Tip for high-flyers...hold champagne flutes by the stem!! Keeps it cool & avoids body heat. Makes you look more seasoned at travelling :P

A great review as usual. I really enjoyed flying on Emirates A380. I was spoilt by my family with a business class ticket from Sydney to London. Great service and food. A trip of a lifetime. Good too see economy is so good as it will be economy for me next time.

Hi Jayden, Thanks for the video. I’m based out of SFO. I’ll be flying Emirates A380 to Dubai during the US Thanksgiving week & staying 6 nights in Dubai. The last time I flew an A380 was back in Christmas/New Years 2014/2015 and then my flights to India were on a older Boeing 777-300 (non ER, now retired) and Airbus A330-200 (now retired). That time my videos weren’t this much detailed oriented (I have changed that over the years) and improving whenever I take a trip internationally or fly a long haul aircraft on a transcontinental route.

The seats are exactly what I had when I flew, the map is just different. SFO (and LAX) frequently get the newer A380 with more range and those are 3-4 years old. Maybe the maps may be interactive. The A380 is very spacious and roomy and seat is comfortable. The only thing I don’t like is the window size, maybe because I’m too used to flying Boeing 77W’s internationally which its windows are reasonably sized & can still get great views & wing views.

Overall, great video and comprehensive trip report. I’ll likely report back with a video closer to the end of this month returning (two videos SFO-DXB & DXB-SFO).

Cheers, Kris

It's a gloomy Sunday afternoon in Toronto but I am able to escape and travel thanks to another amazing trip report! How much I'd love to fly the 380 once in my life! Even this economy flight was fantastic and I am very impressed by the meal, the cabin, the whole experience. Mr Wong Jayden, thanks so much again for sharing all your experiences and see you in another episode!

It's so nice of you to bring your mom along, Jayden!

Great video Jayden, great work. Love the little rhyme; "Jayden Wong is here to stay!" 🙂 Well done!

Thanks for mentioning the disabled toilets at the back of the plane very useful information when reserving your seat

Emirates has just started using back their A380s to Hong Kong at EK384 on October.
Their DXB-HKG direct flight aka EK380 will resume soon using Boeing 777

Hi Jayden.
You caught me off guard again...a Thursday trip report on a Monday... LoL 🤣
A recent decent meal for an economy seat, that's for sure, and pretty amazing legroom, too !!!
Wow, decent into Hong Kong, 20 minutes out, from 39, 000 feet, that's a drop of approx 2000 feet per minute !!!
I think that's a quite steep approach compared to some, for such a bird plane !

[alexmcwhirter]

Another fascinating report, Jayden. Must be one of the most popular fifth-freedom routes of any airline. End-to-end rivals TG and CX just cannot compete with the A380 and the onboard attention and seating location (front Y zone downstairs).

11:26 you pronounced our African drink very well. Most non Africans fail to pronounce it even though it's a simple spelling. A lot of people here have an amarula fruit tree in their backyard. If you have a sweet tooth try amarula with creamy vanilla ice cream. It's heavenly 😋😋😋.

[ImNolanGrant]

I love that you enjoyed the Amarula. I always gift it to my non South African friends

[yxcheah]

Nice blog. I like the emirates birding music

[peterfinn]

Looks great, glad they brought the chocolate bar back after about 20 years and appreciate the real cutlery. Beats the SQ service hands down

Thanks for the great video Mr. Jayden. Be safe and happy.
