I'm far from rich, but had the opportunity to fly Business Class with my wife to Europe with Etihad on Virgin points. I asked how much it would cost to upgrade to First, and was told it would be $800 each. An unbelievable bargain! Every bit as good as this report, except that I skipped the champagne and had many glasses of the Premier Grand Cru Bordeaux.
Superb videography. Most UA-camrs do not get this right. No shaky, sudden turns to make me nauseas. Excellent editing and especially the music! What a treat this video was to watch!
Ethiopian Airlines almost killed me and my three friends in the 90's. we were traveling from Kenya to Cairo, Egypt and had to stop in AD, Ethiopia for the connection. our travel agent didn't tell us there was unrest (revolution) in Ethiopia. Not only were we almost arrested at the airport because we paid for a drink with USD ( we just didn't know) but then in flight to Egypt the back door of the plane cracked open and there was slight pressure loss. The flight attendants stuffed towels in the cracks and said "don't worry" My friends and I ordered drinks and prayed for all on board including the chickens and various fruits and vegetables in the cabin. NO JOKE, TRUE STORY. I should write a book! Seems like they got their airline up to today's standards!
One time I was sitting in economy on an old plane and water started leaking out from above the window onto my lap. That will be the closest I ever get to getting a "shower" on a plane.
Hi Eddie, I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your video capturing the grace and style of what a luxury flight entails. You film it in such a way that it's not about you. . . but rather the experience. Well done. Darryl
Awesome video! I love the way you share each detail so it feels like I'm right there! That coupled with the relaxing music and I feel refreshed and ready for my adventure after touching down! But alas I am at home and my dog is looking at me questioningly lol! Thanks for my mini vacation - I subbed and look forward to many more!
It's so tragic what's happening to the aviation/travel industry, but COVID19 will be a temporary thing and in time we'll have this virus sorted. There'll be a time when we'll be up in the skies again :)
I fly all the time domestic US for my work and I'm thrilled when I get a first class upgrade which here means I get leg room and a wider seat. Yeah free alcohol and meal but really just give me some more leg room and I'm happy. This is the result of a Middle-East airline funded by oil and the oppression of women. Yeah luxurious but also obscene. When he lands he is in a country where you don't see any part of a woman but her eyes we are so offensive.
A quick google search would show you that the UAE has a modest dress code compared to other middle eastern countries. Local women do not have to cover their face and they are extremely tolerant of foreign women dressing the way they want. Some women even wear bikinis. In fact lately, foreign women have been getting into trouble for not respecting the dress code. Not with men but with the local women. These women do not need rescuing. This is their culture. Take your SJW nonsense somewhere else.
Here in my part of Texas, I can get 5 packages of ramen for $1.00 and I saute some onions, carrots and celery to add too it for a pretty nice and filling meal. LOL,...I'm a gourmet chef!
This is the best First/Business class airline review I hve ever seen. I didn't want it to end. I will book an Etihad Apartment within the next year based on this. Incredible job, Eddie. I'm a fan.
fly in economy with a company that has a frequent flier or air miles program! then if you save up your miles you can use them to pay fully or partially for a flight in business or first.
nah..I am a poor art student, and since I am petite economy is okay for me. Flyed from Kristiansand to Tokyo. with different airlines. The best economy was definitely airfrance. It wasn't that bad. 😂
This was the longest video about a flight report I've ever seen on UA-cam. But I must say that it's duration worths, cause Etihad is simply AWESOME. You thanked Etihad for the trip, and I'm thanking you for capturing and sharing your flight with us! You, sir, got a new subscriber to your channel. Cheers, bud!
Your comments are appreciated Alex. It's hard to condense the experience as there's a lot to show. Please check out my latest Singapore First class video :)
This is probably one of the BEST in-flight experience videos I have EVER seen!! You did a magnificent job creating, captioning, describing, shooting, and editing this entire video. Thank you for the time and effort you put into making this video for the benefit of others.
Thank you for watching and leaving such feedback. I'm reviewing the Emirates A380 First Class product soon. Hope you can compare it to the Etihad one and see which you think is better :)
Absolutely amazing! Your filming and editing style is so calming and makes you feel like you're really there :) Thank you for showing me something I know I'll probably never see, but can enjoy vicariously through this video :D
Thank you Eddie for such a great vlog. If I ever won the lottery, this would be on my bucket list. I appreciate you showing us the amenities, the food, everything!
This looks amazing, so luxurious, I'd never be able to afford to travel like this even if I saved up a year's worth of wages, great to see though. Thanks for uploading your video.
@@eddiekhoo2046 And when they fed you gourmet food like lobster thermador. And when they let the kiddos take a look in the cockpit, so they wouldn't get scared flying. (I have fond memories of toy stewardess' pins, even though they wouldn't get past the TSA nowadays.)
@@eddiekhoo2046 now they say that BA wants to add even more seats in the cattle class. I can only imagine how cramp it's going to be. Greed and selfishness will be the downfall of humanity. How much for 1st class....10k?
Being a former Captain myself with Etihad Airways on B777/87 I am happy to see people do appreciate the service delivered by my hard working former colleagues. Most people don't and are solely interested to get from A to B in time which is fine because thats our job. Nevertheless its a nice gesture and makes me feel proud to have worked together with outstanding people. Thank you! Adrian Hesse
Whenever I fly, I can't HELP but to think about all the hard working people I see on the plane (...AND those who I DON'T see) that make everything work like a clock. I acknowledge that each one is a true professional in their field. ...I can't wait to hit that lotto so I can travel Etihad 1st class!
Love your videos! It's nice to watch a travel experience with so much detail. It feels like I'm actually flying first class! This is definitely the positive side of technology because even though I don't have the money to fly first class all I have to do in go on UA-cam and I can travel anywhere in the world!
That's awesome Krystina. Love your spirit! If you want to fly Singapore Airlines first class with me, you should check out my recent A380 and B777 videos! You can fly with me (a la UA-cam) any time :D
In-flight shower, mystery solved. Some people leave the airplane looking drain and tired while others look so refreshed. Everyone should enjoy this at least once in a lifetime. Thanks for sharing
I can't believe I actually watched the entire thing. It's so captivating without people narrating over it.. So relaxing. I wonder what you do Eddie? Did you pay for this flight or redeem it through points?
I came to the comments to say the same thing. I was just passing through via reddit link and... what even happened? I don't even watch stuff like this let alone leave the speed on normal for something this long.
Yeah, I'm definitely gonna' try the Etihad Experience on my fixed Soc Sec income. (Meanwhile, I just gave 40 bucks I could hardly afford to the single mom (daddy skipped town) down the street to help out with her kids' meals.) Shame on us for not being 1-percenters.
Thanks for watching and leaving a post Rob. Please check out my recent reviews on Emirates and Singapore Airlines...two great competitors of Etihad! Take care :)
I went on a first class United flight from Chicago to Los Angeles some 20 yrs ago and it was nothing like this. I mean, you had a nicer meal than economy class and 2 inch wider seats and plastic over smiling flight attendants every time they pass by you and that's about it. Etihad now charges $43K for 2 people.
Domestic first class in the US is quite different to international first class, especially on these new Middle Eastern airlines! This experience was nowhere near the $43k figure you quote as this was the Apartment rather than the Residence.
I think hat when you travel on first class the internett should be free.When you pay thousands of dollars for a first class ticket then in my opinion everything should be all inclusive
In some incarnations we are poor, in some rich. We experience from all angles to learn different lessons. Each incarnation is bringing different experiences, teaching us different lessons. Each lifetime is equally important for our spiritual and emotional progress and growth.
I did this exact flight to Abu Dhabi, First Class and everything, only a few days ago and it was absolutely lovely! I loved that even though I was an unattended minor, I was allowed into the lounge, as most children can't go in without an adult.
Thanks for sharing the video, with those prices, my chances of ever traveling like that, are zero. I guess this is as close as i will ever be to first class. However, If I had a lot of money i would love to indulge myself traveling like that, its a world away from the sardine class i always fly.
You're welcome Robert. Hopefully you get to travel with a bit more comfort than sardine class. Premium economy is what business class used to be decades ago.
Very nice post. It was refreshing to hear only the rush of flight and view all the amenities without a narrative or opinionated review. While knowing that most of us will never experience this level of luxury, we now know and feel relieved that our upper class and government VIP’s will travel in style and not be mistreated like a heard of water buffalo, or as it is commonly called, Economy Class. Thank you Mr. Khoo for a very enjoyable video and tour. 😊❤️🇺🇸
omfg im going to Malta today and thats what we are planning to because do you know that you now have to pay for a meal on a plane? yeah really crappy food for like 10 pounds
This is what First Class SHOULD BE!! I fly out of Sydney to London quite regularly, why would you fly with anyone else!!! Qantas' first class is MORE expensive and it's nowhere near as good. This is the kinda privacy you want, an enclosed space.
I used to fly Qantas first regularly and the A380 is mediocre for the price. Unfortunately I now have to fly Etihad which as you can see is a lot nicer and the service is better again. I would prefer to fly australian but this is cheaper and so much better. The alternative was to fly qantas but on Emirates aircraft.
An amazing review, thank you. I would like to opportunity to fly first class one day. I have flown business class a few times and loved it. It is another world and the best way to travel.
Who in the world can eat that much food?? Holy smokes! I find it very odd that they charge for internet access. With everything imaginable they provide, they want to nickel and dime you for wi-fi? Weird. That said, what a wonderful aircraft and video. Thank you!!
It's the same reason internet is free at midrange hotels but an extra charge at high end hotels: the type of people who stay at high end hotels don't care about the extra charge.
Love your videos! You are a fantastic videographer! I feel so happy watching as it’s like I’m experiencing things I will never be able to in real life. It’s amazing! Thank you !

Did they accidentally put you in the luggage room ? lol
This should get more views than Sam Chui! No random talking, very unbiased, and straight-to-the-point as well as informative videos!
Thank you for your feedback! You're too kind! :)
The music was so hypnotising that I went to bed after I watched 7 minutes of it
mega lol
My Soft Little Pillow some part of music is etihad airways in cabin music.They have it on when plane boarding take place.
I am feeling sleepy
Yea the music made me cream my jamys
You WATCH Music ???? How ?
One time I was sitting in economy on an old plane and water started leaking out from above the window onto my lap. That will be the closest I ever get to getting a "shower" on a plane.
Hopefully it's water and not something like hydraulic fluid :s
Hi Eddie,
I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your video capturing the grace and style of what a luxury flight entails. You film it in such a way that it's not about you. . . but rather the experience. Well done.
Darryl
Aww, thanks for that. Really appreciate the positive feedback! :)
I hope you have been watching and enjoying my other flight reviews
I totally agree! Lovely music to listen to while we watch as well.
laurawgarts yes! I wonder what the music is. Both SoundHound and Siri have not been any help.
@@scottiew11 its etihad boarding music
Yes, music kept me here thru the entire video!

But alas I am at home and my dog is looking at me questioningly lol! Thanks for my mini vacation - I subbed and look forward to many more!
Oh you cracked me up so much!!! hahahaha :-D ROFLMAO!
lol dog be like where he at
indeed.
+Dilwale cricket the dog would also be like bruh...
This is by far one of the best "in flight review" videos I've seen. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience!
great video, I like how informative it is, and that it is done without bragging (as some might do) or exaggerating (as for example TV does)
You're welcome SamoScopom. I tell it as it is bud :)
+Eddie Khoo awesome pal
Cabin crew here, this video made me teary eyed during the 2020 Pandemic. 😢
It's so tragic what's happening to the aviation/travel industry, but COVID19 will be a temporary thing and in time we'll have this virus sorted. There'll be a time when we'll be up in the skies again :)
No idea why i watched this, but it was nice - and the music, too
Glad you watched it. And glad you enjoyed it Tom :)
+Eddie Khoo may i know the title of the music? it so peaceful 😄
It’s the Etihad boarding music that plays when passengers are boarding their planes.
I've always wondered what it's like to fly in first class, so thank you! Nicely filmed and well explained, plus the music provided a fitting ambience.
You're so welcome Sinead. You should see my latest video on Singapore Airlines First Class to compare with. Not all first classes are made equal! ;)
theres first class and then there is this, trust me first class can be just like business depending on the airline
I have not yet done this, but even their first class is quite fabulous. Etihad is definitely my favourite airline ever.
You should try it one day Sameera!
The music is most enchanting, love it
I also love this song. It is used in many airline videos like this one. It makes me want to don a tux and start ballroom dancing.
Half way through watching this I realized I'm out of Ramen, but luckily I got paid today so I can eat this weekend.

Makes Delta Sky Club look like the Greyhound of airline lounges.
Aww man!!! I enjoyed this video so much!!! It was very detailed and I felt like I was there with you!!!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching :)

How was your flight Andre. Hook me up with some tickets man
I take so many long haul trips in freakin' economy. i can only drool with envy!
fly in economy with a company that has a frequent flier or air miles program! then if you save up your miles you can use them to pay fully or partially for a flight in business or first.
#knowthestruggle
long haul trips in economy are horrible no matter what airline you're on 😩
actually, i just took delta directly from jfk to tokyo in economy and it wasn't terrible.
nah..I am a poor art student, and since I am petite economy is okay for me. Flyed from Kristiansand to Tokyo. with different airlines. The best economy was definitely airfrance. It wasn't that bad. 😂
Best Etihad review on UA-cam. No wonder its got 3 mill views plus. Well done! 👌👌👌
Thank you
That was beautiful and you must have felt very pampered. I thought your music selection was perfect. Thanks for sharing. 😊

Thank you Eddie for such a great vlog. If I ever won the lottery, this would be on my bucket list. I appreciate you showing us the amenities, the food, everything!
Very well done! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Flying surely has come along way since my days as a DC-3 captain! Thank you for your work!
Wow, DC-3!? Sounds like you have a long and interesting story to tell about your decades of flying :)
This looks amazing, so luxurious, I'd never be able to afford to travel like this even if I saved up a year's worth of wages, great to see though. Thanks for uploading your video.
OMG, I love that music !!!!! It makes me feel so calm and relaxed bro, thanks.
Pay 20k for a flight but still need to dish out another $20 for wifi.
effy zay I read your comment and thought you said wtf at the end. I know I know this is vital information to you.
Not every first class ticket is 20k.... think about it
effy zay is that how much that flight was 20k????🤪🤪and how does he stay fit he eats mostly a carb diet😝😝😝
that flight is not 20k. from adelaide to nyc its 7.8k.
Great Leader the point that even if the flight is 7.8k or 20k the WiFi should be bloody free!

"I prefer the look of the Ethiad boarding pass so I have them reprinted for me" ?
Exactly! I wanted to see the difference between the two.
FLI Heritage My point was why would anyone actually care that much to get it reprinted
Bob Stephens I know. That was my point as well. We agree! I wanted to at least see a significant difference since he wanted it reprinted.
Maybe as something to remind himself that he flew first class Etihad?
There. Someone said it
Wonderful video! The attention to details you put on this is great. I must also say that Etihad is doing First Class right!
Love that music and that Arabian Nights xylophone bit, makes me feel like I'm on a Disneyland ride or something.
Some would say Harry Potter-esque :p

Off course it is expensive. That appartment takes so much space so they loose many tickets to only one
My this is the most luxurious travel, I've seen. The food looked wonderful too.
It's lux to the max! Been a while since I've flown Etihad though....
love the soft music u use in the video
Was enjoying that as well. What is the name of the artist?
Joe V. That’s the Etihad boarding music...
That shower is nicer than my whole life
I only wish the background music was available on spotify.
if you can find it on youtube and download it onto your computer/phone, you can import it into spotify from the local files tab
what's the name of the background music, please.
Beyond words! To say FABULOUS / SUPERB TOO IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT...Mesmerising, pure delight. A dream flight!! So lucky u r

OMG, I’d starve myself for a week before I went on that flight!!😂🍾🍸🍓🥗🍤🍮
Or just go to the gym non-stop for a month after the flight ;)
Serene, ethereal, and entirely unlike my experiences of flying! Best dream sequence on UA-cam!
Thank you very much for those kind words Michael. You should see my popular videos on Singapore Airlines First Class :)
Dang I’m so American. I’m sitting up here flabbergasted, like, “That’s the main course?! That’s a toddler-sized portion!”
You're not flabbergasted if you were alive in the usa before the 90's
You've obviously never eaten in an American 4 or 5 star restaurant .
Lmao
@@matthewcooper3535 Why would I want to with portion sizes like that...
That dinner would still leave me starving
This video makes me think buying a lottery ticket might be a good idea. I'm hoping that once It's over I'll regain my sanity.
u guys act like 2000$ are millions chill dude only 2k u can flight first class
These videos are very well put together. Soothing music in the background and above all else, ZERO-BS commentary wise👍
I looked up first class tickets and immediately changed my mind after seeing the price.
Thanks for sharing the video, with those prices, my chances of ever traveling like that, are zero. I guess this is as close as i will ever be to first class. However, If I had a lot of money i would love to indulge myself traveling like that, its a world away from the sardine class i always fly.
You're welcome Robert. Hopefully you get to travel with a bit more comfort than sardine class. Premium economy is what business class used to be decades ago.

1st class drinks Coca-Cola
Business class drinks Pepsi.
Economy plus drinks RC
Economy drinks Bubba cola. :-)
Shouldn’t first class be RC. I mean. After all. It is Royal Crown.
@@Torontodude20000 - RC is my favorite!
Liche Christ I haven’t had one since the early 90’s. They used to sell them at the local A&P
Liche Christ RC is my favorite to. I just went with the flow
Torontodude20000 i havent had one in many many years. They where my favorite drink growning up through my pre teens to mid 20’s. 70’-90’s.
Very nice post. It was refreshing to hear only the rush of flight and view all the amenities without a narrative or opinionated review. While knowing that most of us will never experience this level of luxury, we now know and feel relieved that our upper class and government VIP’s will travel in style and not be mistreated like a heard of water buffalo, or as it is commonly called, Economy Class. Thank you Mr. Khoo for a very enjoyable video and tour. 😊❤️🇺🇸
Before I fly I have a meal in macdonalds
McLobster?
Me too
thats classy as fk
omfg im going to Malta today and thats what we are planning to because do you know that you now have to pay for a meal on a plane? yeah really crappy food for like 10 pounds
lol same
me: watching this video like actually going to purchase it one day
also me: 56 pennies on my bank account
Nigga you're doing a whole lot better than there folks. They have bank accounts with negative balances😂
*do you have a bank account*?
*do you have a bank account*?
Choices determine our station in life.
I have $2.31 in mine. I am so ahead of you. I can't wait to take this trip 😱
This is what First Class SHOULD BE!! I fly out of Sydney to London quite regularly, why would you fly with anyone else!!! Qantas' first class is MORE expensive and it's nowhere near as good. This is the kinda privacy you want, an enclosed space.
den525 Nah, first class should be rocketing through the sky at mach 2 at 60000 feet in a cramped seat with no headroom.
I used to fly Qantas first regularly and the A380 is mediocre for the price. Unfortunately I now have to fly Etihad which as you can see is a lot nicer and the service is better again. I would prefer to fly australian but this is cheaper and so much better. The alternative was to fly qantas but on Emirates aircraft.
how much does Qantas charge? I'm almost afraid to ask.
swifty1969 what’s the saying- if you have to ask, you can’t afford it!!! That’s us mere mortals, we can’t afford it
An amazing review, thank you. I would like to opportunity to fly first class one day. I have flown business class a few times and loved it. It is another world and the best way to travel.
Who in the world can eat that much food?? Holy smokes! I find it very odd that they charge for internet access. With everything imaginable they provide, they want to nickel and dime you for wi-fi? Weird.
That said, what a wonderful aircraft and video. Thank you!!
He’s eaten two meals in a row? Perhaps that’s why the seats have to be so wide?
It's the same reason internet is free at midrange hotels but an extra charge at high end hotels: the type of people who stay at high end hotels don't care about the extra charge.
"Honey, shouldn't you get cleaned up before your trip?"
"I'll shower on the plane."
Lol. What now? Haha.
@Chris- ... and what if the plane crashes while you are showering? you'd be a bare-assed naked corpse! Oh, the Humanity!
That got Dark all of a sudden lol
thanks for the video it maked a smile on my face :) I cant wait to meet you one day I subscribed because you weregreat :-)
You're welcome. Thank you for watching and subscribing!
i agree also !! such a nice video u made :)
I’m so fascinated by the type of food served in these types of flights. They absolutely look divine! Now I’m getting hungry again...
You should check out the food that's served on Emirates and Singapore Airlines. Those reviews are on my channel. Lots of food porn :)
who else felt so damn poor after watching thus video
mr rambo 😆😆😆😆
mr rambo it made me hungry too
i do !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It made my bank account hurt.
Me!!!!!
OMG, I want that chair in my living room!
Same here! :)
Must be tough living those hard conditions
Yeah, it's like a hard labour camp...
he had been running around sydney all day you know!..and those 1st class meals really do make you tired..cut him some slack,.
@@timn4481 I've always felt fine dining is more trouble than its worth.
Oh Geeezzzz it’s nice to have money to blow !!
Love your videos! You are a fantastic videographer! I feel so happy watching as it’s like I’m experiencing things I will never be able to in real life. It’s amazing! Thank you !
You're welcome shazzabelle123! I appreciate your view and comment :)
