    Welcome to the Emirates First Class video!
    It is my favorite First Class cabin as the product offered is top tier, the money you pay is fair and the crew are the most fun while professional.
    Come and join me on this 5th freedom flight between Bangkok and Hong Kong and see for yourself just how much Emirates pampers you on a very short flight. You’ll spend only around 3 hours on board from boarding to disembarking.
    Needless to say I did my best to make the most out of it and here is the result. I hope you like it!
    A big thanks to the great crew I had on this day as they were eager to show me everything and ensuring I was having a great time with the very limited time they had while serving 13 other passengers.
    Enjoy!
    Today we are showcasing you the following flight:
    From: Bangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport, Thailand
    To: Hong Kong International Airport, Hong Kong
    Flight Number: EK 384
    Aircraft Type: Airbus A380
    Registration: A6-EDV
    Flight Time: 02:17

    Have a nice one!
    You can also leave a Super Like as a tip for my work. I’ll invest it all on future trips.

    Your content is just consistently out of this world amazing!! Also, I know that many consider Qatar Airways to be a good airline, but there is just something super special about EK to me. The only airline that I believe could have equaled or even bettered EK, was Garuda when they offered First Class on their flights from Jakarta to Amsterdam!! That was truly incredible! In today's environment, however, no airline can touch Emirates' First Class service.

      Hey Dr, thanks! Keep in mind this is just a short flight. Expect far more on your flight from MAN. Make sure to leave some space in the stomach so you can try a bit of everything, specially the caviar. I also recommend asking for the edamame as a snack from the “movie snack” menu.
      You’ll get more toiletries then I did, including the sleeping suit.

    The further back you are on a plane the noisy it generally is because of the planes engines. The further front you are the quieter it is hence why premium classes are more towards the front of the aircraft. It is nice to be able to see the wings when in flight but personally I prefer being in peace and just hearing the air as the plane whisks through the sky. Nice video. 👍

I'm excited but abit apprehensive as its the Boeing 777 and I understand that they contain slightly dated business and First class products. Nevertheless, I'm going to enjoy it especially after watching how well you were fed .

    • @TheLayoverAviation

      It’s sometimes dated for their own product, depending on the aircraft registration you’ll know what to expect. But compared to other products out there even the older FC is stunning!

Personally in huge distance from anyone else! The professionalism is beyond anyone I have come across! Alex, you have reached new highs once again my friend!! NO ONE comes near Emirates First and boy did you make the most of your 2h30min! It puts QR in the shadow and hope they realize (or not) haha.

      Flip, you made my day! And for such nice things coming from an ex-KLM pilot make the little boy in me come out.
      KLM pilots gave me the best memories when I was a kid, and my passion for aviation largely came from them. I was asked if I wished to take off & land in the cockpit many times on usual shuttles between Amsterdam & Barcelona. There I would go ask many questions and learn about all sorts of things, from reverse thrust usage to the B737’s iconic engines.
      I mostly flew on B737-300/400’s, but even the B737-800/900 (back then very new) and once on the B767-300ER. I’ll never forget!
      Thinking out loud.. But thanks for the great comments! You do deserve that First Class upgrade, it should be quite a lot of Skywards miles though, I hope you’ve got enough laying around! I think it should be close to 6 digits what you need!
      Have a great one and thanks for writing! Love from Dubai

    After your last first class flight on Qatar, this is like night and day, the only thing "first class" about that flight was the price. The Emirates service both on the ground and the in the air is truly first class, they realise it's not just about the seat, but the experience. That mezze would have done me for the entire flight, I was feeling full just looking at it, and the wine selection ... yum 🥂 Did you manage to throw a new "first class throw rug" into your carry-on? 😂 Wonderful review.

      First Class will hang out. It works and it is full. All my recent flights in First have all been full.
      No matter how good Business Class becomes, a Qsuite isn’t First Class. And some people are willing to pay for the extra’s in First. You can see how Lufthansa recently updated their First Class to something spectacular.
      It will continue to exist!

    Great report, this time a extra great report.🙂 Q. How long does it take to clean and cater the plane after it lands?

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  11 місяців тому +1

      Thanks a lot!! How long it takes depends on the airline and aircraft, and the men power they’re willing to pay for. You’ll notice how most EK A380’s are turned around in 2 hours or so. I would say 20 minutes to disembark, 45 to board, the rest for the ground duties such as cleaning and catering.
      It all depends!

  • @superlogistics1

    EK First class on this route is a bargain as they charge between 1000usd to 1300 usd pending if you depart from BKK or HKG. I’ve done it a few times myself mostly in business as their flight back to BKK leaves around 2130LT so I can just head to the airport straight from work.
    Another reason why the price is relatively low because pre-Covid numerous airlines fly this route, mainly CI, ET, RJ, MS along with CX TG and HX operating numerous flights. Some of those business class seats sell for 2000hkd round trip which is roughly 200-300 USD! Why fly economy when you can pay a little bit more for the premium 😂

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  11 місяців тому +1

      Always a pleasure Andrew! Yes, that is correct, no caviar on flights under 4-5 hours. But I get it, it does take time to plate and also keep in mind that it is a huge logistical issue to get that much of caviar moving on 100’s of daily flights.
      Unlimited caviar on long flights, yes! The portion they serve by default is a double.
      I only order it once per flight, but if I want to go nuts I might ask if they can throw a scoop on my omelette in the morning 😉

    Been flying since i was born. But things changed in 2017 when i was flying from Adelaide to Dubai late evening in Emirates. The entire flight was turbulent, the pilot did not turn off the seat belt sign for the entire 14 hrs nearly....i dont know what plane that was ... but it just instilled a fear in me so bad that every flight i took after that i jst wasnt able to get rid of the fear of turbulence and crashing... 😢😢😢.... to the point that ive stopped flying ... missed out on so many great holidays i couldve had...
    I admire all your videos and one day dream of being able to fly as peacefully as i see you flying and enjoying the flight...
    I wish i had never flown in 2017.... :(
    Have u had turbulent flight experiences? Did it create fear in you?

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  11 місяців тому +1

      Maybe he forgot to turn off the seatbelt sign? 14 hours long on is excessive. Maybe just out of caution..
      So that flight from Adelaide crosses the equator and many jet-streams, and at certain periods of the year it can get very windy and bumpy indeed. It just happens. But I can assure you that no aircraft has ever had an accident because of turbulence! Taking an Uber or bus is 1000 times more dangerous!
      And no, I’ve never ever had fear on planes! I fully trust the process. And yes, I’ve had very bad turbulence and even some mechanical problems. But it’s multi million dollar machines with excellent professionals working on them.
      I hope you get to enjoy aviation again!
