How I Made My Money Back On Emirates First Class

If you want to fly Emirates First Class from Dubai to just about anywhere right now, it'll likely cost you upwards of $10,000... I scored a ticket from Bangkok to Dubai then onto Frankfurt for $3,168 and was challenged by my colleagues to get my money's worth with all the Emirates First Class experience has to offer. Needless to say, I accepted.

Was it a bit crass? Without a doubt. But was it some of the most fun I’ve ever had on a flight? Absolutely.

The flamboyant presentation suited the lavish/ritzy decor perfectly! Really enjoyed the unique wine descriptions. Thanks for a unique ride.
SUBSCRIBED!

I heard that some wines taste different on a plane. It would be interesting to interview a couple of sommeliers for each main carriers and hear their point of view and to see what goes behind each wine list.

There have been quite a few aviation vloggers who have published videos of EK F and J cabins recently - did you (or the TPG team) pay for the flight/s anonymously or were the tickets provided by Emirates?

although your persona is too bubbly for my liking, the content and format was well strung together … props

Love the video and to see your enjoyment. Lucky enough to have tried First just once, on a 4 hour flight.The wine is exceptional and the whole experience is simply nuts !

[jsimpso]

Pity there's no Qantas First class lounge at Bangkok to truly enjoy your Emirates experience!

[IronHulkTriathlon]

Amazing! Just what I was looking for! Do you have one of these videos for Singapore Airlines first class suites?

[jillleonard]

I think I am drunk and full just watching this video.

[AristidisMarousas]

This looks fantastic but how does one get a good deal on a first class trip? Also, I try to fly NYC to Athens on Emirates and they don’t use the double decker plane.

The~Bonjour-Omg-this is good .goodbye.

Emirates First Class seems to be the most over reviewed first class product there is. There should be more Gulfstream 650ER reviews (with actual flying)!

[Ryan-cmrm]

Does this video include paid promotion for Emirates?

[jamiesworld]

Anyone e csn but first class its just money at tge end of the day
