    I love ANA business class. I absolutely understand your thoughts on the Japanese experience and style, and I love it. Its weirdly dated and modern at the same time. It is the only airline that has ever acknowledged a birthday when we were flying (my husband's) and provided a small cake, lovely handwritten note from the crew, and several swag items - including an small inflatable ANA plane that I keep on my desk to this day.

    I recently flew ANA business from Syd to Haneda and back. Sure it has an understated elegance but the service, food, staff and flat beds were incredible. No pretentiousness whatsoever. Service wise I thought better than Emirates. Flying again from Syd to london - retuning london, Haneda for two weeks then Syd in August 24. Can’t wait. Thanks for the review Dan, your review is what made me fly them above Emirates and Qantas! Keep up the fab work as always ❤️

    Flew their business class from Narita to JFK a few years ago. Got a window seat in a section that only had ONE row, almost felt like a private flight! FA was super welcoming (she spoke good English but me speaking fluid Japanese also helped I suppose) and the food was amazing. I also got a handwritten card with the cabin crews signatures for my birthday that was A FEW DAYS BEFORE the flight. Such an amazing experience!

    Almost flying with ANA exclusively for the past 8 years (except 3 years COVID) for my trip back to China & always do layover in Japan. Even if their staggered seats of 77W/789 are quite old, their service are top notch & extremely consistent. Do look forward to fly with their new "the Room" business class

  • @srogierp1
    @srogierp1 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    FYI, there are two lay outs for the long haul 787-9. One has 11 rows and the other has 13 rows. Seat 9A doesn't exist in the latter configuration. The seat number in that row is 9C and this is an aisle seat. 9K is a good choice in this 787-9 lay out as this is a window seat next to the engine as I understand. Just booked a flight on NH 218 from Munich to Tokyo and chose this seat.

    ANA is a strong contender for my favourite J product. So long as you get a true window seat, (or a throne on the 787-8) the staggered layout is very comfortable and private. ANA service has always been both typically polite for Japan but also warmer and more personable than on JL in my opinion.

    I love your videos, thank you. A little suggestion: You might want to consider to insert 4-5 seconds black at the end, as the watcher can like your video before another video automatically starts. To realize that the video is over, to switch from fullscreen to normal and then clicking the like button, takes a few seconds. You might get some more viewers to click that like button, if you give them the chance to. ;)

    I think taking an ANA flight gives me the same comfort and safety as when I take a SAS flight. Hard to describe it, the air in the cabin is so….serene. Since I’m Japanese, I get more excited by SAS, though!

    I was in HND's ANA lounge last September. Such a good experience after a long flight from Chicago (I flew on JL in Economy, and I befriended a couple passengers during my 8-hour layover there whom happened to have an extra admission for the lounge available). Much-needed shower in one of their fully-equipped bathrooms, as much beer as I wanted, and a place to let the time go by until my next flight to Bangkok.

    @CostcoSamurai 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I think I like this older version of business class, for me it feels a bit more comfortable compared to the new "Room" seating. Also with all the travelers I feel ANA service is a bit overwhelmed with all the frequent flyer travelers as I notice airport lounges are getting much more congested in Tokyo and business class is becoming a new norm. However, ANA is still one of my top airlines next to JAL. Thanks for the nice video.

    Ah for anyone wanting to stay overnight at Haneda I recently stayed at the Villa Fontaine Premier (not quite in the terminal but in the attached Haneda Airport Garden shopping centre which is connected via a walkway - no going outside! Probably 5 minutes walk from arrivals) and it's far superior to the Royal Park and I think it was a similar price when I stayed

  • @sitchad
    @sitchad ปีที่แล้ว +1

    We have taken ANA to Japan several times in business class and it is without a doubt our favorite airline. The service, crew, seat wow, anything you want anytime. Once we took my daughter with us to Tokyo and during the flight, we had bad turbulence, and my daughter was scared and crying but two flight attendants stayed with her which was so great since she was in a window seat. Funny we stay at the Royal Park Hotel in Tokyo and absolutely love it. Great video.

  • @gaijinsan5809
    @gaijinsan5809 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Quite interesting, I didn't realize the seats on the 787-8 and -9 were so different. I hadn't flown ANA business for quite a few years until May this year. It was a 797-9 MNL-HND and I hated it, I actually wrote about their substandard business class seat they've installed for low yield intra-Asia routes. Well seems from your video that your SYD flight was exactly the same craptastic seat. I despise a seat that doesn't have independent seat bottom and leg rest controls from the seat back. That ANA 797-9 seat is either up or down, and some random point between for lounging that some engineer decided was comfortable. There's no customization at all.
    After seeing your video I realized all of my previous flights had been on the 787-8 or 777-300ER and the seat is much more customizable. I actually told ANA the 787-9 seat feels like an LCC business class seat.
