This video was filmed in early March from Abu Dhabi to Los Angeles. This is the longest flight in Etihad Airways network, with a flight time over 16 hours, flying as far North as 85 degrees, known as polar flight routing. Captain Bilal explained the Polar Flight operation and the critical timing of this ultra-long haul flight.
Besides the usual Etihad First Class Suite product and amenities, the chef also showed me how to cook a steak to perfection using the onboard oven. I enjoyed great dining and superb privacy in my First Class Suite.
After waking up from a nap, I saw the most incredible sights in the sky; our Etihad B777 was just 1,000 feet below an Emirates A380, also heading to LAX. We eventually flew past the Emirates A380, accompanied with some of the most spectacular air2air footage I have ever seen.
It was my absolute pleasure to have you in this flight Sam !
Chef Stamps liked your food presentation skills. Hope one day will fly with you In sha Allah
suleman furniturewala Thank you :) Maori welcome anytime
Thanks for showcasing the onboard steak preparation
Aston100 My pleasure :)
Your culinary skills are incredible!!
Cpt. Bilal is a great airman. His words define his passion of flying, never hesitated to praise the beautiful air traffic in front of him. The chef did a wonder in sky searing a juicy steak 11km above the ground in a compact kitchen deserve 7 stars. I want Michelin to start sky stars rating for the chefs in sky. Etihad still have a great crew.
Great video Sam. 👍
Really enjoyed Capt Bilal’s knowledge and passion sharing. It was an almost perfect flight!
@@SamChui While I may never fly first class anything, I think the fact that such a professional (and kind) flight crew compliments such an outstanding cabin experience really speaks volumes for the airline. Thanks for the share, Sam.
Sam Chui Capt Bilal is a great person. I had the pleasure to work with him a couple times (I’m ex ey crew) and he brings a positive atmosphere. Very nice guy. Miss you Etihad!
@@SamChui Hi Sam! You inspired me a lot so I also started to upload business class & first class review! It started with Turkish Airlines Business Class Food Review, but I will soon add more! :)
Butter landing too
Ethihad flying side by side with Emirates is a special veiw... love it
Sam Chui : Flying and sleep on Etihad First Class
Emirates after Sam wake up : Hello😏
that's the beauty of aviation, full of surprise waiting for you.
Sam Chui i just heard you in my head , reading this😂👍👍..
@@JasonAl yo same
@@SamChui want to fly like u do.
@@SamChui true sir.... Very true
14:33 A380 is an acquired taste. What a beautiful bird ❤️❤️
Indeed. Nice comment
20:08 haha
I'm more of a Queen of the Skies person myself, although the A380 is nice
Unfortunately the bird A 380 was a commercial failure!!!
it is majestic.
So no ones going to talk about how smooth that landing was...
Exactly, I was shocked to see how beautifully cpt. Bilal managed to land the bird. Truly a piece of aviation excellence, kudos to him!
I was wondering why they still hover at 10ft
until i see the reverser on, Lol
i mean, you did.
I don’t think the plane actually ever touched down, I think it was floating just above the runway.
butter
What a FANTASTIC crew, the chef alone is worth the price. This is how 1st class is done and done right. Bravo Etihad!
These are the qualities that a pilot should have. Capt. Bilal
I can see that he's an aviation enthusiast
I really learned a lot
Thank you.
Flying in a business or 1st class is a dream for everyone, especially with Emirates or Ettihad airways with long distance.
The whole vlog was enjoyable.
Thank you.
I disagree, u should never give up no matter how hard it is

Luxury at it's finest...🌎✈️♥️
I HAD a first class flight to Hawaii at the beginning of April but COVID-19 ruined it all! Lol
Flawless landing!
I hope everyone remains calm as we get through this frightening pandemic.
Frightening ??
@MrHoonigan If u dont afraid it, u can find a guy whose got covid 19 and let him cough at u.
@@mcscootie Frightening in that I work on the front lines stocking groceries. Constant battle to keep the microscopic enemy from attacking. Six feet apart, or six feet under.
mcscootie
Frightening may be the wrong word for some, but definitely UNUSUAL.
The kenyan flight Attendant said alot about 🇰🇪 in the little time she had...Am so proud of Her..Thanks and welcome to kenya ,Sam Chui
Amazing capture Sam ! This is so beautiful 14:08

Sam, I cannot express my gratitude enough. Thank you for actually taking your viewers recommendations and making your intro shorter ! You actually care about the feedback you get & that makes you a very unique youtuber! All the best my friend.
14:12 "incredible, incredible!"
Geeking out over an A380 in the sky with him is the most Sam Chui thing ever. =)
Great airline! Great lifestyle!
Favorite part is always you talking with the cabin crew and pilots! Love the camera footage from inside the cockpit too while landing! Love your videos Sam 🙂
I’ve also seen an Emirates A380 on the left of the plane I was flying with. The difference is, I flew to Belgrade using Etihad A320 from Abu Dhabi while the A380 is maybe twice as far as the one in video.
Uiiuuui uuuuuuui2iii uuyue2
Thank you so much for all your wk Mr. Sam. The beautiful views if your travels has been a wonderful escape for this california senior on lockdown. Blessings to you!
I've watched a few of your videos, but this one, ending with that scene / image of the Emirate airplane, is just special. Thank-you for sharing this with us.. Regards from Cascais, Portugal.
Gordon Ramsey will come to first class cabin and call you "idiot sandwich" if you ever order a well-done beef tenderloin
And he'd get his lights punched out
Gordon RamsAy!!!!!!!!!
I want well done beef tenderloin
Medium rare
What's this beef stuff you speak of?
That chef should be proud of himself the food looked amazing! The EK A380 flying along side you absolutely stunning 👌
Etihad’s first class is so amazing. Emirates and Etihad stay ahead of the game
Wonderful flight video Sam. Thank you for sharing these amazing experiences.
16:27
Sam: “I enjoy Etihad”
Captions/Subtitles: “I enjoy idiot”
Congrats to yt
Hi
Alex747-400 this idiot been taking corona virus all over the world
Omar hello Tahiri it literally said in the beginning that this was an old video
😂😂😂
awesome crew, especially the Captain with explaining all the details. Thank you Sam and stay healthy.
EDIT: brilliant shots of the A380.
Sam, I love this video! I learned a lot with Captain Bilal's explanation. I also loved when he mentioned about the conversation with the A380 ' s pilot. I really enjoyed it! Greetings from México 🇲🇽
Wow!! A plane looks so majestic in the skies 🤩 I love your channel sam 👍🏻plus I noticed it was a smooth flight no turbulence. Thanks to Capt Bilal 😁👏
For me Sam, that A380 flying beside you, is some of the best video footage you have ever done. This blog has be one of my favourites. Its so nice to watch something really good during our lockdown in England. Great work Sam, I look forward to many more once, this horrible virus has gone.
At least RAID shadow legends havent got him thank god
Maybe soon
@@unknownperson3691 I Hope not
TH-cam advertising has dropped for obvious reasons so content creators will need sponsors to supplement their revenue
@@bneexotics2120 I know but there are so many videos about RAIDS Sponsorship saga and I am just happy that good and proper companies are supporting him
Ngl those a380 shots were freaking amazing like even just seeing an a380 that close from a plane flying near it like duuuuude
WOW! just wow! awesome video and im watching it 2 years later.
Oh man I love this video soooooo much! The amazing encounter with A380 and the well-cooked stake. Thank you so much for presenting such high-quality and inspiring content in these tough days. This video really cheers me up because such an amazing travel is the thing we are expecting and we should have strong hope. Stay safe, Sam!
My goal is always sharing aviation content for many to enjoy especially we are all at home during this difficult period
Sam Chui Thank you soooo much Sam! I am so happy to get your comment. I’ll take this as my 19th birthday gift (Today is my birthday haha)
Love these videos it cures sadness in this time and brings you outside to experience things you can't now love your videos sam chui!!!!
Wow, what an incredible video. Very special flight and the crew was fantastic. Thank you for sharing!
Sam, thank you for sharing. Love the footage of the Emirates A380 flying side by side. One of a life time experience under beautiful clear blue sky. I am sure it means so much to an aviation lover.
Sam Chui : I’m invincible
Coronavirus: I’m about to end this whole mans career
Tarran Pathmanathan HAHAHAHAHAHAHA🤣🤣🤣 you mean all Avgeeks
Such an amazing crew and experience. And the captain, such a G! 😎
Very educational. Never thought about the different factors for flight routes
Hi there Sam! Great video I really enjoy your videos and your commentary. I am an air Steward for Emirates and I was working on that flight that passed over your. Really awesome to see that you were on the Etihad flight below. Really hope to see you onboard when I’m working one day! Stay Safe
The best captain is so friendly and cool.
Cool! Sikh Pilot on board!! Wahe Guru!!
Hi Sam, this is the first time I watch your videos on youtube and man I just want to say I enjoyed it. I'm from South Africa and I did enjoy that flight you had with the Springbok team from Sydney to Johannesburg. I hope you going to make more videos I did enjoy it fully. We overhear in SA are still in lockdown until the end of April and it could be extended. Keep it up to Sam you got a new youtube friend and stay strong and be safe.
Thanks for your video Sam, take care and keep healthy
Everytime I watch your videos it makes me want to fly more and more 😄
Tuomaaszz if its first class lol
Awesome Professionalism Hospitality what can i say...
PHENOMENAL VLOG.
It's Great Sam, that you're trying to bring back the Old Etihad as We knew.
I too hope they overcome their losses and emerge Successful.
I really enjoyed this vid. Cheered me up in the middle of this pandemic. Great crew! Great catch of the A380.
Great content keep it up I’m really bored during covid 19 this is really entertaining
I sit here in my tiny house caring for hubby of 42 yrs but he is in kidney failure so we go no where Sam you treat me to your travels thank you ☺️
If the landing was anywhere close to how smooth it looked on video, that would have been amazing. The opportunity to cross paths with an A380, just as you awoke, was awesome. Thank you for doing what you do Sam.
The footage with the A380 is truly spectacular. Thank you!
I don't care how late I am to comment. What a treat to capture that A380 in the sky like that! WOW what a sight! To have the camera equipment ready as well, lucky man Sam!
Sam, I had the same experience about the A380. But we were in the A380 not on the 777-300ER. It was just a couple of minutes after takeoff and we saw a 777 beneath us. That was beautiful.
Wow, this is so awesome in so many ways. Thank you!
One of your best Sam. Crew, aircraft, technical, routing, service and food.
I Like it ! I liked the way at the end the Captain of Sam’s Plane on his Conversation with the A-380 Aircraft pilot said that A-380 is an acquired Taste Just like a Dark Whisky !!
How cool was that chef and how smooth was that landing! :O
Beautiful video Sam. Much love from Kenya.
That view of the Airbus A380 was the ultimate, however the way that you showcase the Etihad experience is phenomenal. I cannot wait to experience their great hospitality for myself. Congrats on your 2 million plus subscribers Sam
I saw you once at LAX Tom Bradley When I was boarding my Lufthansa Business class flight! Was too scared to say hi 👋🏻
Sam big fan, I'm also Kenya. From Nairobi 🇰🇪👍
Fuck Kenya
What a smooth landing, pure butter, salute Captain Bilal!!
Just found your videos Sam. What an enjoyable one this was.
The way you grow sam chui...
Inspired me lot💜
Love from india...
#Stayhomestaysafe
Sam, I appreciate your videos. It’s nice to see a semblance of “normalcy” (though 1st class is generally beyond normal for me:-) ) . I was very impressed with the crew and loved that they came from all over the world. Stay safe, and I look forward to future videos when the airline industry get’s back flying again.
Great report, Sam. Your flight is the reverse of one I am planning in the future, so you gave me a preview. Not going anywhere now, of course. Keep up your fine videos so that we can all travel in our dreams with you, Jeb, and Dennis. Stay safe.
yay another timely video, thank you Sam.
Me: I want to travel
Covid19: HELL NO!
I know it sucks but at least we can live vicariously through these videos lol
And this HELL (covid-19) is travelling all around the world...shamelessly
Aviation will raise again
Is not HELL NO but rather "WHAT IS TRAVEL?"
I just hope to fly like that, once or twice in my life
ZimZim impossible for many
Sam
I really enjoy and like your videos. It makes me really happy. I was a next ground staff agent in the Orly arport in Paris France 🇫🇷 but because of the coronavirus, I lost my job. I miss it dearly. A really good and juicy paycheck and working at my favorite place (the airport) was such a good experience for me. But this time, I would like to come to the airport to enjoy the finest first classes of every airlines that I can go to! Thank you Sam for these videos !
When I got back from my holiday last I started to become a plane enthusiast and Sam has teacher me so much about planes as I’m a kid so thank you mr chui
14:33 what a view! 😍
They're chemtrails
john connor
Sure. Now go to area51 and search some aliens.
john connor they ate
It’s like a Mother and a Daughter.
Both planes look beautiful!
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
Great video Sam, thanks. I have flown QR, EK and EY they are ALL great airlines and the cabin/flight crews are the United Nationals of crews and so professional, hope they ALL live long and recover from this COVID19 mess, good luck to ALL the worlds airlines, be lucky!!!
Epic!
When I saw notification but didn't the video
Me : 🤨😵🤥!
Title : Etihad 777
Thumbnail Emirates a380
After wacthing video!
Me : oh got that 😂
One of the best videos you have ever made! And a A380 for company all along the way to LA and as close as 300 M away few times ! Wow !
I can't count how many vids I've seen that you made... This one with Ethiad I would say is the top 3 of all you did.. I love it... The crew is so cool and all looks wonderful. And especially the cook with the creation of food that is so tasty looking.. Congrats)) There is no better way to fly....
Sam Chií: I'm traveling one more time
Coronavirus: mmm I see an enemy
Sam should probably ask his fandom if they were on the A380; there's a more than reasonable chance somebody took footage of Sam's 777 as he was taking footage of the A380.
Good thinking. I wonder if anyone on the EK A380 took pic of us. Most kept their window blind down probably.
I just had that same thought. Very cool video Sam. Not many times in life you can race an A380. And WIN!!
@@melmuun Twinjets are much efficient than quadjets
@@SamChui Mind sharing name of song used for that portion of video?
I’ve always dreamed to see how first class was on the amazing plane. Thank you for showing me. Definitely a dream trip in my mind.
Hi Sam .. I so enjoy your videos , they 're informative and superbly filmed. The visual content is top notch. The footage of flying below the A380 of Emirates was Amazing.
Thank you Sam , your enthusiasm for what you do and your admiration of Aviation , I feel the same way about it. 😎👍
Painting the name of airliner in the plane's underbelly is not only attractive but also adds to its safety. Ground units in strife torn territories may identify the civilian airliner clearly and mishaps due to wrongful identity as a hostile aircraft may be avoided
To who ever is reading this,I wish you would have a great health 👍
Thanks god bless you
Awesome video once again thanks so much for showing just how great the airlines really are.
14:25 that is just beautiful to see an A380 flying next to you! Amazing! That plane is just beautiful
I feel your perfectly seared, made-to-order steak dinner on the flight was the bigger mid-air surprise. 😊
Omg u never heard of transylvania 🥺🥺🥺🥺🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
ManiKanta i think he was just kidding
One of your best vlogs! Wonderful pictures with Emirates above!
Enjoyable to watch! Tack!
That small gap on the doors would annoy me so much lol 😂
"I have to go to the eye doctor, but I never see the moment"
The A380 footage.....hellooooo
Hi sam
Great video as always Sam. Hope you are keeping safe. 🙏
Nice footage Sam ! Waiting for more journeys post pandemic !!
