Here's What 22 Hours in United Polaris Business Class is Like!

[@larisaschreiber3146]

I laughed out loud so many times during this video 😂. Chloe, you are so entertaining, and I love that you never take anything too seriously! Cheers 🥂

[@chloeandludvig]

Hahaha yay Larisa! It’s always nice when something enjoy your humour 😂😂 thanks for watching!!!

[@davidsavage6227]

What a gem of a video! It made me smile the whole time I was watching it. I thought I was the only person this excited to be on a plane, and here you are, on KZbin. I hope you make more of these. Really fun!

[@chloeandludvig]

Aw David thank you so much!!! Comments like this are awesome and the reason the long hours of editing are worth it. Hahaha thank GOODNESS there is someone else this excited - I don’t know anyone else who enjoys flights as much as me😂 I will be making another business class vid very shortly, stay tuned!

[@michaelbryant2071]

It's fun to watch you enjoy yourself on these videos.

[@deanrechek]

Chloe, you were so much fun to watch in this video. I myself am a United Airlines flight attendant and I’m so happy that you enjoyed your experience flying with my company. Hope to see you on one of my flights soon. Cheers!

[@chloeandludvig]

Aw thanks for watching Dean! I absolutely loved my flight- can't wait to fly with United again in the future!! :D

[@georgestreng]

Thanks for making such a detailed video about being a first timer in business class. It was super informative. 🙂

[@chloeandludvig]

Thanks George!! Really appreciate it :) thanks for watching and look out for my second business class experience soon!

[@lismorgan869]

I love your presentation vibe, Chloe and look forward to your future posts. Hope & Happiness always!

Just love the way the girl enjoyed it so much

[@chloeandludvig]

Hehe - don’t think I’ll ever get used to it

[@roughshot60]

I flew Polaris for the first time Newark to Rome. It was amazing. I'm flying again from Newark to San Francisco in Polaris then San Francisco to Sydney also in Polaris. I'm not as animated as Chloé but Im weirdly excited for the 22 hour flight. Thanks, Chloe.

[@peteanderson4395]

Only started watching your videos last night... very entertaining... happy.. carefree..witty.... thanks

[@chloeandludvig]

Such wonderful compliments! Thanks for watching - so glad you are enjoying the adventures!!

[@steventravels4035]

From my experience, catering from outside the US on a plane is a bit better than here in the US. I haven’t flown long haul in Polaris but, I have flown on their premium transcontinental flight from Newark to San Francisco and I can definitely say that getting Polaris on that route is definitely worth it because you get the same Polaris level service. Though you don’t get access to the dedicated Polaris lounge. You do get access to the United Club though.

[@chloeandludvig]

Ahh that’s very interesting info! Thanks for sharing Steven!! :)

[@davidoneal1518]

My very first first class flight was United to London in 1995. I was just as excited as you were on this video. I was a kid in a candy store. I never looked back and have flown business class ever since. For me, it never gets old and I love the flight just as much as the vacation. I am a huge point whore and I pay for everything with my United credit card. This really helps with the cost.

[@chloeandludvig]

Woohoo, others get this excited too!! Thanks for sharing - and yes, I have become a little obsessed with points myself! :)

[@CynthiaCanavaggio]

Love, love, love this video! Can't wait to try my first business class!

And then you got to experience this whole business thing even more often! And you're still so excited and honestly that's how we should all approach life. Your joy us contagious and I love watching you enjoy all of this fully 🎉

[@chloeandludvig]

Aw thank you lovely!! Haha love that you join our travels at breakfast!! I definitely thought it would be a once in a lifetime experience haha, but little did I know... I think excited and appreciative is the only way to be!

[@ABach-ld2oc]

Chloe, I stopped to write this comment at 9:36 of the video to let you know that I cannot stop smiling at your video. I absolutely loved your attitude regarding the flight. KZbinrs that do this for a "living" like to bash the product on Business Class but I loved your pure joy. Thank you for cheering me up. I personally love Polaris from Frankfurt to Houston.

[@chloeandludvig]

Hello!!! Wow thanks so much for leaving this wonderful comment! It’s definitely an aim in my life to brighten peoples day and put a smile on their face so reading this made me so happy! I was so thankful to experience this - glad you also loved it!❤️❤️

[@RoissyAngel]

I admit to having scrolled through this but I did enjoy what I watched. What did I like? I liked that you did not assume that we all know everything about business class travel. Most of the vbloggers don't give the details as they all seem to take everything for granted. I didn't know that you could order a meal when you wanted - the midnight soup and toastie - and would have gone hungry myself not wishing to be rude. I also did not know that you could use the business lounge upon arrival. I would have gone and paid for an expensive airport coffee and plastic sarnie oblivious that there was free, quality coffee and croissants in the business lounge. I think you did the right thing in, if you are going to pay for the business ticket, that you should plan to get the most out of it. Being a polite Brit I would have to train myself to keep ordering the nice food and alcohol... and to enjoy the lounges before and after the flight. I hope you have a wonderful time in Canada. It looks an amazing country. Such a shame that it, like NZ, is going through such sinister times. FREEDOM!

[@chloeandludvig]

Thanks for the awesome and detailed comment JC! You sound much like I did before this experience...and often during this journey I felt too polite to ask for certain things - I wonder if you ever get used to it! ...I was definitely happy not to have to pay for an overpriced airport coffee, haha. Thanks so much for watching - I hope you stick around for more videos! :D

Yours is one of the best flight reviews I have ever seen because your are entertaining as well as informative. Keep it up Chloe. You are very talented.

There is an alternative timeline where Chloé and Ludvig live together in Auckland. I’ll always think fondly of that timeline 😂😂 Excited for the Canada arc though, should be a fun base camp. Thx for the content. The top-tier editing compliments the good vibes so well

[@chloeandludvig]

Thank you for the kind words about the editing- yay :D Yes, we did have a little time living in Auckland haha.... we were far too busy to film KZbin videos while there, but will definitely make more of an effort in Canada!!

[@ttrivett2000]

was fun to see you genuinely enjoying your first business class experience! (yes 12 hr min for the pajamas ) Polaris is good although the food could improve, Emirates and Singapore are about the best there is. Good luck with your channel!

AHAH! There is a Pajama cut off! I sure did love every single bit of the experience, and it sounds as though I need to put Singapore Airlines and Emirates on the top of my list! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@MVC1156PHILLY]

So, I just watched this video. I am planning a trip to the US from the UAE and I wanted to fly Qatar, but I didn’t have enough money. There was a United Airlines flight that was reasonably priced. So, I went to You Tube to find out more about the Polaris Business class flight and wound up on your video. I’m sold! Thank you so much 😃

[@chloeandludvig]

Hey Ulisheba! That’s awesome news! Sounds similar to my experience - I originally looked at Qatar as I liked the idea of their q suites options but as you mention, very pricey. United definitely offered a slightly more affordable option! So glad you were able to make a decision after watching this!! Thanks for the comment 😊

I travel by plane regularly but almost always domestic in US. I must say, I could never eat like you and many others prior to and on planes. I often have and worry about stomach upset. No problem with alcohol and simple stuff at lounge prior to short connections to final destination. Delta is my airline of choice. Fun video, I liked your USA train videos.

[@sneaky111111]

Well I tried Air NZ business class from AKL to Vancouver (when my Dad had staff travel). $400 return - it was like I had won the lotto!! Great video again - and congrats on the marriage coming up 🥳

Haha I love that!! That’s super exciting- you’re gonna have the best time😍 thanks for joining me

[@colcheesypickle]

So glad I stumbled upon your channel. Your excitement for travel is infectious! Just FYI you will need to clear immigration and re check your baggage on international arrivals in any U.S. airport. Unless of course your international departure had US pre clearance, which is only offered at a handful of locations. Hope you continue to experience and enjoy premium cabins!

[@chloeandludvig]

Haha love that!! So happy you found the channel - thanks for joining me! I seriously hope yo be flying premium cabins forever now... addicted already :)

[@LeeMoore-tu4gr]

Hey just found your video and really enjoyed it. I have flown United Polaris Business once before and I will say that your food seemed better to me. I do really miss it though the whole experience was enjoyable just the food wasn't as good and I had hoped for. You earned a new sub 👍

[@chloeandludvig]

Hey Lee, thanks for taking the time to comment! So glad you enjoyed the video and welcome to the channel, yay! Interesting about your experience with the food - I’m at excited to eventually try more business class products to compare my experience!😃

[@BrianBorges-ez3ls]

Hey Chloe! Your vids popped in my feed a few days ago, and I a🎉m a fan! (GREAT retro music!😂 plus so much more!) Plus, if this is still applicable in 2024, welcome to Canada! (I'm here in Southern Ontario.) Your realization that vlogging is VERY tech-heavy made me laugh (and sympathise) -- makes you wonder how "funniest vids" VHS contributers did what they did 30+ years ago!🤔 Is it weird that I really liked the bathroom segment of your vid? Looks like you had a cosy night-time. Free toiletries are the highlight of any trip (I still have shampoo and soaps from my childhood travels in the Seventies!) Oh, and seriously beautiful camera-work throughout!❤ And I have been there in the toilet (mid-stream) ahen the pilot said RETURN TO YOUR SEAT! (Stressful! Esprat 8 years old!)

[@chloeandludvig]

Thanks for the lovely comment Brian! Glad you enjoyed the video! Haha yes learning about all of this vlogging tech has been interesting 😆 I’m getting there! Stay tuned for lots of business class flights to come (I say with my fingers crossed)….

[@solotrippin09]

The KZbin algorithm pointes me to you and I am well on my way to watching all of your videos. hehehehe I found your video about how much you make on KZbin videos very interesting. I loop KZbin in the background while I sleep to make a low noise level as where I live now is too quiet for me to doze off. So, I will loop one of yours instead of the random ones I usually do. That should help your watch time. :)

@chloeandludvig Polaris was 100 times better when it began. A lot of perks and good food have disappeared. Detailed menus as well as drink menus/wine lists are gone, as are the good wines. 😪 The good news is the ice cream/dessert cart is making a slow comeback.

Aukland to London, Paris,etc is generally done via Asia although there can't be much of a difference between going via the Pacific and across North America.A more exotic route would be south over Antarctica and north up Africa although nobody goes that way! Probably be a bit longer via Antarctica as the Earth is slightly egg shaped thus increasing the distance.

[@WilliamMurphy-uv9pm]

@@chloeandludvig No that person has not likely experienced it. In domestic US service, most first class is more like premium economy and thus much less than business class on international flights. Elevated service? Only on an international flight.
