- I joined British Airways A350-1000 inaugural flight from London to Madrid on August 5th 2019. First in the video, the BA Chairman and CEO, Alex Cruz gave some insight of why BA selected the A350 and where it will fly to. Join me to explore the new Business Class cabin (Club World Suite), Premium Economy (World Traveller Plus) and Economy (World Traveller) on the flight to Madrid.
I traveled back in Economy the next day on the BA A350-1000 from Madrid. This video will show you from both perspective of what’s flying the new British Airways A350-1000 like.

Beware on my LHR-MAD flight BA is showcasing certain long haul products (bedding, amenity kit and meal) on this inaugural flight.
First comment!
Thank welcome to Indonesia .Sumba island
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.
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 😂?
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!!!
That is what i love about aviation
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.
coshyno he thanks you for the view that you gave him

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!
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!
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
lol dude bought it for him as a present and he gave it away
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.
@@SamChui you're so kind to think of others.
Give this man some subs
@@SamChui Hope it is to me because i never won anything in life :D

Always great vlog of different airlines & planes
Let’s travel together guys
Sam is loved by this many people
👇👍👍👍
love you
Thank you Sam for bringing us the A350-1000 experience. You keep coming up with good stuff :)
I love the lounges of most of the airport you have shot video.
That A350-1000 airliner is a Home Run. Beautiful!
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 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.
Lovely British Airways 100th Anniversary and A350-1000 release, beautiful aircraft. Thank you so much for sharing!
Great video Sam. Glad you were able to be there for the inaugural and congrats to BA
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.
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👍
too good brother....this is the best part, even before i start viewing sam's video, the appreciation is here...u deserve it bro....thanks again....best wishes to the British Airways A350-1000..........keep flying higher and higher.......
Your videos are very informative and it gives me knowledge. I am seeing it regularly.
The club suite/business class is amazing. The A350 is beautiful 😍😍😍 Hope to fly it and do a review for it too!
Wish they could bring this to Nigeria!
Manuel Olakitan I know right?!
@@SassyFunke Our Air Nigeria is still coming 🤣🤣
Air Nigeria still waiting hope is Air bus 350 or 330 neo, funke l will be waiting for the 350 review
A350 BA, amazing video (been here since 2017)
I use to live near Phoenix Arizona and watching the classic 747 come into Skyharbor was amazing. Such a cool plane.
This is a beautiful plane!!! Sam , you are like a kid in a candy store!!! You are having the time of your life on this inaugural flight!!!!
Awesome! I can’t wait until October1st for BA A350 arrival to YYZ!
Ive been waiting for this video of British Airways A350-1000 From Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Sam fantastic vlog !
I am still finding vlogs I have missed
Great vid, I really enjoy when you hit all sections of the seating in your reviews.
British Airways is my favourite airline to fly with, great video Sam 👍
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
Thank you Matt. You've always kind to me!
I am always travelling with u around all flights in all your videos. Thanks Sam .keep up bro
Love your content. Always feels like I’m on board with you. Safe travels brother 👍🏼
I was last month flying from madrid to Frankfurt on business class. The Iberia lounge is indeed pretty nice 😁
LOL I find it hilarious when he nods his up and down when he talks.
11:36 This **nod** curry **nod** finger **nod** licking **nod** good.
I'm enjoying watching your vlog n learning a lot from you...how I wish I can travel the way you do? The most amazing was the exotic food from all your flights...keep traveling n we will keep on watching!
Have a safe n enjoyable travel Sam! 👍✈️👏
A remarkable story of the inaugural flight...nice video ...
Very much appreciated sir ...that's great to watch
Thank u so much for that wonderful blog
I have been waiting for this.
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Fantastic flight ! British Airways did a great job with the Business class seating.
Wonderful I really enjoy watching your videos well done keep it up
Thanx sam for sharing your experience in BA A 350_1000 very nice bird
Great report sam! Keep up the good work. Your a true inspiration as always
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.
Absolutely excellent video. I too was really lucky to be able to experience the Club World Suite on a crew familiarisation flight from MAD to LHR in October 2019.
I miss Concorde, a real SpeedBird. Anyway good review of a great airplane (at 11:10 this is no champagne, at all)
I love Barajas Airport! My favorite world airport.
You never fail to amaze me with your excellent videos!
great amount of detail work...
BA put forward a decent crew there, very professional and friendly. The steward serving Sam in Club was outstanding.
Finally a business class in BA that makes sense.... 😅
Hi, very good morning,-again we are enjoying the experience through the video, good going👍
Brilliant video! Thanks Sam!
The CEO is funny, we are fully commited to first class and then presents a new aircraft without one...
flying_scubadiver lmao
Business Class IS First Class on many airlines.
Man...
You are the first celebrity international travel
I love the crews manners! Fantastic cabin service
The sound of the engines at full throttle is fantastic
How cute is flight attendant serving the champagne! 😍
Sam your content is so cool now! Each video gets better and better - they are very inspiring. Will you be travelling to Australia any time soon?
thank you Matthew. The problem is to split myself up, so many destinations to go to, but definitely Australia at some point next 12 months.
@@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
Great video man...Carlos did a good job in expressing my appreciation for your work...thanks again!
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!
I was surprised to see no water cannon salute either in London nor in Madrid upon arrival.
0:11 Eden Hazard serving you haha
😂😂😂
Your video very inspired me and as always i enjoy it a lot .
Thank you for always making very interesting video !
i flew on that beautiful aircraft,British Airways,London to Boston,amazing aircraft and amazing service of the cabin crew,thumbs up!
I want to become a BA pilot when I'm older. I've just come from one of their BA flying experience day
I wish you all the best of luck.
Isaac Aryee thanks. I greatly appreciate it. Best of luck to you too
Don't need pilot in the future....cars, planes or trains will drive without pilot or driver! "The future is already here"
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.
Maaan. This winter i will fly in Qatar's A350-1000. I am so excited about it.
As always Sam, great stuff nice airplane. Great flying with you
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.
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!!
wow! LOVE THIS LIVERY ON THE A350-1000
i love that engine is so quiet...love British airway and it's crews!
Thank you Sam, best Airline content on RUclips
This is literally calling me poor in 27 different languages
DankMemes what an original comment
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 😄
You just WOW and AMAZE me Sam. I'm really into Aviation as well. Absolutly love the videos Keep up the great work Have a great weekend. Congratulations on your first British Airways A350 flight!!.
Alex.
Thank you Sam for very interesting movie, nice :-)
I relay enjoined watching it on TV big screen, amazing aircraft A 350 and Congratulation British Airways for 100 university!
All the best, and all safe flights

A350 is walking around the airport...
Edit:
Other aircrafts: *Oh my goodness!*
great vid Sam
finally BA moving out of its ancient business class, good for them!
What a amazing musics and scenes !
I had a feeling you would be on the first British Airways A350 flight! Great content, thank you Sam
13:08 no respect for Sam Chui but he shouldn’t give away a gift from a fan and give it to another fan
bro thats the dude who gave it to him ur buggin
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
Walter Santos . Makes a change , he’s usually flirting with the men .
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.
@@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
Damn I've been after that a350 model lol 😂
Amazing, I wanted to see it on Flight radar. Missed it! Hope you enjoyed it!
Hi Sam
Double the review, to Madrid and back. You gave a real good report on the two cabin classes.
I am so happy BA have upgraded their business class.
Kind regards
DS
Hopefully replaces the 777 on Hong Kong route! Then it will be A350 and A380 on the same route!
"Oh it's you guys again" 😂
dude your videos are amazing. been a lifelong aviation geek and envy your job !!
Looks like you had a great time...The crew was really nice to you.....Fly safe always
you should tell the captain to say, "joining me today are .... and Mr.Sam Chui"
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
Love your videos , I honestly think you are the best I’m your class. Def consider making more holiday vlogs, loved the Morocco one. Keep it uo
You know why u outshine other aviation vloggers......bcoz u r chivalrous and so down to earth😊😊👌🏻
How much do you guys loved the BA a350-1000? 🛫
Very much it's a great airplane with an Excellent safety record!!!!
BA is one of my most favourite airlines!!!
I’d like to see all British airways short haul to be as good as this XD
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).
Awesome Sam! Great video and great plane. I flew the 900 last week with Finnair, HEL-NRT and it was great.
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!
