Is the ROYAL JORDANIAN 787 a hidden gem?! BUSINESS CLASS vs ECONOMY cabin comparison

We flew on Royal Jordanian’s flagship Boeing 787-8 Aircraft from London Heathrow to Amman, Jordan in our latest cabin comparison! Liam got to try out Crown Class (business) while Nicky was seated back in economy.

RJ is super underrated. Took it from Chicago to Amman without any complaints.

[@Mujahedkhan989]

Can you give me pros and cons taking the exact same flight!? Please and thank you

[@Roy-cu5bv]

@@Mujahedkhan989 When I did I got a really cheap price so that’s pro. Meals, snacks, entertainment is all good. One issue is it’s just long flight.

[@minaalnajafi540]

Do they offer wifi?

[@RonyEditz73]

Bro I think I was with you on that flight last year I went from Chicago to Amman on RJ (btw I’m Jordanian)

[@Thecodemonster]

It's amazing how some airlines manage to keep things like this to themselves, there are so many hidden jems out there

[@FTTravelstyle]

I love the way you time the crew to see how fast they respond to the call button. I live in Canada and with air Canada and air Canada rouge, you press the call button and literally they try to avoid you and if you ask them for a coffee or water, they give you dirty looks. 10sec, 1min, 1/2hr, 4 hr, landed, still no one shows up 😂😂😂

[@InstantLuc]

Our country's "service" culture is the worst I've experienced in the world and I've been to over a dozen countries 😭

[@misisoakai2684]

I thought Canadians were nice people lol

What’s better than a Chaotic Intro? A chaotic cold open! Stay awesome, Liam and Nicky ❤

[@benjaminnilsson8004]

I think its nice and fair that you guys take turns in different classes so 1 of you dont have to always choose economy etc

[@lukalevstek7851]

Nice video. Business class with 2 2 2 configuration is something you don't see very often on wide bodies these days.

[@rlipso2434]

A tip for the 787, if your flying in economy, go for the last two rows, the window seat is missing due to the curvature of the plane so there's more room.

[@sebbyh9764]

Thank you. I’m flying to Bangkok from Amman so having more room for the 9 hour ride will be nice😊

[@pullformore]

You didn't mention the cardamon coffee upon boarding! The best part of the RJ experience. That, and the bed - it's THE most comfortable bed in the sky, in my experience. Lovely and pillowy and soft. Bliss!

[@mini-land]

Amazing review! You always review a wide range of airlines.

[@gunvaldsandhaland7757]

I Have not fly ROYAL JORDANIAN Yet.Great work

[@dylansaviationadventures]

Love your videos! Keep up the fantastic work!

[@titusmaclean_]

Hi I really love your videos from Ghana 🇬🇭🇬🇭 You've really made me fall in love in traveling.. ♥️♥️♥️

[@thomasmoore9421]

Jordan is a country I've thought about visiting & RJ does seem like a decent airline. I'm an Amex fan but if I went for 1 of their charge cards I'd most likely stick with the green because the annual fees for the higher ones are crazy. Even when factor in the perks.

[@fariss.7342]

Love this review. RJ is definitely an underrated airline. I love flying with them and never had issues.

[@peetno1]

Im in love with Liam! Nice vlog as always keep up the good work guys!!!

[@wingthings4629]

The videos are awesome keep it up! Just one question how do you book multiple classes on the same flight? I have been wondering how to do this and would like to know. Thanks!

[@roukayahachem]

I always fly RJ when going back to my home country Lebanon by going on their DTW-AMM-BEY route and it’s a long flight but I don’t hate it will sitting in economy jamming to their welcoming music underrated airline

[@chalayan]

Love Jordan especially Petra and Wadi Rum for the glamping.

[@mazz2001]

I will be on this same exact flight less in less than 2 days. Can’t wait !

[@laurenlinterfree6624]

I'm happy that you went to the Qantas Lounge, as an Australian I feel very under-represented in these videos haha

[@googleuser4467]

Guys, you should review the same cabin class together. For example: the business class on Emirates's 777-300 from Newcastle upon Tyne to Melbourne via Dubai.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I AM LIVING for the fact that Liam gets recognised more and more while travelling. That’s awesome!

[@richardnedbalek1968]

🌟 7:18 Liam scores MASSIVE room for his feet! 😊

[@zork999]

Must be some new definition of the word "Massive" that I have not heard before. That footwell looked TINY! That and the 2-2-2 configuration assures that I won't be flying RJ anytime soon if I have a choice on the route.

[@richardnedbalek1968]

@@zork999 Liam himself described the footwell as “massive.” My comment simply used his own adjective. Your subjective opinion apparently differs. If you have flown RJ, you’ll know yourself. If not, we’re left with Liam’s opinion. Either way, it’s a matter of individual perception, not an understanding of definitions.

[@zork999]

@@richardnedbalek1968 To quote Liam "Does get a little bit narrow..." That picture is hardly "massive". I can only assume Liam is being sarcastic.

[@Matthew4TheWin]

When you say “lots of legroom” in economy please qualify that. From earlier vids I think Nicky is erm… not tall. Lots of legroom for a shorty is very different for someone over 6ft.

[@marcj6180]

Great video! Can you do Aegean Airlines..

[@Calebs_Aviation]

Great video Nicky & Liam! Loved seeing Royal Jordanian especially on that lovely 787-8 Dreamliner! Hope you enjoyed it I can’t wait to fly on RJ! 🇬🇧-🇯🇴

[@christianbayerstein5243]

Royal Jordanian is better than expected, much better than Air India.

[@-Mr.GoofBall-]

Royal Jordanian has to be my favorite airlines. I have been to it to visit Iraq my country, and also back to America. Very good experience even though it was economy class.

[@tripstracka1643]

Another great video gents.

[@Shawercool]

you know maybe you can start flying airlines from their hubs so you get the full expierence and plus I have always wanted this video and who else has Royal Jordainian as their fav airline?

Hey guys, love your reviews but I would have just one suggestion : - could you please show more takeoff, landing and in cruise clips from outside the window ? But in any case, keep up the good work lads !

Good News: Nicky opened the packaging of the meal with one hand. Bad News: Nicky spilled some white wine. The world is in equilibrium now. Also, not Nicky parting from the blanket with such sweet sorrow.

Do a challenge with Nicky. A free upgrade challenge, where he tries his best to being upgraded for free on an economy ticket. Disallowed arguments: KZbin, media production, subscriber counts and so on.

[@imranalhinai2118]

Please review Oman air

[@hanj31]

unless its apex suites 2-2-2 business class is not good. should have also checked out the cathay lounge if it was open too!

[@nevinsood3846]

Love TPG Uk - however when you review economy you almost always never have anyone sitting next to you and you are never in the middle of a center 3 or 4 seat row surround by other passengers. I think this would be a more a realistic reflection of the actual experience in economy IMO. I have flown 12 transatlantic flights this year and every single flight was fully booked so I think you should consider this as the perceptions can be extremely different to the reality. Hope you all have a very merry Christmas!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

If you use a High-Tier Amex Card while you’re assigned Economy, it’s cheating. You will buy cheesy duty-free gifts and eat McDonald’s. Maybe browse the book store.

I'm also opting for economy tickets are shown without extra pricey extras. And Nicky has to do it every now and then. So Nicky gets rid of his snobbiness.
