INSIDE Lufthansa First Class on the Boeing 747
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Join me inside Lufthansa's First Class onboard their Boeing 747. Starting at the airport, in a private luxury terminal. Next i'm driven over to the Queen of the Skies in a high performance Porsche. Whilst onboard I'll enjoy caviar, a medium rare steak and a special German desert of Gingerbread. After putting my PJs on (complete with a scarf!) i'll settle into the 5* bed arriving refreshed into the United States.
As with all my trip reports, you can expect a fully comprehensive review of all elements of the First Class experience. I'll showcase what it's really like to fly this exclusive product from Frankfurt, Germany over to Chicago in the USA.
I’m getting quite addicted to these vlogs. They are terrific.
This man has GOT to be a Hobbit with how much he can eat and enjoy, while not getting too plump! I love how excited he gets about stuff and the thorough, honest reviews.
@@t.r4849 WTF are you talking about? These first class flights charge anywhere between $4,000 to $20,000 a seat! Champagne and caviar should be minimum requirements for those prices, much less good food and great service. BTW - homophobic and misogynistic much? Crawl back into your cave.
@@t.r4849 you sound jealous :)
to be fair this was a 9 hour flight, so that was an insane amount of food I'd be popping at the seams
lol yeah! I watched like 2,5 vids and most of the time he's just eating!!
@@zenpotato6162 i would definitely would be
Much more satisfying when a reviewer like this indulges in all the treats, alcohol and non-vegan choices. Great job.
I loved that he took a bath and had a morning whiskey tasting. So hilarious. This is a guy I’d have a drink w at 9 am!
Just started watching your videos recently and they are amazing. No sugarcoating and the videos are very straight to the point.
Because of you, my partner and I are flying BA Buisness/First to our Wedding UK to US. Really love your reviews, they are short snappy to the point and they follow a nice flow.
The Supreme leader wishes you and your partner well.
@@kimjong-un9535 Hah! Thanks Pal
Business or First ?
Enjoy the rip off.
The only way to travel -BA Business/First!
An epic experience, from the start to the end! Thanks and great review as always!
Guys are on here saying he’s a “fairy” but he’s just a dude who appreciates the finer things. Nothing wrong with that. Love this channel
And who can actually AFFORD the finer things.
I had the exact same seat, on the exact same flight, to the exact same destination (though mine was back in 2018) and can concur I thought the overall experience was very very good. And I loved the first class terminal experience as well though I just had a shower, and not a bath; maybe next time I’ll try that instead. And finally I got a black duck too!
Great review, keep them coming!
1.5 month’s salary… or 6 months rent in a dirty apartment, is it worth it?
@@1mol831 Not out of my pocket, however my Company at the time was OK to pay as actually it was cheaper than a standard business seat 🙀
@@mattlau5909 th how does that work?
is this a luxury only plane or was there economy seats on this flight?
are you special now?
I remember working at the miami airport checking the lufty and other airlines food carts for safety reasons. Very nice to see what first class has to offer. Hopefully I get a chance to enjoy that lovely experience as you did. Spectacular video!
This looks fantastic, and definitely something everyone should experience once in their life, but when the fresh rose came up I couldn't help but think what incredible resources go into making the trip memorable for one person. Sure, it's ridiculously expensive so it's something 99.9% of the world will never experience but DAMN what a use of resources.
Glad to see that you were actually allowed to use the first class terminal this time. I'm actually flying Lufty's 747 later this year and glad to see your vid as a "preview"
Another exceptional flight experience and to experience the 748 plus the renowned ground experience including the Porsche limo - incredible! They absolutely looked after you so well from start to finish…. Don’t take too long in booking another LH F 😉
Hi Will. Love seeing the 747-800. I'm so glad that Lufthansa is still operating them. Great review. 👍💯 Lufthansa First Class checks all of the boxes for me except the lack of a privacy door. Once you've experienced being in your" little cocoon" it's rather hard to go back to "being on show" while sleeping. 🤣. I do understand that some passengers prefer the lack of a door as they feel claustrophobic in a suite. To each his own, of course. Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding week.
10 years ago Lufthansa had the best first class in my opinion. I can only imagine how great it is today.
If I'm flying to Berlin, I wanna be on Lufthansa
Thanks , for sharing your Super Splendid trip aboard Lufthansa. I see the beautiful & tasteful menu selection.All Blessings to you & the team.Amen! 🙏❤🙏🤗
Love this flight! This & Q suites are my absolute favorite flights I've taken in the past year. However, I do agree that it's a shame about the privacy. I'll have to check out the first class terminal next time!
Yes, but this is only a bit better in some details and maybe double or more the price than of a QSuite
@@bekind2475 you are what we call in the wild a karen
honestly - wish your videos were longer (and I never say that about any youtube videos), but I guess that's why they are so good! Whisky tasting at 9am sounds like a splendid idea to me.
I’ve never done anything other than economy but one day I hope I would get to experience something like this - wow!!
These kinds of videos help me choose what airline to choose for best experience and brightens my day keep up doing the great work!
Great review. My wife and I are doing LH first in October to JNB in 1A and 1K. I get that the privacy is not great for a single traveller but I guess shouldn't be a problem for us. This will be our first 1st so looking forward to the whole shebang. We've made sure to get an early flight to FRA to make full use of the 1st Class Terminal. We're taking Swiss on the way back (A340) so will be interesting to compare.
And which one was better? Swiss or LH?
@@xqfwfja1000 I would honestly have to say Lufthansa, but I think mainly due to the poor Swiss catering out of JNB and also that we got to spend 10 hours in the first class terminal at Frankfurt. I intend to try it again one day, but will do it the other way around to make the comparison complete.
I flew that flight only in reverse and on United. It was my only first class experience on a big plane. Loved being able to lie down. Looked like the best way to fly. I was on my way to Madrid and on the way from Chicago to Madrid I stopped in Brussels on the way there and Frankfort on the way back. Cool videos. That first class experience looked clean and comfy. Can't believe you were able to take a bath before your flight.
Lufthansa is a fabulous airline. Thank goodness they have still got the 747. Apart from the A380 nothing else equals it. It's so reassuring to be in a plane with four engines.
Much better video than of late, i say when videos are bad but also good, this one hits the spot as you say.
Good work
"A British man was found slumped facedown on the tarmac, reeking of whiskey & mumbling something about odd-coloured ducks. Authorities are still trying to identify him".
I get full just watching the food and drink..... lol...... that bath in the airport was awesome!!!!!
Ahh, Will! You have the coolest job ever! This is something I have always wanted to do. Good work and keep them coming :-)
Will I would love to see your earthbound fine dining because you make some great selections in the sky. Enjoyed the video as usual. You have a way of making it feel like you’re sharing, almost educating us, instead of bragging like other channels. Keep up the good work.
I'm absolutely loving your videos. I came across them during lockdown and watched most of your previous ones.
Keep up the good work! One day I will get to fly first class. I would totally turn up at the lounge a full 12 hours before my flight to make the most of the experience.
But, for now I will just continue to enjoy your videos on RUclips.
Was this done before most airlines ditched the Boeing 747?
Thank you for these lovely reviews 😁 Your videos make me happy
You never disappoint,Will.Great video and I'm so happy to see Lufthansa doing well.Keep it up.Cheers!
I’ve flown first class on a 747 KLM to the Netherlands from Canada what a hoot, treated so well. My favorite airline now. I was amazed how fast your in the air with that amazing plane.
KLM doesn’t offer first class….just business.
@@frakundo back then they did.
Great content keep it up. Would love to see you do premium products on some lesser known airlines (finnair? air canada? el al?). Also, aside from champagne, some of these first class flights have killer still wines. As a wine lover I would be interested to hear more about those sometimes even though I love the champagne reviews.
Thanks for sharing the last of 747 first class at the nose below flight deck ! Used to love working there before the pandemic delivering such premium products ! I miss 747 !
Very nice! I see that nothing has changed since my last one on LH First Class - and also not since when I reviewed it, either. And that's great! Well done, Will! - and thank you for the not-so-clickbaity headline ("brutal honest sitting on a plane"😂)! It makes it so much nicer right away! - It's just so sad that Business, PE and Economy of my national airline are so bad compared to the whole competition, while First is really world class...
I can’t blame you about being excited about the Porsche Cayenne. I just had one built this year and I love it!! It’s just sexy!! ❤
I’ve been fortunate to be on LH first class several times and it’s one of the best, if not the best F classes outside of the Asian and middle eastern airlines. Their ground/transit/boarding service for F class is excellent. Swiss first is also very good. BA forget it.. terrible. I’ve not been on La premier yet, will try that soon.
But, in terms of onboard product and food/bev quality I’d have to say SQ, Qatar and Emirates first class are a step above.
Loved the shadow of the 747 during the landing sequence. Good show!
LH First Class is one of the best first class experiences out there. Right up there with SQ. They make connecting extremely easy.
I love how you describe your food
Light, delicate, fresh, filling just so entertianing
Great vid but I think that I'd have expected more from 1st class
Out of interest, what else would you have expected in First?
@@Trektrendy I'm not really sure, there seemed to be a lack of opulence and although I'm sure that the food tasted good, the presentation looked a bit sloppy
you do what i can only dream of! flying around the world in first class must be amazing!
Thanks for an informative video. I disagree that this “holds its own” with other premium products. The Q Suite is superior , as are several other first class products.
Thanks for watching Richard. Not sure I agree on QSuites being superior though. They may have a door but have much smaller ‘real estate’ with a cubby for your feet. It’s for sure the best Business Class but it’s not in the same league when you take into account the ground service, food (caviar/steak), bedding and service (just 8 pax) you get on Lufthansa F. Which FC products do you think overall offer a better experience?
@@Trektrendy sure the details might be better but the price?? Lufthansa is 2-3 times more expensive that a qsuite . Definitely not worth it.
Great video as always .I remember having a bath in the Cathay Pacific wing first lounge before 16 hours in Cathay F to jfk. I had to pinch myself as I was there sipping champagne in a bubble bath. Great memory
So my question is how do you get all this money for the flights? Is it ad revenue, sponsors, RUclips revinine, do you use miles, do you get the flights for cheaper or are you just rich
(Ignore the typos)
Da. go figure
I've never flown Lufthansa First Class ( or any 1st Class). But we have enjoyed Lufthansa Business Class. Definitely worth it. Great video.
7:50
Doesn't sound like first class isn't such a treat unless you just want to eat sleep and drink!
I'll pass!
747 will always be Queen of the Skies!
I've always wanted to fly on the Queen.
Looks PHENOMENAL!
It is a very dense aircraft. There is almost zero turbulence and it feels very solid in the sky when flying. Definitely try to fly on one if you can.
Mate I enjoy the reviews but the lack of transparency on how you are able to be flying these airlines in 1st class is becoming more and more of a gripe of mine. Ad revenue doesn’t match up to the “advertised” price on the Skyscanner screenshot you’ve posted, and my previous comments on videos regarding the same subject go unanswered. Why not disclose fully if you pay for the flights, perhaps if they’re gifted or if you’re using miles etc? Even if you’re actually paying for them for the astronomically high prices and running things at a loss to get the viewership up, then why not say this? It would add so much to the review in my opinion.
Why does it matter to you?
Most of the RUclipsrs fly with miles, if you know Wich card to get you can actually get some pretty fucking great deals, some have incredible points rewards that you can use in travel, but a answer from him would be appreciated
It doesn't matter. May I suggest you find another hobby 🤔
@@dawsonjeit matters cause man’s tryna do the same thing as this guys doing😂
Prolly just uses miles and youtube money, like sponsors
Love every video brother! Keep up the great work and remember it’s not work if you love what you do! And we are all watching 🙏
It's always a good day when you release a new video!
flying the 747 is always awesome doesn't matter where you see it. Long live the queen!(awesome video like always)
My airline (Air Koryo) is planning to buy 10 747-400s. Can't wait!!
@@kimjong-un9535 😂
I nearly missed this video, because I was watching your previous video.
Most enjoyable.
i’m binging these videos so much recently
Great video again - many thanks. You love your food - whisky tasting at 9.00am... BRILLIANT
the meal and bed set up magnificent…the scenary too kudos
I see this plane each time I travel. I hope to fly first class on this plane soon. Thanks for the review.
New to channel and absolutely love it. Even thinking about getting a pair of Tims
Glad you got your bucket list ticked off with one more awesome experience!
Nice touch bringing the ducks in for a quick swim.
Thanks for letting us dreamers come along for the ride. Very cool video.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Just started watching and already have to comment. You picked my seat in the LH First Class Terminal! Brilliant!
"of course me being me I never get carried away" made me laugh my guts out. ufff... you are a funny guy you know ;)
I love the idea of pajamas with a scarf - very helpful in air-conditioned spaces
I will definitely fly first class on Lufthansa one day, this review video is absolutely insane and I LOVE IT
I got to fly Lufthansa once from America to Munich....I'd only ever been on American companies before... It was a level of comfort and service I had never experienced anywhere, even just in coach.
The First Class Lounge is fantastic. Closed for the time being are the cigar lounge with self-pour whiskey and the buffet. Not too bad since you've still got the bar and table service as backup. Those ducks are coveted collectors items of many frequent flyers. They change frequently. Gotta collect them all!! :)
Love that a 747 is still providing top service.
As a German, I am quite pleased that you had a nice flight with Lufthansa; I would agree to your critics, and don't ever hold back with it. The kinder you are, the more kindness you will get - I know what I'm talking about for having been a call center agent with good reputation. I enjoyed your review and like to close with: Wir würden uns freuen, Sie bald wieder in Deutschland begrüßen zu dürfen. Wir wünschen angenehme Reise und - bleiben Sie gesund!
Always a great product! I’ll be doing this again during summer. Can’t wait!
Bet you can't wait - it's such an awesome experience :)
I guess I could never make videos like this, because omg, I could never take a bath. I think the last time I took a bath, I was 3.... that was 34 years ago. That being said, I do love actually watching the flights, and seeing how comfortable they make you when you spend enough
William, first of all, let me congratulate you for an astonishing detailed honest channel. Second of all, I see that you enjoy your food very much, and the food looks delicious . I’d love for you to film a bit more of you actually enjoying the food.
Love it! I would be floored with the amount you drank!
I watched your Air France video and I'm officially saying this beats Air France now your own terminal and the queen of the skies!!!
I am a new follow and have really really enjoyed these videos! I am just confused as to how this man doesn’t have 1M followers! Your videos are amazing ❤
Will you seriously cheer up my Monday mornings when I see your new vids. Keep em coming mate! Another quality review 👍🏼🤟🏼
I need to win the lottery to fly 1st class! What a wonderful experience a hot bath and drinking champagne wow that breakfast looks lovely 😊 and stepping onto that plane ✈️ would be a dream to me! And more champagne and caviar gosh it looks good and a steak to die for what a plane ✈️ it looked great! X
That flight was epic Mr.Trendy! And wow, almost 90k subs!👍✈️
Thanks so much for watching and commenting Diane :)
Love your videos man I watch all of them, your so underrated
Breakfast whisky slammers!!! Love it
I think it's funny when reviewers meticulously judge super expensive travel stuff like this like i don't care if it's bad I'd still be completely amazed by it every time
Finally an English speaker who say "porsche" the right way.
You are the best airline channel
This is my favorite 1st class video so far.
Love the ducks and the sound effects
Great review mate. The charm here is the 747 - get it done before it’s gone, folks!
Bravo! Glad....you took advantage of the spirits!
Aside from loving the videos, I finally bought my own pair of Tim's!
It's awesome that you got to experience 1st class 747 product. I'm just sorry you had to go to Chicago to do it.
Thanks for doing this video. Lufthansa is on my first class dream bucket list!
I cannot bring myself to remove from my RUclips homepage the video of you looking back toward the camera while lying down wearing your stylish Lufthansa PJs and scarf. It right up there with Colbert lying down in his business suit giving a come hither look :)
All of that looks amazing! Thanks for the video.
Like the posh setting looks really elegant and clean
Lufthansa to Chicago has always been epic.
That Dalmore King Alexander is great… and Glenfarclas is my first love, actually had that 21… good choices there!
Having flown on Lufthansa since Munich's old main airport was Riem to the South of lthe City in the past century, I was reminded of what I miss....
Those hot minted towels before landing to wherever
'I Don't know much about whiskey'
DON'T have ice with a Single Malt as many consider it dilutes the high quality flavour.
Nice videos, I'm hooked.
amazing video as always!!I really like your reviews its honest and very good keep up the good work!
It was crazy the way you were able to see the shadow of the nose of the plane out of your window when landing. Great review!
Them Slippers look like game changers!
