I flew in ANA's new First Class onboard the Boeing 777, nicknamed "The Suite", en route from Tokyo to New York. This would be my first time trying ANA's majestic Japanese dining experience, and it was certainly well worth the wait.
In addition, I also got to sample a few glasses of $1,000/bottle Hibiki 21 and passed the time by watching some movies on the crisp 42-inch entertainment monitor.
ANA New First Class is certainly one of the best ways to fly to and from Japan, and I can't wait for my next flight onboard - perhaps together with a long-awaited visit to Japan after they reopen their borders.
Booked with: 60,000 Virgin Atlantic Flying Club miles + $150

Watching this and knowing that I will get to fly with those first class some day
Super cool de te voir bien profiter. Manger avec délice et bien boire. This is life and enjoy it👍👍
When you fell asleep at the beginning of the trip you had me worried that you were going to miss a meal and leave us with half a review. In the end though, with sheer determination, you came through with "flying" colors!😅.
You know I can't let y'all down!! 🍱
SAME LOL
It sounds like on-demand service let him get that rest.
Wow...ANA is prob the most impressive 1st class food, service & suite combo I've seen. Jesus...that's pretty bonkers.
Excellent trip review with comprehensive coverage. You will never be disappointed travelling with Japanese airlines in general.
They now have the best first class product in my opinion. The food was excellent as always; you couldn't get hungry on an ANA flight. The Suite was just brilliant. Liked and subscribed
This video is superb. Excellent articulation, actual self-awareness of the whole product and simply shot. Great stuff
Thanks so much
This first class experience with ANA seems amazing. Thanks for sharing your experience Ricky
My pleasure
wow seeing that much food and drinks I would pass out by the time they land lol
Now that’s a first class I love ❤
That's incredible. 13 Hours from Tokyo to NY. That is fast! (Can't imagine doing a 12 hour work shift, driving home and taking a shower. 13 hours)
Ricky, I have to say its such a relief watching your reviews (i've been bingeing the last 2 hours). The food is brilliant. The photography the same, and I am super relieved that you are not stuffing your face with the largest possible bite and letting us hear every chomp, slurp, sip, and whateverelse. I've subscribed because of this.
It’s not often that I watch a full trip report at 23:45, but this report was fantastic and incredibly enjoyable. I have never travelled overseas, but this video made it feel as if I were. Subscribed with notifications on. Excited for new trip reports as well as reports not only on first and business class.
Cheers - many more vids to come!
@@_Ricky Looking forward to it!
yes, probably the best flying video i've seen. usually stop watching after a few minutes but not for this one
Its the smile on your face for me :) You were legit super excited and I am happy you finally made it to Japan
Good job,love the first class cabin
Thank you for sharing your flight..
I do like the sliding panel doors to your suite seat!!
Great travelling with you .. ANA First Class, definitely on my ‘to enjoy’ list ..
Great video and editing, thanks for the detailed review.
You’re my favorite airplane experience reviewer.
Really loved this video man! I was shocked when I realized your first video was half a year ago
Great review, excited to fly this product next year, first time in first class!
Awesome, enjoy every moment of it!
One of the best Airlines in the world 🇯🇵🌟ANA
Looks fantastic. I think what differentiates the Japan experience is the incredibly tasty and refined food, quality of service, and of course the washlet toilets! I live in Germany now, so tend to use Emirates to fly to Japan (rather than split the points). But sometimes I might try ANA just to get the magical Japan experience!
That suite looks absolutely phenomenal 😍 Great review and have subbed!
That screen is insane!
You are my new favourite travel vlogger. Having watched a few videos already, wow, super impressed…. Perfect French, Japanese etc
I really like flight reviews and this is the first time I have seen your channel. Really good content.
New favorite travel UA-camr!
Looking forward to experiencing the new cabin on some London-Haneda-London flights when I return to London in the fall!
The foood Hayyyyzzz
Thank you ANA always very neat airplane nice food and very kindly staff godbless
Excellent first class sear as well as awesome guy in the frame. Subscription confirmed without a doubt
Wow thank you!
Awesome review. Taking my son to Japan late this spring. Using miles. Hoping to take ANA over United. Possibly First
Wow the food alone is 👏
dreaming of a flight like this.
great review. totally sold. Taking my daughter we love everything about japan and if course the amazing food. so excited to return to japan
Beautiful premium class product! ANA is on my bucket list. I put in for their status match, hope I get it.

I've watched so many reviews where the reviewer doesn't even mention the alcoholic drinks. Thank you for showing everyone how its done!
Wow! Amazing review, I really like the way you showed everything!
bro is literally better than sam chui. very respectful to the crew (not shoving the camera in their face) and this wasn't just one big advertisement. amazing and authentic, also very professional. your videos will hit the youtube algorithm soon enough. videos are top tier.
Why do you need to use the word literally, it adds nothing to your comment.
I really enjoy watching your plane review video. keep it up
amazing!
Thanks for sharing
Nice flight
Signed up for amex last week. Definitely going to take advantage.
Great content! You’ve got a new fan!
I really liked that you didn't include lengthy and boaring take off clip which for some reason 99% of travel youtubers do.
I screamed when I saw the passengers feet in the seat next to you 😅
Thanks for sharing this experience, Ricky! My parents are starting to get into award travel and this is a great video to share with them.
Haha I know I was like quick close the door 😂😂
@@_Ricky 🤣🤣
Slick .. slick vid
Hal's wife here..Praying for your safety in New York City. Being Asian, I haven't seen my son since Dec 2019 first because of covid and then because of the Asian Non-Preference. Hope you have fun, safe travels! God bless!
Bro you sound just like paolo from tokyo
Amazing. Thanks!
How far in advance did you have to book this ticket?
1:15 wow indeed 🦵🏼
fantastic flight review mate
That turbulance thoughhh.... LOL
Great review Rick i subscribed !
Thank you for this vlog. Fly safe. 2022.
Nice flight report. Fasten the seat belt even when you sleep.
Good tip!
Liked this one. :-)
The cosmetic kit is made by Shiseido "The Ginza" line. Prior to the Pandemic, they were full sized. Now, it looks like they are not.
Well done👍🏽
I have a couple reviews of ANA The Room product on my channel. But it's good to see the Suite review. Great job!
Where did you put all that food? You must have a tremendous metabolism.
Great review, you should have more subscribers!
Wow! I have flown by QSuites, but ANA’s “Room” is even better. Then again its not fair to compare business class with first class.
The food and service seem to be eclectic.
I have a question though, how much of the Hibici 21 could you finish? 😁
"THE Room" that you're talking about it ANA's Business class on their 777s
"THE Suite" which is featured on this video is their First class
@@hibikismusic3103 That's why I compared the "Room" with "QSuites", because both are business class - apples to apples.
@@KAMU13 Ok, but then why do you mention first class in your comment? Is that just referring to this video? (I'm just a bit confused)
Yes Ana ✈️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The rice on ANA is the best too! Loved this video!
NICE! Still waiting for Japan to open to non-tour group tourists. And I don't know how you stay so thin while eating so much lol!
Same 😭
Any tips on finding the availability?
Sidetrack, your voice is exactly like Paolo in Tokyo 0-0
Really enjoyed the video, and the food look outstanding. I just flew from Manila to Korea and then from Korea to Dallas via Korean Airlines, Did the Prestige Class and they sure feed you alot of food as well, not as good as ANA but I was still impressed.
Can you do .....video on Travel must have items... bags, clothing... etc?
Awesome ✈✈✈
60k points for a 20k ticket is an incredible value.
all travel tubers are all lushes lol
Great Job 👍 Travel 🇺🇸 Detroit Professional Class Tokyo to NYC
Man there is no way I could have eaten that much food. It all looked so good that I might try 😂😂😂.
You at least gotta try 😆
When you said MR points through Amex is how you can earn Virgin Atlantic points I was thinking.... and Chase, Capital One, and Citi too! Then I realized you're The Prince of Travel... so you're talking about in Canada... Love your review and your other channel. I really think you give very good detailed info!
Sweet
This is honestly one of the best tastefully designed luxury first class I have ever seen . Compared to the predictable emirates first class , ANA def blows it out of the park ! Emirates first class seems incredibly distasteful and tacky - the epitome of money can’t buy taste ….. 😹
Emirates amenity kit looks better.
It's not distasteful or tacky imo, but it is flashy, extra, in your face and extravagant. It depends on what kind of traveler you are.
@@traffiquejamm1780 "flashy, extra, in your face" is a pretty good definition of "tacky."
@@ricobarth Of course not applying to all things though. sequins most of the time are cheap and tacky, Swarovski crystals are expensive and they look amazing. Emirates first class to me definitely caters to the "new money" audience where they think that famous designer name brand clothes are the epitome of fashion and style. And "old money" individuals can just have a flight on their private jet. At least Emirates first class product isn't built poorly, it looks expensive and it's of high quality...that's not tacky to me. (Again imo)
@@ricobarth Not Necessarily. Tacky means of poor taste and quality. Emirates is a rich company and I doubt they would have poor quality materials and a lousy build job on their planes considering their reputation. And as for taste, it's based on how you want to feel during travel ig.
Does first class lounge share with business class?
Hibiki is not included? Separate paid? I need to know these before going lol
I gotta ask how you found the award availability, I keep looking and keep struggling to find any first class options for a round trip there, awesome video by the way 👏
It wasn't all too difficult in the leadup to May 2022 since Japan is still largely closed for tourism. But looking deeper into 2023 it's getting more difficult. Best to look at the very end of the schedule (June 2023 at this rate) and see if you can find a one-way rather than a round-trip (take a different flight in the other direction)
@@_Ricky Awesome I’ll try that, thanks for the advice
They’re*
Great production quality! I'm flying in J "The Room" HNDLAX next week but now regretting that I don't have amex points to transfer to VS to redeem the way you did for F =P
Holy crap you ate the whole time lmao
Are there PJ good for small person?
Some high class travel vloggers can come off as pretentious douchebags, but you don't. Thanks for keeping it real.
Is it just the wide angle lens or is that closet not big enough for a suit jacket?
really good review, enjoyed. I just flew "the Room" last month to tokyo. I had the "suite" reserved but it got cancelled because they changed from 777 to 787 but then they changed back so I was in business class. I was bummed that I couldn't fly F but the room was good.
You got a refund right ?
How do you book first class with only 60K points? It’s 150K no?
On second thoughts it’s probably just one way + transfer bonus.
God damnit dude you can eat.. Unfortunately for me whenever I am on a plane I am never that much hungry.. 😂
It’s making me want to be Rich because I really want to go on first class but I want business class a nice first class is just so ginormous
How would you compare that flight with the JAL first??
Is there a certain timeframe that these award are opened up on Virgin? I'm looking to book for next year, but it seems like there is no availability that far out.
did you get to keep the whole Hibiki bottle?
anyone know if air pods will connect to that large screen ? i hate using provided over the ear headphones
Where on earth are you seeing $20,000 one way? It's usually about that return.
Damn man u so lucky.
Did you get the entire Hibiki 21 bottle?
