Was watching from start hotel how he grab paper to you , an asking tip dropping you off at Cip an till coffee , best off luck for next trip
I saw an Iran air flight today at Frankfurt Airport. Are you flying in the flight today? I was transiting to Dublin.
Seemed like Air India few years ago
Why don’t you like Lufthansa
Good review Josh. Cabin crew didn’t act rude to you. Food Yuch.I never had heard of sanction flights.
That first check-in agent was really friendly and super professional. She was the best part.
Yes she is so beautiful and kind person
U will see a different reaction of her towards non-European citizens.
No. She assured Josh she'd booked him a window seat but on boarding he finds himself in the centre.
What a good country Iran could be. I am sure that Iran has a lot of smart and good hearted people.
Could it be it was changed afterwards by someone else (for example the one holding his passport) - just to get him off of the windows?@@lordOfSalem
As an iranian i always said that its only take one person to embarrassed whole country.last year i was in tehran international airport to send some package and saw a cab driver start lying and scamming a tourist. Its make me fraustrated and also angry so i start to talking to that tourist and decided to give him a ride to his hotel and spend almost 2hours to teach him about common scams and after one week he texted me about gratitude and having the best time in Iran. Josh im very sorry for your experience in iran and i hope you have better luck and experience next time

Wow the food looked less than appetizing! 🤢And indeed the jet has seen better days inside but like was mentioned in the video, this service looks like it's just meant to get you from point A to point B and that is all. 🤷♂

@@AlirezaSokhandanAsl well I didn't search for this KZhead recommend it
I'm an American & I've met a few Iranians while traveling internationally. Every person I met has always been extremely friendly, polite & a pleasure to be around honestly.
Spot on mate. I have 3 Iranian cousins and they are the 3 nicest people you will ever meet. I have met several Iranians also whilst travelling and they are a great and proud people. Don't judge Iranian people by the actions of the Iranian Government.
@@declanbrady5172 I’ve spoken with several Iranians in Bangkok recently, and each of them “HATED” American and Americans!
Sanctions affect normal people. They do NOTHING to the government… it’s a very stupid mechanism that doesn’t work!
How come.....
@@klebspneum They’re indoctrinated
I didn't like the part where the taxi driver asked for a tip. We don't give tips here in Iran. I think it was kind of rude to even mention that.
The first check-in agent was very friendly. When everyone is friendly in a service type company, it is more often than not, because of training and policy, but when someone is friendly in an environment that does not care or train their staff well, then that person is very special because they are real and their style of service is just part of their authentic personality. People like this are rare and are hard to pick out in a company where service is generally good, so I feel you were lucky to have this experience. Not in terms of airline service but for having had this opportunity to meet a genuinely good person.
such a great comment
All the check in girls were very pretty, that was nice.
Wow your review is really appropriate for this video and I appreciate your realistic mind .The people of Iran are in a lot of trouble, but they are kind and warm. Unfortunately, they have not been properly trained, and because very few tourists enter Iran and the doors of the country are closed, less of them know English. In this video, the crew is not rude, they cannot speak English. They answer with just one word, but the young generation is very intelligent
Secretly filming them is probably the best way to make sure they don’t consider you a spy 😂
Ha ha. He looked more like a spy than any real spy!
Probably his last trip to Iran now the agencys there know you filmed it secretly. Second trip wil be to an interregation room.
I wonder which cam he used?
@@Frankenpedaleur He used a SPY camera LOL
@@freedomisfromtruth Maybe, there are some tiny ones. Like the insta360 GO2. But I would like to know, if he really used one of them.
Could be worse, I am an Australian and fly Qantas. In court, Qantas recently said they dont actually sell tickets on a particular flight, such as the one you may have thought you booked a flight on. I don't really understand their position, but they said they sell something like the opportunity to fly around about the time you have requested - on a Qantas plane. Fantastic!
They were hijacked by a queer leprechaun with his own agenda.
Doesn't surprise me.
But Qantas is one of the rare airlines which never had a single not even a minor accident.
😭😂
@@martinlatvian5538 "never had a single not even a minor accident." PR bullsh1t In the Bangkok "747 incident" Qantas spent more than the aircraft was worth - it was actually assessed as a write-off - to ensure it was not registered as a hull loss. A serious Airbus 380 incident Nov 2010. Multiple serious maintenance and other incidents on various types can be researched on the internet. All such incidents/accidents are required to be fully investigated and reported - so this factual. Consideration must be given to the fact that Qantas flight departures and arrivals originate and terminate in one of the safest areas in the world and the weather in the South Pacific is benign compared to some parts of Europe and especially compared to USA weather patterns. Qantas used to be my favourite airline so it pains me to say that I would never fly this airline by choice. I never kept a precise record but I imagine I have easily passed the million air mile mark and have travelled with all the major international carriers - including the now impressive Middle Eastern and Asian Carriers - so this is actual experience not a thought bubble.
I couldn't help feeling kind of heartbroken for the cab driver, who seemed so afraid he was not getting a tip. He probably earns a few dollars a day and has a hungry family. The people of Iran are, for the most part, the most open and friendly in the world.
Afraid? He knows he's getting a tip from a Westerner. Seeing how much he can scam for a higher tip is the game.
@@nickisnyder3450those aren’t Indians or pakistanis or egyptians who do these kinds of things
@@amir910Iranians do that shit all the time
@amir910 go on with the stereotypes. Iran is not a saint. 😂😂😂
Why do you assume you live a better life than that driver?
As an Iranian I found this whole video really embarrassing🤦🏻♀ So sorry you had an unpleasant experience on that flight. Iranians actually used to be very nice and hospitable people but I feel all the recent economic/societal/political pressures have been taking a toll on them and they've become weird. Also giving tips (and definitely asking for tips!) is not a norm in Iran, and that weird driver that took you to the VIP terminal shouldn't have asked for it, and I wish you had refused to pay him any tip. smh
It hasn't put me off wanting to go to Iran, but I can understand your frustration.
very funny man.So it is okay for tips to be paid by people in the US but not in Iran ?
@@4evertrue830 currently in Iran. Tips aren’t a normal thing, though welcome. People get surprised when you give them something extra to the bill. The economy has been real bad these past years (exchanging cash has been my hobby number one the past 1 week).
Wise lesson : Don't mess with America or you end up being like Iran instead work with America so you have a city like Dubai LMFAO.
Who Chose the Revolutionary guards government ? The Iranian people themselves lol
Just for balance.. Imagine you as an American Airways Flgiht Hostess, meeting at work, an Iranian tourist who is consistantly filming every move and word you make. I am sure the American Security guy, flgiht Marshall I think you call them, I am definite he would be keeping a close eye on you, in the least.
If you’re filming, I’d think you would be on your best and most friendly behavior. Why choose to showcase your poor behavior by exhibiting it on camera?
Brother, there are a million immigrants in the west always on their phone talking out loud and on their phone, no one cares anymore.
I agree with you this is provocation if you put it in its context as someone whose country is not in good term with your country, even more weird
"their black uniforms are scary"? This entire video is childish.
@@steveburke7675 extremely entertaining...not childish at all. Now go back to kindergarten.

In my view, they kept your passport for so long, because they were researching your identity all over the internet. They then informed all cabin crew that you were not a diplomat or a businessman "but rather" a KZheadr. Hence the whole disregard.
Yikes I wouldnt want to travel to a country where they are so suspicious about you, I suppose they have had lots of problems and war there but creates such distrust, fear and unfriendly environment.
nah it aint about wars and shit the problem is internal with the politicians and government .@@teijaflink2226
@@teijaflink2226 Dear war ravaged country in Iraq and not Iran. USA attacked Iraq with the premise that Iraq has WMDs and they were not able to recover a single weapon and destroyed whole country. What a pathetic thing to do. Shame Shame USA. 🤢🤮
Dude who walks into an airport in an authoritarian country and just films everything. This is bizzare no matter what country you're in, forget about Iran, China, or North Korea.
This is happening in iran’s international C.I.P. They get everyone’s passport for paperwork purposes. I know it’s wired but they think they are helping 😅
The cabin staff didn't seem hostile or unfriendly . Travel Ryanair who go through the motions of friendliness but the reality is they are underpaid and overworked ,same with all cabin staff, difficult to maintain a facade hour after hour.
the only one who looks unfriendly is Josh Cahill towards the crew
Hi, Josh, I'm a Canadian, I went to Iran in 2017 for 15 days. I flew from London Gatwick with BA and never had all these experience that you had. When I landed at Tehran Airport, they just looked at my visa, asked a few questions and I was let in. It's an eye opening experience to travel through different cities. People were friendly and I walked around sight seeing without problems!
The fact he checked in at the wrong counter and was transferred in a car, plus being a westerner might have caused Iran officials to suspect that he might have been a spy or something?
I had a terrible trip to Iran in 2013. Would never be back. Just because you had a smooth trip does not mean others bad experience is invalid.
@@MsMeriwether He never said anyone's experience was invalid.
Iran treats LGBT tourists terribly. I went there in 2013. I had a bad time. called the cops three times. NEVER AGAIN.
We should also remember that Iran is a heavily sanctioned country. So they are under siege.
Josh: “This airline is the most sanctioned airline in the world” Air Koryo: are you kidding me?
Wise lesson : Don't mess with America or you end up being like Iran instead work with America so you have a city like Dubai LMFAO

Aww how lovely the cab driver was talking about his daughter😍🥹
I am very surprised how bad the flight was. I have flown with Iran Air myself and have always found the crew in particular to be very friendly and very hard-working. The atmosphere on board was always very special - very pleasant. Iranians are usually very friendly people and you can feel that as soon as you are on the plane. You didn't notice much of that in this film. Maybe people were irritated by the camera.
You're 100% correct.
Nej, nej det är inte kamerans fel!!
As a Black and current American Army Soldier, I love my brothers and sisters from Iran. Sadly our governments do not get along. But I have nothing but love for the people of Iran who are just trying to live a happy and peaceful life for families, friends and God. Back in 2017 I met a couple of Russian Army Soldiers who were visiting Dallas. They said the same thing to me about Americans. So it is my duty to pass the love forward. I know everything will never always be peaceful in our life, but we can love each other; even if we have different beliefs and cultures. God Bless the world.
I served in the Army during the last days of the cold war and was in Germany when the wall came down. Your statement is what we try to teach our soldiers. Thanks for being a good representative of what being an American soldier is about.
He most likely mentioned it because that's how the media wants us as a people portrait. The media wants all people to be divided, as that's what sales their stories better.
From Iran: You the Americans are our brothers and sisters no matter how stupid both our governments are and the controlled media divides us. The Iranian government is not the representative of our nation at all. That's why most tourists get shocked when visiting the actual people in the cities by our well-known silk-road hospitality (search on KZhead visiting Iran). At the same time the US government has been trying its best to keep our barbaric regime in place(the west installed regime in 1979). Because the weapon manufacturers profit billions of $ annually from selling equipment to other Middle Eastern countries plus gaining a lot from sanctions by buying our resources for very cheap or no cost (blocked money). Peace and Love to your nation and all other Citizens of the Earth!
@Ted Ching you don't understand. If you did then you wouldn't have to ask. Maybe it's not for you to understand. Did you ever think about that?
@Ted Ching to even think something like that is possible these days in America is crazy. If something so Ludacris were to happen; minorities would win because we outnumber whites here in the States. What makes you think minorities wouldn't stick together and overthrown Tom? Even Native Americans would jump in and get their long awaited revenge. People think that white people run things. We just allow them to. Black and brown people built America, we set the standard for pop culture around the world. Women of most nations mimick the image of the black woman. And I know this for a fact because I've lived all around the world while in the Army. And the music coming out today proves such. Even Country music has low bass and people rapping in it. So what makes you think a race war would happen when they literally can't live without us or our culture?
You would never travel on Lufthansa but yet your are going on Iran Air? Amazing!
so whats wrong
Take a Chance! Fly Air France!
Typical of many Germans who rubbish their Lufthansa but praise countries like Iran and North Korea. You can tell Josh is half baked as his English pronunciation is so askew.
This a an episode of The Office on a business trip that never got written This is absolute gold.
Thank you Josh for taking time and recoding about your experience in Iran and Iran Air, First of all I have to say you are very brave man going to Iran knowing about this regime. as Iranian away from country for almost 40 years I will never go back until this regime in power. I can't imagine what happened to my beuytfull country and my people I am embarrassed when driver asked you for tips. Hope people treat you right.😢
Josh: The staff here are worried about being spied upon. Also Josh: Films them in secret and without their knowing!
For real, I agree with Rob Rob chill out Karen
I agree. this josh need to calm the fuck down!
😆 lol
How is it trivial or ‘“Karen”to point out the obvious? There is in fact surveillance in a totalitarian country. They are gunning people down who are protesting. kids. A young girl was beaten to death by the police for the crime of hijab not to their liking. So ignorant
@@coffehbear3359 Speaking of… these ordinary people who staff the planes and airports are worried about appearing on videos shot of them without their knowledge, because the government has people who watch social media and once they recognize these people in there, they could find themselves in an inquisition situation for having their “hijab” untidy while on an international flight. The hostess could be accused of thus “you had your Hijab slip to show your hair, under the hope of gaining sympathy from a foreigner So to have relations with a nonbeliever?” These are the bogus charges that worry the Iranians when it comes to “being recorded without their knowledge.” Until you understand that, you are both the Karen and the ignorant one CoughingBear.
Regarding the fuel situation: The same is valid for all European airlines in Teheran. You don’t get fuel there. That’s why we at Lufthansa also take our return fuel with us. For our 747 the Teheran ops was quite tricky. Every landing was at max landing weight. Meant, a relatively high approach speed as IKA’s airport elevation is around 3300’. That made it impossible to fly the approach as published and required us to circle down to be able for a straight in approach. At night. With Very high terrain in the vicinity of the airport. After landing you have already hot brakes which get even hotter because the taxiway back to the terminal has a downgrade so you permanently have to manual step into the brakes. And then it happened where everyone thought: These Germans are joking, aren’t they?? Why? Our arrival time in IkA is around 1am in the night and when I flew there for the first time in August 2012 it was still around 24*C (75*F). During the outside check I observed a lot of ice in between engines 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 on the lower wing surface. Having ice there is not a problem at all but I had some kind of idea how it would look like on the upper surface. There we go, the area in between the engines was also covered with ice. That’s because of all the fuel we had in the tanks for the return flight that of course cooled down on our flight from FRA to IKA. So while ice on the lower wing surface isn’t a problem- it is ok the upper wing. For the 747 that means: No departure without de-icing the wings and stabilizer. Now can you imagine, when I asked the ramp agent from Iran Air , while everyone is running around in short sleeved shirts, if I could have a truck who could de-ice our wings? In August?? At times where we didn’t give Iran Air fuel and they did not give us fuel? There were just 2 solutions: We somehow can make it happen that Iran Air fills up their one and only operating De-icing truck and then would be so kind and also de-ice our aircraft- or we would have to wait till afternoon until the sun was out long enough to warm the fuel enough to melt the ice. Lufthansa Station Manager took control of the situation and around 45 minutes later a fully filled de- icing truck was ready for us. We got pushed back, then towed to a remote area and got fully de-iced. Started engines and, flying M0.87, landed in FRA 25 minutes ahead of time. I flew the Teheran Ops for another 10 months and have to say that the Iranian people are just one of the most kind I have ever met around the entire world.
Amazing story! Thanks for sharing and I agree with you, Iranians are wonderful people.
This is that kind of feedback I wanted to read
Excellent first hand account! Unintended consequences of fuel sanctions. That cold soaked tankered fuel icing up the wings! I wonder if override of the fuel control system to constantly transfer fuel from tank to tank might have helped? In flight and after landing. Keep center tank level high so only belly ice and wing tanks at where they go but keep moving the fuel so it picks up heat from max wing surface area. I love the 747!
I have a question. Is the station manager of an airline hired locally or are they hired at the airline's hub and sent to live in the city where the destination airport is?
Nice video Josh but start realizing that planes only use fuel when they go up. Once in the air it is compressed air that keeps airplanes in the air. You don't really think that 100.000 litres of fuel fits in those wings, do you ?
13:20 , “Is anyone sitting there” (pointing to the window seat). Bad start by the reviewer as if that flight attendant had any idea as to the occupancy plan. Such a typical frustrating question for flight attendants who work flights in the Middle East…
New subscriber here. I've been following your videos Josh and I have to say, I'm really enjoying them! As someone who's done a fair bit of international travel (mostly by road with my own car), I also enjoy flying so I really look enjoy your uploads and look forward to the new ones. Safe travels, and thank you for sharing your journies 🙂👍
Oh my god she is so funny I’m Iranian and I can translate what she said. When you walked in she said to her colleague ( wow this guy is so good) and then she was asking about his age and date of birth ( zodiac sign ) then she said we both was born in the same day.

You are right they can also work in the UAE for Emirates in the case of UAE to the Philippines flights. Emirates Iranian flight attendant will have a Filipino Emirates co-worker that can Translate English and Arabic into Tagalog language.
So sorry to hear about this experience. Iranian people were so friendly on a journey we had once with a group there that we all broke into tears because of being fully overwhelmed of this friendliness. Hopefully, Iran's future will be one that allows its people to be happy again. And free.
to me, the 2 female flight attendants were very pretty! not aggresive at all.....
Depends what you mean by freedom. If you mean living in a democracy....Iran has never been a proper democracy. Being happy? For some happiness is all about mosques and Spiritual leaders, for others its about the liberal western lifestyle. About the shah representing freedom. Yes some laws were more liberal but the biggest criticism he gets is that he was a puppet of america and showed the US had control over Iran during the 60s,70s.

Long live the Islamic Revolution, if you guys really wanted peace, you would be inciting violence, you would be peacefully protesting without setting policemen on fire and pulling veiled women's hijabs off.
The business class ground crew welcomed you alright. I think that was the best part.
I’m sure you have been through this with viewers before but as a new viewer of your channel I really wish you would blur faces unless people specifically agree to be on camera.

Fun fact, the security guard he was mentioning is a flight marshal. Usually, there are 2-3 on board to ensure no hijacking or problems ( like American air marshals).
The air Marshall's on Iran Air are probably checking to see the stewardess are wearing the hijab correctly 😢
High Jackings und problems. You think. Hostile is peaceful intimidation. Not protection.

The stewardess may not have known if the window seat was allocated at that time. Just ask if you can move when everyone has boarded.
Right? That would have annoyed me too if I were her. You think she has that kind of information in her head?
@@s13rr4buf3 They have a passenger list along with seat allocation on paper.
I was cabin crew for 25 years, I had to laugh at the cabin staffs attitude 😂🙈 clearly didn’t give a flying shit. However! The airline could put a palace in the sky and you can also spend a flying career bending over backwards, doing a jig and giving blood sweat and tears to some passengers and they’ll still give you attitude, rudeness and no end of complaining. Think this lot have just given up. 🤣
Can I ask does it help to give feedback on the airlines website when you receive good service? I always appreciate when a steward or stewardess is friendly and helpful and would like for their airline to recognize them.
Look,. At end of the day the cabin crew CLEARLY did NOT want to be recorded.. for that matter 90% of people do NOT want to be recorded when they are working. While tolerated in west,. You should be aware of their customs and point the camera down. Should do same everywhere really
He's a bit of a complainer ... Jesus I hate complainers , he even gets a giant walnut and is pissed off .
@@goofsaddggkle7351 Fhe answer to that is yes, same way you would raise a complaint with a company, you contact their customer services but be sure to have the person or persons names, the airline I worked for had 14k cabin crew. Or go to the social media page and promote your experience. Sadly too many people want their voices heard when they have displeasure at something. Glad you had a good experience with your airline. Most of us really do try with the limitations we have at our disposal, although people still think crew wave magic wands
@@mannycastle3011 I agree, I hated having a camera shoved in my face from passengers who thought they had that right
Great Video Josh. IIRC, Lufthansa does the same thing at their First Class Terminal with the passports, so passengers don´t have to go through the hassle of the passport control and can just enjoy themselves at the lounge. Was that the case here too?
You’re right, from my own experience with their business lounge that was the case. They brought back my passport with the immigration’s exit stamp.
you have got the whole thing wrong, they have been keeping the passports since the beginning of the Revolution in 1979, in the early eighties you had to drop the passport at least 24hrs prior your international flight, so the security agents from the government would have enough time to check your name to their database. Iran is not a democracy and normal rules of laws and respecting the rights of the citizens don't apply there. I haven't traveled back for over 30 years, but I see that some things have not changed a bit in more than 3 decades. Iran Air is is one of rudest airline operation out there, and they still hold your passport so they have enough time to run background check on everyone.

It's sad actually, nice people, the country has a rich history and a lot of potential but the religious state has destroyed it.
The driver taking you to the CIP lounge showed you his child’s photo to ensure he got a good tip. When you didn’t offer one he stepped up his game and straight up asked for it lol.

I flew with a Thailand airliner and even they didn't give us a glass of water! My little 3 year old daughter was thirsty and I begged for a glass of water but the flight attendants didn't pay attention to me. By the way, Iran is under the most sanction by the west. Please consider the situations and then complain. I am proud of that nice first chek-in lady. I've visited so many countries, many of the check-in guys behave you like dogs! Here in Iran, we don't have so many luxurious facilities but we consider strangers from other countries like our own families.
Thai Airlines, I agree at all , same experience. This year economy +, from Zurich zo BKK, very bad, uninterested service. Last year on business class, expensive and even too not value.
@safranpollen The past March, I've visited Sri Lanka. The check-in guy refused to give us our tickets! I was speaking and laughing with my brother in law and that stupid guy thought that we laughed at him! I told him, "Do you know Persian language? He said No! I told him, "So why do you think that we laughed at you! He said I don't know, but I think you mocked me! He delayed us for one hour and didn't give us our thickets!

I wanna tell you that the hospitality and civilization of a nation is more important than the capabilities of a country you're going to visit.

If I was taken away from airport in Tehran in a car, 😮 I would feel a bit unsure. But Josh did get to the business terminal- eventually.
That’s the stereotype it’s fucking stupid honestly. Iranians are great people it’s just a shit government that are putting this stereotype on the country. I’m an Iranian my self and have been to Iran quite a few times and they have all been great. Most people there are great people.
Had a great experience on Iran Air in 2005 doing a local sightseeing flight from Cologne on their 747-100 EP-IAM. Very friendly staff and that plane was immaculate, despite being about 30 years old. Sad to see they have deteriorated so far.

There was a time, a few decades ago, when travel to Iran, Iraq, Syria, even Afghanistan was relatively normal and pleasant. There was evidence of western modernization, women were being allowed some independence, access to education, starting businesses and so on. There was a genuine sense of hope, at least in some areas of those regimes . . . but that was then. How fragile all that was. Travel into any of those areas now is a risky proposition at best, if not entirely impossible for western travelers.
Hi! I am an Arab. And I’d absolutely love to visit Iran in future, dunno how near. I love their language, so romantic and sweet. . And the people are so kind, generous and giving. Salam.

I haven't been to Iran yet, but it is at the top of my list for destinations to go to. Every Iranian i have met so far have been asbsolutely wonderful.
I took a flight with Iran Air from Tehran to Shiraz. The aircraft was old, but everyone was extremely friendly. What an amazing country, I absolutely loved it.
Now Iran has progressed, I am an Iranian, thank you♥️🇮🇷
Woman, Life, Freedom. I don't think it has progressed all that much, but hopefully the priests will fall
Every Iranian person I have met has been so kind. Iranian men treated me with the up most respect. The media likes to always push the enemy agenda.
Why didn’t you stay to live in this “beautiful” country?
That aged well…
Thanks for sharing this video .. last time I was there in Aidan was about 20 years ago , I remember when the Tehrans airport was being built and I was actually the project manager assistant of the team who built the terminal .. mixed feeling , especially kneeing that Iran Air used to be one of the top airlines back in the 70 s and now became such a poor quality carrier . I hope you at least enjoyed the country natural beauty even though your flight back home didn’t seem to be that much pleasant 😄.. keep up your good work 👌👍🍻
That first lady taking his passport has a short fuse. I wouldn't want to piss her off. That plane he boarded was A LOT nicer looking on the inside than the small CRJ900 I flew from CVG to LGA.
All flights are scary. Doesn't matter what airlines you travelling with
At first I was super judgemental of how rude everyone appeared on your flight, but I am quickly reminded that on my 12 American Airlines flights this year (a majority in business or first class due to status), I've rarely experienced treatment better than this.
Same about ALL Canadian airlines
YEAHHHHH American Airlines is pure garbage. Even Ryanair is a LOT better and that's basically Aldi Air
Plus most Iranians don't know that much English
@@alinaqirizvi1441 they don't. the only words my family knows are hello and goodbye. anything other than that they think you're cursing them

I guarantee you that they researched your online reviews and alerted the staff, hence your seat change! But then again, no excuse for improper service.
That's kinda crazy to see as my experience with Iranian businesses are they're usually incredibly over the top on service and style whether it be a food venue or just a store. I haven't flown overseas but where I live you typically have a stellar experience in any Iranian or Persian businesses. The individuals are super cool and down to earth as well. Hopefully the airline is a one off bad experience for you!
Where is your experience based if you haven't flown overseas?
@@leonardhpls6 I thought the same 😂
Private Enterprise & Government Employees are different, lol!
This guy is extremely biased and it’s obvious.
This Josh Dude, is a typical German Racist troll. He is being treated really well, all over Iran, specially by pretty ladies. He does not appreciate the hospitality and friendliness of the Iranian people. I bet no German Lady treated him this well, all his life, as he was treated in Iran. German are rough people, we all know that. Respect from Pakistani American. We Love and Respect our Iranian Brothers and Sisters.
I am watching this immediately after watching the Mahan Air video & its amazing the difference between the two airlines seeing they are from the same country & I would imagine have similar sanctions. If I was ever flying to Iran I know which airline I would take. It is amazing that the plane that was over 30 years old looks to be in better condition than the plane which is less than 10 years in age (in regards to the cabins).
Sorry this guy is ignorant shows is not a world traveler, as American find out, Iranian airline is great also love their hospitality, wish to know that sooner, never travel to Europe is expensive, as Germans or English are rude and they think are a master of the world, and suspicious of all, or the US, special American airline is like Jail, and you should be careful,
And yet the Iranian government prioritizes Mahan Air over Iran Air because politics.
I thought the cabin staffs black uniforms looked great! I wish other airlines had a security guard on each flight. The scary shit I have encountered on other airlines was pretty horrific with no security to intevene.
I have heard that the Iranian 🇮🇷 people have the reputation of being the friendliest people on earth. I’d like to travel there sometime, it seems like a lovely country. What a shame that America always sanctions everyone. No one needs that in their lives.
I was there in Iran during 2014, people are so friendly and cooperative, never faced any problem and issue there. The standard of trains, Airoplane are amazing.
I visited Iran in 2014, too - what warm, friendly people. When people found out were were Americans they treated us like rock stars. We flew on Mahan Air from Tehran to Kerman.
welcome here
just search Mahsa amini! these warm and friendly people are getting killed by the Iran government! that make our living like a nightmare. the government is killing young girls and boys and kids and torture them in prison
Iran air best and very friendly… I have experience with Iran air and I never forget their kindness…. Quality as well very good …..
I bet if they weren't a sanctioned airline their cabin would be up to standard, the crew would be trained in good customer service and the food service itself would be upgraded. Though they did give you access to a nice lounge where if the service was going to be bad on the flight you can stock up and eat in the lounge.
I have yet to meet people from Iran that are not freindly , my ex coworker from Iran such a pleasure to work with and such a good hard worker
My dream is to explore Iran as I deal with the diverse history of this country. However, as a Canadian citizen we are required to have government tagalongs accompany us if we travel there. Hopefully one day I can be free to explore the areas I have studied so much about :) Great video!
Amazing country and people. Unbelievable adventuring experience for solo me ( 2012 ). Love to return but restrictions for USA, British and Canadian citizens ( me ) Enjoyed the memories ( video )
Great video Josh! Very interesting to see what flying Iran air and a government owned sanctioned airline is like. Sad to see their planes falling apart.. also thanks for the tip on booking with them! If only the Business Class was secent €800 would be a great price! If I go to Iran I’ll probably try Iran air but sounds like Mahan air is way superior. Any tips for filming in Iran? Keep up the great work mate!
When you talked about how much fuel they have to bring, it made sense why the front was empty for weight and balance for take off
Not how planes work luckily., They can carry Full Passengers, Full Cargo + Full Fuel and still be able to take off. That applies to all Commercial planes, Only some Military planes with large bomb loads have to take off with like half fuel then refuel in middair as they are too heavy to take off with full tanks + bombload. Seats were empty as its business class on a trash airline that people only use if they have to
@@tbas8741 there’s also a very restrictive weight limit for landing. I’d be more suspicious of that than the max takeoff weight
@@Triley215 You missed my point in reply to the OP. Planes dont remove passengers and cargo so they can take enough fuel for long trips as the OP stated. They are built so they can take Max passengers (all seats) Max full cargo bay and Max full fuel tanks and still take off. Landing weight is a different story.
@@tbas8741 but…they do. If a route is towards the route limit for a plane, and the wind changes direction to a way that’s not common (increasing the headwind) then the flight would either have to remove passengers, remove cargo, or make a stopover to refuel.
@@tbas8741 but even so…the OP isn’t wrong in stating that seats could have been empty for weight and balance issues. You were the one who brought fuel and capacity in to the equation.
hey josh, just come across your channel..scary vid!!! I must have missed a part, did you get your passport back? 😁
Josh, I have only just started watching, fascinating but I have a question, how the hell do you get away filming in some of these places? Are the cameras tiny? And with Iran air if there is a security guy on the plane and you were talking into your mic how come nothing was said or they didn't catch you? Thanks in advance hopefully. Paul
Before the revolution (in the 70s), Iran Air was one of the top airlines in the world, that even had orders placed on the Concorde. I would have liked to see how you got your passport back. 22 years ago when I traveled to Iran on my own they also kept my passport for more than an hour and I could see them scrutinizing it at length behind their office window. You probably attracted attention somehow. I looked like an Iranian in my headdress (which is compulsory) and kept being questioned in Persian (which I don't understand) by strange guys probably of the religious police up to the departure gate. Your crew were probably just being cautious to not be seen overly friendly with you (as a man & foreigner) because the religious stasi is everywhere.
Correct after 1979 this is the result very sad
@@jimakcelik6486 Ah yes, I know Iranians who left in '79 but also ones whom more recently migrated to Europe (via student - to PhD - to getting married ..... so life goes) - and they travel 'home' and have parents visit too. It is tough in Iran now, but for certain groups the times before '79 were not at all easy. So, maybe great for (us) westerners but the Sjah was not Mr. Nice Guy at all - just fitted well in the anti-communistic model - thus a friend - but no way anything democratic. The west should have supported democracy instead of just been against communism. It was sure to implode anyway - which is what happened.
@@nas4apps I was in Tehran with my dad 1979 I was 14 great memories good food
Yeah, all religions are controlling scams that take advantage of our brains' susceptibility to nonsense. It's just a question of degree of control and abuse

So sorry you had that experience !!! Most of the Iranians are super friendly and respectful of foreigners
Have you ever read what the iranian government says about the U S? F you feel comfortable going to iran as an American..... by all means, go visit....... the worst thing is that it's all about religion.....
@@Chris-yz8ve have you read why our govt has said about Iranian govt ?
So what? We're allowed to have a religious government if we want. We are also allowed to condemn the government that has caused so much meddling in our internal affairs.
Josh! I don’t believe that! Iran Air snd Persian is famous for good food.
Anyone still think it's safe and interested in going to Iran as of now?
"you disrespect air omelette" Passport denied for all future trips.
Look, I am Iranian myself. I know how important the Airbus A330 is for Iranians. They can barely afford to keep this plane operational and keep it running. They barely got these two Airbus A330 z it's a very important aircraft for Iranians.And to prevent the plane from getting hijacked or to prevent any further damage to the aircraft.
I had a domestic Iran Air flight on an A300B4 in 2015 (THR-TBZ-THR) with a friendly and professional crew. Either standards have come down since then or it's a hit-or-miss... Indeed the security officer was a bit apprehensive initially (especially when I wanted to take photos inside the aircraft), but eventually I was even allowed to sit in the cockpit for landing in TBZ.
If you were allowed in cockpit past 9/11, they weren't professional. 😂
@@antheiheiant Bro you are alowed into the cockpits in a lot of flights

@@kouroshbabaei8576 Yes, the US government and/or Israel paid for him to take a trip to Iran just so he could be negative about their airline.
@@VirgilZandig He has a verified channel so it's not far-fetched. Many in Canada were saying the same thing about Hollywood going back to the '90s but were scoffed at...and now it's confirmed it is.
About 15 years back or less, I did go through the same journey with Iran Air Business class (Teh-Lon O'Hare) and IMHO it was one the best experience I've ever had. VIP launch in the airport was cozy and comfortable with great food and drink selection (Of course except you know what), all complimentary. The plane wasn't this AB nor a 747 but very comfortable. The breakfast was started by serving Iran's famous Caviar on slices of boiled egg with a real silver custom-designed spoon, on a tray decorated with personalized natural fresh roses that smelled so well (I believe Ghamsar rose), and the hostess was as if she was only dedicated to our seats and our wellbeing! (Yes only a few people were in that cabin similar to yours). She was constantly looking at our welfare, and even invited us to visit the pilot's cabin and talk to the crews there! I can never forget the extent of hospitality and care I received and sorry to see this is what you get.
wow
Bullshit pro Iranian propaganda 😂
People react differently to being filmed. I would say that may have been a factor in how you were treated overall.
I am Iranian and you will fall in love with the delicious Iranian dishes such as Kebab, Fasanjan, Qorme Sabzi and Grilled Chicken. It is a pity that you came to Iran but did not visit the sights and cities of Iran.❤
I loved watching this! Thank you for sharing! I enjoyed seeing a glimpse of international travel to and from Iran.
Iran Air used to be a nice airline pre-1979 and certainly pre-sanctions. The last time I flew on Iran Air was probably more than 20 years ago and the food was actually really nice although I did not enjoy the check-in and boarding process. The sanction has and continues to hurt the ordinary people of Iran, but also companies that would be serving the airline industry in Iran or any other businesses for that matter.
They act like they never seen a Foreigner... Damn Iran has gone down horrendously since Shah(King) Death... Just thought about how much Iranian people and culture were respected almost 50 years ago... Now Iran is ran by a Terrorist regime that has destroyed the culture and society over the past 50 years or since the Terrorist wanna be Muslim regime of Khomeini's revolution started... It is very sad but the reality is the morons who started the revolution were the people of that era and modern Iranian kids are getting killed and shut down every time they want to start a revolution. On top of that media hides most of it or wont do shit about it... They do something for a month or two and its over The revolutionary guards and military agents of the terrorist regime of Iran kill people with guns or run over people who are not happy with the regime or the terrorist government... Sad reality of silenced people of Iran! 😔
Welcome to International Travel. It happens with all of them, AA, United, British Air, all have good and bad experiences. There was nothing wrong with your travel though, unless you are too demanding
Could I ask what kind camera set up that you used here.
I've had a few Iranian friends over the years. Iranians are in the main very nice people. Big league politics harms all us 'little,' people.
Really interesting video Josh. Very impressed with your hotel and airport in Tehran. The ground staff were really attractive and friendly. I worked at Terminal 3 Heathrow in the 1990s. Iran Air operated a first generation B747 Special Performance (SP) three times a week from LHR to Tehran. Looked very basic. They also carried a full crew of air marshals who were normally based in the upper deck of the aircraft. Strict security on the ground. Your breakfast review was such a laugh. But things did appear a lot better than 30 years ago. 🙋♂️🇬🇧
the people at the check in were talking about youre birthday on youre passport😂
I flew to Auckland last year stopping in Singapore & sat in the seat you should have had but on Singapore Airlines, what a difference! Chalk & cheese springs immediately to mind, thankyou for taking one for the team 😱
I can’t believe the airport driver asked you for tip! That’s dead cheeky that! He’d be in a massive problem if you’d have reported him to the airline and he surely knew that! That’s why he said to you that you’re a good friend just before you got off his car!
yehhh i agree with you
Yo they dont get enough money ok he just asked for a tip dont need to be dramatic
A $10 usd tip can really help out a person. If I lived in that country or any poor country I would ask as well. And he probably asked because most British and European people are cheap skates. People in Paris don’t even tip waitresses.
@@MikesGarageReviews yes! i gave a waitress in Cuba $20 USD TIp and she about cried. $20 takes me less than an hour to earn but it helped her for weeks. Giving someone that much help and joy was worth more than $20 to me.
Most ppl dont in Paris. Im french so i confirm.
I've been on Iran Air, to Tehran. It was a very nice journey except over Turkey we experienced a lot of turbulace. I thought the plane was going to break. But the service inside was so nice. They kept bringing food, snacks drinks. The meals were so tasty.
The turbulence isn't Iran Air's fault lol
I hate turbulence and it always happens over Turkey regardless of the airline.
@@alinaqirizvi1441 Partly true, why dont they look for better air though? Descending or Ascending can have good results.
He is just blantant lying
Your experience was quite different to mine 15 years ago. I was booked in business class on a British Airways flight back to London. After 2 weeks in Tehran, I was looking forward to a glass of wine with my meal and perhaps a rum and coke, but at check in I was told that the BA flight had been cancelled and I'd been transferred to the Iran Air flight leaving 2 hours earlier so there was no opportunity to visit the lounge, but I was directed to board immediately. I was disappointed that I'd have to wait until I was back in the UK before I could get a 'drink', but at least I'd be home a couple of hours early. I expected very little from the onboard catering but I was pleasantly surprised. A glass of cheap orange squash was the last disappointment I had. The coffee was very good then the meal service took up 5 hours of the 7 hour flight. I can't remember all of the dishes served, but I do remember it began with Chicken soup and a selection of wonderful bread rolls. Then there was a number of courses delivered at a leisurely pace - lamb; salad; cheese; caviar with toast; fruit; sweet biscuits and more. Between each course there was more coffee or squash (I stuck to the coffee). On one of the bulkheads, there was a small sign which was designated as the nominal Mecca for anyone who wanted to pray. As for entertainment there was a single in-flight movie with English subtitles (take it or leave it), about a young Iranian woman who was questioning her life. Another young woman rebelling was stoned to death! The woman that the movie was about chose the right path and ended up happy and fulfilled :-) I concentrated on enjoying the food and by the time the banquet was complete, we were fairly close to landing in London. All in all, I really enjoyed my Iran Air flight. It was an experience.
The most scary part was that the airline allowed you on the plane 😂 And that the US didnt shot down another civil plane like flight 655 in 1988 ✌
How about using a more recent example? Like when rhe Iranians shot down Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 in 2020.
Everything looks just fine this dude is tripping seriously. It’s a flight man presentation looks just fine .
What? The 1st course the FA wins awards for getting the plate on his tray without looking. Served a hot meal with the cooking foil still on and wrapped all the way under the plate so it cannot be removed without tipping it, exposing him to possible burns from steam, juices and hot foil. You can serve it in cooking foil if it can be removed from the edges but NOT from under the plate! The fruit should have been unwrapped, the FA was looking at his tray while doing lukewarm coffee service but did not offer to take his plate. He should have spoken up however and asked for hot water for his coffee powder to be dissolved properly.

Their families say the government did it while the government says the young women I am talking about committed suicide. We see women, around the world, indeed in the United Nations, cutting off locks of their hair in solidarity with the women of Iran and the rights they are wiling to die for, in order to dance, not be forced to wear a chador if they do not want to...being forced into buses by police who brutalize them for having, simply, a hajab that they feel is not put on correctly....or what they believe to be correct. I was only a school boy when the Shah left Iran for NY to be in hospital as he was dying and what happened after he left and how the world changed for Iranians when the Ayatollah came into power. It saddened us all, seeing a free and progressive Iran go back 1000 years to a repressed and theocratic state. We are with the people of Iran...hoping that things will change and that the people of Iran will not be forced to do things they do not wish to and that they will be able to openly see what is happening in the world without fear of punishment or death. We do wish you the best. Let the religious amongst you practice the religion they wish to but let those who might question or doubt of not believe what others believe, be able to live openly without fearing for their lives. That is what I hope for, for everyone right now who is facing brutality...for whatever reason. Peace.
What's the bet that the sausage was a canned one from Germany ;-) While the croissant was probably freshly baked by a talented local baker!

Hello , I am from Iran , I am sorry if you couldn't feel good and experience a good flight in Iran air business class , But I also should mention that : It is over 40 years that Iranian aviation industry and Iranian economy are under severe international sanctions , It means that maintenance of these old planes is a hard work let alone preparing the best for business class tickets and airlines , I hope that you would experience a better travel by Iranian airlines in your next trip to Iran , But still remember that now we are under the most severe international sanctions ! so please pray for us to get rid of these 40-year sanctions .
Maybe if Iranian leaders got in step with the Western World, the sanctions would go away. I feel bad for the Iranian people. but change must come from with in...
Prayer is part of the problem, not the solution. It is religion that is damaging Iran and it's relationship with most of the world.
