besh, kung hnd ka pa nakasalamuha as in ng medyo matagal sa mga pranses at aleman, gurl, hnd mo magigets si enchong. top tier racists ang mga yan!! 🤣 ang tingin ng mga yan sa asians eh mababa at nag-aasawa ng european para guminhawa ang buhay. pag pinakitaan mo ng european recognition ng pinag-aralan mo, saka lang sila nananahimik. na ah oo, madami din palang asians ang propesyunal at may kaya sa buhay👍
We fly Air France a lot pag umuuwi ng Pinas, economy lang pero so far maganda naman experience namin. So if business class I thought mas special ang passenger? 😅 Did he perhaps get a Schengen Visa issued by France but he will go to Spain instead (because Spain is stricter than France, and some people practice “visa shopping” to work around this situation)? Pero it doesn’t make sense if frequent traveler naman sya (I think he is, kasi artista naman sya and he has the capacity diba…)
1217 I had first-hand experience with how racist some of the FAs of Air France are. Hindi sila verbal pero mararamdaman mo pagka-racist nila. The way they talk to you, how dismissive they are to your needs etc at first you try to ignore because you’d think baka naman mali ako. BUT if repetitive na ang action (or inaction), ako pa ba mali? So I understand Enchong and I am fully on his side
2:12 granted totoo yang sinasabi mo. Still that is not an excuse to be rude or maltreat someone. No one has the right to degrade you or disrespect you lalo na costumer ka nila, pasahero ka nila. technically galing sa binayad mo ang kinikita at kinakain nila. Wag nating gawing ugali mag discriminate o mang mata ng kapwa. Ah siguro kumabit lang ito sa kano pwede ko siyang sagutin ng pabalang. Ganon? Ganon po ba? Nag FA ka ba para sa mga mayayaman at mataas na pinagaralan lang? Eh kung sabihin kung serbedora lang FA sa ere nga lang gusto ba nila yon? Wag tayo mayabang sa mundo. Pare pareho tayong tao na may damdamin at may karapatan mabuhay. If u cnt be nice at least be professional.
2.07 i hope one day you get discriminated because of your race so you dont have to come here and ask dum8 questions.or you havent travelled or been to any western country you dont know what its like. There are silent racism that exists too. The worst part is you second guess yourself whether you did something wrong or you are lacking hence the treatment.
@2:12 talaga ba? Kawawa k nmn at mukhang ang babaw ng mga kakilala mo. Imagine considered accomplishment pala makapag asawa ng foreigner that’s news to me. At base sa experience ko may pagka racist nga ang mga french sa asians or baka nmn ganun lng talaga sila unlike sa atin na friendly at helpful sa lahat.
Air France sucks! They lost my luggage in Paris and it took them 7 days to locate it. Had to buy new luggage, clothes, etc. while on vacation. They did not even pay me back. Do not fly with Air France!!!
12:34 insurance is useless. UA lost my luggage, filed a claim through the insurance. Walang nangyare. Kasi siguro UA found the luggage after a few days. But still, they should still have compensated.
Serious question: if luggage was found but it took a few days , wouldn't insurance at least compensate partially for those days when u had to spend to buy clothes etc during the days when luggage was still lost?.
You have a Schengen visa yes but your entry should be France and not Madrid.so they are correct to offload you.saan ang racism dyan eh Ikaw ang Mali sa port of entry mo.you should generally enter through the country that issued your visa.
You don’t necessarily have to enter the issuing country first. You can have a Schengen Visa issued by France but you will enter the Schengen zone through Madrid, that’s fine, pero your longest stay in the Schengen should be the issuing country (in this case, France). Kung baga, respeto naman sa country na nag-grant ng visa mo, diba. It’s called delicadeza. Kung wala palang intent pumunta sa France, eh di sa Spain dapat kumuha ng visa. #visashopping
Former airline staff here (European airline). I'm not invalidating Enchong's experience, and I'm trying to understand what happened.
Possible scenario: AF roundtrip ticket BKK/xCDG/stop MAD/stop CDG/BKK
1. Outbound BKK/xCDG/MAD He was questioned due to via CDG and destination MAD. He should have gotten a Schengen visa from the BLS Visa (official service provider of the Consulate General of Spain).
2. The AF BKK ground staff cannot revoke his Schengen visa. I wonder what exactly happened here.
3. New ticket BKK to London - on which airline? Then London to Paris - on which airline? Or Eurostar train? No additional info here.
4. Online check-in AF MAD/xCDG/BKK Didn't he say he was in Paris already - point#3? There are 2 flights involved: AF MADCDG AF CDGBKK Did he skip MADCDG and was able to online check-in CDGBKK? That must have been the reason "they blocked his ticket" - assuming he didn't utilize aka NoShow on his MADCDG ticket coupon, then onward flight CDGBKK is automatically cancelled. Need more info here.
Skip to 8. The French are not warm people, unlike other European nationalities.
At lalo yan feeling validated ang belief nilang yan kasi kapag andito sila, parang "starstruck" mga tao kung treat sila which is actually just our natural way of being hospitable.Well..Even towards the Americans these, French and British people exude superiority complex.
10:59 Not a belief but that's actually part of their culture and upbringing. And also, I read this from a French person perspective: "If everyone thinks we feel superior, maybe it's because they've seen for themselves that we are."
actually racist ang france in terms of schengen visa. mas malaki chance mo ma deny pag france. Bottomline racist talaga sila. they categorized visiting sa bansa nila
mahigpit yata sila dahil sa mataas over staying sa bansa nila most likely from south asia.
kung gusto nyo ma accept sa schengen visa go for greece and balkan countries tapos back packing ka na lang whole europe
I think it depends on your profile. I got my SV via france and they gave me a one year ME. May friends din ako who usually get via france kasi mas maluwag sila magbigay compared sa ibang EU countries.
Ha ha... looks like the pot is calling the kettle black :D :D :D Penoys are racists too ;) ;) ;) Just think of the names you made up for your AFAM friends :) :) :) There's nognog, bantot, hairy, etc... :D :D :D
people commenting racist are actually the ones who are racist paano mo naman nasabi na French national agad ang nag offload just because airfrance? He specifically said ground staff in Bangkok. Hindi ba pwede Thai sila or Asian or another nationality? kaloka also naamoy mo ba? gineralize na lahat na stinky it’s like saying since maraming magnanakaw na politicians sa Pilipinas mag nanakaw na lahat ng Pilipino or since from middle east may possibility na terrorist sila. It is normal na question ka if ang visa san ka nag apply is different from your point of entry. Just because you booked business class doesnt exempt you from the rules. sumunod ka sa rules wala ka magiging problem ganun ka simple.
Ummm. There is a reason why a lot of people say the French are racist. It’s common for them to be rude and snotty, especially to anyone who is non-French.
Flew Airfrance before and I must agree with Enchong. Worst. They even lost one of our luggage from Nice to Paris. Food was so bad and FAs couldn't care less. I thought worst na ang PAL experience ko ng MNL to LAx pero after mas haggard pala Airfrance.
257 true but there’s probably more to it. weve only heard one side of the story. i find it strange that the ground crew will offload him just because they want to powertrip reason esp when he’s flying business class theyre not that stupid to risk potential lawsuits. if theyre bored and they couldve targetted the economy class passengers not the business. ill take his version of the story with a grain of salt something just doesnt add up in my opinion
French people are arrogant. Bagay sila ng mga Quebecois, who are their relatives anyway. Don't take it personally unless nagbayad ka ng malaki. Then you show some sass.
There are holes to your story. Flying in to London to circumvent your issue most definitely created further issues with your ticket. Exactly wag sisihin ang sistema. Air France employees were only doing their job because kung may issue sa visa mo when you land, airlines are monetarily penalized. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse and do not use the race card if the rules dont work in your favor.
Off topic lang..had dinner alone sa Paris dati. Hindi naman racism at all pero very weird vibe lang na parang di ka nila bet sa resto. The place has an Asian couple, white female diner na mag isa din etc etc. I just noticed lang na chika ang mga server sa lahat except sa akin. I ordered food and all a. Basta may something! Ang conclusion ko is maybe lalaki ako na mag isa kaya no need effortan.
Medyo hindi sila warm agad. But when you speak a little bit of their language, may onting gaan na hehe. Sa Switzerland and naman ako natarayan. I asked lang kung ano order nung solo diner sa tabi namin tapos ang sagot sa akin tipong yan lang balak niyo na order? So sabi ko talaga no, kaya nga tinatanong ko kasi I'd be ordering other complementary dishes. Anyway hehe...
Possible reasons: 1. “Main destination” rule Kapag nag-apply ka ng Schengen visa, kailangan mo sabihin kung saan country ka pinaka-magtatagal. Kung ang visa mo ay galing France, ibig sabihin: 👉 France ang declared main destination mo Kung diretso kang pupunta sa Spain (Madrid) at walang malinaw na plano pumunta sa France, red flag ‘yun sa immigration. 2. First point of entry expectation (minsan) Hindi always required, pero kung France ang nag-issue ng visa, kadalasan inaasahan na: 👉 Doon ka unang papasok OR may valid explanation kung bakit hindi 3. Suspicion of “visa shopping” Kapag mukhang ginamit lang ang France para makakuha ng visa pero ibang country talaga ang pupuntahan, puwedeng isipin na: 👉 Nilabag ang visa intent Dahil dito, puwedeng ma-offload (di payagang bumiyahe).
Bottom line Oo, border-free ang travel within Schengen once nasa loob ka na. Pero ang issue ay bago ka pa makapasok—sa airport pa lang ng departure country, tine-check na kung tugma ang visa mo sa plano mong biyahe.
Yes. Some people do abuse the system. At sa taas ng pinoy tnt sa Spain naghihigpit talaga sila pag Philippine passport holder ka. Kaya yung iba apply ng visa sa ibang schengen country
First, walang right yung airlines na magrevoke ng Schengen Visa, it is done by the embassy of the Schengen State. If Madrid destination niya pwede niya iargue na mag France siya ng matagal and this is done kapag nainterview na siya ng IO sa Madrid.
Second, bakit pa siya magflfly ng London kung ang issue lang naman is need niya dumaan ng Paris eh ang AirFrance is derecho naman Paris.
Third, nagpost siya ng pictures niya sa London so mahabang layover ang nangyari. Kung nagfly siya via Airfrance ano yun naging Manila to Paris, Paris to London tapos London to Paris ulit?
We flew couple of times with Air France kaya I can attest na an service nila ay So So Minsan ok Minsan Hindi. There was even one time that they totally forgot to give my son food (he was still a toddler at that time) binabaonan ko kc an anak ko ng food and some toys everytime bumabyahe kami and Kun type nya Yun food ko eh sinusubuan ko din xa cguro dahil din sa pagod/puyat that I only realized paguwi namin ng Bahay na Hindi xa nabigyan ng pagkain nor any toy/form of entertainment for kids on board 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ atska they are really racist Lalo na Kun Hindi ka White or don't speak French most esp Yun mga older crew nila Yan an napansin ko tapos they expect everyone speaks French Buti na lang xempre kasama ko c hubby everytime. Ibang iba talaga sa SQ alagang alaga ka from the moment you step in kaya Enchong next time don't fly European carriers they are not nice. Mag Asian or Middle eastern carriers ka like SQ, JAL, Korean air, Qatar Airways or Emirates pero for me SQ talaga the best Lalo na for long haul flights 👍🏻
First of all bago ka pa mag apply ng Schengen, hahanapin na ang plane tickets mo. So bakit sya nabigyan sa French embassy if ang pinakita nyang air tickets ay Madrid? Malabo ang kwento. I dont believe na racist sila sa Business class, been flying with them on Business class wala naman ganyang kaganapan, unless ikwento ni accla ang buong kwento why Spain ang punta tapos galing sa French embassy ang visa, nag change route ba sya at di sinunod kung ano ang mga sinubmit nya sa embassy? Noone knows
Wala sya namention bakit France sya kumuha visa pero nsa Madrid sya, di nya nilinaw san longest stay nya. Palagi ako sa France kumukuha ng Schengen Visa kasi mabilis at straight to the point ang requirements unlike sa Italy na pati train tickets hahanapin sayo eh mostly ang train tix cant be cancelled if u change your plans.Actually di na nila ako tinatanong once I entered Schengen countries. Baka nag attitude kaya napagtripan ng airlines, ok naman for me ang AirFrance no racism na experience sa knila, mabait ang mga staff sa business class from lounge to plane, lagi nga lang delayed flights sila

hirap din yun ah nakakastress
ReplyDeleteGrabe, pwede dapat yun! Pag Schengen, yung issuing visa could be: Your point of entry OR country you're staying at the longest.
DeleteEnchong could be staying in Paris the longest kaya yun yung visa nya kahit Madrid entry point nya.
True. Pano nalang kung mahirap ka at walang pambili ng tickets kaloka
DeleteNo po, kung ano nsa visa nya yun dapat ang entry point nya kaya nga naka mention yun sa visa. Period.
Delete8:07 Google is free. Also, yun yung process when I went to Europe.
DeleteIn fact, mas priority pa nga yung longest stay vs. entry point.
Business class in Air France felt racist since you are the only Asian there? Pls justify how are they racist towards you?
ReplyDeleteAirline services start from the check in counters. Go figure!
DeleteTeh ni narrate na nga nya. Kulang pa para ma comprehend?

May katotohanan naman talaga na biggest accomplishments ng pinay magAsawa ng foreigner, no wonder may stigma

DeleteFrench people are well known for their snotty attitude. I would not be surprised that he felt they were racist because they most often are.
DeleteAir France sucks! They lost my luggage in Paris and it took them 7 days to locate it. Had to buy new luggage, clothes, etc. while on vacation. They did not even pay me back. Do not fly with Air France!!!
ReplyDeleteIm gonna fly next month with them, are they strict wirh carry on sizes?
DeleteI'm sorry it happened to you. Happened to me before (not Air France though) that's why it's important to have travel insurance.
Delete12:34 insurance is useless. UA lost my luggage, filed a claim through the insurance. Walang nangyare. Kasi siguro UA found the luggage after a few days. But still, they should still have compensated.
Delete1:38 Insurance is not always useless, ex: in case of medical emergency. Like you said, UA found your luggage so they didn't reimburse.

ReplyDeletegirl hindi yun ganun wag magmatu if dipa nagkaschengen visa
DeleteYou obviously don’t know how the Schengen visa works. Air France was wrong to deny him boarding for his trip to Madrid.
Delete12:44 Germany ang nag issue saken pero Italy ang entry point ko at okay lang naman
DeleteYou’re incorrect. My issuing schengen visa is Norway. My entry point is france. I didn’t get offloaded or blocked.

Agree to your possible scenarios.
DeleteAlso (London) UK is not in the shengen area. Unless may UK visa din sya.
Delete1:58 Good point. Another possibility is he probably bought a British Airways ticket BKK/xLHR/CDG, transit LHR, so he doesn't need a UK visa.
DeleteAnd, as you have mentioned… French people have the worst and most rude attitude among Europeans.
DeleteI agree that Air france (or Most French People) are actually racist.. They really suck..
ReplyDeleteThey are so arrogant yet they stink!
DeleteTHIS!!! Somehow they have this belief that they are better than other people.
