ANA The Room | World's BEST Business Class In The Sky
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- It’s time for me to once again leave Bangkok and fly to America to visit friends and family for a few weeks. What better way than to try flying the best business class in the sky with a bedroom! ANA The Room is amazing! Join me for this 17 hour journey as I share ANA Business Class, ANA The Room, and several lounges on this lengthy journey from Thailand to the United States of America. The Room is just incredible, it feels more like first class than business class. All Nippon Airways has really outdone themselves with The Room. This business class seat is big enough for two people AND has doors. For the price I paid (will share that ass well) this was a phenomenal value. Come along as I sample food and drink in lounges, and in both of these business class flights on my way to the USA.

I flew business class ANA airways as well, and it was also a phenomenal experience.
What a difference between US airlines vs. Japanese. One of the biggest differences is the flight attendants. The Japanese are just so friendly, beautiful, and efficient.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. The attendants are just awesome!
I agreed . Love ANA
Yah it’s great, especially when you compare prices to other airlines.
Wow🎉, nice fly. You look good wearing this blue blazer
Thanks! I really like this color
Wow. You know how to travel in style, Khun Serg. I usually take the same flights. Have fun in California. You will miss the beginning of the rainy season in Thailand but the rain will be here waiting for you when you return 😊
He he yes I sure did miss the start of rainy season. However I will be back on a few weeks.
@@LifewithSerg We await your safe return in Bangkok, Khun Serg. Be safe and good luck with the super high inflations in the Bay Area and the rest of America. Thank you for this video. I usually take ANA between Tokyo and Bangkok, but take a US airline from Tokyo back to SFO. I once treated myself to business class from Tokyo to SFO on a US airline; I was so disappointed with the service. Take care, Khun Serg.
Brother, you returned to America to visit your family,you must miss your family a lot, brother, how long has it been since you saw them,You must have missed American food,But I was very happy that you went to visit your family,Of course, how long will you stay and then you will return to Thailand? But I am happy to see you now in the video. 😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I will be in the US for almost a month. It’s great to see friends and family!
@LifewithSerg glad to hear that , Brother, you know that sometimes you go to visit Japan.
love love
Thanks!
Great to see you back in action again. Enjoy your trip!
Thanks, will do!
I'm sure going home feels great, but leaving Thailand can't be easy even for a short time. Each time I leave Thailand, I found it difficult. I lived in Asia for 5 years and still miss it. 😊
If you’re going home do it in style Serg 👌👌 what a great way to travel . Looking sharp Serg in your blazer
It’s nice to fly business on these longer flights. Love this blazer!
Excellent video! I flew the exact same trip two weeks ago. The only difference was the first leg I had the seat next to the window. The room is absolutely incredible however, the lounge at Narita was absolutely packed. If you have credit card perks I suggest to try another lounge. Mine was right beside the gate and only had an hour. Best travel experience ever. Thanks for sharing.
Yah the Narita lounge is a zoo. I will see if I can use another lounge on my way back to Thailand. Glad yon enjoyed this video.
Excellent value, thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. Very interesting to see what it is like to travel from other countries. The airport lounge food looks so fresh and delicious. Safe travels and thanks for posting.
Very happy to share this with you, I’m glad you enjoyed this video
good to see you after ages
Just 3 weeks. Lol
That looked like a fun flight! Have a great time in the states and we'll see you in Bangkok this summer.
Let’s do it!
The room looks awesome
I highly recommend it.
These videos are so helpful for those of us starting to plan a trip to the land of smiles.
It’s not cheap, but I think it’s worth it.
Such a nice flight, have a pleasant stay in SF‼️💖
Thank you so much
Behind the ANA 380 in Tokyo was a United Airlines 737!! That's the island hopper that goes to Guam, Marshall Islands etc to Honolulu
Ohhhh good eye!
I'm happy for you to fly back to sunny California 🎉😂 on Business Class on ANA...the vblog is an eye opener 👌
Im having a great time visiting friends and family. Thanks.
Wow, as a member of the horizontal society, that looks amazing. Maybe one day…
Very comfy!
have a nice trip :)
Thank you, I will
Yes The Room Have Great Seat,Like Japan Airlines Have On A350-1000.Great Video
I’m bummer I don’t have “the room” for my return flight.
Nice one Serg 😊
Such a relaxing flight. 😊
@@LifewithSerg late 22 flew on Qatar Manchester to Doha( amazing airport) then A380 to Bangkok great food & service. Then when I moved here in March 23 flew Thai business London to bkk. Fab all round , but Ana looks good. Are you using them on the return leg ?
Way to travel Serg! I flew with ANA from Tokyo to Bangkok in 2022 albeit in economy it is was a great experience. One day I'll fly business class...........
It’s a great airline!
My favorite airline. ( premium economy )
I have flown their premium economy, and I think it is wonderful!
Nice vlog mate ❤ see you🙏🙏
Thanks ✌️
I miss you Serg...😊😊😊
I am back!
Bravo Serg! Would love to see you review more airlines and hotels. I’m a big fan of this content and I think it fits very nice into your niche. Watching this video was enjoying, exciting and educational as well. Can’t wait to see more 👍🏻
Thanks Greg! I have a great idea! I should review one of your builds. I’ll only need it for a couple of days. I’ll cover the gas. 🤣😂
Jokes aside, I do enjoy making this kind of content, and I have one hotel in the works when I get back to Bangkok
Nice vlog
Thanks for watching!
Great flight and very reasonable price. Hope you make some videos from the US side also. Safe travels and enjoy buddy
That's the plan!
Welcome back state side......dining at any steak houses ? Enjoy, suppose to be 104 here in Scottsdale tomorrow.....Matt & Lucy
Not sure about steak. I just chipped a molar, lol. Off to the dentist I go.
Love your iverall You Tube style Serge. Ballin it out on business class flights, exploring Bangkok’s markets and Klongs, motorbike tours of the north. south, and southeast Thailand. When are you gonna head up to Issan, Nakon Phanom, etc?
Funny, you should ask that. That is my next motorbike tour after I get back to Bangkok and chill for a bit.
***Congratulations Congratulations - You have a sponsor now***
Sponsor?? lol. I paid for this myself. No sponsors.
ANA offers value for money, they always compete on price with JAL, the other Japanese carrier. ANA has lower prices. ANA’s big advantage, they have Tokyo Haneda (close to downtown Tokyo) as their ‘homebase’, whereas JAL is at Tokyo Narita, about 75KM out of Tokyo. However, JAL is in a different league. The JAL lounge is second to none and their business and first class is superb. ANA is part of Star Alliance, JAL is part of One World. Since Thai Airways is also a Star Alliance partner, there’s the code sharing.
Yes I’ve been in the JAL first class lounge. Very nice.
Somebody making them big YT dollars! LOL Business Class looks great
Lmao. YT did not pay for this. I wish.
Serg I am not envious you are envious XD ok I am very envious :D
lol. I am actually really looking forward to the flight back as well. 😊
@@LifewithSerg I am sure :) one day in my life I want to go to somewhere in Asia in business or first class. crypto seems to be cooking so maybe 2025 :D anyways have an awesome day!
Sure it better than most airline business class lounge.
Super nice.
Nice video Serg! ‘The Room’ looked very cool. Looks like ANA upgraded their business class seats, there was no ‘Room’ the one time I flew biz class with them 😂
They added this about two years ago. But not all of their flights have them. On my way back, I was unfortunately unable to secure “the room”But their business class is still decent.
That was a great flight and the food looked delicious. (for airplane food) having watched many travel videos, Any Japanese airline beats any other airline they just have that do your best attitude that other airlines (and countries) have lost.
You’re so right about the attitude of the Japanese airlines. The flight attendants are just so much nicer.
Nice review. I'll be flying those same planes in December from NYC. Can't wait to experience "The Room". I've already preordered my meal selection although, if I'm not mistaken, the menu will change by the time I fly to BKK at the end of the year. I think the menu changes every quarter.
I think you will really enjoy the flight.
Those older Bose headphones (QC15 or 25?) are the same I use. Still excellent after years and it's very rare that an airline provides a better option. Nice vid :)
QC15. I ended up having to replace the headband and the ear pads. Cost me $35 to get the replacement parts from Amazon while I was in the US, and when I looked on eBay out of curiosity to see how much these headphones are worth, most of them have sold for about $25-$30. Lol. However, after, almost 15 years, I definitely got out of them!
@@LifewithSerg Yep, I've done the ear pads but not the headband strap. TBH i didnt even know that part was replaceable but now that I do, it means I can use them for even longer!
the price difference is amazing. I just looked up RT flight in Business class from BKK to SFO several months from now, and it's about $3400, but a one way flight in Business class from SFO to BKK is around $4400, and a RT flight in Business class from SFO to BKK is almost $6000. Even a one way from BKK to SFO is only about $2300. May have to catch a military Space-A flight from California to Japan or Korea, hoping for a C-17, and go from there. LOL
This really was a bargain for $3400 RT!
That's the only way to travel for such long flights. It would have been miserable in economy in my opinion. Welcome back to the US!
Last year, my travel time was almost 27 hours because I took a different route. I also did that in business class. I realize this is a chunk of money, but I feel it was well worth it.
I definitely have some envy. I have just promised my wife that we will go to Japan on business class one day
Do it! You won’t regret it
hi Serg, i bought myself an ADV 350, hope you had a safe flight to America. oh btw the ADV 160 is now selling in America but with rear drum brakes for some reason.
I’m sure you’ll love the 350! Safe rides!
Wait, did Serg just use Thai language to thank the ANA flight attendant at 3:20? This is exactly what happened to Greeny Travels when he visited Vietnam. Goes to show you the result when you live a place so long you literally start turning into a local 😂. My sister was shocked I can still speak Mandarin while visiting family in Malaysia after living 29 years in US. I told her I retain the language skills watching Chinese content on RUclips.
Yes…. LMAO. I sure did. Ha ha. It was so funny. And while in California, I started speaking Thai to Mexicans instead of Spanish. Omg. At least I still have my English and Russian fluency to depend on. Ha ha
@LifewithSerg - Enjoy your stay in US! Kind of weird isn't it since you're "visiting" you home country at the moment. Lol. Is Texas part of the trip?
Time for you to upgrade you Bose headphones. I had the same ones you have before upgrading to newer ones. Since then, I've had the QC 35, then QC 35 II, and I now have the QC 45. I'm looking forward to pairing it with the IFE which does have Bluetooth connectivity. I won't have to use my AirFly Pro on my flight to BKK.
Yes o fixed them lat week, but it is time to upgrade. For sure.
ฉันยังคิดอยู่เลยว่าทำไมคุณเงียบไปไม่ลงคลิปวิดิโอใหม่ คุณคงกำลังเตรียมตัวกลับไปเยี่ยมครอบครัวและเพื่อนที่USAนั่นเอง วันเวลามันผ่านเร็วมากนะSerg😊 นี่เป็นครั้งที่2ที่คุณได้กลับบ้านของคุณที่USA ขอให้คุณมีความสุขทุกวันไม่ว่าจะอยู่ไหนนะserg TC
Thanks! When I’m in America, I don’t miss Thailand. When I’m in Thailand, I don’t miss America. This just means that I’m happy wherever I am. I’ll be back in Thailand in a few weeks.
Hey Serge, I assume you still have your place in Thailand, did you have any issues or reservations about going for 3-4 weeks and leaving your "stuff" behind? Was just thinking all the things you do when traveling overseas from the US (stop mail, ask neighbors to look out for your house, notify bank, etc.), did you have to do that over there to come here?
I did the same last year for exactly the same amount of time, almost one month. Since I live in a secure condo building, I have no worries about it whatsoever. But I know which exactly what you’re talking about..
I have lived in Thailand for three years, and have always gone with a middle east airline, do you book through ANA airways? Thanks for the Video.
I booked directly through ANA. I’d love to try Quatar or Emirates!
@@LifewithSerg Thank you. I have flown economy on both, no complaints, but I will fly business class from now on.
Do the middle seats have something you can put up for privacy
Yes. There is a divider between the middle seats. Those are gets if you’re traveling with someone.
THanks for showing that, so maybe worth splurging every now and then and paying the extra $1500 for an experience like that. I'm doing pretty good but am frugal so I generally don't like to splurge like that. If you get that in business class I can't imagine what first class must be like. I am married to a Thai and have been to Thailand quite a bit, might try that ANA sometime, I like the Japanese airlines better than America's airlines. I need to go all the way to the east coast of the US.
Yeah, I would love to try first class, unfortunately the cheapest round-trip ticket I could find was $8500.
American airline employees have serious attitude problems. I find American airlines to be stingy on food and even worse on entertainment.
@@LifewithSerg $8500! Yeah, forget that. Not even worth it if they throw in a stewardess. I have to try that business class though, I need to experience that before I get too old.
@@LifewithSerg Thanks for the advice on ANA, will try that next time. We usually go to BKK to NRT and then to Chicago or Toronto, wonder if they go all the way to Chicago, I don't think they do. Sometimes we go to Seoul Incheon airport instead of Narita. They have a nice airport, less busy than Narita.
😎👍🇺🇲
OMG I'm so jelly.
That looks so nice.
My flights have been a challenge to say the least.
On our last leg from Taiwan to Manila. I think they fed us 3 or 4 times and it's only like 3 or 4 hours. I think they were getting rid of old food😆
I'm too much of a cheapskate. I get the cheapest I can and suffer 😒
I could get a used sport bike for the extra.
Cheers Man. Hope you have safe travels. Carry on big baller.
Fluffy in the PNW Seattle WA area ✌️
Yeah I get it. It’s a sizable difference. Enough for a used bike for sure.
Great flight bro
Have a nice staying with family and friends and see you in Thailand a gain 🫶
I’ll be back in a few weeks!
With all the turbulence these days does that bed have a seatbelt, or bed belt?
There was no turbulence on this flight. This seat does have a full seatbelt with a shoulder belt, but I only used it for takeoff and landing.
I would buy this ticket in the heart beat if it is available from Bangkok to Washington, D.C. round trip. Unfortunately, it is much more expensive from the DC route. Plus "the room" is not available on this flight. Still old configuration for some reason.
Unfortunately, even my flight back to Bangkok is not going to have “the room”
Those cameras are super-cool. Seem much better quality than those available to all on Qatar flights that have the camera feature. Enjoy So-Cal (or wherever you end up)
Trump 2024
Yeah I thought it was a very cool feature!
The Serg, living large!
Nice looking jacket you were wearing.
I was in Las Vegas last week. Walking the Strip I passed a guy I thought could have been you but no, Serg is in Thailand. Now I see you are actually in the U.S. That wasn't you was it?
Actually there are so many doubles in real life! Did you hear about “John Wick” in 🇹🇭 recently! The guy is married to an Isan lady!
I was definitely not in Las Vegas. Probably one of my ugly doubles. Ha ha.
Have a safe fun trip over there did you see my comment I made in your last video?
I would say that I see 98% of comments and respond to them. However, I don’t respond to follow-up comments usually because it’s just too time-consuming.
I'm surprised there's no storage at all in the ANA. JAL has older similar seats but they have tons of storage cabinets and they introduced their new A350 plane albeit only on certain flights. I'm hoping I sit in one of the new seats soon once they retrofit them into their existing planes. Your ticket is probably a non-refundable fare so it's cheaper by a few hundred dollars. Mine is a little more as I fly into Dallas instead of LAX or SF. Looks like no direct flight into DFW without a layover in another US airport. That's a no no for me for December cause I don't want to get stuck in Chicago or Denver Airport with horrible snow! 😆
Yeah, last year I flew United Polaris business class to Austin. That round-trip ticket from Bangkok was about $5200.
@@LifewithSerg -AA is also upgrading their business class seats to have privacy doors.
Money well worth spending instead of being crush by tiny seat in economy.
I really think so.
I didn't know you were rich. Flying business class RT is like ~$3.5K vs ~$1.4K for coach. That's more than 2x the price. RUclips must be paying well these days.
I feel that flying business class on long journeys is well worth double, or sometimes triple, the price of economy
You sound a little like Data from Star Trek
LMAO. I’ll take that compliment. Ha ha.
Back to the homestead Serg. Enjoy your stay in the land of the free.
Happy to be back here for a visit!
Bro did you even mention if you were at Narita or Haneda?😢
I thought I did. Lol
@@LifewithSergLol so which is it. It looks like Narita😮
So jealous. You are rich. I always fly with an economy class.
There’s nothing wrong with flying economy class. You save a lot of money flying that way for sure.
Dude no offensive but your acting like a creep especially with the crib and chocolates not everything needs to be filmed
Weird comment. Good luck with that outlook on life.
