars, this is.
- Everything seems like filled and wrapped.
- We just want to show you what we have
for our first class passengers.
We still have the very buried, breads basket.
We have pre-plated salad pre-plated caviar,
and pre- plated (mumbles)
- The pillows also come wrapped
as have the duvets and the mattresses in first class.
- We have still the mattresses
to be offered in business class.
However, its sealed.
So we will offer it to the passenger now
and they will prepare their own bed.
- Nice sound. What's up?
Congratulations on your first solo.
My name is Joe.
I've been working with Emirates for the last eight years.
I also have a pilot licence.
I have a CPL from the States.
And we're still flying next to you
one day in the copit.
Good luck bro.
- Thank you so much man. Hopefully one day you fly me.
- Thank you. Yeah
- It's great to see like my naviator on this flight.
CPL, that's amazing.
Commercial pilot licence.
If I tell here is the hospital,
you wouldn't believe me. Right?
Everybody's covering the face.
There's no way I can tell where they're from anymore.
Where are you from?
- Hello? I'm Bruce from the Philippines.
- Where you from?
- Gift from Morocco.
- From Morocco. Yes
- Hello. Anita from Thailand.
- Preparing for the service right now.
We make sure to notice (mumbles)
Now this is the temperature gauge.
- Check the temperature gauge.
(upbeat music)
(mumbles)
- So now basically I will serve this for the drinks,
where ill just give them like, juice packet juice.
And for drinks only cans.
So only we can full red wine and white wine.
So I'm serving lunch right now,
would you care for the grilled chicken
or the (mumble) cheese?
- Apen chicken please.
- Would you care to have something to drink sir?
Apple juice, orange juice, pepsi, soda, wine
or beer and water for you?
- Ill have a diet pepsi.
- Diet pepsi.
- Well I'm about to enjoy my lunch.
And this is the only time I can lower my mask to eat.
(upbeat music)
Well, I really enjoyed that chicken main course.
It's good to see Amber still serve a hot meal
in the economy class.
The only thing missing is the cheese and cracker.
They used to have really good
cheese and crackers in the economy.
- Sir, I know you!
- Whoa you know me?
- Yes. I do
- Wow!
- Do you know me?
- No, I don't know you.
- Yes you do!
- From where I know you?
- From another flight maybe.
- You're a cabin crew.
- Yes I am.
- Oh really?
- Yeah, I was on your flight.
This is you and me and all the rest of the crew.
This is New Jersey, Hong Kong flight.
- Oh, you here!
- Yeah and you're there.
- And I'm there.
- And we were everywhere.
- Oh my God! That's you.
- And that's you as well.
- Wow! It's nice to see you on this flight again.
- And nice to see you as well.
But you don't remember me.
- We failed them out. I will.
(upbeat music)
Well, there's lots of empty rows. Help yourself out!
Stretch out!
Economy first class, full sitter,
fully split beds in economy.
So I'm going to take a nap for a little bit
and see you later.
(upbeat music)
I started feeling a bit moody
during the flight as it goes on.
And now, we just did a second service about an hour to land.
I felt terrible.
I felt sad.
I felt sad about this flight.
Look at how many passengers around the cabin
there are maximum 50 passenger in the economy.
You know, the frequent changing of rules,
brought the closures requirements of flights
puts people off.
I knew it, lots of people would travel,
but because of all these rules and regulations
really put people off.
And now we have very few people
who needed to fly are flying.
Government needs to work together
with all the stakeholders in the airlines,
to figure a way to provide safe air passage.
You know IHL we're recommending a mandatory Covid testing
at the airport to make sure you're COVID free
to get on board to fly.
So then all the border can be opened.
We certainly interested here
for what you think, how we can end this pandemic
and inject some of the confidence back in travel.
What's the advice you can give now
to travellers whose flying.
- The little things matters the most.
I mean, wash your hands, wear your mask every time.
It's the most important thing.
And we always try to remind our customers
and rest of the crew to do the same thing.
So stay safe.
(upbeat music)
- See you next time. Bye bye.
- All right. See you. Thank you for looking after me.
(mumbles)
- Stay safe.
- And Sam, just before you leave,
we left you with a we wrote a card for you
to leave you as a...
- Oh my God!
- Yes.
- Its a card?
- Its a card from all the crew signs.
And... yeah!
- That's incredible. Thank you so much.
I definitely would treasure this flight.
It's very special Covid flight.
Well, thank you.
- Let me get.
- Five and a half hour flight.
Very easy on the triple seven, back to the heat
and hello Dubai.
Okay. My bags already waiting for me on the baggage belt.
This time to formality in Dubai was surprisingly fast.
Thanks for the Covid test I have.
So I don't have to take another Covid test when I arrive.
It's pretty straight forward.
Just immigration, stamp the passport.
Now do baggage claim and custom and out.
