      Dan wasn’t as great of a reviewer back in 2018 when he made that first video. In the last few years, he has really stepped up his videography and editing and also acts more professional. Yes, he can still be critical about some things, but he also does give proper credit where it’s due.

    I just stepped out of the Etihad A380 First Class Apartments in London for my upcoming report - and I have a feeling that, summing up all details and parts of it (except for the lounge), this is now the best first class in the world. Comparing with the competition in the Arab Peninsula, and also Singapore Airlines First Class Suites and Cathay First Class. They simply offer it all..... (however, not the excellent wines that only Emirates has)

    Wow, I've never felt poorer in my life. First time I ever had heated nuts was on a United domestic flight in the US and it was amazing! I did win an upgrade to business with Air Canada returning from Buenos Aires (12hrs to Montreal), but I was too sick to really enjoy it. Given my stomach issues from traveling to a new country, it surely was a better experience than the premium economy seat I originally booked. Thanks for the content, Dan. I would LOVE to have a flight like that for a good 12hr trip.

    hay Dan, pro tip: to remove the flicker of the lights in your videos, like when recording the lounge, you can (should) switch the recording from 50 to 60 fps or vice-versa, basically switching the video framerate from PAL (Europe and most of the world) to NTSC (America and Japan, mostly).

    Some people actually prefer hard sleeping surfaces, so the bed would probably appeal to many.
    That suite is impressive, and almost a crime to only deploy it on a 6 hour flight.

    Had the honor of the Appartement on a trip SYD-AUH-CDG before the pandemic, best experience ever, I slept 7 hours! especially on a really long leg from about 12-13hours. I don’t understand why nowadays the A380 from etihad is only operated from LHR-AUH. Way too short…

    I always feel like the lounge/mini bar is wasted on Business/First class. Why not make it available to premium economy and economy as they would most definitely be looking to get up and stretch their legs. Why would you get up from your comfy, private space to go "hang out" in a lounge?

So I went to the oversized baggage at the arrivals hall, it seemed that there was about 5 across the whole hall. It then came off the regular baggage carrousel. We where never told.

    Tbh the 2 extra seats dont really make sense if those people have to be in first class too. Wouldnt it be cooler if you could invite your friends from business or economy to your apartment. They could require them to go back to their seats for the meals and only order drinks that are included in their tickets. I dont see how that would have any downsides for etihad
