Oh wow, this is a true gem. Although it is just over 2hrs of flight, looks like a perfect way to have a little and quite cheap experience with Emirates first-class product. Just checked that currently these flights go for around 530 EUR. I hope by the time I return to Asia next year, they are still going to be available.
Haha yes I know what you mean and they always complain about the vegan food being boring, well what do expect when only 1.5 % of people in the world are vegan and 50% of those are Indians which do know how to do tasty vegan food!
Yeah BKK has a long history with 5th freedom flights. There used to be many more, almost 20 years 😱back I had Finnair on BKK-HKG (MD-11) and Swiss on BKK-SIN (A340), very attractive ticket prices in Business
Awesome job 👍🏻 I recently got to fly Emirates' other fifth freedom route from Malta to Larnaca for my birthday (though sadly I was merely in Economy 😅) and it was such a fun experience in one of the comfiest Intra-European seats in the sky. Crews were phenomenal and so welcoming. 10/10 highly recommend it even if it's on their 777
I love flying wide-body aircraft on short-haul routes. I've done LHR-MAD on BA 777s and IB A350s a few times, good fun and can't beat the comfort on such short flights.
Having flown Emirates A380 long haul BC a number of times i would love to do this. Great value for money. Definately a once in a life time affordable experience.
Another way of looking at value is how much “per hour” it costs to fly. I’ll use Singapore airlines as my example. I fly the ewr to sin flight 2-3 times a year. It’s about 18 hours each way. I’ve been able to get business class seats for about 5-6k round trip. About $150/hr to fly. That’s decent value to me. I also like that this video you produced talks real money. I too… am sick and tired of TH-camrs that say “I flew this flight for just $100 and 100,000 points!!! Like we all have an endless supply or amount of points in our accounts
My supply IS almost endless and I don't have very high organic spend, I'm not a YTer, I'm just able to refer some friends and get new credit card sign-up bonuses every 3 months..
Great flight. I’m happy to see that the second best value departs from my country. Hmmm 🤔 Might have to give it a go so I can live like Yann for a day. That lounge in Bangkok was stunning btw. Thanks for sharing your flight. ✈️
There's an Emirates lounge in Sydney too! 2hr30 of flight time so similar to my flight. Make sure you reserve your shower as soon as you get on - they won't have enough slots for everyone on such a short flight!
"That lounge in Bangkok was stunning" crikey, you're easily pleased! It's pleasant enough, but the Qatar lounge at BKK is better in every way except for the provision of power outlets. (FYI, I've been in both within the past week).
There's another Emirates fifth-freedom flight: Rio de Janeiro (GIG) to Buenos Aires (EZE) or vice versa, about the same distance and duration as BKK-HKG. But it's on a 777 (and usually on an older 777-200LR). So, no on-board bar, no showers, and probably an older seat.
Yep you're correct. I think I remember not including it because it didn't have a first class cabin on that route and I was comparing the first class prices. BA also fly this exact same GIG-EZE fifth freedom route
Belvedere is simply the best vodka, I agree. Totally jealous of you. Bangkok, Hong Kong etc etc. I can’t help but think however that Emirates are a bit overstated. If I were 1st (and admittedly never have been ) I wouldn’t want the glitz.. Just the class. Just me though. Great video as ever.
The older style cabins (like in this video) are definitely showing their age and tackiness a bit. I definitely think the new cabin refurb on the A380s in F makes the cabin look a lot classier - it's in line with the design language from the game changer first class suites.
The fact that from first class lounge to landing Emirates are probably losing money on the catering alone (assuming the passenger has expensive champagne tastes like Yann) means this really is insane value. Well done on getting your money's worth 👍.
Depending on what country you're from, airline miles can be super easy to fairly difficult to earn. Also depends on how much spend you can push through a card. US probably has it the best globally.

New Subscriber 👍🏼 I think the reason for only local sockets at airports is probably so you have to buy adaptors once inside security and pay a premium for them 🔌 🤔
Hi, really interesting video, can the cash-way of getting a ticket with Emirates work from london to Dubai ? Have you got any other links which show you how to get the deal ? thankyou
That's incredible. I'd love to fly Emirates at least once in my life. Having said all that, it would be hard to avail of all the features and benefits on such a short flight. Honestly, if I had a comfortable seat and some leg room I'd be happy. All of the planes and seats I have been on so far have had neither.
Wow ! You packed a lot of activities into that 2 hour flight. I would have needed to skip the meze course at the very least, in order to fit all that in.
If you only want to connect in SFO then it looks like United is your best option. If you don't mind connecting in LAX then you can use a combination of BA/AA or Virgin/Delta.
Last August I flew on an Emirates 777 from Cebu to Dubai in first then onto New York in first on a 380 then returned from New York back to Cebu on a 380 then a 777. The 777 only has 8 first class cabins. Between Dubai and Cebu both times I was the only one in first. I was treated like a king on both flights. I paid $6500 round trip. I had saved for awhile to make it happen. As of now service from Cebu is back to the 2 class 777 (Business and Economy). Manila has a 777 with first. Bangkok to New York was a bit cheaper and you can have a 380 on both flights except for one. Do your research and you can make a dream come true. Good video.
Sounds like a great trip on nice long flights to fully enjoy the service. I've flown on the 777 in First once and I quite like having the smaller cabin. Although I still prefer the A380 any day of the week for the onboard bar and shower spa. Glad you enjoyed the video!
All of my trips on Emirates are NEW YORK to DUBAI on the A380. Business Class prices are ok but first class is astronomical. I fly Business class. Maybe someday they’ll offer me a reasonable upgrade, but for now: business class is more than enough. I don’t feel the need for the extra meal service. Being able to use the shower in the plane would definitely be a fun experience but other than that, I don’t see the necessity of spending so much money.
The prices from the USA to DXB are some of the highest on their entire network, like you say, business is definitely good enough! Fingers crossed for the upgrade 🤞
Nice review mate, you certainty packed a lot of information in for a short flight. I've been trying to place your accent but can't work it out. South African or maybe Nordic maybe I'm not even close!
Thanks for watching! I usually do prices in USD since it's the most "universal" currency that most people would understand easily. I paid for the flight in THB, it was about 21k or so. I think at the time it worked out to around £480.
I think that the question of is this a good value would be to compare it to the other seat offerings on the A380 for the same route. If Business class is around 300 and Economy is 150 for the same route, same plane, then 600 is not a bad value for first class. My question for personal value is, do I "need" the first class offerings for such a short flight. Personally, no. If I need the lounge access, usually you can purchase a day pass for a lounge, or get lounge access with Business class. But ask me on a 6 hour or longer flight if first class is worth it, I'd say first class on a long haul is worth it at any price. Now if the purpose of the flight is "I just want to experience first class on the A380" then yes, I think this is a great value for the experience.
Go on the Emirates website then search for Bangkok (BKK) to Hong Kong (HKG) in First class and pretty much every date will have this price. Let me know if you end up booking it!
So as per you, if we want to travel first class in emirates do we need to book from Dubai via BKK to HKG at 600$. Or we simply book BKK to HKG for the price of 600$?Let me know.
I shouted at the screen when you slugged that vodka shot back. Oh, to young again, and enjoy the inexperience of youth! While you're at it, you might want to learn how to shake a cocktail, that was pretty grim! Now for some truth bombs on this flight: I just did this BKK-HKG-BKK back-to-back in F on 22 April. It is good value, but 2 hours of flying time just will not give you the time to enjoy the full F experience in a full cabin. If you've done the shower before, IMO there really is no point in doing it again, although I was proactively offered it on my return HKG-BKK segment. I'm aware of at least one person doing it on the outbound BKK-HKG. I didn't bother. It's a bit of a gimmick unless you have an unexpected tight connection: that's where it comes into its own. In short, IME realistically you just cannot do shower, bar, and four course meal in 2 hours, unless you're just doing it for a few video clips, and not really savouring it. On my outbound, things were hampered by a late incoming flight which consequently delayed boarding: it was a terrible boarding experience, penned in for some time at the gate at BKK waiting for the aircraft to be ready. This is my second time on this flight, the first time being about 8 years ago, when things were a little less manic. In an effort for a timely departure, pushback began with people still wondering about the cabin and washrooms, not helped with a fair degree of cabin tourism going on. The crew were just too busy to control it. I managed to get as far as completing my first course, the caviar, before I was informed there wasn't enough time to make it any more than one further course, so, knowing I'd be coming back later, I quit my lunch altogether and headed to the bar for a badly made expresso martini. There's so little time that for the second half of the flight the bar area is already full of crew desperately trying to secure the cabin ready for landing, so it's not a particularly convivial place to be. On my return segment HKG-BKK, things were a little less manic, thanks to on time departure and about 20 minutes more time scheduled in the air. I managed caviar, mezze and cheese as well as trip to the bar to shake my own espresso martini (and a much better one it was too as a result). The crew were again battling to secure the cabin though, so it really wasn't the best environment for an after dinner drink. In conclusion, I don't remember these segments being so disorganised the first time I experienced them all those years ago, but I don't think it was a full cabin back then, and probably the influencer/Instagram brigade hadn't cottoned on either. The crew were great, and it is good value, but my caveat is that two hours is not enough time to genuinely enjoy it, it's very much a compromised experience. My highlights: the caviar courses, and no fewer than two, yes TWO, 2012 Corton-Charlemagnes to try with the cheese. Unexpected disappointment: the Arabic mezze course; in comparison, the Qatar business class mezze, while not as extensive, is far more tasty.
I'm curious if the price has changed after people watching all of the reviews on TH-cam 😂 I'm looking a year out from now and the flight costs $900 at the cheapest..
odd how some people will pay a lot for airlines ------ was an art director worked on BA virgin and american airlines over the years many clients worldwide .......... for many years some customers were ridiculously loyal to one airline /// by mid 90s and I was advertising them felt airlines were taking advantage somewhat ..... then around 2000 customers got more savvy and became incredibly unloyal .... put this down to internet ..... as the more unloyal you became on things such as loyalty schemes the more benefits you were sent .... mad ... was on virgins first flight to NY .... had double gin glass champagne and fell asleep missed a party apparently ..... hey ho ... RB was around .... never met him .... funny really yeah he advertises your airline zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Keep in mind earlier this year the same flight cost 35% less folks. These videos will jack up the price in a few short months. Book yours now while its still affordable 😂
I'm in agreement with you... this is excellent value for what is included. The lounge and the onboard service are top notch!
If only the flight was an hour longer it would be perfect! The service in Emirates First is always excellent in my experience.
Oh wow, this is a true gem. Although it is just over 2hrs of flight, looks like a perfect way to have a little and quite cheap experience with Emirates first-class product. Just checked that currently these flights go for around 530 EUR. I hope by the time I return to Asia next year, they are still going to be available.
So nice to watch someone enjoying the full experience and ordering real food (not vegan like other reviewers). Keep it up Yann!
Glad you enjoyed the video!! Hahaha I'll be ordering the full menu every time, that won't be changing. Thanks for watching!
Haha yes I know what you mean and they always complain about the vegan food being boring, well what do expect when only 1.5 % of people in the world are vegan and 50% of those are Indians which do know how to do tasty vegan food!
Yeah BKK has a long history with 5th freedom flights. There used to be many more, almost 20 years 😱back I had Finnair on BKK-HKG (MD-11) and Swiss on BKK-SIN (A340), very attractive ticket prices in Business
Had to look up the pictures of the Finnair MD-11!! Prices out of BKK are usually pretty great - can't wait to return.
Awesome job 👍🏻 I recently got to fly Emirates' other fifth freedom route from Malta to Larnaca for my birthday (though sadly I was merely in Economy 😅) and it was such a fun experience in one of the comfiest Intra-European seats in the sky. Crews were phenomenal and so welcoming. 10/10 highly recommend it even if it's on their 777
I love flying wide-body aircraft on short-haul routes. I've done LHR-MAD on BA 777s and IB A350s a few times, good fun and can't beat the comfort on such short flights.
Larnaca to Malta is €1500 or £1200 one-way!
Having flown Emirates A380 long haul BC a number of times i would love to do this. Great value for money. Definately a once in a life time affordable experience.
Great stuff. Just booked this for my wife's 50th birthday treat in November (and return on Xmas Day for good measure).
I liked you and your video of a first class flight !
Very well presented.
Thanks - glad you enjoyed!
Excellent video! i would stay awake and enjoy the whole experience!
Thank you! Someone on my flight went straight to sleep and skipped the meal service!
Emirates A380, First Class: CHC (New Zealand) - Sydney: $1000 for 3:20 hours long flight. Good deal too ;)
Thank you so much for this tip, I may even change my plans of my next trip to try this one out! It's just such an amazing value for that money.
Another way of looking at value is how much “per hour” it costs to fly. I’ll use Singapore airlines as my example. I fly the ewr to sin flight 2-3 times a year. It’s about 18 hours each way. I’ve been able to get business class seats for about 5-6k round trip. About $150/hr to fly. That’s decent value to me. I also like that this video you produced talks real money.

My supply IS almost endless and I don't have very high organic spend, I'm not a YTer, I'm just able to refer some friends and get new credit card sign-up bonuses every 3 months..
I don't think $/hr is the best metric once you get above flights of 12 hours then the dollar per hour exponentially goes down.
Great trip review. Great value indeed. I subscribed. 🥂
Always happy to see your handsome face.... Nice review as always 😊
Glad you enjoyed the video - already working on the next one!
Great flight. I’m happy to see that the second best value departs from my country. Hmmm 🤔 Might have to give it a go so I can live like Yann for a day. That lounge in Bangkok was stunning btw. Thanks for sharing your flight. ✈️

Oh Wow! 2 of my favourite cities., Will definitely have to book this! OMG return is only £710! booked !
And this beautiful flower 🥰🌷

3:36 If you're wondering why international power sockets are hit or miss, it's because of what the airport's local electrical and fire codes allow 🔌
The fact that from first class lounge to landing Emirates are probably losing money on the catering alone (assuming the passenger has expensive champagne tastes like Yann) means this really is insane value. Well done on getting your money's worth 👍.
Thanks for posting this. Because of your video I’m taking this flight in 2 days! 🎉
Amazing, enjoy!!
Not one of those silly "I only paid 100$ for this" videos of people spending airline miles of hundreds of thousands of dollars already spent.
Those miles aren’t that hard to earn though
Yep exactly, I love the fact you can fly this cash only (without points) on pretty much any date for the same price.
Depending on what country you're from, airline miles can be super easy to fairly difficult to earn. Also depends on how much spend you can push through a card. US probably has it the best globally.

Wow....... its a good idea to experience emirates first class, definitely i will try it as soon as possible
Amazing, enjoy the flight! It's a lot to fit in 2 hours but a great experience regardless.
Hi, really interesting video, can the cash-way of getting a ticket with Emirates work from london to Dubai ?
Have you got any other links which show you how to get the deal ? thankyou
Do they not have a self serve bar for first class anymore?
That's incredible. I'd love to fly Emirates at least once in my life. Having said all that, it would be hard to avail of all the features and benefits on such a short flight. Honestly, if I had a comfortable seat and some leg room I'd be happy. All of the planes and seats I have been on so far have had neither.

Thanks for watching 🙏
The cheapest Emirates First A380 route is actually CHC-SYD coming in at around 700usd for a 3.5 hour flight as of this week.
Paid $900 a year ago. Now it's $1000.
Wow ! You packed a lot of activities into that 2 hour flight. I would have needed to skip the meze course at the very least, in order to fit all that in.
You also get the amenity kit and pajama?
I found a better value would be $881 for a return first class ticket from Bangkok to Hongkong...you cant beat that ever
Do you have any advice for a flight from Heathrow to san francisco then honolulu regards
If you only want to connect in SFO then it looks like United is your best option. If you don't mind connecting in LAX then you can use a combination of BA/AA or Virgin/Delta.
...and off to google flights to find a flight to BKK we go!
Enjoy - Bangkok and Hong Kong are both great cities!
Dudes metabolism is off the charts 😳
Haha I loved how u downed the shot of vodka! I made a whole video on how airlines serve caviar and what’s the appropriate way to eat them ! 😃
It's always a good idea to fly emrites
Grated egg whites ? That could be fun to make.
Keep it up mate! You'll have more subscribers than Trek Trendy one day, trust me!

Enjoy the A380 Hong Kong - Bangkok route while it lasts! I fly a380 is the wifi pw lol!
I'm traveling to Asia next year so I went looking for this flight, but sadly it's 1000 usd on any date :(

The prices from the USA to DXB are some of the highest on their entire network, like you say, business is definitely good enough! Fingers crossed for the upgrade 🤞
Did they weigh your cabin luggage?
Nice review mate, you certainty packed a lot of information in for a short flight. I've been trying to place your accent but can't work it out. South African or maybe Nordic maybe I'm not even close!
He is British but I can't pick the county. Not a northerner, that's for sure, so he's from south of Birmingham.
Nice video! But champagne always on the left hand :)
wow superb
Great video just wish the cost information was also in £ 🇬🇧 currency.
Thanks for watching! I usually do prices in USD since it's the most "universal" currency that most people would understand easily. I paid for the flight in THB, it was about 21k or so. I think at the time it worked out to around £480.
@@FlyManYann no worries pal.. Thankyou for that and keep making these great videos 😀
Put "600 USD in pounds" in the search bar - don't even need to find a currency conversion website. I use Google constantly to convert.
I think that the question of is this a good value would be to compare it to the other seat offerings on the A380 for the same route. If Business class is around 300 and Economy is 150 for the same route, same plane, then 600 is not a bad value for first class. My question for personal value is, do I "need" the first class offerings for such a short flight. Personally, no. If I need the lounge access, usually you can purchase a day pass for a lounge, or get lounge access with Business class. But ask me on a 6 hour or longer flight if first class is worth it, I'd say first class on a long haul is worth it at any price. Now if the purpose of the flight is "I just want to experience first class on the A380" then yes, I think this is a great value for the experience.
How to do it?
Great video! Any tips on finding this flight and Insane price?
Go on the Emirates website then search for Bangkok (BKK) to Hong Kong (HKG) in First class and pretty much every date will have this price. Let me know if you end up booking it!
So as per you, if we want to travel first class in emirates do we need to book from Dubai via BKK to HKG at 600$. Or we simply book BKK to HKG for the price of 600$?Let me know.
You can simply book the BKK-HKG leg on its own for $600. That's the great thing with fifth freedom flights.
@@FlyManYannThis Fifth Freedom Flights are still active on the above route correct? So I book them directly?
Random q but how do you afford all these expensive trips? What do you do as a job?
I shouted at the screen when you slugged that vodka shot back. Oh, to young again, and enjoy the inexperience of youth! While you're at it, you might want to learn how to shake a cocktail, that was pretty grim!
Now for some truth bombs on this flight: I just did this BKK-HKG-BKK back-to-back in F on 22 April.
It is good value, but 2 hours of flying time just will not give you the time to enjoy the full F experience in a full cabin.
If you've done the shower before, IMO there really is no point in doing it again, although I was proactively offered it on my return HKG-BKK segment. I'm aware of at least one person doing it on the outbound BKK-HKG. I didn't bother. It's a bit of a gimmick unless you have an unexpected tight connection: that's where it comes into its own.
In short, IME realistically you just cannot do shower, bar, and four course meal in 2 hours, unless you're just doing it for a few video clips, and not really savouring it.
On my outbound, things were hampered by a late incoming flight which consequently delayed boarding: it was a terrible boarding experience, penned in for some time at the gate at BKK waiting for the aircraft to be ready. This is my second time on this flight, the first time being about 8 years ago, when things were a little less manic. In an effort for a timely departure, pushback began with people still wondering about the cabin and washrooms, not helped with a fair degree of cabin tourism going on. The crew were just too busy to control it.
I managed to get as far as completing my first course, the caviar, before I was informed there wasn't enough time to make it any more than one further course, so, knowing I'd be coming back later, I quit my lunch altogether and headed to the bar for a badly made expresso martini. There's so little time that for the second half of the flight the bar area is already full of crew desperately trying to secure the cabin ready for landing, so it's not a particularly convivial place to be.
On my return segment HKG-BKK, things were a little less manic, thanks to on time departure and about 20 minutes more time scheduled in the air. I managed caviar, mezze and cheese as well as trip to the bar to shake my own espresso martini (and a much better one it was too as a result). The crew were again battling to secure the cabin though, so it really wasn't the best environment for an after dinner drink.
In conclusion, I don't remember these segments being so disorganised the first time I experienced them all those years ago, but I don't think it was a full cabin back then, and probably the influencer/Instagram brigade hadn't cottoned on either. The crew were great, and it is good value, but my caveat is that two hours is not enough time to genuinely enjoy it, it's very much a compromised experience. My highlights: the caviar courses, and no fewer than two, yes TWO, 2012 Corton-Charlemagnes to try with the cheese. Unexpected disappointment: the Arabic mezze course; in comparison, the Qatar business class mezze, while not as extensive, is far more tasty.
Sublime
Emirates First is always a great experience
You missed the Rio - Buenos Aires 5th Freedom Flight
I got an ad for Qatar winning the Skytrax vote while watching this video
I'm curious if the price has changed after people watching all of the reviews on TH-cam 😂
I'm looking a year out from now and the flight costs $900 at the cheapest..
nvm after seeing the video maybe atick to business and economy
Try eating the caviar without all of the accoutrement.
Guess I need to book another first class flight now! I'll try it on the next one 🫡
@@FlyManYann 👍👍
What's his IG? I'd love to follow this handsome guy! Always great reviews - refreshing from the others...
Haven't set up the IG yet, I'll make sure to include links in an upcoming video once it's all sorted! And thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed :)
I think I saw you in the airport😮
No way haha! In BKK? What month were you travelling?
900 USD as of today
You're so cute! Ryan Philippe slash Justin Timberlake :) I love you :)
odd how some people will pay a lot for airlines ------ was an art director worked on BA virgin and american airlines over the years many clients worldwide .......... for many years some customers were ridiculously loyal to one airline /// by mid 90s and I was advertising them felt airlines were taking advantage somewhat ..... then around 2000 customers got more savvy and became incredibly unloyal .... put this down to internet ..... as the more unloyal you became on things such as loyalty schemes the more benefits you were sent .... mad ... was on virgins first flight to NY .... had double gin glass champagne and fell asleep missed a party apparently ..... hey ho ... RB was around .... never met him .... funny really yeah he advertises your airline zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
If you want to make back your money have a couple glasses of Hennessey Paradis at US$1200 a bottle.
I've forgotten to do this every time I've flown Emirates First and always remember as I'm walking off the plane. One day I'll remember!!
It's Not a "secret route" 🥴
10.08 Only a true Bogan would brainlessly garnish Caviar.
And only a true Bogan will label someone else a bogan. If you had a modicum of sophistication, you would shut your gob.
Emirates have now increased this to £1200 return cos TH-camrs like you keep yapping on about it
Shallot not shallet 😂😂
Woops ahaha 🥴
It's not a secret... I have done it just over a year ago...
you should wear a shirt! you are on first class...you look ridiculous with your T shirt!
I'm surprised for an airline from a Muslim country that they serve alcohol.
Total decadence - but without someone in front of me to break bread with- looks more lonely and gluttonous .
Awful tasteless VULGAR cheap looking decor.
Keep in mind earlier this year the same flight cost 35% less folks. These videos will jack up the price in a few short months. Book yours now while its still affordable 😂
