American Airlines 777-300 Flagship First Flight Review

I’m Brian Kelly, welcome to my life as The Points Guy.

I got a golden ticket. Today, we have a lot to be excited about. Aside from flying first class on an AA 777-300 from Miami to Sao Paulo, I got to check out the Flagship dining lounge (for the first time!). Also, the final destination is Brazil — one of my favorite places to visit on earth. #BeingThePointsGuy #FlightReview

My AA first-class Flagship experience was definitely luxurious. I had some excellent food, the lounge passed the shower test, and I might be coming around to Veuve. As for the plane itself, all 6’7 of me was tucked away and comfortable in the lie-flat first class cabin. The Casper mattress pad didn’t hurt either. And the monkey bread changed my life.

Join us next time for my Brazilian Carnival Fashion Makeover!

7:12 What a nice boss to get the cameraman a seat in first with you. TPG, such a class act.

Great video Brian! We Just flew AA Flagship First from Tokyo to LAX, seat 2D! Amazing experience. We thought the food was great!

[WanderlustMyWay]

Oh I thoroughly enjoyed this. Lately I've been trying to research the different between 1st class and business, so I'm glad you mentioned these particular differences

[tatravels]

Outstanding! Enjoyed this review. I’ll rethink my impression on AA. 😀

[pgcayalo]

I love that even thought Brian has traveled so much and experienced almost all kinds of lounges and flights he stills gets excited for every trip.

[GregChomko]

You look great, Brian! I thoroughly enjoyed the video. Wishing you safe travels!

[MatteoMariano]

You bring such a sweet informal way of flying in style! Loving your videos Brian!

I'm 6'4" so if it works for Brian it'll work for me! Nice video.

Hey Brian nice review and most importantly you seem so genuinely fun and friendly. YOU really look like you enjoyed your experience. it does not seem like all these negative comments get you down and that is awesome. People like to be negative and talk like they were there experiencing what you experienced. I truly wonder if some of these people have ever even been on an airplane let alone first class Thanks again for a fun video.

[CorinneStinton]

So cool. Loved your dining experience.

[EuropeNordeste]

Hey there, cool video. I wanna see your video on Brazil. Next month we fly to Fortaleza and we will visit Jericoacoara one of the most beautiful beaches on earth.

[Taffy_Jaffe]

Great insight Mr.TPG, look forward to your Brazil Vlogs!

[YourTravelTV]

Haha, we talked about AA First and Lufthansa First at the ThePointsGuyUK Event. what is your opinion now? :)

[abigailmcintosh]

Great video!! I always enjoy your videos. James Asquith gives some awesome reviews on Flagship first class too

[dominicbone]

Omg just love how excited you were on this video. The amount of flying you do it’s easy to get jaded. Just loved your energy. Maybe I’d be as excited to see all the hot Brazilian men too! 🤪

[angellistheshit]

Landing in Miami for Memorial Day weekend but I wish I was going to Brazil like TPG 😩😩

[etops]

I will be purser on MIA-GRU 777-300 today the 28 . It’s gonna be amazing !

[dldc]

Just subscribed. Love your enthusiasm. You make the video fun!!

[Jamminjared]

Hey Brian! I'm glad you enjoyed your time with us. I hope to have you on one of my flights sometime! :) Would love a picture!

Hi Brian, I love your video work and keep up with TPG. Being from Austin and a Delta flyer I saw your article about the Sky Club opening. Is there any way you could do a video tour of the club? From the pictures I have seen it looks nothing like the sky club style I am used to! Nice video Brian, cheers!
