I’m a member of the Qantas ground staff at Sydney airport, and when we were in training we were given tours of all the aircrafts Qantas operates out of Sydney, but the only cockpit we got to see was the A380 and it was absolutely marvellous!!!
It must be overwhelming. Total respect to A380 pilots!
I’ve only been in an A380 once. It was British Airways LAX-LHR and even though I went economy, I managed an exit row seat so there was good leg room. I loved the A380 and can’t wait to go again. I really enjoy the review videos. My favorite so far is Emirates
The pilot was dying inside when you cracked that joke mate, you killed him
Qantas Australia got No. 1 world award for safest and best airline again in 2020.. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👏👏👏👌👌
Wow a nervous flyer!? What a nice revelation. I'm a retired airline pilot and I agree with you only flying tried and true airlines! Love your videos
Thank you for your kind comment. Always nice to to see that airline pilots are watching my clips :). What airline did you fly for?
US Airways
No I didn't
Michael Jackson I wanna be a pilot :D
Michael Jackson I want to be a Boeing 747-8i driver Brisbane to LAX
11;16 ,I like that part when the pilots gave him a tour in the cockpit. This shows that how much kind Qantas and the Australians are.I like Qantas beside Emirates and I also like Australia beside UAE.
Bruh as an Australian I’ve never flown on Quantas
Qantas airlines is my favorite airlines one time I'm had traveled in Qantas economy class from Sunday to Dubai There services and food are amazing
I agree with you too. This is the plane I flew in when I went for my big OE in 2016 from Sydney to New York and was economy class as well.
I love the feel of taking off but not landing, and i love watching it all happening on the screen
Out of all airlines i have flew with Qantas have so far been the best airline i have flew with and will always be my favourate airline.
How do you know that it will ALWAYS be your favourite airline? It`s like an english football player once said: I never predict anything and I never will. ;-)
Such an impressive narration mate, I’m just tempted and convinced. My next flight must be with Qantas.
I never thought the a380 was this luxurious I notice Qantas but never thought about their service being this professional and sophisticated. The lounge was very nice the look of a restaurant makes it even more seductive, I never been to australia but hope to visit someday. Get back to your seat thanks for the tour.
I like how you don't rush your videos, I'm able to absorb it all properly and I love the soft music. Thanks for sharing
This was fantastic thank you, I aspire to travel this way one day. Brilliant filming.
Thank you for your generous comment.
the Luxury Travel Expert well i'm very close to dubi im in morocco
it is amazing to think about the engineering involved for the wings to support those huge engines ! good show .
matthew kluge I believe the whole wing is made in the UK then carefully transported to France for assembly.
Humans are amazing, you know to make a machine even close to being capable of what the human brain can do you would need a warehouse full of giant computers.
Friction Stir Welding ;-)
JarJarStinks is a great day
MrFalcon2001 god doesn't exist kid
I do take safety into account. That is why when I am with my family we only fly on LH, Swiss, Austrian and KLM. I choose Lufthansa group for their stellar pilots and child friendly measures.
don't be a nervous flyer,just enjoy the ride...CHEERS
WOW!!WHAT A BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like to say a big thank you for your Videos, absolutely stunning footage with perfect backdrops. I hope one day you do Jamaica because it has some of the best hotels In the Caribbean
My first international and only one flight was emirates from mumbai to London via Dubai!! U r blessed
Why do I love this cabin more than the newer, flashier first class seats? It's perfect!
Excellent review. The food looked fantastic. Qantas do have a unique first class in my view on the A380, its a little more crowded than others, par BA. But the turning seats are interesting. The caviar tartlet looked wonderful.
I had this service booked in October but had to push it back to March, so i'm really looking forward to it now.
Great report as always, Merry Christmas to you.
Thanks. Merry Christmas to you as well, and safe travels. By the way, how was Cape Town? :)
I've not been just yet, going in January. But really looking forward to it.
Great vlog, thanks! Very thorough. I have been lucky enough to travel first class three times on Qantas with frequent flyer upgrades. Hopefully upgraded again when we’re off to London next April from Melbourne, Australia. Well worth the strive for points. At this stage I only travel Qantas.
Thank you for your kind comment
My favorite airline? A whole lot of people are going to disagree with me for reasons I know, but it's Delta Airlines. This is purely personal and sentimental. I was born in New Orleans and grew up in a little town near Baton Rouge. Delta started as a crop dusting company in Louisiana. When I was a kid, they were the only airline we had. The first time I got on a plane was also the first time I was traveling by myself. I was 12 years old, flying from Baton Rouge to Miami to visit my aunt and uncle. Bear in mind that this was in the mid 70's when airline passengers dressed up for the occasion. So there was twelve-year-old me. In a suit. By myself. Flying for the first time. The captain, the co-pilot and all the flight attendants made those flights so much fun for me that I'll never forget it. (That's flights -- plural. It's Delta. I had to change planes in Atlanta. Around here we say that, when you die, it doesn't matter whether you're going to Heaven or Hell. You still have to go through Atlanta.) On the way back, we took off from Miami to Atlanta -- but Atlanta got shut down because of bad weather and we got diverted to Tampa. So I spent like four solid hours getting a tour of all the behind the scenes stuff at the airport in Tampa before they decided to fly me back to Miami until the weather in Atlanta cleared up. Oddly, that was the most incredible part of the whole trip. Later, when I got into Harvard, I needed a summer job and applied to be a baggage handler for Delta in Baton Rouge. I didn't take that job because something better came along. Still. That first time flying was with Delta, and it meant a lot, and their folks made it fun for me when it could have been scary, so if I run into the occasional customer service problem with Delta (and I do), I just treat that as them tapping into a well of goodwill they earned with me when I was a kid. (I'm 57 going on 58 now.)
Your experience may be different, that's fine, that's your experience with Delta, and I totally understand. I'm just speaking about me, and I'm biased. Which I fully admit.
Lovely work done this trip, can't wait for my next trip. I love qantas first class
You must have an incredible charm. So far I have never been left in the cockpit, maybe it was also in business class.
Great review and great insights! I like your videos very much. Happy new year from Germany, Stefan
Thank you ,Stefan, and happy new year to you as well
the flight attendants are not pretty !! Such a company should have stunning women, I think!
@@melissaferreira123 WTF??
the bench where you put your feet up is bigger than an economy seat
Wow! I am amazed by the service and quality of Qantas for some reason. Cool!
Qantas-my very favourite airline, though I’ve only flown it once (Dallas-Sydney). As you say, incredible flight crew-literally the best service I’ve ever had. I was in ‘coach’ and they gave me a free full row of empty seat to make a bed out of. Normally, they are supposed to charge $ for that service, I believe. But they knew I had had a very long travel day (Toronto to Dallas-7 hour layover, then Dallas to Sydney) so they were very, very kind.
Why do people give a thumbs down on a very nice video? Jealousy perhaps?
No, maybe they fly with Emirates.
I do now
David T. I based my "thumbs down" on the quality of the video. Far too much time spent on things other than the cabin and the service, shaky camera work, the list goes on.
Who was watching this in July 2020?????????
Seeing the economy class thinking social distancing
Uploaded 2016 LOL
their landing music is very well -timed!
One of the best travelogues I have seen, I felt I was there with you. As I reached the end, I felt relaxed after my wonderful 'flight'. It is no wonder why I also like to fly Qantas, although not First Class. Thank you and keep up the wonderful work.
Thank you for your generous comment
And finally....a terrific video...one of the best !
Thank you :)
Drinking game: Take a shot everytime you read "A380"
A380
Seriously?!?
the flight attendants are not pretty !! Such a company should have stunning women, I think!
I flew this same flight first class using AA miles 10 days before your flight and have to say I wholeheartedly agree, the staff was very pleasant and attentive as well as the Emirates lounge amenities were insanely good. also the first class lounge for emirates in London was great on the flight to Dubai but since Qantas is a one world airline I hopped between the AA/BA/EK lounges.
I am such a nervous flyer. My first 3 flights all had frightening occurrences which set me up for fear of future flights. The first was the plane caught fire. Big fire. Luckily we had not taken off yet. The second was a horrific landing which caused the plane to nearly crash. The third was turbulence so strong things were flying around. But I continue to fly. I really like these videos. Thank you
Can't believe you're a nervous flyer...! Fantastic video as always, truly inspirational.
Thank you!
Paul's Trip Reports hey paul
@@luxurytravelexpert emirates is my favorite airline it is a bit luxurious
Seriously, as an Australian, I fly Qantas whenever possible. They are definitely a safe airline, with no major blemishes.
United Computers its profiting u know right now
"safe airline" is a big word the use, i would not say that about Qantas
No major blemishes!!!!!!! ..... Well .......... except John Travolta ............... but other than that ............. lol
Hello Quincy Martina, why do you believe this please?
Watching The Take Off through the screen is my favorite part Amazing. It’s One of my most favorite times when I’m Traveling crazy right????
I've flown on the Qantas A380 First Class twice and found it to be a very good experience. There are always going to be better examples from time to time and Qantas will probably upgrade at some point and turn the tide. This happens in the airline industry all the time. Apart from a few cosmetic differences the overall experience between Qantas and Emirates was much the same; both very good. I wouldn't 'avoid Qantas like the plague'. It has been in the top ten in the ratings for many years for good reason.
Oh, and I always go window side during my flights.
anon _rah same here
giving you a thumbs up just cuz I like your youtube ID....
whew! After viewing your Etihad First class experience just prior to this one, I daresay it makes it look like Qantas has some catching up to do. Still nice, though!
gomphrena -beautiful flower-
Massive price difference though. This seat gives you all the comforts for 1/2 the price.
I know what you mean though. I’ve never thought the Qantas product on the A380 as very luxurious.
Safest airline in the world though!
Qantas sucks. I’m ashamed to have it as our national airline. Don’t fly with Qantas, trust me.
@@rebeccarachel243 Care to elaborate?
@@loljk233 staff were really rude, seats were crowded... just prefer other airlines.
@@rebeccarachel243 anecdotal, bet you were a bit of a bitch, takes two too tango honey
I always love to fly in those small interesting internal airlines as they tend to have some of the more interesting aircraft. Sometimes it can be an interesting flight. Love the upload.
Wow! Amazing you got in the cockpit. Hopefully one day i can also take a look in there.
Everytime I see you upload a new video, I get so happy.
Well thank you! Always happy to read your comments here. Enjoy British Columbia :)

Right now I fly Emirates and Etihad. I have been to both airport and Dubai there is much more to do especially on a long layover. Abu Dhabi is just not as nice. I have flown both first, business and economy. I think Emirates economy, both etihad and Emirates business and Emirates and etihad first they are both magnificent airlines!👩🏽✈️👨🏼✈️✈️🛫🛬🛩💺
Great video tour of the A380! I really appreciate the commentary captions, and closeups of the menu. You chose everything I would have chosen. :)
very nice and detailed video, thank you, I really enjoyed it !
Its not every day you see two A-380's right next to each other.
Unless if it’s Terminal 3 Dubai Airport
i love the emirates and etihad
Hamsah Paglas who dosent?
IAmTheOne5 I don't, simply because religion plays a part in the treatment one gets. I.e no drinks served from bottles during ramadan. Religion is for those who want it but when pushed down nonbelievers' throats, it goes too far......and all that plastic wood and fake gold reminds me of a Trump setting which I personally find tasteless! ...and who prefers chicken sausages over pork ones??? Quite insular and primitive no matter what the trappings!!!
Both of those airlines are currently outclassed by Qatar Airways
Understated La Première will remain the best kept secret.
Qantas First is a top notch flying experience , flying Concorde thirty years ago this year from London to New York was a experience like no other . I feel fortunate to have have flown this iconic aeroplane and experienced a take off speed and inclination more akin to a rocket lifting off , truly memorable .
Seriously,you flew with the Concorde? Well that's amazing,I wish I had this experience! 👍
@@ronp.6782 Yes , was a once life time experience - take off was more like a rocket ship ! It was about 3half hours . Then on same ticket was a helicoptor flight into downtown NYC
I'm like you a nervous person when it comes to planes so all the people out there who hate landing or taking off think of something you will do while your there and close your eyes it really does help.
What a great flight. Now I can see why QANTAS charges much. But that PTV screen seems to be very small for such a large suit. How big is the screen?
the screen is 17 inch
But screens major portion is covered black
I think in terms of luxury, Emirates had the edge on their A380 first class. This looks wrote plain in comparison.
Mania28 i agree. Emirates has a full closed suit, showers, bar, better lighting, nit picking in a way but yep.
Mania28 there style is modernist, emirates cabins are really tacky.

Emirates is pompous overbearing bling bling. I fly economy because I'm worth it!
Mania28 still beats shitty economy class
I love the A380 aircraft, I’ve only flown first class with Emirates though (by default, long story) it was only a short 3-4 hour flight but I loved it. I’m a nervous flyer too, I hope to do Qantas First Class one day from Dubai to London, your video has inspired me to try it. 😊😊😊👍 Thank you
Great video man! thanks for shareing your trip from Dubai to London 👍👍👍
You're welcome
Etihad is my favorite airline (because it was the first time i enjoyed economy class)
Qatar has also a quite good economy class, am i right? I’m flying Qatar airways my first time next year.
@@robin4888 torilla tavataan
@@robin4888 You will be glad.
I flew with both Qatar Airways and Etihad on their economy A380. They're both pretty good, with minor differences. Personally I prefer Etihad but Qatar is also amazing.
My favourite airplanes are: Emirates,Qatar Airways,Singapore Airlanes,Ethiad,Qantas,Turkish Ailanes
Love your videos! Thank you to show us, (the ones that can't afford one of those wonderful flights) !
That lighting at 4:33 is so pretty.
9:30 Garuda Indonesia

Keep watching such type of videos as they combine both calming scenes & relaxing music.
It's time to well use TH-cam for constructive purposes.
Always very informative, thank you!
you're welcome :)
This is true heaven on Earth and the sky. ❤️
QANTAS !!! PROUDLY AUSTRALIAN !!!
Pity it's crap compared to the other major airlines. They have a lot catching up to do to compete on the same level of luxury
My favorite airline is jetBlue because of their new accommodations jetBlue Mint
Excellent video. Thank you!
Very nice flight! Thanks!
I got lost when it said "To skip the lounge, go to 5'(ft) 32"(in)
5 minutes, 32 seconds is what is meant for skipping ahead....
My favorite airlines is Aeroflot
Steve Nugget Hi
Jawad seghroushni Saw it too
Great videos, calm and informative...great job!
thx
I love these videos and aviation is simply amazing!
Mohsin Afzal
my favourite airline is SWISS 😁☺️
Western airlines just don't get it compared to Singapore/Etihad/Emirates - maybe more expensive labour costs
beautifully done.
Phenomenal trip report! Great work! :)
you have to fly in Etihad Residence on the A380
I already did: th-cam.com/video/WuxTWr2Ol44/w-d-xo.html
Glad that fly got stuck on the tail cam only for the final few minutes , would've been annoying if there the whole flight.
I thought it was a mosquito!
how thoughtful and polite if the captain to grant you access to the flight deck before departure.
Loving your material and edits! Thanks
Bernie in sydney
my favourite is Emirates airline
ARC Aviation
Says a lot about you

United Computers how does your tongue get stuck in your cheek?
I really like your format and layout with facts placed in here and there. This is great! I enjoy your channel the most when it comes to flight reviews.
Thank you for your very kind comment!
Brilliant video I just love aviaton
I'm a nervous flyer, I'll only go with Boeing 737's because I feel really safe on them
P.S my favourite airline is Thomson because there my local airliner and Thomson are the only airline that fly to Hotel Flamingo Oasis!

Olufemi Igbekele And norwegian
I'd get lost in the plane 😅
Great work, pal! Happy holidays
Love the safety video
To call it a suite is also a misnomer. It's more of a shell.
Qantas staff are unrefined: The lady who escorted you to your seat simply left your boarding pass there and walked off. That is not 'first class'.
Very unluxurious, compared to Etihad, Emirates, Sinapore etc. Quantas needs to rethink it's 1st....
Yea true...no matter what though Qatar always has a special place in my heart
I thought the same, it reminds me of the cubicles in my high school library and that’s going back to 1995 lol. I think Emirates are the market leaders in first & business class luxury these days
@Anth09 Gaming lol it's one letter!
Superb luxury travel video
Thanks for the very comprehensive view of the First suite and the QF380 as I'll be on the same flight in a few months.
Thank you. Enjoy your flight (you will love the Qantas experience), and safe & happy travels
Thank-you for the video, you just saved me thousands of dollars.
1) SAFETY - unlike many airlines, Australian and New Zealand commercial pilots spend an enormous amount of time and money gaining flying experience in multiple types of aircraft. This is done via the military or regional airlines. They need this experience just to get the opportunity to get an entry level job with the major carriers. Airmanship and learning how to really fly the plane without all the modern equipment is a strong focus. Many of the fast growing airlines have pilots with hardly any experience before moving to commercial airliners.
2) QANTAS FIRST CLASS - Well this was VERY DISAPPOINTING. The standard seems MUCH HIGHER with many other airlines. Your meal looked like a school project. The service staff looked like they tolerated you. Qantas First Class, lets just call it Premium Business instead. Where has the Krug or Dom Perignon gone, where is the wonderful Australian lobsters etc.This flight costs around $7,500 AUD.
True (y)
Quantas A380 1st class is very 'ordinary' compared to Singapore Airlines.
Looks like a public library cubicle
Thank you very much for your videos, very nicely done. I especially look forward to the seating arrangements and the food, what choices are made and how it's presented. My first trip aboard Qantas in First! Enjoyed it very much :)
This looks amazing
Delta Primal hey,cv
Qantas is my favourite my dad or a engineer for them
The reason Qantas have this record is because most accidents occur on start and landing the average flight is 2 hours the average Qantas flight is 8 hours. That means all the other airlines have 4 times more starts and landings.
Uno G well that fact is just plain wrong and stupid
I agree MrLockcaps
it's really only the international flights that last 8 hours
the domestic flights are shorter and there are so many more of them than international so that fact is actually a piece of shit from someone who just doesn't want to admit that Qantas is the safest
OpTic Hippo
Have look at a map and find out where Australia is situated and you'll understand why the average Qantas flight is 8 hrs.
And yes but Qantas has a shit ton of short haul flights on the east coast of Australia There's a half a hour flight they do two flights on a day the east coast of Australia is packed with planes
They do about 2000 domestic flights a week
Great video!!! I don't understand why some flight attendants look upset when they see a camera and some are really nice.... especially when one flies in First Class. We flew the Suites on Singapore Airlines from SIN-HKG and I filmed inside the cabin and our crew was amazing. Then, we flew business class from SIN-LAX and one of the flight attendants told the gentleman in front of me that he was not allowed to take pictures or film.
Very beautiful video on gorgeous aircraft, thanks a lot for sharing your experience :) Food looked especially delicious :))
