The sound of the light music playing and the over-head bins closing on a boarding flight always calms me down so much, I feel like you guys could have added more of that :P however it was still a fantastic vlog! #Etihadgiveaway
What a fantastic trip report. It was excellent! Unlike a lot of the ‘star’ airline trip reporters you include good amounts of the taxi, take off and landing, which is nice. Please don't change this. These are some of the best parts of an airplane trip and so many vloggers speed right through it! Clearly, they are not real aviation fans. They are simply fans of luxury - which flying business class certainly is. Great report. Loved it.
Really nice review and visuals. Pro Tip. Try and white-balance the camera on those napkins or hot towels. Or try in editing to tweak the colour in post a bit more to better show the product. .
I flew the same seat on the same route a year ago and found the lounge and food to be great, the service good and the functionality of the seat good (although it is aging badly). However, in lie flat mode (a year ago they still provided mattresses but by request, and I managed to grab a couple extra to increase padding) I still found the seat very hard, and not much knee room. I slept three hours though, so it wasn’t too bad.
Hope your experience was better than my journey on their A380, from Abu Dhabi to Sydney in Business Class. The crew on my flight were sour and unattentive.
I agree the Etihad crews are not super friendly unlike Emirates. But the food and comfort of the A380 in Business was superb. And being to order when you want.
Very nice video. I really liked the music choices, the "cinematic" clips, and overall quality. It was difficult to see some of the menu items though due to blurring. If you do this again maybe take your time when scanning it?
Excellent trip report! The cabin was beautiful. You had a good wing view, if only the window was bigger and not double layer glass. I hope to try Etihad in the future.
Well done narrative throughout the flight. Hence, you did not explain to us if pj's and slippers were provided. Also is there a snack bar during the flight for business class and/or first class passengers. great music.
Thank you! There were no pajamas or slippers provided. There is a bar available for first and business pax where you can order drinks and snacks, but I didn't see anyone use it during the flight.
The massage feature would not have looked any different, its really just the seat vibrating. The blinds were locked shortly after takeoff :( and then I forgot haha
Good review, however you said the the remote control reminded you o the one of the A350. Etihad does not have any A350 in their fleet... yet. It is however simliar to their Boeing 777 and the Airbus 330. They do have 62 A350 on order which will be delivered in 2019. Keep up the good work. I liked the Etihad A380 aswell!
I took this same flight in 2017 in Business. It was the best Business. Great food. Very comfortable. However Emirates crew were friendlier. We landed in the morning.
That was filmed on a sony a7iii. There was some post processing and color grading done to make it look like that hue, but it reflects what the cabin felt like at the time.
very nice indeed (subscriber)! Where I am based there is a lack of color / grey skies so I try to make the colors stand out in my reviews. Look forward to more posts!
There might be some amenities such as a bassinet addition to the business class seat, but these would need to be pre-arranged with the airline. I am not too sure sorry
never use any business class so please answer, the food in lounge is free unlimited foods or we have to pay again for that? i dont really know thank you for helping and sharing a good reviews
I flew Etihad in March. Lounge is nice, you can have a sit down dinner via their menu if you don't care for the buffet. I love that they can open a fresh bottle of Champagne for you. However, before their financial troubles, they used to fly twice from JFK. I took the late afternoon/early evening flight. Now, they only have one flight per day, late at night. Funny, I picked the same seat - 16K. Although you have the option to change the seat firmness, I still found the seat to be too firm for sleeping. Champagne, wines and food is good, but I loved their steak sandwich on my return flight as a sank. The A 380 is a very comfortable plane. Next year, I am checking out Qatar's Q suites on A 350-1000 out of JFK.
All the videos in your channel are best for aviation geeks. Always find and eager to see the trip reports. Thanks for them. Ethiad A380 trip report was really a good one.#ethiadgiveaway
The Etihad A380 looks amazing!!! :) I'll be on Etihad tomorrow, but on a 777-300! I had a question though, for the Wi-Fi package you got, was it for the entire duration of the flight or was there a data cap? #etihadgiveaway
Thank you for the full take off! Your camera’s low light capability is super amazing! Editing was also superb. Keep it up Alvin/Peterson! ☺️ #EtihadGiveaway
Once again, great video. The way I love them: very detailed. Your videos keep getting better over time! Definitely trying out this product at some point in my life. Great work Alvin. #EtihadGiveaway
Thanks Karim! Spent quite a bit of effort on this one ;) Good to hear you are seeing improvements too! This Etihad product is definitely worth trying. :)
Woah, Nice Trip Report Video of Etihad A380! Very detailed and smooth. Love the colour inside cabin. Also I love how you edit this video, especially that cinematic shot when showing the seat! looking forward for another video from you! #etihadgiveaway
If you were to buy this outright with cash, it would be almost $10K on a round-trip, but since I don't have that kind of money, I redeemed this as part of a one-way AAdvantage award ticket from YVR - JFK - AUH - CMB - MLE for 75,000 AA miles. 🙂
I don't understand why reviewers show the entire takeoff and landing. We know you got airborne and landed safely. Cut that portion of the video by 80% and use that time to show the menus more slowly. Thank you.
Some people actually enjoy the takeoffs and landings and complain when I cut them out or put music over them 🤷🏻 there’s no pleasing everyone! You can also pause the video if you actually want to read the menu.
Early here! Nice video, Etihad's Business class studio looked like a hotel in the sky, their First Class Apartment should be like a private home lol. I'm confused on why some planes must be towed to the gate while some don't. That #EtihadGiveaway sounds promising, I honestly wanted that for my collection, I got no collection of Etihad yet :)
I can't even imagine how luxurious First Class is, let alone the Residence! Our plane was towed to the gate because it had been sitting there parked for a while already. Thanks for entering the giveaway! ;)
Thanks for the detailed review on the Business Class product on the Etihad A380. Truly appreciate it! :) I really loved the posh and modern ambiance Etihad has in their cabins. Were the cabin crew on your flight interactive and engaging? :) #EtihadGiveaway
Great review! I’m not a fan of front/backwards facing seats. Will never understand that design concept nor outward facing seats towards the aisle (think Virgin & Air New Zealand) that have my neighbor and their feet as a point of view 🤨. I just enjoy privacy which is why I tend to end up in First Class
I really wish Airbus had developed the A380 in the 1970s after seeing how successful Boeing was with the 747, and then came out with the plane in the early 1980s so that it could have dominated the skies for decades alongside the Boing 747.
I'm so overjoyed to have found your RUclips Channel, without a doubt this is one of the best aviation channels out there, those cinematic shots of the Business Class studio seat looked so amazing and on-point. Such a shame that Etihad are making cuts to their onboard service particularly with not serving caviar onboard and the closing down or downgrade of some airport lounges #etihadgiveaway

Thanks! Exactly what I was going for!
The attention to detail and quality comments makes your review video so easily watchable. Great job and waiting for the next ones.
Thanks for the great feedback! 😁
OMWTG is the best flight reviewing channel
Love Etihad's boarding music. Amazing amount of detail in the trip report, I look forward to seeing more from the channel!
Etihad's boarding music is super classy! Thanks!
The best part of vlog is u ate Indian breakfast 19:57 ❤️.ur awsome in blogging & plane spotting .lots of love from India
It was absolutely delicious!! ♥️
@@onemoreweektogo Hope iam waiting fo ur ANA 380 Review , please upload soon 🤩
The sound of the light music playing and the over-head bins closing on a boarding flight always calms me down so much, I feel like you guys could have added more of that :P however it was still a fantastic vlog! #Etihadgiveaway
Thanks Daniel! I'll try to get some more of that music for you next time ;)
This plane is looking like a 5 stars hotel #EtihadGiveaway
I have sat on this aircraft twice in the business studios on the same route and it was EPIC!
It was such a great flight!
I like your style to do these trip reposts, they are very simple and detailed! Keep it up!!
Thanks! We try to make our trip reports a bit different than regular trip reports :)
I think your videos have the best production quality from pretty much all aviation vloggers!
Wow! Thanks so much, that's quite a compliment! :D
Very excellent performance by you thankyou for your well performed review. Etihad Airways is the best airline I love 💕
Incredible review! Congrats 🎉 11:11 song?
It’s been awhile and I loved the video! Feels so therapeutic just watching the entire video.
Thanks I really appreciate that! I've been a bit busy but hope to create videos more frequently!
7:10 that looked unbelievably simple...

Hope your experience was better than my journey on their A380, from Abu Dhabi to Sydney in Business Class. The crew on my flight were sour and unattentive.
That's a shame, it sure didn't sound like my flight! My experience with the crew was great.

Amazing Video Guys !! Also a big fan of your Instagram Posts
Thank you, glad to hear it! :)
Superb quality contents in your video- well done. Safe travels always.
Thanks Patrick!
Also the old boarding music 🎵 make and review good memories
You've filmed really great!!
Thank you! :)

Thank you! There were no pajamas or slippers provided. There is a bar available for first and business pax where you can order drinks and snacks, but I didn't see anyone use it during the flight.
Anyone notice that the boarding music is the same as in Nonstop Dan’s report of Etihad’s First Class.
Great camera work but you didn't show the seat massage feature or the electric blinds :p
The massage feature would not have looked any different, its really just the seat vibrating. The blinds were locked shortly after takeoff :( and then I forgot haha
I am gonna fly on this same plane in a month now so it looks rly great just wanted to make sure I spent money on a good business class flight
Great video! I’m hoping to fly the Etihad A380 soon.
Definitely give it a try!

Hey I’m going on this exact flight and tips before I go
I took this same flight in 2017 in Business. It was the best Business. Great food. Very comfortable. However Emirates crew were friendlier. We landed in the morning.
Good review! I liked the Hue of the video, what did you use / which camera for the beginning and also the cabin tour in the beginning?
That was filmed on a sony a7iii. There was some post processing and color grading done to make it look like that hue, but it reflects what the cabin felt like at the time.
very nice indeed (subscriber)! Where I am based there is a lack of color / grey skies so I try to make the colors stand out in my reviews. Look forward to more posts!
Any idea how are the seats for families with a baby on the business class? Any different configuration available?
There might be some amenities such as a bassinet addition to the business class seat, but these would need to be pre-arranged with the airline. I am not too sure sorry
never use any business class so please answer, the food in lounge is free unlimited foods or we have to pay again for that? i dont really know thank you for helping and sharing a good reviews
Yup, the food is free in the lounge!
@@onemoreweektogo thank you so much❤
Wow!!! Incredible trip report!! Really enjoyed it! Huge like!
Thanks so much Eric!! :)
Great trip review! I was wondering when did you make this trip and how full was the flight?
I took the flight in October 2018. Id say the flight was about 85-90 % full.
@@onemoreweektogo Thanks!
Nice trip report sir Etihad airways 🇦🇪✈.
What a stunning lounge great. A well as the hole service on there A380…!
A cozy lounge, not too big, but had everything I need!
Wonderful review Alvin! Nice selection of music. I'm looking forward to the next one. I'm just curious which fps you shoot at. 24 fps?60fps?
Thanks so much :) I try to shoot at 24 but some of the shots were from my phone so I believe they were 30fps. The ones from my gopro are also 30.
Never seen such high quality reviews!! Subbed 😃 #Etihadgiveaway
Thanks so much! 😊
Awesome video my friend, what was the capacity like to Abu Dhabi was the flight full?
The business cabin was pretty full, I would say 85-90% full.
Plane ticket cost please ?
I am from Bangladesh
It was redeemed with miles.
Did you only get fed once for 12 hours ?
I am in love with your videos
That's great to hear! 😁
Incredible as usual!!
Thanks so much!

What a coincidence! I think when I was in the lounge, the a la carte was downsized to a much smaller menu.
Great videos ❤️❤️ keep it up
Thanks very much :)
Great trip report! I look forward to flying with Etihad (in economy) :D
Thanks Jayden! When will you be flying with them?
Awesome work man. 😊
Thank you! :D
Just to ask is the headphones good like is it noise cannceling is there sqeaks Etc.
It was noise cancelling, and from my memory it was pretty comfortable.
@@onemoreweektogo oh ok beacuse my haedphones where not noise cannceling and squeaking and also some other vloggers
The music is nice when you enter the plane

Where did you buy the Etihad diecast airplane model? #Etihadgiveaway 🇦🇪❤
I bought it on the plane, from the duty-free catalog!
Awesome review Alvin!
Thanks Derek!!
The Etihad A380 looks amazing!!! :) I'll be on Etihad tomorrow, but on a 777-300! I had a question though, for the Wi-Fi package you got, was it for the entire duration of the flight or was there a data cap? #etihadgiveaway
Unfortunately there was a data cap, and it's a pretty small one at 180mb, so I had to use it conservatively. Hope you enjoy your flight!
Why the playne not goes in other direction??
Why he goes over the Atlantic Ocean and Europe not over the
Pacific Ocean and Japan????
probably closer to fly that way to Abu Dhabi
It is also due to wind direction at that particular time.
The Eithed is amazing Travel jounery .🤔
could just be me but the plane nearly overran the runway with how close it was to the end of the runway around 14:30
Very professionally made in my view! Very well done!
Thanks so much!
What was the business class occupancy?
It was like 90% full
I Love your edit style on Instagram. Can you Show us your edits?
Hey! I don't have any plans on making an editing tutorial at this time. Maybe in the future!
Thank you for the full take off! Your camera’s low light capability is super amazing! Editing was also superb. Keep it up Alvin/Peterson! ☺️ #EtihadGiveaway

did u like the indian breakfast poha????

I loved it!!! 😁
Need advice?! who has the better business class, Emirates or Etihad?
#etihadgiveaway
If given the choice between the two, I'd probably take Emirates.
Are lounges only for business class passengers?
yes or you pay to get in.
You should be able to get in if you have status with Etihad as well

How cool is this mate😍🔥
What is 5“7“ in cm?
170cm
The backward facing seats are so dumb… Only find that in BA business as well lol
BA business is a little worse, but I agree it's not the best for privacy.
@@onemoreweektogo And AA 788.
@@onemoreweektogo A little? BA Business is trash. It's only slightly better than North America "Business" Class.
