I took a flight on Saudi Arabia’s first low cost airline, Flynas, to find out if they are really worth the low cost.

Haven't seen you sit behind the wing for ages
Go to tabuk after this
honest subjective review…. well done
You were lucky. Josh Cahill flew on Flynas from Kuwait to Dubai via Riyadh, and they lost his luggage in the connection in Riyadh. He praised the cabin crew, though, and his luggage eventually arrived. Flynas has frequent flights between major cities in the Middle East, and there was soon another flight where to put Josh's luggage within a few hours.
Good morning Noel โ great chatting with you over in Houston. I was the guy in the Cubs jersey. When do you think youโll be doing YouTube shorts?
Hi Noel,how about the Emirates San Francisco to Dubai in economy
Bro Flynas is from UAE
I still remember when they used widebodies between Jeddah and Riyadh
Great video as usual.
Noel. When you find the coffe machine named "LaCimbali", NEVER take an americano!!
Get the "espresso", it will be very similar to the Italian caffรจ! And if it's not enough, take TWO espresso!!
Cheers!
Maybe there was no announcement, because they are like Dubai, a silent airport.
My man, you're going to need to put rocks in your pockets on windy tarmacs.
Used to say 100 dollars now you live in Boston it's turned to 100 bucks ๐ ๐
โOh Dunkinโ Donuts!โ ๐ got me
Nas, or ูุงุณ in Arabic actually translates to "people"…that's probably why it gets called Nas Air.
I'm also surprised JFK-LHR isn't on that list of world's busiest routes, given the frequency and competition on that one route…
The bloke sat next to Noel looked a bit worse for wear.
Not long been out of the uk and your already calling biscuits, "cookies" lol
Sign Noel is being influenced by living in America:
He said "cookies", not "biscuits".
2:03 – but wait, you found one just 14 seconds ago, dunkin donuts even has a coffee cup as their logo…. ๐
Noel Many Thanks for your reviews! I love all of them & your sense of humour! Many Thanks & wishing you many happy flights,Enjoyโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ๐๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
I hate flying noel, wish I could just say , oh a little bit bumpy , instead of thinking , we are going to crash ! I have flown lots , but I still dread it !
Just flew Flynas and its up there on list know of blacklisted airlines. Even at the start when i was purchasing my tickets it said payment failed then i go back in right away to use anotherr CC and they uped my price by $75usd. I had no choice but to pay for it. The checkin line at instanbul took about 90mins to get through then on my way back flight was delayed at riyadh for 4 hours. They didnt even announce it or anything just bunch of people standing around for while till they changed the gate sign to Saudia. One more thing to add i paid for meal in the air and the flight attendent never gave it to me. overall about 2 out 10 . only good thing i would say is the seat space was pretty good for low cost airline.
Looks like your seat mate was crying because you didn't get a chance to do a loo review ๐๐คช
Only $100 /night , seems like a place ๐
Fair price , too bad about the leg room .
Only 20 mins to terminal ? ๐
Noel…your content is still high-quality. However, just because you now live in the USA, there's no reason to call plain old biscuits 'cookies'.
did you prebooked your meal and payed? and payed again for the cooffe and cookies? so, will they refund for the pre-booked meal?
I was going across the tarmac on a packed bus in Riyadh , standing beside the doorsโฆ.they opened !!! ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐
Very spectacular, arrid land. Great video per usual.
Iโve had that pre-ordered food issue with JetStar once. They promptly refunded me once I queried it. The best part was the passive-aggressive apology, which was along the lines of, โSorry our cabin crew didnโt do their jobโ ๐
Sounds like a good airline.. ๐
can you fly with PAL?
"nas" means "people" in Arabic. Not sure if that's just a coincidence.
Thank you for sharing you flight here. That looked not too bad at all flying just an hour and a few minutes. Nice!! You made me laugh to know that Dunkin Donuts is all the way there as well. My Chicago coffee store is there!!! Wow!!!
I'm watching this video while flying on an Air Canada Dreamliner.
Your seat mate seemed to not at all enjoy the flight
If you could review new Qantas Food and Lounge that be great. Iโm planning going to Europe next year flying Qantas A380 Sydney to London via Singapore.
Please give cost in ยฃs 'too please.
Make sure to have some local coffee. Saudi Arabia, is the number 1 in world for that. Besides that, they are the number 1 oil supplier to the whole world with OPEC. Please be careful Noel, USA went to war in 1991 with them with Iraq including them twice. The region is still unsettled but booming from all the economic development. Noel, DUBAI is amazing! You think that airport is nice wait to see you that one.
Did I hear you right? 50 flights a day to Riyadh on one route alone! Wow, wonโt feel as guilty running my 6 litre V6 now ๐
Little feedback , don't talk over the call of pray or just don't include it in your video , the way you are talking over it doesn't look good apart from that excellent video
Wow. You've taught me just how behind we are. Beautiful airport
The branding must have been removed and the aircraft definitely is rented from a Lithuanian airline company. I got stuck at one of those no branding and all European crew and was inside the plane at JED for 8 hours until they shifted me to another bigger aircraft with proper branding and Arab crew (mix Saudi and Moroccan) and put me in business class which was half empty even after they shifted all of us. I also got stuck again a week later from DMM to JED. I have been flying around Saudi for over a year now and I never boarded a plane when flying with this company that took off on time.
GO ON NOEL MY SON!
Chap next to you didn't look too happy with his lot!
The guy sat next to you was really feeling it๐ข
