  • Let’s fly on one of the longest flights in the world in Economy Class and let’s do it great.
    And what is greater than Emirates and their A380?!
    Welcome to another video and thank you for joining!
    I’m continuing on Part 1 of my journey on Emirates from Bangalore and onwards to San Francisco.
    It is a very popular route and was highly requested, so here it is!
    In this video I’ll share some of my tips and tricks that help me greatly on long haul travel.
    The most important of all is the seat! I am traveling on one of the 2 best seats on the EK A380: 68 A and K.
    These have by far the best legroom, privacy and a window. While there are plenty of more emergency exit seats, I’ll show you why this one is my favorite.
    It is however a slightly different video as usual, with less inside footage as the flight was overbooked and there was always someone in the frame. Nobody wants to sit for over 15 hours!
    Find below part 1 of this video:
    • Emirates A380 from Ind...
    Thank you for being here and enjoy!
    Today we are showcasing you the following flight:
    From: Dubai International Airport, Dubai, The United Arab Emirates
    To: San Francisco International Airport, California, The United States of America
    Flight Number: EK 225
    Aircraft Type: Airbus A380-800
    Registration: A6-EUK
    Flight Time: 15:11

    Have a nice one!
    You can also leave a Super Like as a tip for my work. I’ll invest it all on future trips.

    Reminds me of some very old times, when the flight from Tehran to New York was the longest flight in the world. Flown by a 747SP, hope to see such flights once again in my lifetime

      That was a legendary flight! I wish I had taken that at some point.
      I also hope they’ll return, but I guess it’s B787’s for now 😞

    Excellent! Perhaps the best flight video I have seen. Nothing was left out. As a plane watcher all my life, identifying all of the other aircraft was a major plus to this video. Not that it needed it. The photography was superb. The personal comments were fantastic. Anyone who views this will surely want to fly on the Emirates A-380. It is a fact that Emirates has the best in-flight entertainment system of any airline in all the world. Thank God this aircraft is still being used by Emirates. And in a most spectacular way. People still alive today who flew on airlines in the 1950s and 60s could never have imagined commercial air travel could come to this. Well done.

    I was on a very similar flight on the Emirates a380. Dubai to Toronto in economy class, approximately 14 hours! Despite the horrific duration, Emirates was able to present such a memorable experience.

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Very glad you had a good experience Rafay.
      I understood that SFO and YYZ are the two busiest routes to North America. I felt sorry for the crew at one point.
      I hope you get to fly them again soon!

      When I used to live in Barcelona, Spain 15 years ago, there was no real Indian restaurant yet. So I even flew sometimes to a place in Spain (Mallorca) where there was.

    Thank you for the report trip. A380 is incredible. My longest travel was with a bus yes a bus 🚌 from Türkiye to France in 4 days it was around 50 hours. No IFE no food no confortable seat . So 15hours in this economy class with Emirates for me look like luxury. With car is very good I did this from France to Türkiye, plane It's just 3hours but bus ... Never again.
    I'm waiting the next video with Qatar airways.

      In Latvia they have long distance buses that travel in 24 hours to Paris or 20 hrs. to Berlin for around 100 euros. This is more expensive than flying on a budget carrier. People told me they take the bus to be able to carry more baggage.

    • @MrCoton.
      @MrCoton. ปีที่แล้ว

      @@peterrisbergs7156 yes this is why I took the buse because I had lot of baggage with me. But today I'm happy I find a low cost airlines Sun Express it's a company from Lufthansa and Turkish airlines I can have 30 KG of luggage. I did İzmir Brussels in direct flight for 120 euros. If I took Turkish airlines I should have done this İzmir İstanbul İstanbul Brussels and more expensive for 20 KG.
      With car and plane is ok for me but buse omg it's very difficult.

    Forget the original point of the A380 being a hub to hub plane, this beast is surely the size that most long haul planes are going to need to be in the future. Sure, if you could re-engineer the airframe to be lighter or more aerodynamic you could progressively reduce cost. But for sheer transportational power, the A380 is superb. Until next gen engines come on line, any machine looking to get close to a quad jet isn't going to cut it.

      Well, I would never say no to Business Class if provided by my employer of if there is a good offer.

      No way! I didn’t even touch that pizza as I was still full. You don’t really move a lot on these flights so you don’t burn many calories, so the food stays there longer. I was completely full and I strongly believe a 3rd hot meal would be a waste!

Alex, you are surpassing ANY other avGeed reporter as you cover every aspect always with so much details and including all details from flight details, inflight and spending just enough time from pre flight to post flight. Although my heart lies with KLM being ex pilot I have to admit I mostly fly Emirates with Gold Status. You just cannot beat it in every aspect, detail and service! Coming to DXB next month, guess what, flying from AKL to DXB 16 hrs upper deck on Emirates! Cannot wait. Gracias Alex! Tot spoedig maar wellicht niet in DXB?! Zou leuk zijn...

    You were able to take water with you onto the plane? They always make me throw it away when they do extra security checks on flights to USA. So frustrating. I too need water on a long haul flight. The amount of water they give isn’t nearly enough and I’m not gonna drink water from the one by the bathrooms. My flights usually leave through terminal 3… that’s why I don’t see the store where they sell model planes. I gotta stop by Terminal A or wherever you left from.

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  ปีที่แล้ว

      How can they deny you water..? I did have additional checks too many times and it is no issue.. I think.. Why can some people bring it and others with extra checks not?

I've been told that Emirates will allow me to take my mobility chair, and they will assist me from the door of the aircraft to my seat. I can still walk but distance is limited, so it won't be difficult getting to my seat. I'm looking forward to the day that I board the A380 - 800. again I thank you for this outstanding video.
