Join Ahmed Dawn and Walking Lady as we navigate our journey from the A-Lounge in Manila Airport to boarding one of the world's most talked-about aircraft – the Airbus A330-900neo – for our Cebu Pacific flight from Manila (MNL) to Dubai (DXB)!
This 10:20-minute video starts with an airport tour of NAIA Terminal 3, including our amusing search for a Bath & Body Works store, before we find our gate. We then board what's famously known for seating around 459 passengers, making it one of the most densely configured wide-body planes. Despite its reputation for being "brutally crowded," we were genuinely surprised! Experience our flight, including a look at the economy cabin, our pre-ordered in-flight meals (char siu chicken, sandwich, beef dalbo, snacks!), and our final verdict.
The Cebu Pacific flight crew did an excellent job ensuring a smooth, comfortable, and pleasant
Hello everyone. This is Amit Dan and

So heading to Civil Pacific

Yeah, looks like that's our aircraft.
And
we should be heading there shortly.
Okay.
First out there right sir. Thank you.
So it looks like this is a huge plane
49.
So this is only 18.
Yeah.
Looking for 49. Hi. 49
a
year. Oh, really? Yeah. So, we got 49 A
and B
and looks like these are night seats.
So, we settled down on our seats. Now,
this is an economy budget flight, so you
don't get nothing. Uh, you have to pay
for everything. And I'm just going to
quickly show you what you have here. Uh,
we ordered something from here, but I
don't know what we ordered one of these
items, but you can like, you know, buy
later on, too. But may we request all
guests to stow your hand luggage
properly under the seat or in the We're
thinking of getting coffee from here and
you can see that coffee 100 peso. Read
carefully the passenger card. You can
have green tea. If you do not wish to
perform the functions described in case
of emergency, please
[Music]
you can even have merchandise.
So one thing is you're not going to get
a blanket. You have to spend 400 peso if
you want a blanket.
And these are our food. I don't know
what we are going. Welcome aboard Cebu
Pacific. Fly to morph. Now this is
Airbus 330 Neo. Cebu Pacific is
certified under the Ayata operational
state. So I heard that this is world's
most congested flight because they
cramming crammed in like 100 some more
passengers. But you know when you look
at it, it doesn't feel that way. It
feels like fine. So I don't know how
they did it. I can't really complain
about anything.
So hopefully this is going to be a nice
flight and we'll wait for the food. I'll
show you guys later.
So guys, we just had pre ordered meals.
And this is uh charu chicken and this
looks like uh this.
Then we have a sandwich
and it looks like this.
And they give two waters
and we'll get coffee later.
So, we got some snacks and I have never
heard of this before. Each of them are
different.
And then we got the two brew coffee
and we like to try these. So, we got our
food again. the beef adobo which looks
like this.
And then we have a chicken wrap
which is like this. But I think I made
mistake ordering too much food. So we
cannot actually finish that much of the
Airbus A330 900 Neo from Manila to Dubai
was surprisingly pleasant. Despite this
aircraft typically sitting around 459
passengers and flying with what's often
called the world's most crowded
airlines, our Sabo Pacific flight truly
exceeded expectations. Even with a full
cabin, we found the seating
configuration and comfort to be quite
manageable. The entire crew did an
outstanding job ensuring a smooth,
comfortable, and truly enjoyable journey
from start to finish. Thank you for
watching and I will see you in the next
video.
