The movie is out on You Tube in Arabic. Also the webpage is uodated with the movie. Thats it? I think they are absolutely right 'Like Never before' will you see so much drama for something as an advert.

So that was what all the fuss was about... Huge disappointment.

The movie (if you can call it that) isn't bad but it definitely does not live up to the "oscar worthy" hype which QR created in the run-up to the release.

Let's just wait and see.

I hope it's not a self-celebratory thing that does not benefit customers at all.

I actually liked the "movie" and thought that it was well done, pleasant to watch. I hope that I like the sale as much!

I had already heard that there was a new Mary Poppins movie coming, but wasn't it a bit short ?

And a two-day extension of an amazingly-underwhelming 'Sale', it just has to be a teaser, when will the real Sale start ?

The prices I've seen this far are 15-25% too-high, compared even to last-years' offers, which weren't wonderful IMO.

It's quite a nice advert I'd say, but I still would say it's way too overhyped, and all the teasing is over the top.

Now, a classic QR move?

Then hurry up, the „sale“ was extended for just 2 (!!) days...
By the way, this „sale“ did mean that I had to pay 2400 EUR instead of 2100 EUR on my preferred route.....

I kinda hope that, instead of just this commercial, there would be a good sale for flights ex-Asia like ex-CMB or CGK last year but, well there's none!

I'm based in South East Asia and to be honest the current sale is a joke as all J fares ex BKK, KUL, SIN etc are in the range of $3000+. (Spotted CGK-AMS for $2000 from even before the sale but still ...) Guess they have to make up the difference from cheap fares ex-Scandinavia here huh.

Exactly my point. The movie was very good. Now just waiting for the sale....
