Giveaway Link: gleam.io/55fHQ/british-airways-a350-model-giveaway Beware on my LHR-MAD flight BA is showcasing certain long haul products (bedding, amenity kit and meal) on this inaugural flight.
Sam, I enjoy your videos. However, you seem to give only positive reviews, which makes me question your impartiality. As one of your subscribers, I want to know both the good and the bad.
For his final flight before retirement from Pan Am in July,1987,my father Captain Harvey Beebe Jr flew from JFK airport to barajas international airport in Madrid. His first officer flew the airplane to Madrid because he wanted to make the final flight back to JFK airport in New York. This takes me back to that flight. Captain Beebe got a landing so smooth that the tires didn't even squeal. No one even knew they'd landed. That's how you retire!!!
Mr Chui, ever since I started watching your videos (been a long time now) it was a dream of mine to meet you no matter where and when, let alone on an inaugural flight!!!! It was a great honour and you are genuinely an amazing person, so approachable, always smiling and extremely humble on and off the camera. I thank you from all my heart for featuring me in this video and I hope to meet you again in the near future! Always and forever a big fan of yours, Carlos El Hajj
he gave away your gift, even if he asked you, it shows he didn't want it. Sam chui is very ungrateful, he will use the excuse that he didn't deserve but its only a excuse. He doesn't care.
I think the usual club Europe meal is less substantial - this meal has probably been exaggerated somewhat as it's the first flight with lots of bloggers etc
John Smith Don’t kid yourself. Upper Class is their brand for business class just as Club World on BA. It’s priced and booked as a business class product
Lucky Man, one of the world's top Aviation Bloggers now, happy that you are living your dream, congratulations on 1.3 Million Subscribers, I haven't watched you for a long while anyways keep going!
Congrats to British Airways to its wonderful A350-1000!! WOW!! I love BA :) Another freaking awesome and very interesting report Sam!! Huge like from me :) Cheers Matt
LOL. I don't quite feel I deserved the model as I've already been spoiled and flew the new plane. So with his permission, let's give away to someone who may be less fortunate.
Thank you for the great and efficient video sharing Sam! You could have split them into two tbh. I love how clear, calm, confident and polite you are when you speak, keep the good work! And I hope I can try out this fleet very soon!
I felt the same imagine buying someone a gift and they turnaround and give it to a complete stranger just to get more likes on social media... Not good just appreciate it even if you don't want it. At least he wasn't flirting with the female staff this time

@@SamChui fair enough Sam thanks for replying and explaining cheers I still hate you but that's 100% jealousy nothing personal I've followed you for years loving your photos on Airliners.net. Cheers
MR CHUI when you go on these long haul flights you get all fans watching your videos and intgraming you. facebook and twitter you. must be a celeberity in the flying skies Congratluations sam chui
Man I love British airways it's a great airline and it's epic and one of my all time favourite airlines ever and I always love it heart and soul and I've flown and enjoyed on their flights and loved and admired the cabin crew and food and comfort and have one of the best in flight entertainment systems ever with lots of great choices and boarding music is great too!!!!! And they have a large fleet and a very strong aviation heritage!!!! Love BA with all my heart and the United Kingdom my favourite country everand I'm proud to be British and BA has won many awards!!!!! British airways- To fly to Serve!!!
@@kurko38 I know it's your opinion I respect that for me and others British airways is the best airline ever and my most favourite!!! Never flown on Asiana Airlines that south Korean airline but I'd love to
From Norway I really enjoy your videos. I am so impressed. Have done a lot of flying myself, but I wish I could have your spirit and fantastic personality (on my flights) . Keep up the good work I love your videos👍
3:12 - I felt the same emotion when one of the stuarts named Roy from Singapore offered me a teddy bear with the shirt showing "First to fly A350ULR" , some playing cards and a pen with the SQ logo when I took a tour of their a380 while flying to Singapore. But I kept it because it was one thing to let me remember my first time with Singapore Airlines instead of giveaway.
Yeahhh! I’m Spanish so I’ve been to Madrid many times and the T4 and T4S terminals are amazing!! Great video!! Loved it. I’ll be flying with Iberia’s A350 from Madrid to NYC on October, can’t wait! I love Iberia... they’re a great airline, you should try them.
@@SamChui Sounds good Sam! Would you consider doing a review on Royal Brunei? I think they are best priced carrier between Australia + Dubai, with very good service
I just can't stop watching your videos Sam. Your reviews are fantastic and as a plane lover, the A350-1000 has now replaced the B777-300ER as my favorite plane!
chris hayes considering this aircraft was just purchased it’ll be flying for around 30 years meaning we will still be using our current technology in the future...you’re gonna have to wait a lot longer till you see fully automated aircraft ruling the skies
chris hayes I'll be retired by the time planes might require only 1 pilot. Even 'driverless' trains require a conductor on board. It's best not to jump on planes when we haven't even got super reliable self driving cars yet.
You know BA pulled out all the stops to make this flight look amazing, and the food really did look amazing. I doubt it will be anywhere near as good on a regular flight, but who knows 😄
I'm not a fan of Airbus planes but I must say this A350-1000 plane is one hell of an engineering masterpiece, just take a good look at the wing tip. wooow!!!
It's so interesting to watch videos from just before 2020, with people like the BA CEO talking so positively about future plans. They're all so cheerful and confident, completely oblivious to the unprecedented airline industry crisis just around the corner because of a pandemic...
Wouldn't we all, it would be interesting to see what Sam makes of the industry trailing seat pitch on British Airways mi-haul a32N's (less pitch than RyanAir) or the 777-200's they use eg to BKK (broken IFE, worn seating, panels literally falling off and all filthy!) BA marketing is still world class, sadly the actual products, not so much. The image is you will get the shiny new product / brand but reality for over 90% of customers is a faded poor quality version of what they offered 10-28years ago. eg. the over a decade it took them to install the 2nd gen. premium econ seat (still not convinced the entire fleet is done).
Always look forward to your videos. Who knows what behind the scenes is like but short of being in the Rolling Stones,,, to me you have the best job in the world!!! Keep up the good work.
Nice to see the Collins Super Diamond business class seat with doors and a shoulder seatbelt. This is such a practical, spacious and comfortable seat and will make me consider BA in future.
I've been on two a350-1000's before and on both landings, the plane shook like it did in the BA a350-1000 landing. I don't know if the rough landings are because of a weird landing gear design, (the a350 has a flat landing gear design, most other planes have a tilted design, for example, the 777). Love your videos, Sam!!!
@@Horizon301. Could be, but I flew on Qatar who had the plane for over a year, so, I don't know. But I searched on youtube and almost every single a350-1000 landing was rough like the one in sam's video. I guess you could be right because the first a350-1000 wasn't delivered to Qatar too long ago.
Very excited to try out the a350 later this week on the same route in economy class. Planning on making a video documenting the experience, it’d be awesome if you could check it out Sam!!
Lovely aircraft ....... YOU ARE AMAZING Sam....... always most interesting videos you are producing to keep us up-to-date in the flying daily life ........ God Bless you and wish you always, SAFE JOURNEYS AND HAPPY LANDINGS, whenever you are in the skies and where ever you are.

How Many country you have visit. Beacase you travel a lot.
Sam Chui Hi Sam. Speaking of Madrid, have you ever reviewed an Iberia flight?
I took a screenshot of the a350 taxiing next to the retro 747. In 40 years it will be a memorable picture
great!
more like one year
"in 40 years" you said 😂?

That was so sweet of that guy to give you the model airplane! I also notice BA has stepped up their catering and food presentation big time.
chicken curry has been served for a while, very. tasty though
I think the usual club Europe meal is less substantial - this meal has probably been exaggerated somewhat as it's the first flight with lots of bloggers etc
@@londonALI The crew are training how to use the ovens and serving long haul meals before they use the aircraft for long haul.
@@londonALI no its the catering service by BA it already is available on some of the existing routes
When you are on board the latest aircraft in the fleet, but a 747 still makes your heart beat harder! Awesome video!
You should review the Virgin A350-1000 and compare their business class product with British Airway's
Dev GOPALAN probably not a good idea since he was paid by BA for promotion
Dev GOPALAN yes I very much agree my parents work for virgin and I have seen pictures of the rig for the A350
Except Virgin don't have a business class, they have upper class. The 2 carriers are using the plane for different markets.
John Smith Don’t kid yourself. Upper Class is their brand for business class just as Club World on BA. It’s priced and booked as a business class product
Yeah, that would be awesome to have both products reviewed by Sam
Does anyone want to see him in real life when we are travelling?
Also have a great day!
I would love to see him while traveling, but I get kicked out of first class whenever I try to.
no
Some day I'll run into Sam checking out the peanuts on SWA on the 42 min. flight from SNA to LAS........
I did on 27 July at LCY
DWayve I did
What an incredible experience!! The aircraft is beautiful💖 Thank you for taking us along!!!
Thanks Sam, for taking us with you as always. Wish I could fly first class but for now we can just watch you and enjoy
3:15 , Wow! Carlos what a hero! That was REALLY nice of you to show appreciation and on behalf of the viewers we thank you for showing Sam some love!
I wonder how many passports he has, flying so much, must fill up quick
Very true.....I have only Two ...after 15 years of traveling....lol
Regards from Solomon Islands
Many countries now offers electronic border entries. This means you don’t need a stamp on your passport.
Ive run through 4 in the past decade
And I probably don’t even travel as much as he does
Thanks for many country has E gate, there is no more stamps on many entrance.
I was last month flying from madrid to Frankfurt on business class. The Iberia lounge is indeed pretty nice 😁
I flew on the negus livery 747-400 from cape town to london in april. Was so excited to fly on one of the retro livery aircraft.
That A350-1000 airliner is a Home Run. Beautiful!
Let’s travel together guys

Meeting a chairman or ceo of a popular airline like British or Qantas, would really make my year and expanding my aviation knowledge and career.

BA marketing is still world class, sadly the actual products, not so much. The image is you will get the shiny new product / brand but reality for over 90% of customers is a faded poor quality version of what they offered 10-28years ago. eg. the over a decade it took them to install the 2nd gen. premium econ seat (still not convinced the entire fleet is done).

I use to live near Phoenix Arizona and watching the classic 747 come into Skyharbor was amazing. Such a cool plane.
I Would’ve Thought The A350 Would Do Long Flights Like Heathrow To Hong Kong Or LA
They start on shorter routes to get enough landings for the pilots to train them properly. The longer routes will follow soon
In the video, the chief executive explained why....watch it!
Its a crew training flight but it will do long flights like that to Dubai, Toronto, Bengaluru and Tel Aviv
Sam Chui Thanks I Will Replay That Bit
They're flying to Toronto which is a long route I guess
