This is not my first time flying The Residence. One of the main goal I have here is to make a better video to share the experience so I invested in better gears, with a professional videographer traveling with me. Unlike the first and second time which I paid my own Residence flight, this (3rd time!) is indeed an invite from Etihad like i mentioned early in the video. I asked to go one way in The Residence and return in economy to have a feel the differences.

Actually... No. Those that can indeed afford the residence flight probably have a high enough rate that, they either 1. don't care about the price at all, or 2. just need more "full power" time to make more money which worths way more than the extra few hours of luxury time.
I work in hospitality (fancy ass buffet) and I've started watching these videos to get pointers from the wait/stewarding staff - the butlers and whatnot. They are always amazing right down to posture and body language. Airlines have the highest quality customer service no doubt about it.
I'd be more encouraged if the flight were discounted by 80%. For 20k I could instead go up in a MIG-29 to the edge of space around 53k-60k ft up and pull 8 G's. Go sleep through that!
they call complimentary everything even if is nothing special .. just to make it sound like they give you something. like saying .... the oxygen and cabin pressure is complimentary. please enjoy
Interesting video as usual. What is fascinating to me is the food presentation, and how service is given. Food & drink service, presentation, how staff acts, the wording they use, the flow of service, how they anticipate guests needs. And of course the ability to deliver this in the sky!
@@nathanimunir "you've lost weight" is kind of both mean and nice at same time, Because he is saying you're in better shape, but he is also saying last time you was overweight
I agree. Too many people groveling. While it's nice having someone bring you to the airport and guide you through check-in, etc., All those toadies keep you "on stage". I'd be worn out by the time the plane took off.
@Alex Taylor stupid, he was invited to try this out for FREE! He promoted this new product. Now, you coward, are a envious not even worth talking with.
Wow what an experience, I butler constantly interacting with you to service your every need. It's really comfort at it finest. Obviously there is the cost to this premium experience but experiencing it even once is worth the absolute care and dedication to your every need. Some people may want privacy or are socially anxious but they honestly oblige to your every need, what more do you want LOL.
Because of you, Sam, every time I see an Etihad butler, I only think of Leanne. She was so professional and set the standard very very high. You’re very lucky to have been served by her.
@Light York Well, in Polish you say "Chui" same as "Chuj" which mean - "Dick" :D Regarding Leanne. I remember her in first flight and in the second flight. She was eager and professional but last time her behavior was different. It was evident that she felt disgusted and embarrassed...
I agree, it's just too much excess, practically a crime! We've got homeless people on the street who don't know if they can eat today, and then you have all this disgusting excess and too much food. Too much unbalance in this world. Just crazy!
I just marvel at the beauty and greatness of your return flight in the economy class, so much to see that it took a boatload of the video time. Wish you can have add more video time to the residence experience by taking a bit of that time from the huge economy class experience.
Thank you. Unlike the first two times I paid my own Residence flight, this (3rd time!) is indeed an invite from Etihad like i mentioned early in the video. I asked to go one way in The Residence and return in economy to have a feel the differences.
Obaid Tariq lemme retype that for you: all the people in economy class cant wait for the flight to be over but on the other hand sam does not want the flight to be over.
The only thing which surprises me is that everyone is suprised at Sam's politeness! It is not the behaviour of Nobility or Class to treat ANYONE rudely or badly. Manners are.imperative.
Best I could afford on Ethiad is Business Class. Flew it 8 times to Abu Dhabi. Loved it. My favorite airline by far. Thanks for showing me the next step up I won't ever be able to afford!

My social anxiety would've been off the charts with the butler smiling at me every two minutes showing me how much he did for me ..I know it's supposed to be a great thing,but I would feel like I HAD to constantly interact with everyone instead of relax and enjoy the food and comforts 🥺
Imagine the waiter starts providing a worse service, because he knows youre terrified and wont stand up. As a SA sufferer, I probably wouldnt complain.
i think im the same as you.. i usually prefer to be left alone and just get to my destination with as little fuss as possible. i love doing things for myself and cant get used to being waited upon, especially at that level.
I watch Sam as it reminds me of my days as a CEO, more days away from home than at home. Days long gone now but I still love the experience of travel and flying. I flew mainly business but enjoyed first with Emirates, It is still special when done well.
Eben Cole it doesn’t really matter his dad has a lot of money and if it’s a bad thing then so be it because he’ll have to beg . Life will always give you what you work for and deserve
@Light York I see! Thanks a lot for that articulate explanation! It makes perfect sense as operators -- whenever & as able as they can -- will find all means possible just to save on fuel cost. Again, thank you! Cheers & mabuhay, from the Philippines! 🇵🇭
They're all pre warned about this, Sam is there to advertise the seat for the company I'd guess so they'll likely tell or even train staff beforehand so they know how to act on camera. Likely not far different to the normal service they'd give for £20k but there will be some differences. A lot of the flights Sam goes on give special service because they know it's advertising
Im watching this in total awe of this man's charisma and the beauty of this experience. I've never seen any of this guy's videos but I watch Noel Phillips and this was in my suggestion box. I am so glad I've found this.
@@84602 Honestly If I was stupid rich or a C level at any major company and I had to travel a lot the bed would be the only thing I cared about honestly. As someone who travelled a lot on long flights. You never get used to sleeping on a plane seat. Even when you get a whole row to yourself flying international. Comfort is luxury. Its not necessary and I wouldnt spend on it even if I was a C level but I can understand why you would get it. Other than some people being vain and narcissictic about their wealth.
Comfort on a flight is great.... but for me this would be too much.... always someone jumping around you.... for me anything above Business Class is not necessary
you could just tell them not to bother you. I agree that most features above business are unnecessary but i i had the money i would be using first class every time
Hy mr Sam chui it is great for me I have every day watched your aviation vlog and i can’t stop watching it and most part of your videos I like the way of your showing hospitality to people .loved it mr sam
Good hospitality makes people feel comfortable even though it can be fake as well, but it shows that you are professional. But those all slavery thing, way too much.

@Jani Salo EXACTLY. He has surpassed critical mass in the social media world. He never pays a dime. None of this would happen without all the subscribers and all the likes. I wonder what he does for revenue though. It can be expensive globetrotting even with someone else paying for everything.

it gets weird at some point as everyone jumps on him offering their help with their fake smiles
Egyptian Doctor Their trained to always put a smile
حاجة مبالغ فيها فعلا
محمد الوشاحي طبعاً واحد دافع 20000 دولار لو طلب يقلعوا كلهم لازم يقلعوا 😂
Egyptian Doctor lol
Not as weird as the tuxedo...
The dude just woke up an there serving him champagne lol
For $20,000 , they need to make him feel as high as possible.
I watch Sam as it reminds me of my days as a CEO, more days away from home than at home. Days long gone now but I still love the experience of travel and flying. I flew mainly business but enjoyed first with Emirates, It is still special when done well.
9:53 “so this is business class?”
What I imagine is going through his mind - “Hello peasants”
Eben Cole ooooo someone is jealous here
😆😂
:)
Eben Cole it doesn’t really matter his dad has a lot of money and if it’s a bad thing then so be it because he’ll have to beg . Life will always give you what you work for and deserve
Benjamin Hausmann at least Apple hasn’t got a explosive phone.....................
First Class Passengers: Make the flight longer please I want to enjoy the luxury.
Economy Class Passengers: I want this flight to end now!
@Light York Is that real? I mean the performance bonus on fuel savings for pilots? Thanks!
Just like in one of the comments somewhere here -- the economy section is a slum!
@Light York I see! Thanks a lot for that articulate explanation!
It makes perfect sense as operators -- whenever & as able as they can -- will find all means possible just to save on fuel cost.
Again, thank you!
Cheers & mabuhay, from the Philippines! 🇵🇭
Both class passangers arrive same city
So true,
Ill be honest, I can't take this level of pamper.😂
Same bro
arnob chowdhury best comment ever!
UNDERRATED COMMENT
I would prefer to spend the whole flight asleep and be left alone lol
same
Always so humble Sam. Thanks for keeping it real.
This video called me poor in a million languages
It didnt😆
11:43 imagine explaining the contents of the menu while a guy films you
Asian Guy what money does 😂
Asian Guy I was thinking the same thing! So awkward!
Honestly, there's already one guy filming no need to get the close up of the chef lol
They're all pre warned about this, Sam is there to advertise the seat for the company I'd guess so they'll likely tell or even train staff beforehand so they know how to act on camera. Likely not far different to the normal service they'd give for £20k but there will be some differences. A lot of the flights Sam goes on give special service because they know it's advertising
Im watching this in total awe of this man's charisma and the beauty of this experience. I've never seen any of this guy's videos but I watch Noel Phillips and this was in my suggestion box. I am so glad I've found this.
His life
Eat
Eat more

Yep i also was thinking the same
YOU FORGOT *FLY*
My dream
rich you're when to get You
You didn't see the other side of the coin... Its really bitter to reach where someone like him
I love the Etihad's pilots and flight attendants 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
$20,000 residence
Sleeps through the majority of the flight
That's the whole point. It's all about the sleep actually. Only difference is how comfortable it is
@@84602 Honestly If I was stupid rich or a C level at any major company and I had to travel a lot the bed would be the only thing I cared about honestly.
As someone who travelled a lot on long flights. You never get used to sleeping on a plane seat. Even when you get a whole row to yourself flying international. Comfort is luxury.
Its not necessary and I wouldnt spend on it even if I was a C level but I can understand why you would get it. Other than some people being vain and narcissictic about their wealth.
I would fly on residente if all the girls attenders sleep with me on the bed.
The best thing in life is to have Sex, eat, sleep, and money.
can you pre-chew my food, it's such a pain
Sam Chewy
Lmfao
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@PradeepMenon666 Sam Chewy is right.
Rob The Slob lol
Dude for $20,000 i’m gonna be a couple months early for my flight
for $20.000 the flight should include a shagg with one of the top models crew...
fuck yeah, move in 6 months before hand..
@@thundercatsito xD
Once again a wonderful video. Thank you Sam! What a great experience.
Somebody:Attacks Sam in the plane while sleeping.
Butler with a shotgun: You picked the wrong house fool!
Wrong suit *
Wrong residence *
wrong plane *
But he said its like a home
Wrong universe*
Comfort on a flight is great.... but for me this would be too much.... always someone jumping around you.... for me anything above Business Class is not necessary
Obviously never turned left when entering a plane.
@@DJSbarton hahaha well said ✌️😂
you could just tell them not to bother you. I agree that most features above business are unnecessary but i i had the money i would be using first class every time
If u don't like it, you can tell them that.
this wasn't made for people like you and I though
I picture the “personal chef” sitting by vent window smoking a cigarette while microwaving the food 😂
Mati lol
LOL
Waffle House cook lol
Mati haha, what a name
Hy mr Sam chui it is great for me I have every day watched your aviation vlog and i can’t stop watching it and most part of your videos I like the way of your showing hospitality to people .loved it mr sam
Imagine if that butler watches him sleep to see if he sleeps good
justin Y. It would be wird
Ahh the fake Justin Y.
That's freakin' creepy my guy
so creepy !!
Omg. xD Sir Chui, is your reast satisfying?
Sam Chui: The Residence is a once in a life time experience
Sam Chui: *Flies it two more times*
Okay but honestly that butler was so sweet and adorable
Gay... 😂
Tu es le meilleur
When the butler gets on one knee to present the menu and the certificate is way too much lol
Yeah, absolutely too much. like a slavery
Yeah it's just slavery with extra steps. Fake smiles fake plesentries.
Uh, so cringy
Good hospitality makes people feel comfortable even though it can be fake as well, but it shows that you are professional. But those all slavery thing, way too much.
I love that butler! He even got him a present. How thoughtful of him. Great job buddy
"You lost weight" Sam is a nice guy but low key a savage.
Sebastian Garcia lol
lol
lol
lol
Sams just bitter that he gained the weight the lounge lady lost
Best of luck sir 👍 b happy masha Allah
Haha the funny part asking captain to make the flight longer😂😂😁
Mahesh Khubchand I mean an extra 10 hour loop can’t hurt can it?
Or telling the servent that she has lost weight 😅
Craig Eagle I cringed at that.
for that amount of 💰💰 you need the flight to be long.
Most mid level people would be uncomfortable with this level of fakeness.
Its good to see i am not the only one
Some people believe that all of this is staged... And I believe that they are are right
Bruh... This is real!
I bet you don't even know the name of the aircraft, dummies!
@@thelonelyplant9429 AIRBUS A380? I mean, it's in the name of the plane.
Glad I'm not the only one.
*Devours three burgers*, "your main course now sir".
Harry Ng 😭😭😭... so much food
They're mini burgers though, could go through 10 of those and still be hungry
Harry Ng my thoughts exactly!! So much food!!
Burger sliders.....how American!
No you don't get not starting from baho soory for speling from asia
The Arrogant Lin Biao again !!!!
Camera man living the best silent life... 🤣🤣🤣🤣 he lowkey flying First Class🤔
nesu mhlanga im pretty sure he films himself or the flight attendant helps him film
@@johnathanlao2264 not this flight. Guy hired a professional videographer... it's on the description
@@michaelmkwanazi2247 I was wondering, but I don't see anything in the description. Thought it was his gf or something. In the shower with him and looks like they stayed on the seating area while he slept in the bed.
@@explicitDTP oops check his pinned chat reply. He added on there
@@michaelmkwanazi2247 ok gotcha, see it now, not sure if e has a gf or married, but sure he could get "her" in on this. Any woman would love it.
The Look On Sam face when he was hoping for that hot blond to serve him as butler and next thing he see is Handsome Indian dude with big smile, Priceless!!
I miss her she sadly had to leave 😢
Alexander Rowe leave where?
"Handsome indian dude..."LOL. Sure, that's what it was.
Ahaha i wish that only dudes will serve him. XDDD
😝😝
Normal People: I finally got this BMW for 20’000$!
Sam: I just bought an apartment in the sky for 20’000 for the next 9 hours!
@Jani Salo EXACTLY. He has surpassed critical mass in the social media world. He never pays a dime. None of this would happen without all the subscribers and all the likes. I wonder what he does for revenue though. It can be expensive globetrotting even with someone else paying for everything.
@@gendaminoru3195 He is a banker, he said it in many videos including a recent one when one of the flight crew asked him what he does for a living
He have sponcers
His net worth is only around 1m😆. Sponsored
BMW is King. 👌
What an insightful reviewer Mr. Chui is. Such prophetic lines:
It's a full mirror. I can see myself.
Look at the colors.
This is garlic.
This is honestly my worst nightmare, surrounded by people paid to smile and be overtly welcoming, I'd rather pay 2% of the price and be left the hell alone :P
i absolutely agree
Same here aha, all these smiles and weird interactions made me cringe.
Ah yes... the introvert way of life
Ben Harvey c
It's not forceful, if you prefer to be alone, they will leave you alone. You are pretty much their boss during the flight.
6:01
Just me who noticed the dude in the walkway skipping lol
He's just excited hahH
😂😂😂
Baxter XD
Y e s hes a whole vibe
The dude: sees sam
Also him happiness jumps
nobody
absolutely no one:
sam chui: you lost weight 😂😂
Jiya fucking savage 😂
That was disrespectful
Jiya exactly what I was saying lol who says that
@@alegueye10 In what way?
Tilted Gaming just awkward convo. What else could he have said?
I just watched your recent honda jet review, now that I'm here, I have traveled back in time to this video...glad I did, I've gained so much experience, yet so little..... I'm 23, one day I would like to travel residential....🥰🥰🙏
