      who told you life is fair? it's actually completely reverse, if you are starving then you gotta help yourself, if you can't then shut the hell up, bcuz someone flying in a 1st class and treated like a prince doesn't mean he has to sit and cry for the world misery, it's the staff mistake to put the TV on BBc channel bcuz bbc shows noting but shit stuff.

      Toni In this particular case, you know the starving children who are living through a civil war in a politically unstable country, I think they have little opportunity to “help themselves”. Although, I do love how you think that media stations like BBC who were created to inform the public of what’s going on in the world should just ignore humanitarian crises and human suffering. That’s not irresponsible or twisted at all!

      @@kittypride8234 that's life, yes they are starving so what? we have starved and suffered too & i learnt that in this life you either help yourself or nobody will help you, yes they don't have much & they have to manage with what they have, BBC is owned by gov, gov is full of shit so is the bbc, this is not what's going on in the world, what's going on is that few rich people don't mind mass murdering the world for money and power that's what's going on, you should go and take it up with the once who created such a shit world, people who slaved everyone.

It's just ironic to think that rich people could afford to pay thousands of dollar for the first class ticket where they will be treated like a king for the duration of only a few hours. I understand that it's their money and they have worked hard for it, but it is really sad knowing that there are people in other parts of the world, struggling to put food on the table for them and their family ='(

      Saw someone starving & begging for a 2nd pack of biscuits on a rather long, no meal flight. "Well Sir if we give it to you we have to give it to everyone." Everyone within earshot practically screamed no, said they swore they wouldn't ask, just please give him a 2nd packet. Finally after about 20 minutes a passenger gave him a packet he'd decided not to eat (or maybe swiped from sleeping neighbor.) Guy might have been diabetic & embarrassed to say it, or just starving, but never seen anyone beg like that (not even homeless.) Poor guy. Jerk airlines.

      I'm sure you could dismiss them if you wanted privacy. You can tell the whole service is set up for people high profile enough to want complete privacy -- hence them being last on and last off, not to mention the private lounge, etc. A person with enough money to travel this way regularly more than likely has a personal assistant that would either interface as an intermediary between the butler service and the guest, (or) they would deliver specific conduct instructions to the staff.

    First of all, ABU to MOM is 3.5 hours, not 2.5. $3-4K isn't bad at all for this level of service even if it's on a shorter flight. For someone who enjoys traveling and has the means, this is absolutely worth it. Some people always feel the need to bash people with money, saying "oh you're spending $$$ on xxx while millions lives in poverty". How do you know this guy isn't donating money to people in need? These videos are meant to be entertaining and maybe a guide for those who are looking for similar experiences. Stop judging from your baseless assumptions.

Although a first class experience like this would also be great, it's definitely a once in a time thing for me as I'm a enormous aviation lover and love the process more so than the destination. The saddest part for me is leaving the airports hehe

      Broke.. where did the money go.. ? you bought some stupid clothes or some rent payment or car payment ramping up your expenses and your profit from your time invested in working = 0. Keep expenses at 0 (live with parents) and your profit will be insanely high. If you're broke, it is simple. Have more money. Pay attention to your finances and where you allocate your money. I'm 17 and unemployed whilst having 4,871$ in my drawer. You both are not very smart about your finances.

One hopes that this level of achievement will soon extend to the social and "inter-nation" arenas so that hatred, exploitation, poverty and war will be eliminated for all!

      Well when you think of it, the first class and business class is the biggest revenue for airlines while economy is just a fill in for the plane. Knowing this, the workers will understand that you as a first class or business class customer are the reason they have jobs. So obviously they will smile when you walk in because they are there because of you. Yes there will be some that have fake smiles but you have that in every class of society. Cant believe some people are so annoyed by someone else giving them a smile.

Ok maybe not drive but you wouldn't need an A380 more like an A320/321 Edit- A380's are meant for very long distance hense why they are double decker and carry hundreds of passengers, example-London Heathrow to Sydney obviously you would stop of at Dubai which is I think a 24hour flight probably longer

When I fly economy, flight attendants are very unkind, not happy, and look like they haven't got a raise in their lives. When I fly business or first, I see enthusiastic flight attendants that love their job and look like they respect you but they actually don't and just want to be nice to wealthy people and their money. A sad reality indeed.

    The thought of hundreds of thousands of pounds of steel, aluminium, plastic and fuel flying 7 to 8 miles high at a speed of 600 mph with hundreds of lives on board never ceases to amaze me.
    Seriously, think about that. My great granny was born in 1879. As a kid, she traveled west at about 20 miles a day on a good day. It took the family an entire summer and nearly everything they owned to travel across the country. When she passed in 1978, humans could buy a ticket for a few hundred dollars, just a few days worth of work, and travel 600 miles in one hour.
    Sit back, eat a questionable meal, eat a bag of peanuts and have a Diet Coke while you are hurling through the sky at a rate of 6 miles a minute

    Sam, I am a very big fan. I am a flight dispatcher in the USA working for an American regional airline (an Embraer operator) and have been an airplane geek for over 50 years (my first flight at age five). I must say this presentation of the Etihad Residence was outstanding in two ways: First, it was extremely well filmed (all of your films are) and second, it really showed the experience from the the "point of view" of the passenger. I must say that to experience that level of service is probably best reserved on a ultra long haul service where you have the time to take it all in. That said, you packed it all into an almost three hour flight at probably 1/7th the cost of a ticket.
    I will be flying around the world in 2017 (in 15 days, I think) and my goal this go is to kind of enjoy the different airlines going around, so for certain I will be making a stop either in Abu Dhabi or Dubai on my way from Asia to Europe. Sadly, I can't afford The Residence, but then again, it would be an amazing experience.
    Thank you for giving us a perspective that many don't get to see; in a way that really demonstrates what we can do for our guests, on the ground and in the air.
    All the best...

      Humanity will not evolve under this monetary system, we are going backwards, and no one seems to see this.
      They are using racism to divide the people, pitting blacks and whites, the Left vs Right, all of us against each other, and even, against our own. Think about the tactics they use, we see, hear, and feel all this racism, feminism, multiculturalism, etc. They don't even need obedient workers anymore they now can automate and use robots. Sowing the seeds now so when they cut the jobs off the money off, the food off - we will destroy each other while they sit back drinking mimosa.
      The only way we can make things better is to do away with this monetary system. We have the ability and the technology to make this planet an amazing place, where peace, love, and freedom could rule the land, yet we choose to live this way. We have the technology to make anything run cleaner, last longer, and have no cost. Tesla made free energy that was destroyed by J.P Morgan because with “Free stuff”, one cannot enslave the masses. I do not care what you believe in, I am telling you, both the left-wing and the right-wing belong to the same bird. The monetary system is/has taken over this planet and we continue to work for them because we are enslaved. Our natural resources are diminishing. Meanwhile, our population is exponentially increasing. Any and all scientist agree the resources are running out. NASA says it will happen within just a couple decades.

      Did you know President George W. Bush bought 298,840 acres of land in Paraguay? Bush did not buy this land for any other reason besides the fact that it sits on top of the biggest aquifer on planet earth. Aquifer Guarani covers roughly 460,000 square miles under parts of Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina. What do you think this world will look like when water is the new GOLD? Do you want your children to live in a savage world? It all comes down to this people. That upon everything else, what do you want for your children? This is not about racism, it is about Good vs Evil.
      George Carlin said, "The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own, and control the corporations. They've long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying. Lobbying, to get what they want.
      Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests."
      He is right, they do not want people uniting, so they make all the ISMS to divide us. "Racism", "Multiculturalism", "Feminism", etc.etc.
      They have done a damn good job. We need forward thinking, logical, hardworking people to overcome, and everyone has lost hope.
      This planet needs a whole new system. ua-cam.com/video/KphWsnhZ4Ag/v-deo.html The Choice is Ours. The people need to remove political agendas along with having the open-mindedness and willingness to overcome. I know this would take many many moons to achieve but a change is already on its way, and so far its looking like whites are going to be the blame for everything throughout history, and this is why we are watching white genocide take place all over the world today, and no one is saying anything about it. Only the winners write history and we are losing this war so far. We have some huge decisions to make. Do we want to RULE this planet, rid this country of all other races, and bully the world taking all the power we can, or do we want peace, and trust that "all men are created equal"?
      No men are created equal under this monetary system. It breeds division and gives birth to classes.
      Do not get upset at me, I am simply stating the truths. I honestly believe we need to unite and start communicating our options, or we can just sit back and enjoy the ride until they come knocking on our door. They are coming either way. The way I see it, these elites are causing all this shit to happen, and they keep us divided, undecided, and oblivious to the endgame. Before we know it we are going to be outnumbered everywhere, and this whole country, along with the rest of the world is going to turn into a third-world shit hole so they can KEEP IN POWER, behind their fucking mansions. We got to start using our heads people.
      I know you all see that the majority of us seem to be fucking crazy anymore too. I don't know if it’s the air we are breathing, or in the food, we are eating but some shit is going down. Too many are unable to rationalize, considerate, and articulate anymore. I am afraid we are running out of time, and they are poisoning our brains to top it all off.
      Call me crazy, or whatever the hell you want, but you know I am right.

      It's like David Lee Roth said, "Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a yacht big enough to pull up right alongside it."

      Yeah, that's how they brainwash you into staying poor. So they can keep be rich and you can stay a peasant.
