Tidbit: the appetizer you had in the suite lounge with tuna is a local dish in Hawaii that we call poke, and it’s very common for locals to eat it at gatherings and even as a meal (over rice like a donbori we call it “poke bowl” I’m glad you enjoyed some local food! Also, it’s not common in the states to eat Udon, but in Hawaii where we have heavy Asian influences especially from Japanese, Chinese, and Filipino cultures, we eat udon more than those from the mainland (contiguous United States).
It is an amuse-bouche. It is suppose to be a single bite hors d'oeuvre. Appetizers are ordered from a menu, amuse-bouche are just served at the chef's discretion.
I'm glad to see you enjoying first class, it really is a welcome treat on a long trip. I think it is wise to spend a little money intead of losing to devaluation.
Hi there from Honolulu! Welcome to Hawaii! What a coincidence, my son works part time at Raising Cane's as well! Yes, things in Hawaii are ridiculously expensive, a gallon of milk in Costco costs about 5, 6 bucks, but in regular supermarkets like Safeway's or Don Quijote's, it costs about 8, 9 bucks. Everything in the Honolulu airport is very very outdated, old fashioned and low-tech... Among the people i know, we prefer Coke than Pepsi, and people here love Japanese food, poke ahi, udon/ramen, katsu, curry, etc.... Hope you and your family will visit Hawaii again! 😊
Hello from Honolulu! Thanks for such a warm welcome. It's fascinating to hear about the local preferences and the cost of living insights. We absolutely love Japanese cuisine too! Can't wait for our next visit to explore more 😊
Thank you for sharing. I was disappointed at first for the amount of food they gave you in the beginning, like "fancy food but its too little" but get surprised with the arrival meal. Less fancy but at least good amount. Impressive for a 7hs flight.
6 thousand is still insanely dumb to just blow lololol I blew a grand once on a flight felt like the dumbest thing ever can’t imagine an idiot spending this much I’m curious how it was so cheap tho
I really enjoy watching your videos Id love to go to over half of the places you travel too I find it relaxing seeing all the different things that I would never see down in where I live
Wow what an amazing trip. Thank you for taking us along as your plus one, lol That first class plane ticket definitely hurts the wallet, but that was pretty awesome to get to see. Thank you!
A) Coke and Pepsi are somewhat equally matched in the US, but I’d venture a guess that Coke is still more popular. B) I enjoy udon, but I feel like it’s not really as popular as other Japanese dishes, like ramen, sushi, and so on here in the US.
I'm doing some long range travel planning for 2025, and I'm planning to do this exact flight. The question is do I use between 60-80 of my United Plus Points to upgrade from a business class ticket to experience this level of first class service. I think that's a YES lol.
Most of my fellow Americans are more familiar with ramen, but udon is gaining in popularity. As with most Asian things that come to the US, it's more commonplace in the Pacific region but spreading eastward.
Aloha! That's exciting news about Hawaiian Airlines. The 787-9 Dreamliner is such an impressive aircraft. Any particular destinations you're hoping they'll use it for?
Wow, when I saw the menu I thought you had to pick from all those things--but you got ALL of it. i would have been stuffed by the time the main dish came, let alone the dessert!
So many Japanese people live in and vacation in Hawaii. My dad is half Japanese (hapa which is the HAWAIIAN word for half or hafu which is half Japanese) born and raised on Oahu. My mom, who is a quarter Chinese and born and raised here in California, moved to Hawaii in the 80’s where she met my dad. I’ve been to Oahu many times where I have a much older half brother and two nieces who are 30 and 28. The oldest niece is married with a baby and I just got to see the baby last October on my last Hawaii visit. I could never live there myself because it’s too small of an island. I will stick with Southern California, but I love vacationing in Hawaii. I’ll be 32 in April and might go for my birthday. Matsumoto’s Shaved Ice on the North Shore is great! I recommend it for people. Zippys is also a good fast food chain exclusive to Hawaii (it’s burgers and not Asian food). I’m thankful there’s a lot of Asian culture here in SoCal as well. It must suck growing up in the MidWest where no Asians exist. I still need to visit Japan though. I keep saying that. I have been to cat cafes here in the US but I want to go to a particular one in Tokyo that looks soooooo much better than any of the US ones I’ve been to. There’s also an owl cafe, a shiba inu cafe and a capybara cafe I want to visit.
What a rich family history and connection to Hawaii! It's amazing how cultures blend and create unique stories. Hope you have a fantastic birthday trip if you decide to go. And those cafe visits in Tokyo sound like an adventure waiting to happen.
I'd have to say Coke is probably more popular in the south, since the main place that make's the Syrup for it is headquarters in Atlanta Ga. Thank you for taking us on a trip with you, I can only hope one day to fly to your home country! Thank you and take care!
Thank you for this! The closest I will ever get to a first-class flight experience. It looks lovely. And every time I see the food, I want to try it...especially the rice. I love nice sticky rice...AND COKE! 😃 Thank you! See you again soon! (Don't listen to any Pepsi people-Coke is always the best!)
Hi. I don't want to be controversial, but the research I've read says quite clearly: in blind taste tests Pepsi is more popular than Coke. In the real world people buy Coke more. You can also look at their advertising budgets. And, as always, thanks for the video.
I think it's fair to day thay Coke is more popular than Pepsi in New Zealand. The A380 looks like a stunning aircraft and I would love to fly on her. As a flight simulator enthusiast I would like to pilot her too!! I'm glad to see that you were treated like royalty. 😎
Absolutely, the A380 is a marvel of aviation, and piloting it, even in a simulator, must be a thrilling experience. Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm!
What a fantastic first class flight. You travelled like a celebrity! I prefer Coke Cola too. I would not have had the Pepsi lol. Thankyou for great video.
Travelling in style - amazing! ps I almost felt a bit sorry for you at the end, drinking from a paper cup. Such a contrast going from 1st to standard!! 😭😭 Cheers EJ.
Great flight, and yeah what a great way to start video, on a horseback. Flying Honu is the most colourful A380 I've ever seen, but sadly Flying Honu only serve Tokyo - Honolulu flight (based on its name). Overall great plane (also my favourite), great cabin, great food.
Hawaii's high on my list of places I'd like to see, though I have a feeling that as someone who lives in the UK, two continents and two and a half oceans away, it's going to be expensive - it looks beautiful, though! An excellent trip report, as always - these videos give plenty of inspiration for future travels :)
Thank you! I'm thrilled to hear that you're inspired for future travels. Hawaii is indeed a bit of a journey from the UK, but it's absolutely worth it for its breathtaking beauty. Hope you make it there someday!
@@experience_japan I went to Maui 3 times, the last time was last year for my birthday we went July 25th to August 4th. We were supposed to stay for august 8th ( my birthday ) but we decided we would celebrate on the mainland California. The fires happened on my birthday so if we were to stay we would have been in Lahaina and would have likely been injured. However Hawaii is still a very beautiful place even without Lahaina.
3 continents actually. Although Hawaii is located within the United States it’s not in the same continent. It’s located in Oceania which is the continent that holds Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, French Polynesia, Hawaii, Tonga, Samoa, and basically ever pacific island.
I'm sorry for being late but I have been sick. I loved your suit it looked good on you. Your first class was amazing from your seat to your bed. Thank you for the video. Coke is the way to go but Pepsi will do when you can't get Coke.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No worries at all, I hope you're feeling better! Thank you for the kind words about the suit and the flight experience. Glad you enjoyed the video! And yes, Coke over Pepsi, but both do the trick. Take care! ❤
No one can afford Hawaii anymore, not even the citizens of Hawaii. You should come to Michigan in the summer, and venture north in the state. Go across the Mackinac bridge and enjoy the beautiful beaches and everything Michigan has to offer.
Northern Michigan in the summer is something else. Great places for hiking, rustic and modern camping, cabin rentals, swimming, fishing, you name it. Camp at Interlochen state park and see the concerts put on by orchestra school students. Camp at Young state park and go out to the middle of lake Charlevoix. Camp in a rustic campground in the UP and go hiking on dodgy poorly marked trails in the most mystical of woods. Visit Lake Superior and do your damnedest to set more than your toes into its icy waters in the middle of the summer. Get your pasties at Lehto's, some smoked whitefish and cream cheese and crackers, and eat them in the overlook park. There's so much!
Just depends on your personal preference. I believe most of our fast food chains here in the U.S. sell Coke more than Pepsi so perhaps Coke is more popular for that reason. Even though neither one are really nutritionally good for you personally I'd prefer the Coca Cola in a bottle from Mexico first. If That's not available then I'd opt for the Pepsi made with real sugar. Both just taste better than the Coke or Pepsi made with high fructose corn syrup.
Japanese culture is very popular here in America. Udon, Ramen, Hibachi, all that cuisine is everywhere and popular. Especially where I live. As is Coke is definitely the most popular beverage over Pepsi. Pepsi is more known for their food, as they own a lot of brands of chips, snacks, and other things. If we are speaking only about the drink, then Coke is definitely the most popular one!
Wonderful to see your first-class flight experience. When you were served the cheese and caviar plate, it should have been served with crackers rather than what looked like small pancakes. Coke is more popular than Pepsi, here in America.
Coke is actually sold almost twice as much as Pepsi in the United States. 46% to 24%. We have others that are hugely popular but none as much as these two.
Coke and Pepsi are regional. Coke is from Atlanta so that’s a Coke area. Texas is Pepsi country. The rest of the country is a mixed bag. I would say Coke is more popular. Some love Diet Coke. And others love Coke Zero. And then there is Dr Pepper:)
Most Americans can't afford Hawaii either. They artificially raise prices because tourism is the only industry. Along with this, only rich business owners see that money. Most native hawaiians live in poverty.
15:47 to answer your question. Amuse is usually a dish just to wet your appetite without filing your stomach too much. Generally it’s 1-2 bites at most. Appetizer is a bigger dish that takes more time to consume and can be more filling. Amuse is generally more luxurious than an appetizer since amuse is only served in high-end & michelin star restaurants while appetizer is served in every restaurant.
So here is some info on the Pepsi vs Coke battle. Ultimately, I'm pretty sure Coke is more popular than Pepsi sales wise because they won the better contracts. You'll find Coke in more fast food chains, especially the giants like McDonald's and Burger King while Pepsi is sold at places like Taco Bell and Kentucky Fried Chicken. However, when it comes to the casual chains like Applebee's and family owned restaurants I haven't seen a rhyme or reason. Coke also seems to have contracts with more entertainment and tourism locations like Disney, amusement parks, sports and concert venues, etc. All of this makes Coke more "popular" by the objective metric of sales, but it's ultimately impossible to tell definitively which is more popular when it comes to something as subjective as personal taste. But there is a real difference between the two that could help inform which drink people are going to gravitate towards. Coke is formulated to be drank while cold. The colder the better. It's why the best sip is when it first hits the table and comes out of the dispenser, and the flavor becomes less exciting as it warms up. Pepsi is formulated to be drunk slightly warmer. In my opinion it tastes good when it comes out of the dispenser when you don't get ice in the cup. Pepsi tastes much better than Coke at room temperature. I prefer Pepsi for two reasons. First, I'm not a fan of super cold drinks and tend to drink beverages slower so the formulation tasting better warmer works for me. Second, across the brand, including their sports drinks like Gatorade and Propel, Pepsi has more no and low sugar options. As a diabetic those options is very attractive to me.
Coca-Cola is number one in the states, with Dr. Pepper as of a few days ago completely beating Pepsi. Pepsi is now third place in the rankings among Americans.
I love Coca-Cola more than Pepsi.
Coca-cola is more popular
How dare you
As any right-thinking person would.
Coke is overwhelming popular here too.
Coca cola ❤
“Hello from atop a horse”
is one of the best opening lines ever!
Thanks for taking us on your adventures! We love your videos!
Glad you like them!
For anyone curious, the fighter seen at 10:47 is an F-35B.
It's actually a pretty cool STOVL aircraft with the very loving nickname of "Fat Amy"
Cool!

How much did it cost
@@experience_japan
LOVE your videos man! Awesome as always.
Thank you for sharing. I was disappointed at first for the amount of food they gave you in the beginning, like "fancy food but its too little" but get surprised with the arrival meal. Less fancy but at least good amount. Impressive for a 7hs flight.
Thanks for your thoughts! Glad the arrival meal was satisfying!
I love your videos, they are so true! I was on a A380 from Frankfurt to Bangkok, I did not feel that the A380 takeoff off at all.
Calming and pretty curious as always. Thanks for your work
"I'll reluctantly drink Pepsi-cola" - a universal sentiment 😂👍
Seems like we're all in the same boat! 😂 Cheers to that!
What a fantastic service all round 😮
I think Coca-Cola is more popular, Diet Coke is even more popular. Nice video, enjoyed it very much 😊
"My wallet suffered serious damage though" 😂
I love his humour 😆
Was this seriously 14 thousand
6 thousand is still insanely dumb to just blow lololol I blew a grand once on a flight felt like the dumbest thing ever can’t imagine an idiot spending this much I’m curious how it was so cheap tho
He probably had some miles to use towards the cost.
Coke is more popular than Pepsi. Great video!
100%
Your videos are my go videos before i sleep..
Again an awesome video. Thanks for your always fine contributions!
Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more.

That's interesting to hear! Udon's unique texture and taste definitely deserve more recognition. Excited to see it spread more 😊
Awesome video as always! You should visit the World of Coca-Cola museum in Atlanta, Georgia someday :)
Thanks for the love! The World of Coca-Cola museum is definitely on my list. Can't wait to share that adventure with you guys.
Excited to follow along! Also, I’m not sure if “another happy landing” was a Star Wars reference or not, but it definitely reminded me of Obi Wan 😂
Of course I referenced it from my favorite movie!@@blaynesadventures
haha awesome, always happy to see a star wars quote!
My dream is to fly on the Flying Honu ! What an amazing aircraft. Thank you for sharing!
Dreaming of Flying Honu is truly wonderful! It's an amazing aircraft indeed. Glad to share!

Another enjoyable episode. The first class looked very comfortable and enjoyable
wow very nice experience friend
very nice video. One day I will get myself a 1st class ticket to somewhere far away. It looked grand.
While it was on the expensive side it was well worth it. Very luxurious. I would like to do that trip.

Have you ever considered Thailand as a Hawaii equivalent? I've been to both, & Thailand is going to be a lot cheaper overall.

Great flight ✈️ 😊but I prefer Coca-Cola, Pepsi has a weird smell and taste 🤐.
Your flight ✈️ looked really comfortable 😊
Thanks! 😃
The real question
Japan Airlines or ANA?
Amazing video. Shot using Galaxy phone?
No one can afford Hawaii anymore, not even the citizens of Hawaii. You should come to Michigan in the summer, and venture north in the state. Go across the Mackinac bridge and enjoy the beautiful beaches and everything Michigan has to offer.
Northern Michigan in the summer is something else. Great places for hiking, rustic and modern camping, cabin rentals, swimming, fishing, you name it. Camp at Interlochen state park and see the concerts put on by orchestra school students. Camp at Young state park and go out to the middle of lake Charlevoix. Camp in a rustic campground in the UP and go hiking on dodgy poorly marked trails in the most mystical of woods. Visit Lake Superior and do your damnedest to set more than your toes into its icy waters in the middle of the summer. Get your pasties at Lehto's, some smoked whitefish and cream cheese and crackers, and eat them in the overlook park. There's so much!
Nobody does it better like ANA.
Coca-Cola is the best! Thank you for another fun and interesting journey!
Oahu my home!

Just depends on your personal preference. I believe most of our fast food chains here in the U.S. sell Coke more than Pepsi so perhaps Coke is more popular for that reason. Even though neither one are really nutritionally good for you personally I'd prefer the Coca Cola in a bottle from Mexico first.

Blinis are perfectly acceptable to have with caviar. Also a bit of crème fraiche would’ve been nice.

This is similar to business class on United Arab Emirates airlines, so imagine what their first class must be like!!
Coke and Pepsi are regional. Coke is from Atlanta so that’s a Coke area. Texas is Pepsi country. The rest of the country is a mixed bag. I would say Coke is more popular. Some love Diet Coke. And others love Coke Zero. And then there is Dr Pepper:)
I'm from texas and I hate Pepsi
Dr Pepper! One of my favorites! Even the diet version is delicious!
@@stephaniemtz13applause!
Texas is definitely Coke more than Pepsi. To be even more specific we are Dr. Pepper country here. 😉
Not a bad way to fly, my friend.
Bothcolcacoke and penlish pretty good
I love First class. I have been with Thai and Lufthansa Airlines over the years. Both are great.
"That's awesome! Both airlines definitely set the bar high for first class. Thanks for sharing 😊
I am italian and I prefered Pepsi. I love Dr Pepper, but in Italy is difficult to find!
Thanks for sharing! I hope you can find Dr Pepper more easily in the future!

Southwest goes to Hawaii??
its a mixed bag hard to answer
Coca Cola is more popular here in the US. Pepsi tastes too much like liquid candy to me. I like how refreshing Coca-Cola is. Always have ❤️
Coke is more popular in the US. I drink Diet Coke which I haven’t seen in many Japan videos. Is it available there?
Why not take only shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka?
6000 for a plane ride??? whoa no way could i do that ever lol. I cant even do a few hundred at this time so lucky you guy. Looked like a awesome trip.
