29 HOURS to travel Frankfurt to Glasgow: The priority was money over time, but was it worth it?

Kealy's pub is 10-15 mins walk from where you did the video in Dublin Airport. Lovely pub full of locals and airport staff, very nice staff there and way cheaper than the airport. Standard Dublin Bus ticket to city centre is €2.60 each way.

I sympathize with the Frankfurt Hahn stuff. Have had to deal with that joke of an airport several times. I've now resolved that I'll only use it on the departure or return alone of a trip, and treat myself to regular Frankfurt for the other leg.

Hello~ I will subscribe. I remember using Dublin Airport lounge for the sole purpose of shower... I remember the lounge was pretty minimal.. I was traveling from Burlington VT, USA to JFK, to FRA to DUB, to MAD. Strange itinerary but it was cheaper to take the LH to DUB, then Air Lingus to from DUB to MAD on a separate ticket than to take LH from JFK to MAD. Actually, I was on my way to Japan but the reason for stopping in Madrid was to see someone that I had met in Sydney, Australia six or seven years before and had lost in touch but miraculously found on LinkedIn or something. From Madrid, I flew Qatar Airways via Doha to Tokyo. I had 7.5 hours in Doha and I was supposed to be on the "Transit Passenger" bus but I decided to get out and got on the "Arrival Passenger" bus and got out of the airport. I had a good time in town, had dinner, sat in a coffee shop, visited art gallery, souvenir shops, strolled along the water, etc.

Superb

can you do the cheapest flight too thailand with 3 stop overs ?

I've watched quite a few of your videos now so I guess I should subscribe...
That is a crazy journey you did there. I don't think I could make it, I would not be able to stand on my legs when I arrived.

Wow 10 mins in, that nose looks really sore, was that the day you shut it in the door?

I don't know how you can drink so much coffee? It plays havoc on my bowls. 😂

A factoid is a lie dressed up as a truth.

awesome vlog as always scott really enjoy them.

No if your that tight for money you should not be traveling anywhere like a itinerant homeless bum travelling 29 hours LHR SYD SYD KUL thats 29 hours not micky mouse tours for the homeless

The long layovers are the killers! Easily 10 hours at Istanbul.

How much getting the euro wing in Düsseldorf?

I flew Prestwick to (Frankfurt) Hahn on Ryanair's first flight on the route in the early 2000's. A businessman in front of me stood at the aircraft door. He looked out at the tiny terminal and said loudly in a very posh voice " Could someone tell me where the F*ck I am because this is definitely not Frankfurt?" Hahn had been an American airforce base and looked exactly as if it had just been abandoned.

Why didn't you stay overnight in Frankfurt

This is not something I would do. :o

I once was blocked in a very small airport for an entire night. Nothing was open and there was nothing to see. It was so long and boring. My flight was delayed twice and both announcements cut through my soul. I was so glad it was over. So no, this challenge wouldn't be for me.

It is amazing how cheap one can fly in Europe and UK but at the costs of time. But if it saved you 100's of Pounds/Euros, and have the time, why not do it the roundabout way.

Nice one. Scott keep. Them. Coming 👍👍👍😊

Not read any thing ok about Ryan Air
..?

Fair play to you. I would rather stick pins in my eyes than do a journey like this.

Apart from saving a lot of money this journey certainly provides some adventure. The worst part for me would be the hours and hours sitting around waiting for next leg of the journey. Plus I'd happily pay extra to avoid Ryan-pirates-Air. Well done Scott for calling their bluff - twice! I presume there wasn't a cheaper flight to e.g. London and a train back to Scotland.

Brilliant Vid. You have some stamina alright. Well done.

I have never been on a plane and I probably never will, but I like these informative video's a lot. Seeing this one I am more convinced that my way of travelling during daytimes (train, ferry and a connecting bus/tram/metro) is the best choice for me. Most times it is certainly not the cheapest way to get at my destination, I know that, but I like it.

Alot of traveling for you,

Next time you have so much time at DUB, there is a pub about 5mins walk from terminal 2 that serves excellent food and of course a great pint. It’s keelys, a gastro pub. Leave the terminal and walk to the right, towards the Radisson Blu hotel, pass the hotel and the pub is in front of you.

God I thought Birmingham New St was bleak but some of those first stations looked alot worse

Blimey, 78m away. That’s like having a secondary airport for Birmingham in Manchester or Bristol near enough

Loved this video. Absolutely captures the experience of budget travel !

Cracking video

Great video Scott - I am definitely putting Malaga on Spanish cities to visit list.

Well, that was a long way round for a short cut! Well done for figuring it all out and lasting the course. (Subscriber)

His Scott I am new to the channel and it's brilliant I can't put my phone down beats emmerdale any night

Cologne, Dusseldorf or even Berlin are the ways forward. Frankfurt main/Hahn should be avoided.

Great video. Never flying on them

I will NEVER fly Ryanair ever.😡

Hahn airport! Growing up in the area that airport never made sense to me, other than putting a military airport to use. The general infrastructure in that area is so lacking that putting an airport in the middle of it was always going to struggle.

Yet another great video Scot you certainly put yourself through it again keep up the good work

My name is Scott. And I'm not very good in travel

Cruise attitude. Turned off scott.

" never know what you're going to get on these video's"...I'll take a wild guess...planes, trains and buses..and..er..coffee...good stuff though..keep them coming.

Sanford airport is sometimes billed as an Orlando airport. The middle of one is about 25 miles from the middle of the other; the airports are further apart. I think that Allegiant and some charter flights use Sanford.

Nice Dobro background music. Sounds like it could be by Ohio native Jerry Douglas, longtime member of Alison Krauss and Union Station.

Glad I'm subscribed; couldn't miss more of this rubbish (your words, not mine). Feel your exhaustion after each trip; we are similar age and I couldn't do it.

He said Ryanair are pirates 😂😂

Wow you do give value for money l😢

Love your sence of humor and the travels of course 😎✈️

Ryanair twats Scott lol👍🙂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

quite right on the airport staff, they need somewhere to sleep.

I am amazed you could get such a low fare, especially in comparison to what you could have paid!
