The first decent review which isn't bombarding us with "look how many miles I've already earned to be able to spend them here..." thank you. Like really... Neutral reviews with the main purpose to show, not to rate,that's what I'm here for. Because the rating is in the viewers head, not done by the person showing it.
Try watching so me Walk with Me Tim, far more enjoyable and informative, and nort so many repeats of shots of the same things. This could have taken up half the time it did
I just don’t have enough zeros in my bank account to even dream about flying like this. My best flight experience was first class on American Airlines from Germany to the US and I thought that the lie flat bed and real silverware was absolute heaven! It’s amazing to see how fancy a flight can get. Great video! ❤
Even business class seats look amazing. Wow, get to watch the quiet plane landing - I can feel the massive engines in your recorded audio vibrate on my tablet, literally shaking. Powerful plane!
The lounge was very nice ... handsomely elegant! As for the Residence, I believe I would crawl right into that bed and stay there for the remainder of the flight. Maybe I could get someone to toss me a grape every now and then! Just let me sleep! Lol!
It has been awhile since I have gone on a trip with you but happily I was able to dream of being in this world. As always your video skills are above excellent, the music calming, the view extraordinary and brings the world you are in to your viewers in a way that makes it almost like a virtual trip. Thank you for bringing this to viewers like me!
Wow, how fabulous. I initially thought the first area converted into the bed, but then you showed a separate bedroom. Just stunning. Shame it was a short flight! 🤣
Your videos also serve as a means of inspiration and motivation for me to work hard so I too can travel the world. Thank you so much, keep posting more videos.
I remember those fabulous, very refined and expertly trained butlers looking after the residences. Still, having that private bathroom and bedroom is amazing along with all that space and privacy.🥂
Love that you really took your time showing every aspect of your flight. Feels like we were right there with you! From one luxury travel creator to another, thank you for sharing your incredible work ♥
No matter how long that flight was, my body would have been sleeping on that bed. 😴 A never again experience, Middle Eastern airlines just do things better than their counterparts. Thanks for sharing 👍👍
Incredible FC space. Never flown Etihad but we plan to at some point… In my opinion their planes have the prettiest livery in the sky. Also I hear their newly built terminal in Abu Dhabi is amazing. Thanks for another great production.
Wow. This is truly one of the most stunning flight accommodations I have ever seen! It really breaks the creative limits of what can be possible in commercial air travel. Anyways, I have long awaited the day that you would finally review the iconic One&Only Reethi Rah! For my personal preference, it sits third on my list to Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani
I flew with Etihad for years when I lived in the Gulf. I typically flew business class and occasionally got lucky enough to be upgraded to first class on a short connecting flight into Riyadh or Jeddah. Over the years though, it seems that Etihad has made a few cutbacks on service and amenities. For example, years ago, business class passengers were able to receive complimentary spa service in Abu Dhabi Etihad lounges, but then the complimentary spa services were cancelled for business class and only extended to first class. I haven’t kept up to date with Etihad to know if first class passengers could still get complimentary spa service in Abu Dhabi. So it’s not that surprising to learn that the Residence no longer has a private butler like it used to. I thought it added to a nicer more personalized touch although I’d never be able to afford it. Don’t get me wrong. Etihad is still a wonderful airline, much better than most. I’ve just noticed changes, not necessarily for the better, in the years I’ve flown with them. Hopefully, when I’m able to fly with Etihad again, they’ll live up to being the airline I fell in love with the first time I traveled with them.
I absolutely love your RUclips channel! I just about watched them all abd fell in love with all of you videos you have shown on your RUclips channel. Keep them coming for the ones who doesn't get to go anywhere. People can only dresm of going to these beautiful places like you do. Talk about going on these beautiful adventures you certainly know how to entertain your viewers.
Yay I can finally watch this video & learn for my own good. This is the video that I've been waiting for, it really helps me a lot & I can experience this lovely residence class one fine day when I grow older. I love your videos a lot & it really inspires me a lot! ❤️
What's really cool, Dr. LTE, is that your luxury suite has a hallway--lol. I've seen a few other videos of this suite--one traveler said he was too excited to sleep. (I felt perhaps Etihad could have provided him with a teddy bear to make him feel more at home :) Gotta say that Etihad A380 is one absolutely gorgeous featherless bird! (Fabulous lounge, too.) Thanks for the ride, Dr. LTE!
I agree it's one of the best first class products around. It's a shame it's such a short flight. I think it would be an ideal way to spend a 15 hour flight.
As expected, the lounge is out of this world!! More Luxury than lots of 5 star hotels! The suite, is probably bigger than some tiny house bedroom :) There are so many great food selections :), I wonder did expert ever try to empty the digestion system, before going to the lounge? Once again, thanks Expert!
mewah, perjalanan yang luar biasa. aku percaya, hal ini memberimu pengalaman dan wawasan baru yang jauh lebih luas dan aku senang bisa menyaksikannya di youtube. sehat dan senang untukmu 🎉
Thanks for new great video. The comfort level in the new residence is once again storming the heavens. Etihad is a great compromise between cheap European and expensive Middle Eastern airlines. At the same time, they are close to the best of the top five companies in terms of service, but often much cheaper than them in terms of prices. The main disadvantage of Etihad was connecting in the tired terminals of Abu Dhabi airport. Now this disadvantage has disappeared with the appearance of a new terminal, which is not inferior in comfort to the airports in Doha or Dubai.
9:45 Incidentally RyanAir which operates at the complete opposite of the economical spectrum than this channel focusses on has a similar safety record, with only one hull loss (flight 4102; due to birdstrike, not something you can prevent with safety measures) and a forced landing by the Belorussian air force (flight 4978; not something you can prevent either). They have been in operation for two decades longer than Etihad, in their first two decades they had zero incidents. Safety isn't a luxury.
Fantastic review - beautifully shot and a most welcome review from all the 'look at me!' Vloggers. I was lucky enough to travel Etihad First (not the Residence though) at the back end of last year and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I did however think the quality of wines was below par (especially when compared to competitors' offerings and the apartment was a bit of a waste as there was no need to convert the sofa into a bed during what was a 7 hour, daytime flight. A flight to NYC would justify it far more.
Wow, how fabulous. I initially thought the first area converted into the bed, but then you showed a separate bedroom. Just stunning. Shame it was a short flight!
That is the ultimate 1st class flight! I will never be able to afford it but what a way to fly! Thanks for sharing and the plane landing at the end was spectacular 👍🏻😊
Quite frankly for what is no doubt a $15,000-$20,000 flight per person while this is nice for couples the fit and finish is nothing like the Cabin Suites on Singapore Air that have natural wood and gold trim and cool lighting preferences. Also their wine list blows away this one (I know ...have been collecting and tasting for well over 30 years). Actually most impressed with the econ class which looks super nice and actually a bit luxurious for economy when compared to others.
Thank you once again for sharing with us. This is truly one impressive Product. I was just wondering, why we do have to activate the subtitles in the settings, because the subtitles were already included in the past. Is that some new thing of RUclips? Pls let me know. Thank you
I now create my subtitles via RUclips, which allows viewers to translate them in their own language (instead of uploading a video with only English subtitles).
I have been waiting for this since I heard that you were going to do it! Everything looked amazing from the lounge to the area itself. Too bad that the amenities kit (did I miss it? I didn't see it...) and the service is the same as first, I think it would make a nice parting gift.
Now that isn't fair. When you work hard? You can play hard. And putting down those who can afford this (from hard work and never settling for anything less than the best?) To the victor go the spoils. Only risks that don't stand the chance of potentially taking off? Are the ones that aren't taken. Shoot for the stars. You have to remember, wealth is earned. Not guaranteed. You get out of life what you put in. And for some? A content life suits them. But to have ill feelings for others? Is nothing more than regret of a shot one had, and didn't take...........
My idea of flying, but id want to have a long haul flight of 13hrs so i could use the bedroom. For an Australian, that was a short flight, pity because it looks sublime. It takes me 22hrs to fly to London from Sydney Australia, 2 connections. But the longest connection is 13hrs and i just can't do it anymore cattle class. I need to win the lottery 😩. ❤❤😂😂
I remember a few years ago, we flew with the same plane, same route, and mid flight the plane turned back to Abu Dhabi because one of the engines shut down. Scary experience was.
What a flex. First it was I have a seat that converts to a bed. Now, I have a separate bedroom with my own toilet and shower. Etihad never fails to impress.
I have almost been there.... A flight from London to Abu Dhabi on A380 First Apartment in 2017. Staff could have been better, compared to Qatar and Emirates. :)
During covid, when A380s were being deserted, i thought airlines will abandon them but it's good to see A380s back in skies. Earlier, Etihad used to offer complimentary chauffer car to pick you up from hotel or residence, they used to send 2 cars, 1 for luggage second for passengers. Is this service still there or have they removed it? Thanks for this video, had been long time seen an A380! Namaste.

I don't think "review" means what you think it means.
Exactly!
If only I was given just a one time chance to experience such luxury.. Yet I’m grateful I live a life where each day is precious come what may.💕

لدي مايكفي من التسعات 😏
I know I'll never get to travel in The Residence but goodness I can dream.......
Never say never. Anything is possible ❤
You just said Never tho@@Shana911
It’s too expensive even for my dreams
You are not missing much
Even business class seats look amazing. Wow, get to watch the quiet plane landing - I can feel the massive engines in your recorded audio vibrate on my tablet, literally shaking. Powerful plane!
“Even” business class 😂
Damn even economy looks good and has monitors for each passenger. Some domestic first doesnt even have them.
Oh how I wish I was rich enough to fly this planes first class. It's hands down the most amazing first class way to travel I have ever seen before!
how beautiful everything is! I want to fly in such comfort once in my life😍❤☺
Pilots absolutely buttered that landing
Economy class looks good too. One of those airlines that manages to offer a bit of luxury to passengers traveling on all budgets.
The lounge was very nice ... handsomely elegant! As for the Residence, I believe I would crawl right into that bed and stay there for the remainder of the flight. Maybe I could get someone to toss me a grape every now and then! Just let me sleep! Lol!

Thank you
I truly believe 7 hours is not enough to enjoy this magnificent product 😅
Today, Etihad announced a new route from NYC to Abu Dhabi wtih the A380. You can experience the residence for 14 hours when the service starts.
@@rem05033Australia to America or London... probably the only way it'd be worth it
I saw another VLOG with ETIHAD beyond 1st Class, but you one is more informative and brilliantly filmed! Thanks for sharing.
This takes
*"EXCUSE ME! EXCUSE ME! I WAS TAKING A NAP, AND I WOKE UP IN THE SKY!"*
To a whole new level.

Thank you for sharing your residence experience.
Great Video, the Best one ever on “The Residence” 🤩
Just spectacular!! It has always been a dream of mine to have this experience one day but this will probably be as close as I can get.
Love that you really took your time showing every aspect of your flight. Feels like we were right there with you! From one luxury travel creator to another, thank you for sharing your incredible work ♥
Simply phenomenal. Your best video till now Sir.😊❤
Thank you ☺️
An other great video and review with only txt and music instead of long n exhausting talking , , thanks for sharing ☺
Excellent! Excited to see an „update“ on the O&O Reethi Rah next. Thank you in advance!

It's awesome... Hopefully everyone who watch this video can buy the first class tickets...
Have I ever flown The Residence ? No the luxury travel expert, I have never😅😅😅. Superb video though
Neither have i funnily enough. 😅
Not gonna lie, I was really vibin' off that soundtrack. Especially 21:40
A master of your craft. Thank you so much

Great video. What’s the music used throughout it?
Hardly anyone can afford 1st class anymore so they made good use of space for even richer travellers who think 1st class is too rustic.
