The garden. The 2 are quite far from each other so depends which gate for departure is. They are both great lounges

You used the word “invaluable” wrongly here. “Invaluable” means highly valuable. Check dictionary :)

No, just a business class seat. Business lite refers to the fare tier. Not the seat.

I actually agree! The food could be more improved. It felt like a copycat of AM's food.

You'll love the Finnair business class! It's definitely a treat for a long-haul flight.

I've heard that's been a common complaint since the pandemic. I wonder if they’re trying to cut costs and serve something more basic.

I recently flew their new Aria suite, i'll make a video of that soon-ish

Only first class passengers

Thanks to your tips, I utilized this perks last week! I didn’t know either haha.

oh they have increased prices? :(

Really? The food was fine in the Amex lounge. The have amazing chinese soup there :)

haha that was actually a podcast youtube channel by Andrei Jikh call "Don't sweat it"

there's a secret lounge room with around 12 loungers, it's all the way on the other end where all the food is

If you are paying cash then yes go with Ana or sq. But if u r using points then you gotta take what’s available.

Yes I do. I flew business and first class and review them, giving future business and first class passengers the info they need so they know if their money is well spent or not. My entitlement helps with providing them this info.

Haha omg. That sounds bad!

Yes there is. Near the entrance

Looks like YOU are the one who has the narrow view here. I fly 50-100 business class flights each year with just as many different airlines and business class configurations. Looks like it is you who doesn't fly enough variety of products. If I only have the option of flying economy and this business class, sure i will always choose business class, no matter how bad they are. But I am comparing this product with tons of other business class products out there to make the comparison. Etihad current lounge is phenomenal, their old one, terrible. You couldn't tell because all u have flown is Etihad. Dont get me wrong, Etihad is my top 10 airlines personally, but every airlines have weaknesses, even my favourite Qatar and Singapore. No airlines is perfect. Have u watch my other Etihad A350 video? Did u hear how much i was praising their seat? No u didn't, then u r not a very well informed viewer either. Come back to me and have a civilized debate when u have flown more different airlines products. I am an aviation youtube video maker, i can't be praising everything every time. Video like this is to make comparison with other airlines, and inform viewers what they will encounter with each product, if u dont understand this, I can't help you.

@@SuiteFlyer thanks for bringing to my attention that I have a narrow view. I'll definitely discuss this with my therapist. However you are assuming that I've only flown Etihad. It's certainly easy to assume untruths when you're angry or insecure while trying to get your point across. Your video headline is a picture of an Etihad business class seat with the word " BEWARE" in big bold letters. Really? Beware of what ? It looks so serious and daunting yet the only thing you're saying to back that up is a backward facing seat and a business class security line where people cut in front of you? Oh yes and there was something about the business class lounge in the old Abu Dhabi airport that was below your standards? Is that how you get people to click on your videos by having a big intimidating BEWARE sign that insinuates something terrible? I don't care how many times you fly business class or however many airlines you've flown on. If you want to consider yourself the authority on airline reviews in order to give yourself some sense of self importance then go ahead, all the power to you. Just be mindful on how you get people to click on your videos and be respectful of the business that give you your platform where you hold such self importance.

First of all, thank you for writing this long comment, it only makes my video getting more views :) As youtube algorithm loves engaging viewers with long comments. So Ill definitely respond to every engaging viewer :D You dont watch youtube much, do u? Drawing attention to one thing is enough to make a video thumbnail. Also, my "BEWARE" is pertaining to choosing your next Etihad business class if you have the option, because this backward facing one is not a great one. Why choose this one while they have amazing ones in their A350s or the new 787s, both with doors with privacy, and does not have to look at someone awkwardly on the opposite side? And half of the cabin gets to enjoy the true window seat. My "Beware" is still accurate, to avoid the backward facing aisle "Window" seat. Do not choose this one. I welcome all those who "Thank" me for informing them. You included :) And I'll appreciate you to keep writing long form essay type of reply to me, even if u r here to write a negative review. Clicking that "Thumbs down" button also helps, that shows to youtube that I "Hit a nerve" of someone lol. The worst form of viewers youtube and RUclipsrs hate are none responsive viewers. I look forward to your next 1/5 star trust pilot review haha

@@SuiteFlyer first of all , I don't care whatsoever about RUclips's algorithms or how my messages might help or hurt you. It seems to me that you really can handle criticism very well and continue to miss the point. It's like I'm having a conversation with an 8 year old kid that continues to respond with empty self validation and immature comments as a way of deflecting or defending yourself to your RUclips followers. You wrote that you welcome people thanking you for your comments including me. Is that what's happening here ? Seem I've hit your nerve. I'm actually enjoying this conversation, reading your petty insults while you try really hard defending yourself to your supporters. I can continue this for weeks and months if I choose because I'm actually getting a kick out of it. And as you wrote you'll be happy because my continues comments helps you get more viewers. Great ! It's a win win for both of us . My point again : Etihad is an excellent airline and we both agree on that. Your BEWARE in big bold lettering has much more of a negative connotation then what is described in your video. I think this was done on purpose so you could get people to click on your video. It's unfair and deceptive. You should change the heading to something like " backward facing seats ?" and let people decide for themselves if it rises to the seriousness of "BEWARE"! I met people who thought it was kinda cool to sit backwards, especially during take off " (their words, not mine ") The airline industry has a very difficult job making people happy on many different levels. I think your other criticisms about the airline were unfair and unjustified. But that's just my opinion. How about this : let's talk again in a few years and let me know where you're at with your RUclips channel. That should prove my point. If proven wrong which would be evident by your RUclips growth and success I would be happy to apologize for my words and admit that my comments were wrong and baseless. But I highly doubt that will happen

Haha nice long comment, thanks for that. I swear to god, this video is my 3rd best performing video in the past 48 hrs because of u :) This video was made long ago and still performing because of u! Keep writing! Of course u hit my nerve, with ur first comment saying "If you don't want to sit in the 787's reverse seats then get a real job". LOL, who r u again? Looks like u r the one who is super free and without a job now. You clearly dont understand how youtube works. And there is a word to describe what u r trying to say, it's call "Click bait". It would be true if i have no base to support my claim. But i clearly showed that i have a point. My opinion is being supported by the reasons i said in the video. If u dont like it, move on. Otherwise, my video photo, by the way, it's call "Thumbnail", stays. If it is incorrect, or offensive, youtube will take it down. Clearly youtube has no issue. Why dont u try to write to youtube to convince them that I am deceiving viewers here with my video thumbnail? You said i am immature, well who is "playing" with the immature now? LMAO. Looks like YOU are the one who has nobody to talk to and want to speak to someone. I respond to you because of the algorithm. But you keep replying, is you not having friends or family to talk to. Go seek some help man. Im not your therapist. But Keep writing to me, yes honestly. I dont mind. This old video is my top 3 performing video now in the last 48 hrs. Pretty coincident, dont u think? :)

I just want to agree that with most airlines you almost have coffin style bed. I can never sleep with the walls direct next to my head and my feet in that little area. I always sleep in a mix of lounge position and bed position. Funny enough the only positive about was (the old) Lufthansa Business Class. Top experience. I had an empty seat next to me though, so i might felt a bit more free than with someone next to me in that 2-2-2 configuration.

Yea the new ones r very restrictive. It’s more private for sure but not very comfortable for long haul flights

Future new Cathay business seats will become like that also 😅
