[@PaulStewartAviation]

Hey Jeb, I agree that the CX First lounge is the best at T3 although the view isn't great. Most of it is obscured by aerobridges...etc. I see you had to use a lot of zoom in your plane spotting footage? Qantas are opening up a dedicated first class lounge there later this year (or 2024) which is great news as their shared J/F lounge is often crowded. I'd argue that the Qantas First lounge in Sydney probably has the best view in the world. The apron and many gates are directly below it and aircraft rotate or land on the main runway right in front of it.

[@GreenerGrass]

We really wanted to check out the Qantas lounge, but just didn’t have time. Decided to save it for a QF flight out of LHR. No plans. But hopefully soon! Until then, farewell brother. 🤣

This first class is what many airlines offer in business class nowadays, so not a big surprise that they will phase this out. Who in their right mind would pay $15K for this? 😅 [edit: this is a good thing, as we can experience what used to be first class for “only” business class money]

[@defnoteliv]

[@brianglas7768]

Only someone who is getting their company to pay the cost.

[@CinemaSteve]

Agreed. They’ve basically bumped first class long haul to business class long haul. And business class long haul is now premium economy. We just flew premium economy to Japan on Delta and it was basically what my parents would fly when they did business class with Cathay Pacific in the early 2000’s.

[@mitchdenner9743]

Just like with everything nowadays, shrinkflation. We, the consumer, pay more, get less while company executives get bonuses. I don't fly anymore, let them all rot.

[@bend386]

@@mitchdenner9743 how is that relevant to shrinkflation? If anything business class products are better than what they used to be 20 years ago and I’d say with the increased popularity of credit card and frequent flyer points etc they are more accessible to mainstream consumers than they were 20 years ago. Also not sure how business executives get their bonuses are relevant to airfares. I guess you are trying to make the point that executives are overpaid and get too much perks but I can rest assured you business travel is no perk. Having done a few trips where I worked in the offices day of departure, then head to the airport to fly a red eye to an international location in business class, then straight into meetings/businesses once you arrive is not fun and certainly not possible if you got stuck in economy not being able to get any reasonable rest. Companies pay extra to fly people in business not because it’s fun it’s because they want to maximize employee working time on the ground.

My thing is if you going to complain about American airlines international first class why don't you go try Delta compared to American airlines believe me it's a difference between Greyhound and Amtrak

[@chefdannydesteli]

I love the seat and the desk feature very unique. I do believe that Flagship First should have Wifi included especially at 15,000 a ticket. Also you can really tell the age of the seat with that screen but it seems you do get all the true amenities of a first class and I hope that AA keeps the same level with their next first class.

You talk about the age of the international first class seats on American airlines 777 go fly Delta

[@jakejacobs7584]

You are correct that it is a very rare event for anybody in First or Business to pay full price hence the lack of enthusiasm for offering the service. My father was a United Airlines employee, and I was an AA employee for 36 years, so my entire life was spent in the industry. This scrimping on service is one of the easiest ways to save money when nobody is paying for it. It's just my opinion, but this whole thing started with deregulation. I stopped using my flight benefits in 2010 and just use miles now like everybody else. P.S. Good review, Thanks.

What dedication by the flight crew to get that seat working, or at least in a flat position. This just happened to me on ITA - FCO to BOS.

[@onespoiledpup2019]

​@davecarsley8773 They weren't multiplying the $5000 by 8 hours for the $15,000.00 x 8. They were stating that you could charter a plane for 8 hours at $5,000.00 an hour for a total of $40,000.00 . Which is only $10,000.00 more than the iffy 1st class the couple on the show paid to traveled. I hope it was a mistake and it was $15,000.00 one way for both and not each. Prices for one way are always stupidity more costly than they should be. 😊

Great video! I was able to fly Flagship First last week from JFK to LHR for just 72,000 miles. At that price, I would absolutely recommend it. The Chelsea Lounge at JFK was amazing with delicious food and premium drinks, all with attentive service, and was a notable upgrade from AA's other premium lounges at JFK. The flight is much shorter than yours, but I still managed to sleep well for several hours, and the food (I had the sea bass) was restaurant-quality. One thing to note is that the $15k price shown here is a refundable fare, which is often significantly more expensive than a standard fare. When an economy ticket cost 27,000 miles, being able to book Flagship First for just 45,000 miles more than economy was a no-brainer.

When I’m lucky enough to be riding up front I have noticed that most of the window seats are not that close to the actual window. This is particularly true during takeoff and landing when the seat has to be upright and all the way back. Are all widebody business and first class seats like this? Maybe when you are reviewing the seat you could mention how accessible the window is for outside viewing and filming. Thanks.

[@Andygarrett357]

Pretty much from my experience on BA and AF A-380's, AF 777 and Delta. Seems like they would move the seat closer (maybe an inch or two) to the window to make the aisle wider, unless space is need for turbulence and vibrations to eliminate possible damage. If there is an expert who knows why I'd be interested in knowing.

[@pacmanc8103]

All first class products in my experience place great emphasis on space, including shoulder space. Business class products that use a reverse herringbone design are also distant from the wall (except your feet). Emirates business class (old school) has seats close to the windows, as does Qataria’s QSuite cabin. The old BA business class did, too. Both QR and BA business class face backwards however and, to me, are a bit claustrophobic. I find the window and fuselage too close to my shoulder/arm - just like an economy class seat.

Didn't realize that arriving ones can go there too when waiting for domestic connections. That is much better than having to use the Admirals Club. :) By the way, love your channel and many of your videos. Have done CX and SQ First before and will definitely try to see if I can try AA First before it's gone, although I don't expect AA First to get even close to CX and SQ.

If your overnighting in London a great place is the Northern edge of LHR is Bath road. plenty of hotels for plane spotting with a great view of the terminals and an active runway.
