  • I DID IT! On this flight I accomplished a dream I have had for a long time. I finally got on board the Emirates A380 First Class on a 16 hour flight from Dubai to San Francisco. The flight was incredible from start to finish including airport experiences. If I ever become a rich man, you can bet I’ll be back. But for now, I hope you enjoy the video!

    The A380 1st Class flight is superb. It is the only flight that I do not mind being late while we are on the air. I would literally starve myself two weeks before the flight because I know that I would be eating so much food. The on-demand dining is a game-changer for me. The inflight snacks while you watch movies as you prepare for the night is awesome. I cannot wait to be back on this flight. Your review gives me an incentive to get on this flight again...and again. Great job!

    Emirates offers such a superb A380 business class experience that I can't find anything that justifies the cost of a first class with them - a bit more privacy, shower and caviar. So I'd opt for two Business class flights and wouldn't regret it for a second.
    it is a great review, thank you

    I have travelled a few times with emirates, mostly in business class. It was always a dream to fly the first class experience. My chance came in january this year, did the first class from dubai to auckland, just over 16 hours.
    What a lot of other reviews miss is the experience of the first class lounge. It is simply amazing and a forerunner to what you experience on the flight. Your review captured that. I saw way more staff in the lounge than I saw other passengers.
    The food on board and the attentive service is exceptional. The shower spa is just wow. The first time I've landed after a long haul flight and felt clean and fresh.
    Awesome review.

    Of all the "million RUclips videos" on this topic, yours is the best. Way to go! Here's why. As well as covering all the spectacular amenities that come with this flight, you covered what to me was the most important and obvious point: the service! It's unbelievable and for me was a Major Factor of why the experience was so amazing. Thank you! At last someone described the true essence of the Emirates First Class experience. I don't need to know what someone's take is on "the consistency of the chocolate mousse" served in the FirstClass Lounge. You really got to the essence of the experience. Bravo!

    Last spring break I flew business class from John F Kennedy airport, New York City to Dubai airport and then to Maldives. I flew on the Emirates A380 business class.
    To be perfectly honest after having traveled to Seychelles on Emirates, the flight itself was more exciting for me than the actual destination.
    I personally don’t see any reason to travel on Emirates in first class because of the isolation. It actually makes more sense to be in business class. If you fly with a girlfriend or wife, you would be mostly separated from her. The business class seats are designed for couples And for single travelers. I don’t really need the closed door privacy. You don’t really fly for long enough to actually need to use the shower. If you want to shower, you can simply shower in the lounge. The business class is the best bang for the buck wild. The first class is for those who absolutely want to indulge I don’t mind paying three times as much for a ticket. I don’t need to eat caviar on the flight, nor am I very excited by the more expensive wines. I was more than happy enough with the Moët champagne.
    My next trip is to Bora-Bora and I’m not very excited about it because air Tahiti Nui only has the 787 dreamliner. I prefer the A380.

      Emirates A380 is truly what the adventure is all about! Who cares about the destination at that point? I will say that first class was worth it for miles, but I don’t know if I’ll ever have the cash for that

      You can book the middle seats with a partner and have the divider down. It’s not isolating at all.

      By paying with miles,you really don't feel it,but i fly only business class and it really take a toll on your wallet..since i pay with cash...The better the service on carriers,the more expensive the ticket..US carriers are cheaper because the service,food and drinks can be a hit or miss....Just back from France and flew United Polaris and was a big disappointment...even The Polaris Lounge at IAD was a disaster...

    02K is my favourite seat on the A380. I've got that all the way from Auckland to Amsterdam and back again in a couple of weeks. First Class Lounge in A gates is the best first class lounge IMHO. Exit the lounge directly to the plane is awesome.

    • @PatrickSheaAviation
      @PatrickSheaAviation  11 месяцев назад

      Each of the lounges were a bit different. I felt personally that the B gate lounges were more decorated and still offered boarding without having to enter the main part of the terminal

      @@PatrickSheaAviation yeah, just not as direct as A. C is probably the only ones with no direct access. JFK boarding is also direct from the lounge, which is nice. The entire Emirates experience in first is amazing. Looking forward to my next 24hrs in the air.

      Those other two cabins would be a dream come true. Sadly they have no award availability for the residence and Singapore first is pretty much only bookable with SQ points (which I don’t have 😥). Maybe one day when I’m rich!

    Long time EK regular here (never in first though!). Concourse A was purpose built for A380s so if your flight is on one you do have a better chance of being there. But recently DXB have begun to convert several more gates in B and C to be A380 friendly.
    Though there is one other thing to consider - Concourse A has much larger lounge facilities so the “prestige” flights that tend to have more premium passengers might be prioritized in Concourse A. I’ve done the SFO route many times and usually been pretty lucky with having it at A.
