    I've flown AA business class several times LAX-LHR on the B777 and loved it.

    You always have the smoothest take off rolls. Even when the cough guy was shaking the windows.

    Hi Scott,
    You have an Awesome style in your video’s, really love it! Enjoyed this video very much :)
    AA have a great business product on their 777-300. Looks like you had a great flight. The food all looks very delicious!
    Thanks again

      Thanks Brendan! I’m very glad you’ve been enjoying so many of my videos lately. They are very difficult to make, so I’m glad that somebody is watching them. Haha!

  • @RobMiami787

    Yes another great video Your food panning techniques are fantastic!!
    Not the biggest fan of the background music though.
    The 773 is a beast!

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  7 років тому

      Thanks man! Yeah, I'd rather eliminate the music altogether, but it makes the videos a lot more bland IMHO. It's hard to find music that everyone likes! Anyway, this was a really great flight - much better than I was expecting...

    Very nice!! Business and First Class is the way to go!!

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  7 років тому

      Thanks! I agree - I would have loved to try their first class product on this flight though. Next time. :-)

    Excellent report. Great format, filming and touches of humour. I do like the AA business class. I also have a few trip reports and always good to hear from other UA-camrs :-)

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  7 років тому

      Thanks! Nobody ever said that flying had to be serious. Haha! Anyway, you've got some interesting videos as well...even bus reviews! I haven't ventured into bus reviews yet, but I see how fun that might be.

      Thanks! Yeah, those sunrises on eastbound transpacific flights are always amazing!!

  • @21xd09

    The 777 is a BEAST!!! Looks like the cabin needs an upgrade soon however... But overall nice video! The food looks good!

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  7 років тому +2

      Yeah, it was such a good flight with great food and great crew. The cabin was actually in pretty good shape though, and those business class seats are really nice. A lot better than the old ones, that’s for sure!

  • @johns4651
    @johns4651 7 років тому +1

    Fantastic video. I like the AA seating.

    • @sanspotter

      Thanks John! Yes, pretty good actually. Slept like a baby all the way home...

      Haha! I hardly ever get the opportunity to eat it, so...when the opportunity presents itself... 😆

  • @MichaelBSteeleAviation
    @MichaelBSteeleAviation 6 років тому +2

    8:56 is simply gorgeous!! The view of the engine and the wing from 8J looks great. I always pick 4J because I love the mini cabin. I'm going to try 8J next time a fly.

  • @coolbreeze253
    @coolbreeze253 6 років тому

    Have flown the Pacific on CX but just tried AA. Yeah, the seats are the same and things were fine, but I still preferred the catering and service on CX.

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  6 років тому +1

      Definitely! Given the choice between AA or CX, I’d take CX every time!

    • @sanspotter

      One of the smoothest I’ve ever experienced, that’s for sure!

  • @technewsfortechnoobs
    @technewsfortechnoobs 4 роки тому

    Jeez....business class is no joke now! Have you done the same flight on Cathay Pacific? I heard they are good as well...but I have no basis of comparison.

  • @dcain4304
    @dcain4304 5 років тому

    Amazing how Tommy Tuberculosis can spoil a flight. Last flew Biz to Portugal on AA... way different experience. The FAs were super rude, worse than United. Looking forward to my DFW HKG 77W flight after your video.

  • @ozarkaviation
    @ozarkaviation 5 років тому

    Did the flight crew have any problem with recording in-flight? I've read about AA threatening to kick passengers off if they started taking photographs, especially in economy. I'm thinking about flying AA this summer as it will be my first time on the Dreamliner and I really want to get a trip report of it.

  • @lrg8734
    @lrg8734 6 років тому

    Looks like AA offers good service on the HKG-LAX route.

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  6 років тому

      They really do - I wasn’t expecting it to be so good actually.

    Are the business class and first class bathrooms the same(look wise)?

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  5 років тому

      I can’t quite remember actually - I used both, but I do remember the first class bathroom being really nice.

  • @countalucard4226
    @countalucard4226 6 років тому

    If you found someone mistakenly sat in your seat and opened all the packages, put on the slippers and the headphone, blankets, pillow set.al. what would you do?

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  6 років тому +2

      It depends if he licked the window or not...

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  7 років тому

      Thanks! I don't use any fancy equipment to make these videos - just an iPhone 6S and a GoPro Hero 5.

    Had to check this out because I've seen other videos where they are told they're not allowed to film getting on an American Airlines flight. Very stupid rule I think when none of the other airlines care. You haven't had any issues with American Airlines and filming?

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  5 років тому

      Luckily I haven’t had any issues filming on American Airlines - although I don’t fly them very often, and this was the only video that I think I’ve done on this airline. 🤔 I think. 🤔 I’m starting to lose track! 👴🏻💭❌😂

    Nice video! Just wondering aren’t the business class and first class bathrooms the same? Thx

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  6 років тому +1

      They were different - the one between the first and biz cabin was really nice, but the one behind biz wasn’t anything special. Perhaps that was just the economy lavatory?

  • @realcanadianrailfan110
    @realcanadianrailfan110 6 років тому

    How are you able to fly around the world in first and biz class?

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  6 років тому

      Using miles and points mostly - otherwise, all my trips are based are the best deals I can find.

    • @realcanadianrailfan110
      @realcanadianrailfan110 6 років тому

      I'm also assuming UA-cam view revenue buys the tickets? I guess my question should have been phrased 'how do you afford to fly around the world in first and biz class?' I assume you have a career as well as this? Sorry, I'm new to videos of people making videos of them travelling around the globe on airlines.

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  6 років тому +1

      I’m still a very small UA-camr, so I’m hardly earning any money from these videos. I did have a well paying corporate job for a long time, but I left it in May and am now focusing on freelance illustration work and the SANspotter brand (blog and UA-cam channel). I’m slowly making progress, and my ultimate goal is to quit the freelance work entirely and have SANspotter as my primary source of income. It’s hard work, but it’ll be worth it in the end!

    Is Hong Kong as fun of a city to go to as it seems?

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  7 років тому

      Absolutely! Hong Kong is my favorite city in the world by far - so much energy and culture there. Go if you can!

      I believe they do - I’m not sure how consistent they are with that, it they did offer them on this flight.

    MISSED THE NARRATION AND INFORMATION! More fun and I get more out of video when you talk. Wish I could zoom in more. Hard to pause and read the menu and choices.
    Keep it up though.
    I still do not like AA AT ALL!!!!

  • @tonyo7324
    @tonyo7324 5 років тому

    Did you hear the gnarly cough all night? There's always a continuous cough, crying kids or someone kicking the back or side of your seat even in Business Class all the time. Could not understand this people.

  • @ducheau100
    @ducheau100 5 років тому +1

    7:18 I hate the ugly, clunky drink cart. I only like a cart when there is selection of appetizers or desserts. Otherwise it does not belong in the business or first class cabin. Come on American

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  5 років тому

      Yeah this flight was from several years ago so I’m not sure if they still do that. Otherwise it was a great flight. 👍🏻
