    If you're going to splurge on 1st class, the best is really is Emirates .... You can shower, you get your own personal space too like what you had, but you can eat steaks as many as you want!

      a lot of people do that, hahaha!! just check out more of the first class & bespoke airline lounge and air passenger services videos! and can't remember the title but there's one in L.A. that even offers their high end customers a car & driver who takes them to an apartment on or near the airport grounds..a nice one filled with food & drinks & sweets..they have only a few so reservations are required..unless it's an unplanned, last minute request and one gets lucky that one is available ..so, no trying to get comfortable, waiting during a long layover or hours for a rescheduled flight. 😐

    • @WHERESSS
      @WHERESSS 5 лет назад +16

      actually JFK to ICN roundtrip in F on KAL is around 18k USD. so one way is 9k USD. also keep in mind that the A380 is has open Kosmo Suite and 747i has Kosmo Suite 2.0 with the doors. There is a difference in seating layout in business as well. The newer Pretige suite is pretty sweet. However the difference between Prestige and First on KAL, while being 3x in cash price, is only 25% more with miles. So when booking with cash, book Prestige, and use the miles to book in F. When looking at the complete picture, 160k miles+$300 cash for this itinerary, hard and soft product is cheap AF. If I was flying to Asia, I would just take this and connect at ICN. Another cheap option is JFK-ICN on Asiana business using ANA miles, again connecting in ICN to your final dest. I think it is about 95k(!!) roundtrip, which is another bargain. All in all, the Korean carriers provide the best redemption value for premium cabin from US to Asia.

      Obviously these two commenters dont know anything about international travel or airports. Instant ramen does not, ever, belong to a first class lounge. I'm pretty sure Koreans are able to produce actual fresh authentic Korean food, soups, dumplings, kimchi, bibimbap, all fresh and steaming with a side of international foods and pastries to go with the Korean buffet, wine, soju, champagne and other drinks. That is what many not even first class lounges have, the lounge was like a sad dark conference room that someone forgot existed, despicable

    Thank you, dropped first class from my bucket list. Haven't seen to many vids that i thought were relatable, or just as pleasant as yours. You try anything and most everything for the experience and your audience. Your not so prissy, that you relate how this encounter would be if it were me. Except yes I would have had some whiskey, a whiskey sour if they had it. Those Shin noodles to me are like peach pie to others. Both a comfort food and pay mine dollars in Oregon to have here and there. I enjoyed every minute! With the differences, I think we are twenty years apart is all.

      jeanchristie it’s just a secondary lounge at an airport that’s not even a hub for Korean Airlines.

    This guy has no fear! He sits and talks to himself (well, the camera), and he doesn't care whether there are people watching or not. It's really quite commendable. I wouldn't be able to do that.

    My first time flying first class was with Emirates and it was pretty gosh darn amazing and well worth the money! Cape Town to Dubai and then Dubai to Los Angeles. Both flights were long and the flight to LA had showers. I'd love to try other airlines with first class, but I'd have to save up big time. It's kinda hard to find an experience that would beat Emirates though.

    Mikey, I loved watching this video and you did brilliantly.
    Having travelled First Class, it was always due to a free upgrade.
    My advise to anybody reading this, if you're travelling alone, always dress for a business meeting. I've been approached and upgraded three times, and aside from the chauffeur limo, you receive exactly the same service.
