Another fantabulous review, Alex! I just love how above and beyond Emirates is willing to go to please their customer. Definitely one of my top 3 airlines.
And there is so much food and drinks I had to say no to!! I fear each time I travel EK, my pants get tighter indeed! Thanks a lot for being here my friend!
@@TheLayoverAviation Last evening after I sat glued to your video, I subscribed to your Chanel as I do not feel its fair to watch TH-cam Videos that people have worked so hard to make and then not support you. I was blown away with your Business Class Service. I have done Air Canada Business Class many times and never got anything like Emirates!!!. As long as I get my lie flat bed and a cup of coffee somewhere in the flight I am happy, although to be fair I only usually travel to LHR or Dublin (Ireland) so its much shorter than your flights. The Air Canada Business Class is good, the meals and wine etc and are served nicely but yours was outstanding. I look forward to seeing more. Plus the Upper Lounge on Emirates. It was superb from start to finish. I hope that your week is good.
great video alex as always! the ek experience looks amazing! i cant believe they have the lord of the Ring in the ice ife! the flight would pass easy for me with that :D can't wait for the next video :)
If I watch the Lord of the Rings I would have fallen asleep before the light snack was served. See, I tried so many times to watch it as I know it’s a master piece but I never go past the Mountains of Moria bit, the snowed up ones. I always pass out as it’s a movie that makes me notoriously sleepy.. But hey, now you have a plan on your next flight!
This is a great video for food choices that Emirates serves, but not for a avid air traveler who likes the view. I know it was night time so I will watch another of your videos to make a comparison. Nice quiet plane though. I love the A380. May they keep flying for a long time.
Regarding the view, that’s true.. The flights departing Dubai to the US at 8am have daylight all the way.. But no IAD flight at that time. There is other video’s on this channel about a similar experience, I hope you enjoy!
Thank you for this most excellent report. Just looking at all the food on Emirates made me both hungry and full at the same time. While I understand that the partnership between UA and EK is beneficial to both companies, it must be quite a shock to connect from an EK flight to a UA flight, or vice-versa. The differences between each carrier's product is like night and day!!
Really nice review. The whole cabin looks a bit tired, but they still manage to put together an amazing service, you just can't beat it. Look forward to seeing what they do with those new A350s and 777x! I flew DXB-JFK in PE (similar flight time) last month, and have to say, I really like the concept of having a light meal after takeoff, then the main service later in the flight. I haven't really seen other airlines do that, and it's a great idea... no-one wants a full meal that early in the morning!
I saw your flight in EK’s PY, loved it! It’s a solid product. And yes, the light snack after take off is much better. Most people have connected and had dinner on the previous flight or had a snack in the lounge. I reckon that if I was not filming I would have gone straight to bed, like most others. Looking forward to your next flight!
@@TheLayoverAviation Thanks for the wishes, Alex. The closest I ever got to experiencing that opulence was on a flight from DXB to HKG on the A380, 12 years ago. Economy, where I was seated, had a 60 percent occupancy so it was really pleasant. Before disembarking the purser took me on a tour of the upper deck. The A380 was a fairly new head-turning aircraft then. We've gotten used to its presence but are still blown away by the quality of the product, particularly on Emirates!
Emirates sets the bar that others follow. I's still in the first tier of Skywards but once I get to higher levels, I'd love to try a long haul flight in business class. Just once.
Buddy, once you get to higher tiers and become a frequent flier you’ll notice how flights and perks just become cheaper or free.. It’s like a whole world of stuff that I wonder why others are not aware.. I’m top tier at some airlines and feel I get special offers others don’t get and the miles just accumulate so I just use it on upgrades or free tickets. So very much worth it!
@@TheLayoverAviation Amazing! So did you pay full price for this flight? I spent my miles at the Dubai duty free on my last flight. Got fridge magnets, Emirates branded apparel and chocolates (not as fancy as what you got onboard in this video).
Check out some exterior pictures and you’ll see how cool! The outer engines, due to the massive wingspan, could be located close to the runway edges thus suck in sand/grass/other objects and do lots of damage! Thanks for watching! 🙏
I love them, specially on the A380 upper deck as I can walk and stretch out while having a drink and chatting to the crew, so I agree! I got so bored on other airline +14 hour flights!
3:40 tbf they might aswell leave them in the takeoff position if they're gonna be off the ground a lot otherwise they would have to put them back out again everytime
It is important to have a routine and be consistent as a pilot. The flaps are a one off procedure on the hot days and pilots have to remember. But yes, your words do have some logic!
I still have not flown the Etihad A380 as this month I am super busy with work, so that is a bit postponed, perhaps next month. For the next video I think I’ll go for Singapore Airlines! Thanks for being here buddy!
another great vlog Alex, I came as soon as I saw the notification. Emirates business class is just amazing. Even their new economy class in the new champagne colour is nice but I don’t think they have that or the first class ground it ceiling suite yet?
Hey Ali! Thanks for being here. It is amazing indeed even though it isn’t the newest one in the A380 fleet. The A380’s don’t have the fully enclosed suites, I don’t think it fits? Only select B777-300ER’s so far. I’ll publish a video on that one soon!
I’ve had the privilege to fly this route 15 times and it was always a memorable flight, never delayed or a mechanical issue, I never wanted to get off the plane
This was the most awaited video ❤Thank you so much 😊 Love the way you show each and every details of A380 🎉 Looking forward for more such videos 🫶🏻 Btw where’s your next trip to ?
Hey there! Thanks for the lovely comment, glad you enjoyed it. The A380 is a stunning plane and this video doesn’t do any justice.. Next video is from Singapore to Bangkok on SQ’s B787-10!
I flew on A6-EUS in 2021 from Heathrow to Dubai 😀 Then A6-EVI from DXB to IAD in business class. What a phenomenal experience, from lounge and priority boarding to the funky cocktails and inflight experience. This video nostalgically reminds me of that amazing flight.
A6-EVI still is an upgrade though as it has the latest lounge, I would prefer that one! I hope you get to try it again, it’s indeed a whole experience and I’m glad you had a little flash from the past! Happy flights!

Another awesome and interesting video mate! Enjoyed it! A380 is just HUUGE,great plane to fly!! EK know how to give you privacy and luxury at the same time :) Woah! I just can't believe how this giant bird can't lift off, Its just amazing! 😮 And the service...AMAZING Thanks for sharing! Hope you and your family is doing well! See you mate!!💪🏻
Thanks buddy! Well, the thing of VVIP’s is that nobody really gets to know. But it’s Washington, so very likely a head of state or similar. I’ve met the President of Kenya in EK First once!
I have been flying for emirates for a Long time and it never disappoints very good vid so far I’ve only been on 777 business but this year I going on a a830 business to Bali. Keep up the good work❤
That’s some A380. I’ve seen parts of it on another “Trip Report” channel. I think the A380 is more like a building in the sky due to the bar & how spacious it is in some areas. Another cool thing is, Dubai & the US’s East coast have a 8 hour time difference.
And even more of a difference with the west. It’s hard for most to return to a normal routine but I’ve got it mastered by now 😃 The A380 is a flying city.. the logistics behind every single flight are just mind blowing.. And all the stories behind each of those individuals that are there ensuring a safe operation. I wish I could make a video about that some day soon!
You are lucky Layover Aviator to go Business Class. I was going on a holiday from LHR TO SEZ ON EMERARTES A380. It was superb and comfortable on Economy class, then the Boeing 777 was not nice on that part of the journey,
Sorry you did not have a great experience on the B777.. The A380 is better in every way! And I doubt it will fly to SEZ anytime.. I wish you many more happy journeys!
😀 happy to see you enjoying a flight well it is Emirates always a good flight in my eyes. Great review reminds me I need to fly emirates very soon it’s been a long while. Business on EK on such a flight like this would be and looks a dream and I’m sure feels like one 😍😂, love the bar this would have to be a occasion where calories are no question just indulge. Great stuff as always! Hope your doing well? 😎👍👏🙋♂️
Excellent verslag zoals steeds 👌 Veeeeeeele jaren geleden, toen ik met een vriend op reis was in de USA, dat ik de Concorde zag landen in Washington. Misschien wat te prive, maar wat is het werk dat je doet als ik mag vragen.
It’s a good product but there are things I miss. PJ’s (like on EVA Air, Virgin Atlantic, Qantas, Qatar Airways,…) and dine on demand (like on Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways,…) and also there is the risk of ending up on B777 BC which is not nice at all.
Thank you so much for ur reply and amazing trip report like always and I hope you also had a great flight and I learn alot from ur vids I'm a kid I'm 12 and I know alot about engines in aircrafts for example the A380 engines EA GP7000 engines, Rolls Royce trent 900 the engine that were equiped in the A380 you flew on anyways thanks again for ur reply!
I usually go with Emirates a380 first class when I fly to NYC from Dubai. It's one of the best airlines in the industry. If you ever get a chance to fly FC, do it. Showering at 40k ft is a unique experience.
Thanks for writing. First Class is a whole experience indeed! I do fly it sometimes and hope to publish more videos of it here in the near future. The shower is incredible, specially after such a long flight!
Thanks for this it was a great video! I always love your videos as I learn something new either about aviation or like today about the world (the seeding of clouds in Dubai for example) Love Emirates and the A380, but always a dilemma from London do I go A380 Heathrow or the 777 from Stanstead (shower, boarding from the lounge and bar LHR or game changer seat STD) Absolutely agree about the Emirates hand cream it is the best, always have one available
I am sure that Emirates has got a plan up their sleeve that we are unaware of.. I don’t think the A380 will just retire and that’s the end of this great product. Something better must be planning up..
Hello! Great video! I'd like to try BC on Emirates/Etihad/Qatar Airways from Amsterdam via Dubai/Abu Dhabi/Doha to Seoul as I always fly with KLM, which one would you choose if you were me? Thank you for your answer.
It depends! I love all 3. Each has their pro’s and con’s. If you want fun, a great time, make friends and have an incredible experience: Emirates EK148 from AMS. If you want fun, privacy, eye to details and good service ware: Etihad. if you want dine on demand, professionalism and privacy, quiet and peace: Qatar. so it depends on your mood! I am an Emirates and Etihad person however mostly frequently fly on QR.. But they aren’t much fun!
I’m coming to London for work in September I think. I would love to organize something but I always do my best not to stay and fly back straight away to be with my son. I’ll try to do a meet up some day!
All of them!!! Just check them out. The one in concourse A is massive and just lots of buffets. But in concourse B you’ll find the Moet-Chandon bar. So each concourse has a different lounge, discover it all!
Dunno if the 777s are fitted with a better business class now. Just saw Josh Cahill's video on the EK business class on those and it is indeed not great with that annoying middle seat. I do wanna fly EK though. Miss those days living in Dubai. Will be heading this November to spend some time in Dubai at home with BA staff travel from LHR. :D Btw on the text below, are you a pilot or with an aerospace engineering background? Because I am and can relate to a few of the concepts easily :) My masters in Delft was in Air Transport and Operations though, so not technical. Bedankt voor de video :)
Lovely video, thanks for giving us a peek at your incredibly luxurious journey :) Entertaining and doubles as a source of motivation to work hard enough to afford this experience some time! One quick question: the menu on board does not seem to have vegetarian options, does one get a different menu for that or do you have to make a special meal request as you do when flying economy?
I do a lot.. And I make sure that whatever I wish to do has to include travel. My main job is representing and promoting a big hospitality brand. Besides that I have some things aside of my own, workaholic!
One thing I’ve noticed with A380 business class reviews is that I’ve never seen any mention of the overhead luggage space. I’m due to be flying Emirates from LHR to DXB next April
Hey buddy your videos are outta this world amazing ❤ them all. But I must ask are you in aviation or have your private license you know alot about aviation. I my self am an aviation nerd since I was 8yrs old and been a flight attendant for 34yrs started with pan am for 1yr then went to TWA now American and must say wish the U.S airlines would get it together horrible thanks for this amazing video Hector Armando here
This business class of Emirates looks way better than the first class of other airlines. Thank you for the wonderful vlog as always. I love your flaps info. How I wish I could understand the flaps mechanism thoroughly :-)
Try flying with Emirates A380 from Dubai to Denpasar, DXB to DPS, Denpasar Bali is An island in indonesia, On 1 June 2023 Emirates Made Its First Flight From Dubai To Denpasar Bali indonesia 🇮🇩 ♥️ 🇦🇪 i'm waiting for the video
I recently flew EK A380 from DUS to DXB and I have 2 questions, and I think you would probably be able to answer them given your vast knowledge and experience with EK 1. Is there any difference in efficiency between A380s with the rolls royce engines vs the engine alliance one? (I think engine alliance should be better as it is based on the Genx) 2. Why does EK IFE not have subtitles for its english content? its a borderline dealbreaker as I was struggling to understand the lines over and above the noise of the air conditioning and the engine. One small problem I had in economy on the a380 is that the nature of the floor layout results in the wall being too far to provide support to sleep on....well atleast the seats are wide and with lots of legroom! Nice video as always with many details!
The general thought I've seen on EA engines vs. RR, is EA are slightly more efficient (1.3%) The RR engines didn't meet spec on introduction and RR had to make 3 upgrades to it's engines to meet spec. The 1.3% for EA is after these upgrades. EK was a bit miffed with RR after the order since they didn't get another further upgrade. EK does have subtitles in it's IFE. It's a setting you have to change with it to get the subtitles. Default is no subtitles. Next time ask a FA and they should help you change it.
In Business there is more choice, but even in Economy I feel like there is too much.. 3 meals on this flight and I couldn’t even finish those.. You’ll be able to find a video on this channel on a flight to San Fran!
Thanks a lot Mohamed! Glad you like it. I do many jobs, I promote and represent a major hospitality brand, I do rent out some real estate of my own, TH-cam, it goes on!
That is the most food on an airplane I have ever seen. The whole experience looks unbeatable.
And there was so much more that I didn’t accept or eat.. So yes, tons of food!
I have tried both Buisness and First Products on the Emirates A380 and I can say they are amazing
I Love Emirates A380 Business Class Product And The Aboard Bar.Great Trip Report
Thanks a lot! It’s an incredible product indeed and I really wish that Emirates continues to install bars on the new N777 ❤️

Never ever have I felt this much hungry while watching a flight trip report.. 😅
I know right?! And wait until I make a full video of the entire Business Class lounge..
Another fantastic video. You have a very elegant and fascinating way of presenting. Looking forward to the next one already!
Thanks a lot my friend!! The next one is already in the making 😎
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Hoping to fly on an A380 in the near future!
I hope you do so!
Thanks for another wonderful video 🥂 Always amazing service ... and the food, I think I put on 5kg just watching 😂 Safe travels 🍸🍸🍸
And there is so much food and drinks I had to say no to!! I fear each time I travel EK, my pants get tighter indeed!

Not only you, but the crew onboard get as fat as you, so you are not alone.
Great intro pls do these introductions all the time you go in a380 or the 747

The A380 is a flying city.. the logistics behind every single flight are just mind blowing.. And all the stories behind each of those individuals that are there ensuring a safe operation. I wish I could make a video about that some day soon!
You are lucky Layover Aviator to go Business Class. I was going on a holiday from LHR TO SEZ ON EMERARTES A380. It was superb and comfortable on Economy class, then the Boeing 777 was not nice on that part of the journey,
Sorry you did not have a great experience on the B777.. The A380 is better in every way! And I doubt it will fly to SEZ anytime..
I wish you many more happy journeys!
Hello Layover Aviation! Please take a review of Etihad A380 London Flight
I will do that soon!
😀 happy to see you enjoying a flight well it is Emirates always a good flight in my eyes. Great review reminds me I need to fly emirates very soon it’s been a long while. Business on EK on such a flight like this would be and looks a dream and I’m sure feels like one 😍😂, love the bar this would have to be a occasion where calories are no question just indulge. Great stuff as always! Hope your doing well? 😎👍👏🙋♂️
Excellent verslag zoals steeds 👌
Veeeeeeele jaren geleden, toen ik met een vriend op reis was in de USA, dat ik de Concorde zag landen in Washington.
Misschien wat te prive, maar wat is het werk dat je doet als ik mag vragen.
It’s a good product but there are things I miss. PJ’s (like on EVA Air, Virgin Atlantic, Qantas, Qatar Airways,…) and dine on demand (like on Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways,…) and also there is the risk of ending up on B777 BC which is not nice at all.
Lol yesterday I travelled from dxb to lhr in economy but I went to business class lounge in A concourse I'm sad I did not see u im a big fan
I wasn’t there yesterday though.. Last time I was there was 2 weeks ago. Would be nice to meet someone there though!
I hope you had a pleasant flight!
Thank you so much for ur reply and amazing trip report like always and I hope you also had a great flight and I learn alot from ur vids I'm a kid I'm 12 and I know alot about engines in aircrafts for example the A380 engines EA GP7000 engines, Rolls Royce trent 900 the engine that were equiped in the A380 you flew on anyways thanks again for ur reply!
I usually go with Emirates a380 first class when I fly to NYC from Dubai. It's one of the best airlines in the industry. If you ever get a chance to fly FC, do it. Showering at 40k ft is a unique experience.
Thanks for writing. First Class is a whole experience indeed! I do fly it sometimes and hope to publish more videos of it here in the near future.
The shower is incredible, specially after such a long flight!
Exelente video, la recojida del chofer es en cualquier ciudad o solamente en Dubai??
En la mayoria de las ciudades. Hay unas pocas que no lo ofrecen. Tampoco lo ofrecen con la tarifa “saver”.
Always nice capture Good job ❤❤
Thanks Usama!!! Always amongst the first 🫶🏼
Thanks for this it was a great video! I always love your videos as I learn something new either about aviation or like today about the world (the seeding of clouds in Dubai for example) Love Emirates and the A380, but always a dilemma from London do I go A380 Heathrow or the 777 from Stanstead (shower, boarding from the lounge and bar LHR or game changer seat STD) Absolutely agree about the Emirates hand cream it is the best, always have one available
EXPERIENCE thy name is A380 :) Way to go bro.... keep soaring high....shukran .........stay blessed
❤Always the best n most perfect Trip Report❤😂.Love the Emirates❤Thanks for always bringing perfection with all the drinks n food😂..LOL.❤
Donna I missed you around! Thanks a lot for writing, Emirates is always a good time. Greetings from a lovely bar in Nice, France 👋🏼
YOU ARE TOO MUCH FUN.
By the way you know I am always there no matter what❤
HI LAYOVER AVIATION MY DREAM GUY. HOPE YOU ARE NIT STILL IN THE BAR THAT YOU FÒRGET TO POST YOUR VIDEO😀😀
What a lovely video buddy! Liked!
Great video - how on earth do you manage to stay in shape with so much food being thrown at you?!
I exercise a lot and I live a healthier lifestyle outside of planes 😊
thanks a lot have a nice flight we enjoy
Thanks a lot my friend!
❤❤❤❤❤ loving this channel
very glad you do, thanks for watching!
You should make the same video like this going from Auckland, New Zealand to Dubai, where that is an overnight flight.
I don’t like overnight flights, nothing to see 😞
But I hope to visit Auckland soon.
I think I would still in an A380 however, fly over night.
Long live a380. Always great experience. So sad we will miss it when it is getting replaced.
I am sure that Emirates has got a plan up their sleeve that we are unaware of.. I don’t think the A380 will just retire and that’s the end of this great product. Something better must be planning up..
@@TheLayoverAviation But didn't they announced they will replace those with 787 to a larger extent and some with a350-1000?
@@TheLayoverAviation Like what????
do you get to keep the amenity bags after the flight?
Yes of course! That’s why I asked for two😌
It’s a nice gift!
@@TheLayoverAviation ok thanks
Hello! Great video! I'd like to try BC on Emirates/Etihad/Qatar Airways from Amsterdam via Dubai/Abu Dhabi/Doha to Seoul as I always fly with KLM, which one would you choose if you were me? Thank you for your answer.
It depends! I love all 3. Each has their pro’s and con’s.
If you want fun, a great time, make friends and have an incredible experience: Emirates EK148 from AMS.
If you want fun, privacy, eye to details and good service ware: Etihad.
if you want dine on demand, professionalism and privacy, quiet and peace: Qatar.
so it depends on your mood! I am an Emirates and Etihad person however mostly frequently fly on QR.. But they aren’t much fun!
@@TheLayoverAviation Thank you very much! Which one is the most consistent?
3:49 Why does the higher temperature require the lowering of the slats?
Since I also have a TH-cam channel I would like to get on Emirates soon to make a trip report
Emirates is the most fun to make video’s on!
I know, thanks for the suggestions
Your fan base is waiting to meet you at LHR.... Please plan your trip so we all can meet you soon..
I’m coming to London for work in September I think. I would love to organize something but I always do my best not to stay and fly back straight away to be with my son. I’ll try to do a meet up some day!
@@TheLayoverAviation Thank you for your reply. Please try your best.. We hope to see you in September. Counting days :-)
nice video man!
Thanks Ethan!
I have an upcoming flight and i'm flying business with emirates. Which emirates lounge would you recommend for my 9ish hour layover?
All of them!!! Just check them out. The one in concourse A is massive and just lots of buffets. But in concourse B you’ll find the Moet-Chandon bar. So each concourse has a different lounge, discover it all!
@@TheLayoverAviation Thank you :)
Dunno if the 777s are fitted with a better business class now. Just saw Josh Cahill's video on the EK business class on those and it is indeed not great with that annoying middle seat. I do wanna fly EK though. Miss those days living in Dubai. Will be heading this November to spend some time in Dubai at home with BA staff travel from LHR. :D
Btw on the text below, are you a pilot or with an aerospace engineering background? Because I am and can relate to a few of the concepts easily :)
My masters in Delft was in Air Transport and Operations though, so not technical.
Bedankt voor de video :)
Yeah, there are some 777 with the old C (2-3-2), that’s definitely not good. Even worse than Lufthansa’s outdated C product.
Lovely video, thanks for giving us a peek at your incredibly luxurious journey :) Entertaining and doubles as a source of motivation to work hard enough to afford this experience some time!
One quick question: the menu on board does not seem to have vegetarian options, does one get a different menu for that or do you have to make a special meal request as you do when flying economy?
What do you for a living?? Absolutely stunning job whatever it is😍😍get to travel a lot
I do a lot.. And I make sure that whatever I wish to do has to include travel.
My main job is representing and promoting a big hospitality brand. Besides that I have some things aside of my own, workaholic!
@@TheLayoverAviation Great!👏
One thing I’ve noticed with A380 business class reviews is that I’ve never seen any mention of the overhead luggage space. I’m due to be flying Emirates from LHR to DXB next April
Plenty of space.. Never ran out of it as far as I can remember..
Hey buddy your videos are outta this world amazing ❤ them all. But I must ask are you in aviation or have your private license you know alot about aviation. I my self am an aviation nerd since I was 8yrs old and been a flight attendant for 34yrs started with pan am for 1yr then went to TWA now American and must say wish the U.S airlines would get it together horrible thanks for this amazing video Hector Armando here
i am big fan of you from Amman Jordan
Thanks a lot my friend! Soon a video coming up on Royal Jordanian!
@@TheLayoverAviation Thats a Good News Keep it up
This business class of Emirates looks way better than the first class of other airlines.
Thank you for the wonderful vlog as always.
I love your flaps info. How I wish I could understand the flaps mechanism thoroughly :-)
Try flying with Emirates A380 from Dubai to Denpasar, DXB to DPS, Denpasar Bali is An island in indonesia, On 1 June 2023 Emirates Made Its First Flight From Dubai To Denpasar Bali indonesia
🇮🇩 ♥️ 🇦🇪
i'm waiting for the video
I recently flew EK A380 from DUS to DXB and I have 2 questions, and I think you would probably be able to answer them given your vast knowledge and experience with EK
1. Is there any difference in efficiency between A380s with the rolls royce engines vs the engine alliance one? (I think engine alliance should be better as it is based on the Genx)
2. Why does EK IFE not have subtitles for its english content? its a borderline dealbreaker as I was struggling to understand the lines over and above the noise of the air conditioning and the engine.
One small problem I had in economy on the a380 is that the nature of the floor layout results in the wall being too far to provide support to sleep on....well atleast the seats are wide and with lots of legroom!
Nice video as always with many details!
The general thought I've seen on EA engines vs. RR, is EA are slightly more efficient (1.3%) The RR engines didn't meet spec on introduction and RR had to make 3 upgrades to it's engines to meet spec. The 1.3% for EA is after these upgrades. EK was a bit miffed with RR after the order since they didn't get another further upgrade.
EK does have subtitles in it's IFE. It's a setting you have to change with it to get the subtitles. Default is no subtitles. Next time ask a FA and they should help you change it.
Nice!
thanks!
Emirates A380 is best in the 🌍
Another beautiful inflight review. Emirates serves a lot of food in business class, in economy it is much less.
In Business there is more choice, but even in Economy I feel like there is too much.. 3 meals on this flight and I couldn’t even finish those.. You’ll be able to find a video on this channel on a flight to San Fran!
@@TheLayoverAviationyes when I travel in economy from Dubai to JFK they fed us enough
Wow! Very nice video!
Thanks buddy!
@@TheLayoverAviation very welcome
Why don’t you make a video of going from Los Angeles to Dubai?
Who knows. But I mostly travel for work so I can’t just fly to Los Angeles 16 hours to film.. But check out my San Francisco video, it’s similar!
I know.
mmmm only for the food...worth to fly with Emirates!
What is the music in the intro? Its awesome
Can you cover Ek first class too?
Best airlines
So good!
Sir I love your TH-cam vlogs! Sir what is your Real Job ? 😊 you fly around the world 😅
Thanks a lot Mohamed! Glad you like it.
I do many jobs, I promote and represent a major hospitality brand, I do rent out some real estate of my own, TH-cam, it goes on!
Norway to Dubai vlog please
I flew that last winter but didn’t make a video.. Don’t know when my next time will be..
