    I've seen countless flight reviews but yours is undeniably one of the best. Great editing, nice perspectives, steady shots, no unnecessary stuff and still honest. Would love to see more of that. Flew the D-ABYT last year in Upper Deck business class, which was also quite an experience... but First Class is still something different ;)

    WOW! The Lufthansa B747-8 FIRST CLASS look simply STUNNING! Also you got the retro 747-8 D-ABYT 😮 STAR-STUCK for sure. 👍I cannot wait till I fly with Lufthansa on their 747-8 from Chicago O’Hare to Frankfurt in ONLY 3 DAYS! However on the 747 there was no way I could pass up the UPPER DECK seats so I’m flying in Biz Class! 😊
    Cheers 🥂 My friend!
    SIMPLY STUNNING!

    I would like to see more flight reviews. I really liked your editing, having a more upbeat feeling than most flight reviewers. One thing I always am most interested in from trip reports is the unusual flights or lesser seen seating like LH 747-8 first class.

  • @bandsalat8995
    @bandsalat8995 4 месяца назад +1

    There’s two features about sitting inside the 747‘s nose that no other aircraft can offer you:
    1. The fuselage is angled, so from seats 1A and 1K, you get the feeling of looking forward.
    2. You are actually sitting in front of the pilots!

    Coby is "The Dude"; good video. The seat does look a little below par compared to alternative modern day offerings but you're right; it's about the all round inflight experience....that's something everyone imagines when one conjures thoughts of travelling first-class.

      Thank you for sharing the First Class Service on LufthansaYes, there has been the Porsche car selections as well. The vans are still very nice. You made me laugh when I heard you talk about not having any liquor in the morning but mimosas or orange juice and champagne is fine with morning breakfast. The 747s are still beautiful aircraft to fly on. I miss flying them even from my former airline!!😊 Yes, I use to set up First Class service on my former airline and again it was nice.😊😊

    Very nice and there is another operator out of the West Coast towards Asia that has the same plane Korean Air via Seoul Incheon. Here in the east coast the same plane you fly runs the 6:10 p.m. departure from Newark to Frankfurt Germany LH403. If you have to choose between these two B747-830 LH or UA B777-322er which one would you would you pick overall?

    @tinawitte420 27 дней назад

    How to have the longest flight (afaik) in lufthansa's repertoire in first class for about 2000EUR: Buy the Bundle&Go Miles package, currently 150000miles for 1750EUR, and book Buenos Aires to Frankfurt with an inner-german connection flight as much after touchdown as possible(to maximise your stay in first class terminal in frankfurt), for about 1350000miles + about 150eur in fees, equals roughly 1750 total and you still have 15000 miles left on your miles and more account. 🙂
    @Coby Explanes: Nice review, thank you! How did you like the Three Body Problem? I loved the triology for being a very original way of science fiction, and read all Cixin's book after that trilogy.

    As I rarely get to fly the 747 but the one time in the last 20 years I flew United First there was practically no where to put my carryon. It was infuriating that unlike business it had to be stored over another passenger. I did not see you show anything about that so I wonder what storage there was for your carryon?

  • @DuaneHeath1973

    Considering the poor reputation that Lufthansa have for those turning right this particular first class experience looks as good as some of the middle Eastern carriers, it shows that Lufthansa are still able to provide a superior product and once the new fist class cabins are fitted they could offer the best FC product within Europe.

  • @felixchong2516
    @felixchong2516 4 месяца назад +1

    As a crew member, I disagree with you about turbulence. The reason why 1st class is at the front of the plane is due to the comfort when the plane hits turbulence. At the back of the plane, the cabin will shake violently while the front of the plane is less shaky. At landing, the passengers at the front of the plane will experience a smooth ride while the passengers at the back will feel the "bump" when the plane hits the ground. Next time choose the last row of seats on the plane to find out how bad you feel during turbulence.

    I don't think people who make these RUclips flight reviews consider the affect on other passengers. I was sat behind you on this flight from Frankfurt to Houston on 25/8. Your constant loud monologue to camera and finger clicking throughout the flight was incredibly irritating. Even the flight crew told you to stop filming in the end. May be in future F reviews you should cover the affect people like yourself have on cabin ambience.

    Hate to tell you, but any regular business class has 'dine on demand'
    All you have to do is ASK.
    In fact, it is even said in the menus provided of all the business class flights I have taken.

    One of the best things about flying KLM...
    They explicitly say....
    NO VIDEOING ON THE AIRCRAFT

  • @discofun
    @discofun 4 месяца назад +2

    As someone who only flies Business or better on long hauls...
    People that leave their window shades open just to make videos are the most hated on an aircraft.
    Worse than crying babies.
    People WANT window shades DOWN.
    Do you think that middle aisle people want shades open? NO THEY DO NOT.
    NO ONE enjoys someone shooting content.
    You are up and around making content is an incredible disturbance.
    When I see someone llke you on an aircraft, I tell a flight attendant and they are instantly... shut down.
    BE AWARE THAT PEOPLE HATE YOU FOR FILMING ON AN AIRCRAFT.

    It was not that long of a flight. I just wear a pair of comfortable jeans when I fly 15 hours to Tokyo.

    That seems like such a waste.
