I have no idea what this thread is about, something about influenza's?
Agree Kym is a decent vlogger, though his focus is F1, probably only about 10% of his content is travel relatedKym Illman (of WA's Messages on Hold) recreated himself as a F1 photographer.
He takes us along on his various flights, hotels etc following the F1 circus, which I usually find quite frank.
You need to discriminate between the “I’m travelling first class isn’t this / aren’t I fabulous” types, and the pilots commentating on various aspects of flying, types.I haven't watched any of these people apart from a couple posted on AFF. I really don't see the point.

Exactly! You may want to know if your seat is missing a window. Or if the bulkhead seats have extra legroom, etc. Bit late once you’ve got onto the flight to find out!I have enough entertainment on AFF.
As to flight and seat conditions I judge them when I see them. My likes etc are often not shared by others and vice versa.
I buy Lonely Planets. I'm in the "What's the point?" camp. Rather rot in hell than spend time watching someone's tedious or biased travel "content".
Having said that, I do like TRs here and consult Youtube for music and how-to type content (eg fishing knots, recipes and fixing stuff).
I find out that stuff on the airline website or AFF. All you have to do is ask a question.Exactly! You may want to know if your seat is missing a window. Or if the bulkhead seats have extra legroom, etc. Bit late once you’ve got onto the flight to find out!
Yes, but case in point, someone recently asked here on AFF whether an exit row seat on ANA had a window, or if the window was misaligned.I find out that stuff on the airline website or AFF. All you have to do is ask a question.
Most of the flights i take now are on airlines I have flown before and know the product.
It's just a video version of a trip report.I haven't watched any of these people apart from a couple posted on AFF. I really don't see the point.
I can't help but admire the YouTube business model where anyone can earn the big bucks just by literally talking to a camera.
