    What an amazing experience. Each First Class just seemed to get better and better. Etihad are wonderful, Emirates looks just off the scale but then Singapore was incredible too (and so sweet to give you a bear for your son). I could feel your excitement on each trip.

    I am so humble to see a humble person be a happy flyer and enjoy everything as it was christmas day rather than picking faults.....I see many youtubers who where never used to first class fly first class because of the money they make from you tube and then say such negative things rather than seeing the good....I fly economy so this would be amazing experience and I wouldn't be wanting to find fault with an amazing experience I was never used to....thanks for being humble

The flight attendant was so sweet to bring you a bear for Lennon. Hummus is one of my favorites too. I do like fish of any kind but you made my mouth water as you ate salmon.

      To me it brings to light how horrid American airliners are international wise . American , United , Delta just pale in comparison . So sad . They are to money greedy instead of investing in better and superior customer service. Thanks for a great video. Air France first class and Singapore airlines first class are on my bucket list for sure.

      ​@@brianmichaels5112it's 75% cheaper for labour costs. They have their own oil ( jet fuel). American airlines are at a huge disadvantage. It would be better if their hub was in a 3rd country where fuel and labour costs were cheaper. You would get airplanes like this. I feel bad for US airlines. I grew up on them my father worked for them. Asian airlines are my favorite but the Arab countries have very nice flights

    Don't forget to give cabin crew something; it's well worth it. If you're flying business class, you'll never know when you'll be upgraded to first class. Cabin crew work their butts off. A box of luxury chocolates to share is a good start, maybe make personalized gifts for male crew and female crew. It doesn't have to be anything extravagant, just something to show your appreciation.

    I enjoyed the video. And there’s plenty of production value, for sure. But with your budget and your desire to truly “fly around the world”, it would have been more fun to see an antipodal flight path instead of crisscrossing Europe and Asia. Yes, your total flight path was 26,000 miles, which exceeds the circumference of the Earth. But you never crossed the Equator. In sailing, you can’t claim to have sailed “around the world” until you’ve been to two antipodes - points which are opposite of each other on Earth. I often dreamed of a true “around the world” flight using antipodal cities; flights such as Madrid to Wellington then back to Madrid. Or Perth to Bermuda and back to Perth. Buenos Aires and Shanghai are another pair, and they both have major airports. Rio de Janeiro to Tokyo and back; That would be a fun flight.
