A travel influencer landed in hot water with furious followers after claiming he was “stranded” in Singapore due to Middle East flight disruptions when there were still economy seats available.
Daniel Goz, the popular YouTuber better known as NonStop Dan, posted a video called “There Are No Flights Left” to his more than 1 million subscribers.
In the March 4 post, he explained he had been flying from Bali to Dubai with a stopover in Singapore, where he was “stranded,” while displaying a graphic of upcoming flights.
He then noted that “there are a few seats on some days in economy.”
The online whine didn’t fly for shocked viewers who rushed the gangway to flood his feed with comments on his boarding bellyache.
An X user wrote: “Laughed for 15 minutes straight at this airline reviewer claiming he got stranded in Singapore on his way to Dubai and that there are indeed flights, he just doesn’t want to fly economy class.”
Another chimed in: “Absolutely hilarious that Dan would rather wait two weeks in Singapore without seeing his family rather than dealing with the horror of traveling economy.”
A third joked: “My thoughts are with the premium passengers and those in danger of flying economy.”
Goz — who grew up in London but now lives in Sweden — first started traveling at the age of 12, and decided to turn his passion for it into a career. The content creator has made roughly 700 videos so far.
Now, 26, he reviews different airlines around the world, having flown with more than 160 different ones to date.
After the jet stream of comments, Goz quickly shortened the video by a minute and changed the title to: “Millions Of Travelers Are About To Be Stranded.”
Facing mounting criticism, the red-faced flyer later pinned a comment of his own.
“Lots of you are saying ‘just fly economy! and I totally get that,” he said. “The few remaining economy seats are going for $1500+ per person one-way and even those will be booked up soon. I mentioned premium cabins because that’s what this channel usually covers.”
He ended with an encouraging, “Stay safe everyone.”
