    a couple of hilarious gems in this one:
    1 - "again, complaining about problems that aren't really problems"
    2 _ "...and there's also just some assorted snack baskets that pretty much came out as non visible in this shot" 🤣 that breakfast looked tasty tho

    Late November 2021, we flew OKC to CDG. This was a combined trip replacing two scheduled for 2020. Our initial flight to CDG was to be from DFW but that route was canceled for a few months. We had secured business class both ways on points, 110k per passenger for both directions. With the DFW route cancelled, we were routed OKC - LGA JFK - CDG. We had five hours to get ourselves from LGA to JFK. It was Flagship Business and the lounges had just recently reopened. We have lounge access with a CC, but the Flagship was special. No complaints about spending 4 hours in it. This was our 7th trip to Europe and first time in business. It spoiled us. The next two trips were PE into CDG and out of DUB and BC to FRA and PE home.

    Nice! Thanks for the walk-thru of the JFK Flagship! I've visited the ones at O'Hare and DFW so far (after reaching Sapphire level) so I've always been curious what the others look like. I want to say that I've been on this AA transcon route and aircraft type, but this would've been years ago and pre-revamp. Great vid as always :)

    I believe that Air Canada has a flight number 1 that I've flown before! Not sure if it's still operating, but if you're still going through the list, could be a fun one to add!

    I'm flying JFK-SFO for the 2nd time soon, if only to get into the flagship dining since it wasn't open the last time. Currently it's only for flagship first passengers. Not sure what they'll do once they bring in the new flagship cabin. You may want to check the airline website regarding admirals club access since a regular domestic first class ticket I don't believe will grant you access.

    • @PatrickSheaAviation
      @PatrickSheaAviation  Год назад +1

      I believe they just changed lounge access rules, so that might make sense. Maybe this year, I’ll get a chance to check that out

    Fancied your review a lot; and yet AA is the airline I dislike the most; my apologies if I offend anybody, but had very bad experiences flying AA, which I HAD to, since I work for an scientific international organization in my country, and they only purchased us tickets on AA to fly to the US for work. Anyhow another great review Patrick. And as you mention adding reviews on other airlines; in the one you flew from Brazil, Azul, there is a particular one there is no video reviews at all, and it is TAAG, Angola Airways which flies from GRU to Luanda. Brilliant review

    1:04, Air Canada from Toronto to Tokyo Haneda, Jetstar from Melbourne to Honolulu, Air New Zealand from JFK to Auckland (the longest flight from the US to New Zealand, 17 hours), Aero Mexico from Mexico city to Madrid and Zipair from Tokyo Narita to Honolulu on flight number 1. Are you gonna fly Air New Zealand's longest flight from JFK to Auckland on a 17 hours on the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner in business, premium or economy class?
