Flying Thai Airways & ANA BUSINESS CLASS New York to Bangkok!

[@akirebara]

ANA is the best airline I've flown so far. I didn't know about their company policy about not accepting gifts so I brought American candies/chocolates and handed it to the crew when I boarded but they had to give it back because of that policy. They couldn't take it at all. But I explained on my note inside the bag that it was my first time to Japan and it was my lifelong dream coming true. They made me a dessert, similar to what they gave you with a handwritten note and origami as well. I got super emotional, almost cried. I will never forget it. ANA crew is the best.

[@andreasjohne-johnsen2514]

I know! ANA and Japan Airlines is amazing

[@pandersonnike]

I got to fly them last year, and you are a 100% right. Their service truly reflects Japan's culture of providing an amazing product and service. Don't get me wrong, there are rude customers in the US, but I wish we saw service comparable to Japan with how they want to make sure they deliver what you paid for.

[@Goblinhandler]

If you had done that in United they would’ve nocked you out

[@leftydiablo]

Don't get confused about ALL Japanese culture being perfect. If you are dark skinned they will treat you like crap.

[@marleymescudi]

@@leftydiablo Thankfully that wasn't my experience when I went last year. I wasn't treated poorly but people definitely gave me second looks and were intrigued but I expected that as being a black woman in Japan.

[@JackY-fd1vy]

YES I LOVE THESE FLIGHT VIDEOS MIKE!

[@eddy615_]

also me

[@MrH786]

Great stuff Mikey. I just came from your Strictly Dumpling channel.

[@evayau8911]

Same!

[@Amanda-vp8ou]

The baggage workers standing there waving was so cute!!

[@Rinoue1]

Meanwhile on the other side of the clouds somewhere, United Airlines staff members are punching the passengers in the face, because United Airlines.

[@cmj199318]

Rinoue1 lol

[@lsubandtrumpet2014]

Rinoue1 I worked with United last summer as a temp. They have nice people who work for United. Sorry about the incident two months ago. Also CPD dragged the doctor off. Anyway, United apolgizes, I apologize. Let us get over this and move on with our lives and try to make a better society.

[@craigchastain7016]

1990s were amazing! That wasn't CPD. Those were Department of Aviation thugs that United called on board. They may be moonlighting cops from another area, but they were not acting under CPD when they did what they did. From now on, due to this situation, CPD is supposed to take main jurisdiction in situations that require police boarding airlines at Chicago airports. CPD does not have a great reputation either, but let's call a spade a spade.

[@davidsholian804]

Oscar Munoz is that you?

[@MilkTeaMT]

lol UA is fucked up

[@waurennn]

the note was such a nice gesture on the flight but I can’t get over the employees waving goodbye to the flight 😭

[@Michelle-rj1hw]

ANA staff is always on point! Best service I've ever encountered on flights.

[@Solitude1990]

The Japanese airline is exactly what I expected it to be. The Japanese have never disappointed me in food quality or customer service. They put effort into their craft and I appreciate that.

[@jen93106]

[@seven_hundred-seven_hundred]

OK, I am 5 seconds into this video. Paused it. I save these Mikey travel videos until I am completely ready. Clear all my other stuff, ready myself to sit back and enjoy the prime video production artistry and wonder of the "pleasure" of airline travel. (Oh, and don't forget to like it first...) Here we go...

[@NemesisKayla]

I love the travel vlogs when you show us the lounges and the airplane itself. The hotel looks soooo nice too. Excited for the next video!!

[@kathywolf4558]

While other airlines are beating up their passengers including mothers with children, there is at least one airline with very nice people and good service. Too bad other airlines don't have this type of service.

[@revinaque1342]

Kathy Campbell Wallace Good service comes at a price... Airlines like ANA are incredibly expensive. About 3x the price of a budget airline.

[@sawyer0815]

the flight attendants made me feel so warm inside - such lovely attention to detail and dedication to making the passengers feel welcome.

[@WisdomExplorerAG]

Wow this guy flying business class everytime now holy nice MORE FOOD VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@elmokelmu]

I love how the ground crew waves to the people in the aircraft... It's just heart warming.

Did they seriously wave to you on the tarmac? Omg.

[@MikeyChenX]

Ive never see that before, only japanese airlines?

[@Tokerpoker]

Mikey Chen I thought they were supposed to be the people with the color sticks directing the flight. sorry if I am wrong I have never been on a flight and am 13 years

[@AdrianJNyaoi]

I have seen that when we departed from Soul, Korea

[@HarryLin]

That's normal in Japan

[@sahm2ams]

Meanwhile in the good ol' US of A, people are getting dragged off airplanes and getting things thrown at them. Oh, the horror.

[@Toomies08]

I am not the biggest Asian food fan, but I always enjoy watching your videos! You make us feel like we're on the trip with you.

Mike, you are so lucky to be able to fly business! Thank you for sharing your experience for those of us who will probably never get the opportunity to do so! TT We shall all live vicariously through you!

Hi Mike, i was just a normal Vietnamese 20-year-old student who used to think i'd just end my uni life in 2 years and start working right away. but after watching your traveling videos, they really inspired me to spend some time to enjoy this beautiful world. i'll work hard and save money to make it. thanks a lot Mike ! you're such an inspiration idk how to put this right but i feel very happy and positive after watchin your videos ! keep up the good work ! hope that one day i'll have my own traveling vlogs hahaha

My family flew ANA to Thailand as well. We sat in economy and no one introduced themselves and the food looked nothing like that. I love watching your vlogs to see how the "other people" live. I can't wait to do my first vlog. It will be this January. We're flying to Bora Bora and Tahiti. I loved the Japan ladies rooms. The cleanser strip for your phone in the stall and a place to sit your kid while you're "busy".

I have been on a hell of a lot of planes and different airlines but ANA are exceptional. I was on a flight from Sydney (Australia) to NYC but via Tokyo. I was only in economy on a flight out of SYD that was only maybe a quarter full. The lady serving noticed I hadn't eaten my green noodles and commented that they are so delicious and had come with a special sauce sachet tucked under the dish that I had not noticed. She sat down beside me, opened the sachet of sauce, poured it over the noodles and proceeded to hand feed me with the chopsticks ... I was in heaven at 30,000 feet. When I told her I I had never had sake, she returned with a glass she had warmed and poured fresh sake for me. Before landing, she presented me with a 6 pack of sake as a gift of her appreciation that I had chosen to fly ANA ... BIZARRE !!! And that was ECONOMY class ... One great airline

[@yuphillw]

your flight to narita was on a 777, and bangkok a380. generally quieter on the second deck.

[@Brian-qx6kq]

I miss Japan now. I went there few weeks ago with my whole family and we stay there for a whole week. I have a great time. I am going again in 2020 to see the olympic games. I am glad I get to see few aircraft cockpit. The pilot is very nice to me.

[@onedollah]

did they make that plate specifically for you or did every passenger get one?

[@MikeyChenX]

haha I think just for me, or maybe everyone...idk

[@bhangraman7000]

Mike you are on the a380, which also the largest plane in the world.

Dude thai airlines is legit My first time flying to bangkok they gave me headsets for the monitor thing on the seat (it has games,music,movies,cartoons,documentaries,the menu, and some random series of shows) and then after 30 mins in the air they started wheeling out free lunch for all the passengers. Also the remote doubles as controler for the on flight games

Hi Mikey, I love your videos and vlog/flight reviews!

[@Initious]

You're right. This is a Boeing 777-300ER while the previous ANA plane you were on was a Boeing 787. It is a slightly older model but still pretty advanced! The engines sound wonderful too. The very plane you were on for your flight was built in March 2010 which makes it slightly more than 7 years old.

[@C.u.d.s]

Pro tip, take the sauces from the lounges (HND/NRT and BKK) useful for inflight or takeaways to your hotel room. Also you can take the top part of the three point belt behind you so it becomes a two point belt. ;)

U r right Mike! I thought i was the only one who was feeling the plane was too quiet!!
