You can literally drink back the cost of your ticket over the 10hr flight, what an incredible review Ricky, the experience looks incredible!

[@tzi_music]

Excuse me! If you love Japanese culture, you might like my music! You can listen to it for example on my channel! Thank you for the attention and have an amazing day! 😉

[@coolbreeze253]

Ricky reminds me of fellow vlogger Mikey Chen, another slender guy who seemingly eats his own weight in every video. If I even look at a lot of food today, I wear it tomorrow. Alas!

[@_Ricky]

Love Mikey's work!

[@FlyandStay-524]

One of best First class

[@KAMU13]

I flew two F legs in JAL back in August this year: DEL-HND and HND-DFW - best experience ever!

[@edward88881]

This review would have gotten 5 stars out of 5 but considering the superb effort you put in to try almost all the food available on this flight (I could sense a tone of either weariness or discomfort in your voice as you made a valiant effort to bring this through) I'd give you an extra star. So you get 6 out of a possible 5 stars! 😅 Congrats and thanks so much.

[@_Ricky]

Thank you, so kind Yes I was quite tired at the end of this whirlwind Japan trip, but I'd say I pulled through

[@milnau8099]

I was just thinking of trying Japan airlines. This review could not have come at a better time!

[@TheIBROWman]

Agree w u there Japanese food is so versatile impossible to get sick of it

[@kurtgubitz]

Finally, I can check off flying Singapore Airlines A380 Suites Class, 3A, SIN-FRA. No surprise, by far best suite I’ve ever flown. As always, excellent review.

[@MattNav]

Loved this video Ricky 😊 Brought back some nice memories of when I flew this product back in March from HND to London Heathrow (via the polar route avoiding Russian airspace) and got to enjoy the luxuries of JAL First Class for over 16 hours 😅

[@Deadsurfr]

Another fantastic review. Your outstanding videos are my research. Taking my son to Japan, Spring of 2024. The miles required for this flight seem surprisingly low. Lufthansa First class with United miles is usually 171000

[@thaitanium35]

Very nice review. Most business/first class have ample spaces in its little domain. What I find interesting and useful info is the food and drink options they provide. I guess I got lucky. I paid $8,000 each for the three of us for round trips from San Francisco to Tokyo and back. The seating is very nice. My mother has to be fed, so being able to sit across from her while eating makes it easy to help her with her meals.

[@jfmc6170]

Love a review by someone who’s not a teetotaler or vegan!

[@ianhamilton396]

And a shoutout to her ring. Wowzers!!

[@likitchenpairojskul7762]

I very much enjoyed the showing of the foods on board together with the kind of champagnes served. This gave me knowledge about the grade of champagnes which I would not have if I didn’t watch your channel. It would not be perfect to sit in first class without taking champagnes and trying all the available delicious menus. Thanks for sharing.

[@thereisnoaddress]

Nice new video format!! Great call on not drinking the pre-departure champagne -- a rookie mistake I'll never make again :') Was curious to know if they're (still) serving caviar with crackers instead of blinis? Thought it was just a one-off on my September flight but have heard quite some DPs about it.

[@nomadmike6550]

Last time I flew first class back from Australia I made the mistake of getting drunk in the lounge. Older and wiser now.

[@azpharmacy4615]

First class buffett on airline. You can order as much as your tummy desire.

[@russell9304]

I look forward to every single one of your videos

[@nagasako7]

JAL First Class and Air France First Class. Actual luxury with class. So much better than gaudy luxury.

[@nikolalevnaich1986]

This is awesome!!! Thanks Ricky!

[@GamePlaysPixels]

Love your channel as always. The review is well described and the full flat bed review part is pretty exciting.😁😝

[@bigpunisher9366]

Insane quality video, ✊

[@gregorybaker330]

I fly J out of SYD to Tokyo then F to LHR for 10800 aud and other full F are round 16k minimum. No need for F on daylight 789 flight. Great value. Show all pax courtesy.

[@twolee7110]

Ricky looked elegant as always.

[@GunterGrant]

New to your page! Loving the videos 🫡

[@Ryan_Yang_Barcelona]

Love your video from Taipei

[@markshen3280]

You should take Dubai Airline

[@Akradejadhama8]

Love the view at 10 minutes very much 😁

[@markshen3280]

Japan 🇯🇵 Airline is among one of my favourite airlines. Next in line are both Singapore 🇸🇬 Airline and Cathay Pacific Airline 🇭🇰. Korea 🇰🇷 Airline is also good 👍🏻, but never on United Airline 🇺🇸🚫

[@miniminichunkymini-le4us]

Emirates is also good

[@slick_anonymous1126]

Didn't know it was 1k for that. I asked for some champagne on my flight but I couldn't find the menu option they said it was first class only. I went to the bathroom and I came back and they had a cup with champagne waiting for me (economy). I felt so loved by them after that.

[@lizajane1878]

Love you ! Just ordered the Japanese fare, not a fan! Lol my western palette 😅

[@jayzee316]

amazing stuff, I still haven't tried first class yet they seem even harder to book than business at the standard points fare. it seems to me AC's dynamic pricing is really hard to book and use points unless its 6-12 months out. I have AC points (a lot), some Avios (60k), and about 80k MR, what would you recommend transfering MR to, avios? or virgin? seems like I can't transfer to Alaskan.

[@gordonreinz9849]

I admire you have fine tastes.

[@qkorea]

Thanks for the review. I will be on one of these in 2 weeks. Hey, I am hearing they only load one bottle of Salon on hnd-jfk but you said many bottles...Do you happen to know how mnay?

[@thesclass]

Great video! I've been trying to book first class with Alaska miles as well, but keep getting an error that they are unable to confirm space on these partner flights - so frustrating! It shows as available on the AA award travel page, but can't seem to book. Do you have any advice?

[@qkorea]

Samething happened to me but yesterday it went thru. I think it becomes bookable 14 days out so I suggest you look out for that opportunity.

[@samt0rx]

Welp now 85k from west coast. Regardless I’ve booked it!

[@mamad4802]

loved it ❤

[@katherineethersee2192]

I bet they deliberately don't bring lots of bottles of the more expensive champagne. X

[@WHOSTHEREYO]

thank you for your tips on redeeming via Alaska Airline. I do have 1 question. When I try to redeem it from LAX to Tokyo, it gave me the route from LAX to SFO, then San Diego, then LAX and then finally LAX to HND.. what a route.. all over for the original request??.. and do you know I redeem this and i just don't take those local/domestics flight since they are Alaska Air, then just take my original LAX to HND via JAL, would that be an issue?

[@jaymonhung4571]

Will you share your itinerary from Japan 😬

[@user-dw8ud2hw5d]

Salon 2007 in Fortnum and Mason in London £1480...

Thanks brilliant Video, I love it very much.

[@insaneclownkitty]

do they allow cats in cabin?

[@jeffchung6832]

nice

[@ubuntize]

is it just me or does Ricky looks like Jin Yang from Silicon Valley

[@21RandomMan]

How can I afford this ?😢

[@d3kingg387]

Upon arrival in LA Ricky Zhang delivers the Yakuzha message to the Sureños and Pirus gangs to stop operating below Imprerial HWY and to stay away from the Eastsiders.

[@markshen3280]

Who pays for all your trips ? Do you get sponsors?

[@charlesjay8818]

watch the BLOODY VIDEO, he said he booked the flight using air miles via credit cards

[@kennychua4269]

Sound like the iron chef commentator

[@firebreathingrubberducky5621]

No caviar course?

[@_Ricky]

Correct, surprisingly no caviar on this one

[@yo2trader539]

Russian and Iranian sanctions.

[@JSK709]

Imagine paying thousands of dollars for a first class seat to be woken up by this guy doing a review 🤣🤣🤣

[@o.c.g.m9426]

I always wondered about that. Like here iam sleeping but the youtuber (any reviewer) won't shut up 🤣

[@lukelausk]

=/ do u actually finish all the meals or just for photo shoot and rid of the rest... that's way too much food even for 10+ hrs

[@_Ricky]

I eat all the food

[@lukelausk]

@@_Ricky oh my, the food looks great and yummy but it seems uncomfortable to eat so much

[@NadjaBusiness]

How do you pay for it? Even getting so many miles is expensive and 15k subscribers can't pay for so many expensive trips? And then you have to pay two flights as well. How?

[@_Ricky]

[@alvinzichan]

jal canceled my jl004 hnd to jfk firsr class

[@user-hi4kz4jd2c]

There’s no business class or first class to exchange now. Maybe they think it’s loosing money for them. Edit: shit, my bad. They actually do have first class, but you need to look it up just few days or 2-3 weeks before your departures

[@sisken12]

Gained weight just watching 😊.

[@_Ricky]

😂😂

[@keithss67]

All seems a bit silly

[@caligirl8904]

ANA airline business is better than Jal first class! 😂
