Influencer claiming to be stranded by Iran war blows off economy seats
Share this @internewscast.com

A travel influencer has come under fire from his followers after he claimed to be “stranded” in Singapore due to flight disruptions in the Middle East, despite the availability of economy seats.

Daniel Goz, known to his over one million YouTube subscribers as NonStop Dan, sparked controversy with his video titled “There Are No Flights Left.” In the video, posted on March 4, Goz recounted his journey from Bali to Dubai, which included a stopover in Singapore where he claimed to be stuck. He highlighted this with a graphic showing upcoming flights.

However, he did mention that “there are a few seats on some days in economy.” This admission didn’t sit well with viewers, who took to the comments section to express their disbelief and frustration over his predicament.

One user on X commented, “I 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.”

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.”
