- It was my first time flying American Airlines long haul International flight! I flew on American Airlines Flagship B777-300/ER from Hong Kong to Los Angeles. I was pleasantly surprised by the product offerings on American Airlines Business Class! I am very used to the high standards on Asian and Middle Eastern carriers but AA did not disappoint on my international flight.
On arrival at LAX, I checked out the AA flagship lounge and flagship dining.
Now I've finally flown the big 3 US carriers (Delta, United and American) international. I must say i am very impressed by all 3 carriers making huge improvement in terms of hard and soft products on their International flights (domestic still a different game and story), they've all came a long way. I was very used to the Asian and Middle Eastern standard but I really think the US carriers are capable of delivering great flight experiences. There are still lot of rooms to improve as always. I will try to do a comparison video in the near future based on my experience.
You should try Iraqi airways. London to Erbil.
You are right. A comparison video would be very nice. They have a very good product but the experience must also be at par. That's why a personal touch of each staff to their passengers has been a signature of most AEM markets.
If you had to answer now, which of the big 3's products do you like most?
British Airway next???
Ur best Sam . Thanks for all awsome videos. 👏👏👏👏
Thanks Mr Sam for acknowledging me and my passion for my work, Spot me at 2:27 of this video!!!😍😍😍 im truly a biggest fan of you Mr Sam!!!! Thanks alot!!!!
That bartender is you 😍😍
Yes the bartender is ME😍
loved your smile and your energy Umar!
ohitsROME thank you so much😁😁😁
@@shahzadumar2661 Hello from Asia!
I am a huge fan of your channel. You were the person who got me into aviation. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Love from Hong Kong.
Hello Sam, I always enjoy seeing you flight videos. Many thanks for posting them. They have helped with my healing after open heart surgery.
I really enjoy all your videos. Thanks so much for your hard work and making it all available to us on You Tube. One of the things I most enjoy is seeing how personable you are and how effectively you interact with people. Your kind and happy attitude seems to breed kindness and happiness in others, and all this provides you with much more cooperation from crews than most of us get. So many of the crew members seem to have a really great time with you aboard, and that makes your videos even better for the rest of us.
try flying economy with them you'll be surprised in a whole different way
peter woodward agree 100%
True, I did a report about thier economy class.
peter woodward lol. That comment just made my morning!
I totally get where you coming from. But in economy we should not expect more than what we've paid right?
@Sam AA's Economy Class is not cheap compared to other airlines. I believe that because they are the largest airlines in the world, their overhead costs are higher, thus higher priced tickets.
Great video as always, @Sam! I love how you’re going out of your comfort zone to try a bigger vierety of airlines, especially since many of your loyal subscribers are based in North America. :)
I hope to try Air Canada (going Canada probably after winter) and JetBlue soon as well!
Great video Sam! Love the fact you were able to sit down with the flagship exec chef! That’s a very unique interview and would be nice to feature more of those!
Nice review Sam and as a former AA Flight Attendant that still loves the airline, it’s great to see AA doing such a great job! The food when I flew for AA in 2000 was amazing! We would start with on Perignon Champaign severed with Caviar followed by an additional 4 courses and by far he best entree was the Chateaubriand cooked on the plane and carved for each individual passengers. AA Flagship Service was second to none. Happy Landings my friend!
I'm impressed! American has dramatically improved it's international Biz Class service. AA did a great job on it's fleet livery too. Thank you for another great video Sam. Thumbs up!
7:26 everything came in one 'chui' (tray) lol
love to watch your videos
It’s great to see you connecting with your HK heritage! Love the video as always, Sam.
Looks very nice - looking forward to try it, one day. The bedding looks exceptional. Thanks Sam!
I’m flying American business class on the same plane as you to Paris tomorrow! Thanks for the good timing and review!
Such an inspiration I work for AA as a cabin crew and I love your videos
Oh Sam. I’m a flight attendant for AA and this is my route ... I cried watching this as we have no idea when we will be flying again. I know we will fly HKG again and it will be amazing but my wings for now are checking out some places I’ve not flown in 30+ years around the domestic system. Thank you for your business and thank you for being an aviation lover. And thank you for this lovely reminder of what we have to look forward to.
What a great presentation to get from the LAX Flagship Chef. That burger sounds amazing
Looked like an awesome flight,glad you enjoyed yourself.I always fly AA whenever I can take care.
I always get hungry when I watch your videos! That food is amazing! Thanx for sharing!
Thanks for the upload Sam. Looked like a great flight. Would love to fly Business class one day.
Just flew AA a few days back and it was a good experience. Crew were friendly & helpful through the journey.
The best!
Natural explicit and American Airlines!
Thanks,
jb
The GE90'S looked so amazing during landing. Fantastic video Sam!
oh my sam! 820k subs! You're almost there!
Very very beautiful, the American airlines. Thanks sham.
Nice work again Sam,,,keep on FLYING,!,!!
Awesome video. I am truly an aviation geek and you bring such a warm narrative to these flights. Thank you. Next time your in Chicago I would truly enjoy meeting you.
This was an amazing video just WOW!!!
The quality of ambiance in American Airlines is very nice with integral modules having in built electronic appliances and the bon appetite provided on the flight seemed to be delicious. I really appreciate your such a wonderful blogs about airlines all around the world. Keep it up Mr.Sam and I am looking forward for your new updates.
Regards
I enjoy all your reviews and glad to see you do one on AA business class, I recommend you try AA first from London to Miami as sometime. I'd be interested to see your thoughts and also the Flagship fist class dinning experience in Miami.
Thanks for all your videos and reviews, becuase of them, I now try different airlines fist classes to enjoy the different experiences.
Love that “cafeteria style” food service. Yes, that was utter sarcasm. Still, the direct aisle access for all seats cannot be beat.
That for me was one of your best trip reports for a while. There was more information on the experience without the crew which I liked. I hope to be as successful as you some day.
I've done this flight in Business Class. Not a bad deal, you can use Cathay lounges, the service is good, the food is so-so but I really like the 1-2-1 reverse herring layout, I always sleep well.
Thank you so much and Hello from Alaska!
Another excellent experience Sam. I really love the camera shot of the plane engine as you're landing in LA.
amazing sam 🤗 keep them videos coming.
Great video Sam.......new career path with all the food reviews as well,......I hope you went to the gym after you went through customs!! Keep up the fantastic videos and I love it when you run into people who watch your channel and are looking for flights you have done!! Keep them coming!!!
I haven't flown AA in a long time Sam but after seeing your blog I'll definitely consider flying them again...🛫🌎
Sam: American Airlines should thank you. I used to fly American long before, but gave up till now because, of their seats and service. Your video has definitely changed my opinion. I will definitely try American again, for sure! Thank you for the video.
Shekar Chandrasekaran oh they did think him here keep in mind if things are paid for
Wow American airlines...nice video,i like it👍👍👍🛫
We enjoy your videos. You look so happy.
Great work Sam. Looking forward to seeing you hit 1M subscribers. Good luck Sam
Great Video Sam!
I think you are right, the on board supper isn’t that impressive at all but the pajamas and mattress are awesome.
The setting of the plane is very similar to Cathay and I think the bedding is the winner.
Thanks for your sharing
Loved the video, and went straight to book a flight to Hong kong
I fly American Airlines a lot and its true they do not like filming very much. I also have a few friends that are flight attendants on Delta and United and they do not like filming either. I really think its a USA thing. But I have had some American Airlines flight attendants that think its really cool and have gone out of there way to help me film and even point out places of interests on landings at places like London Heathrow. The flight attendants on American are usually way more cool with me filming and taking pictures on my flights to Asia I've noticed.
4J is the best seat on the AA 77W. Love the mini business class cabin and the restroom behind it is huge!!
Great video Sam.
Incredible video Sam very nice I hope you enjoy it
Hey Sam, yet another great video!
Suggestion: film the whole take off
thanks :D
I admit that you're my favorite UA-camr. Great work!
thank you :)
Ashabul Yamin Bin Syarbini Hi...
Hahah american flashy burger ! Sam you rock 😂😂😂😂
Soon will be 1 millions subs. Congrats sam ! Times flies so fast
Really very good service American airlines.
You have so much money and it's amazing! 😀😀😀
One of the best flight reviews channel...good luck Sam..
Very classy for the chef to come out and explain everything
AA, and most major airlines, know about Sam and rolled out the Red Carpet for him. It's great marketing for them and it costs them nothing.
They realize who Sam is and his presence in airline flight reviews and commentary. I doubt if you were to fly First Class, you would even glimpse the chef.
It's not 'Class'; it's 'Kiss Ass'. Nothing wrong with that on AA's part as it's all about putting a good light on your product. I'm wondering how receptive the cabin crew to being filmed be on Sam's next flight. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
We've seen another outstanding video from Sam!
I'm going to fly from DFW-HKG in about a month, Dec 2018, in the same class and same type of aircraft. So, excited!
Sam, I flew American business class in a 777 to Shanghai from US not to long ago and it was slightly different. They didn’t do the single tray meal for the dinner and instead had a regular service and also no pjs. Still was a great experience. I did look for a video of yours about it when I was trying to decide if I should go business or not.
3.18 yum lol that’s so nice and funny
I haven't flown AA for years, but remember that their desserts, cookies and hot chocolate were all superb - service on AA was also generally great!
WOW ! surprisingly, you speak Cantonese and Mandarin ( like me ) , now I really feel we’re very close ,ha ha 😂🤣 , from N J , thank you Sam ,Mr. Chui 🙏🙏👏👏
Another awesome video Sam👍✈️
Good review. Thanks.
I had the pleasure of flying their Flagship First earlier this year from Miami to London, even as it was tied to a long delay, it was an awesome experience. Also that Flagship burger is amazing :)
Great video Sam. Flown AA a number of times in J to HKG. We fly out of ORD and only fly CX to Asia.
Why do people dislike American? It’s just like every other airline to be honest. I’ve flown with them my entire life and they have never disappointed me.
Ikr
The way I see it is that for the money you pay, you can get more value and much better quality service with other legacy carriers i.e. gulf and asian carriers.
BRAINYT yes and the same thing for United
Exact same my dad flys for them and I’ve flown with them my whole life never been disappointed
People are followers plain and simple. Most people don't even fly enough to have an educated response on the matter.
It’s about time US carriers did some major improvements. I was particularly impressed that American actually chose a mattress company to do their bedding; such a nice touch!
The videos just get better and better!
Huge fan of you Sam ✈️
I really love this video :D
Hey Sam! there was just a split second in this video that I saw a ten-year-old Sam Chui hoeing into in a Hong Kong egg tart, with that look on you face that said: I really shouldn't be eating that many......but I a going anyway because I just love my egg tart. It was funny and made me smile, but above all, was very natural and showed a side of you that is rarely seen. There is a boy in all us, so I think you should show more of it...in my opinion. Al the best for the future.
Great video. Please make a video on All Nippon Airways. I want to take a look at this airline also.
I didn't expect it to be so good :)
The best quality as usual.
Very nice...Fly safe always...
Dude! I need to get a name logo style like that!! Keep up the reviews!!
"Lazy people like me..its great" I felt this 😂
Great video !
SO BEAUTIFUL LOOKING OKAY YO I LOVE IT THANK YOU SIR ❤
Starting music is breathe by johan borgesson 😃

AMANDA Bo 💘 💘 💘 💘
Letssss goooo i was waiting this video for so long
Really love this video but,do more garuda flight report sam.. good job😁
Took my first 777 flight from Miami to London in Oct 2019. American Airlines but I was in economy. Let me just say, I was very pleased with the comfort and service in coach. Would love to experience business.
Love American!
As always a great vlog Sam
omg stop it, each time i see your videos i get thirsty and want to eat!!! YUMMYYY keep up the great content!
Great video Sam
Yes love for you!!!
👍😊The background music of the video was great! The edit format was awesome too😊Are u doing all this yourself ？ 👍☺️Good work Sam👍
this is amazing
Hi Sam in Hong Kong from New Zealand the approach into HKG is amazing epically with the new bridge going to Macau. Great review as always
Believe it or not, the approach into Hong Kong was even more amazing before they shut down kai tak in 1998
I love the new American - I hope they continue their positive growth and development! You should try their Transcon first class - great experience! Sam, any tips for cheap business class tickets internationally?
Great video Sam, 👍 and could you mind to tell me what kind of mic you use in the cabin. Thanks
@10:21 - Sam meeting another Sam 😄 but I find the younger Sam cute with the pillow pressed from his back 😋
I think they must have given the “express” meal service to you because you had fallen asleep. I’ve always had them bring the food out with the salad first and entree later. I agree that their food is decent but not great.
jajaja Sam Forever Gordito.. me dio antojos de probar toda la comida de este episodio.. Que sigan los episodios.. big Fan here from Venezuela. Translate people dont be lazy :-D
I know I'm a bit late to comment, but very nice trip report! I've flown with AA from JFK to MXP, and then from MXP to MIA, and I've had good experiences on both legs of the trip (minus the Boeing 767 aircraft they used on the MXP-MIA leg). Just like how Simply Aviation put it, honestly, whether an airline is good or bad is not dependent on what an airline offers you, but whether one's expectations are met depending on the reputation of the airline. So I don't think people should hate on American Airlines if you get what you paid for. Heck, I'd rather fly with American than any airline from mainland China, I'd say. Keep up the good work, Sam!
Great video
Enjoy San! Come one day to Brazil. There are some brazilian companies you should know.
It is an amazing country.
Lol Sam... with the amount of food you had, you should have walked to the boarding hall ;)
