Mediocre Air France A350 Business Class CDG-DFW
Quick video today reviewing Air France Business Class. They have a small subset of A350 with this mediocre business class unlike the rest of their fleet. Still comfortable, but nothing special to write home about. I hope one day I get to try their newer product.
Booked using only 56,000 miles BSL-CDG-DFW September 2023.

ALONE in Etihad A380 First Class Apartments
Переглядів 12 тис.6 місяців тому
Join me on a fantastic journey from Bangkok to London, via Phuket and Abu Dhabi with Etihad Airways. On the first segments, we check out Etihad Business Studio on the 787-9 Dreamliner. But the real treat comes in AUH, where we board the A380 in the First Class Apartment to London. The craziest part? I was the only passenger and had this plane to myself. Booked using 100,000 Aeroplan miles from ...
Cramped in Singapore Airlines A350 Business Class PVG-SIN-BKK

Join me on a product that I am very torn about - I love Singapore Airlines and their service. Does chicken satay, peanut sauce, and delicious cocktails cancel out a subpar business class seat?
ALONE in EVA AIR Business Class Taipei (TPE) to Shanghai (PVG)
Переглядів 1,2 тис.9 місяців тому
Have you ever been the only passenger on a flight? It's such a weird experience and added to my surreal travels between Taiwan and China. I booked this business class flight 1 day before departure for 15k Aeroplan Miles transferred from Chase Multi,ate Rewards.
Cathay Pacific A350 Business Class Delhi (DEL) to Hong Kong (HKG) and checking out Victoria Peak
Переглядів 4,9 тис.9 місяців тому
Join me as I explore to Delhi city center before flying Cathay Pacific Business Class on the A350-900 to Hong Kong. There I head into the city to check out Victoria Peak for amazing views. I booked this flight by transfering 60K Marriott Points to Cathay, which translated into 25K Asia Miles to book the flight. Not bad for 5 hours in Business Class across Asia!
Finnair A350 Business Class Helsinki (HEL) to New Delhi (DEL)

Fly with me in business class from Helsinki, Finland to New Delhi in Finnair's new business class on the A350. I really liked this sleep for lounging and sleeping in various positions in your custom couch in the sky. Great bedding! I would like to try it on a longer flight to experience more meal choices and see how the comfort stacks up for a long haul. I booked this flight using 45K Alaska Ai...
Lufthansa 747-8 Business Class Houston (IAH) to Frankfurt (FRA)
Переглядів 9 тис.11 місяців тому
Join me as I fly the Lufthansa 747-8 upper deck in business class from Houston to Frankfurt. I got to enjoy the Polaris lounge at IAH before the flight and had time on my layover in Frankfurt to take a short trip to Bacharach, a scenic and charming village on the Rhine River. I booked this flight using 47k Chase Ultimate Reward Points during a 20% transfer bonus period to Air Canada, a partner ...
Landing in a Helicopter on Mendenhall Glacier Alaska!
Переглядів 65411 місяців тому
While on our cruise in Alaska, the highlight was taking a helicopter flight with North Star Helicopters in Juneau. Not only did we get to go on a 30 minute scenic flight around the ice field and mountains, but land on the Mendenhall glacier for a 2 hour trek. Worth every penny!

Join me on this legendary flight hopping across the inside passage of Alaska. On these short flights you will see coastal towns, glaciers, icy lagoons, and endless mountain peaks. Have you ever flown on the Alaska Milk Run?

    The food was not any better than Delta - maybe the cheese. The new A350 first row is very nice , row 10 center seats are just the same as any other seat. But the seats in row 10 are too close to the galley and restrooms. Eat in the lounges.

    AF Business food is mediocre. I think economy is better. Seat though nice. Entrtetainment limited. Crew nice but seemed stressed. CDG and Amsterdam are terrible airports. So is Frankfurt. The bread they serve is like rubber. However with 2 connections we got our bags. Impressive!!

    Very good review. Etihad business class is wonderful - comfortable, stylish, great food. I've not flown First on the A380 but it is even more amazing. Weirdly I quite like one or two other people in a cabin. At least at the bar there were people from Business class.

    I agree with you that Singapore Airlines has a good reputation but personally I am certainly confused as to why. In-air service is as good as United or Cathay Pacific or other airlines, but in terms of on-ground experiences they are certainly at the back of the pack. Website, telephone support (the Indian call center did not speak adequate English to help the American-based caller and had no information other than up-selling insurance), and especially the website are all lacking. Truly a second rate airline. I can only guess that they pay review sites to bump up their reputation. And I would have to agree with HengryGoh down below; MH Satay is so much better.

    Worst airline.....read the fine print, no date changes allowed unless full business flex.......my friend passed away unexpectedly in an accident and I needed to move my flight to attend the funeral, this was not possible, not even a flight credit......lost two tickets at $28k HKD. The airline lacks any empathy and has a terrible customer experience.

    Can I ask you if there is an airside international transit at Delhi Airport? I have two separate bookings both international, and about 4 hours of transit time in-between. While I do already have the India 1-year tourist visa, I wonder if you saw an easier option of transiting without having to go through passport control? Thanks!

    • @hemantb19
      @hemantb19 9 місяців тому

      There is an international airside transit option at DEL, however, you oughta have your connecting flight and your bag checked-in through to the final destination. If you have separate bookings, its likely you'll need to collect your bag (after going through immigration), and check-in again. Bit of a hassle I can imagine, however, 4 hours transit time is more than enough at DEL.
