Thank you #WanderingScholar for another enjoyable luxury flight experience. We all need to take notice of the A380 before it is gone. Local competitors like Emirates & Etihad keep the focus on giving their customers the best unlike American/Canadian airlines where we are treated like cattle in economy and suckers in business. As always, appreciate your time spent filming, editing, voicing, and captioning for us. As wave ( 7? hits Canada I hope you are staying safe, covid free and enjoying your summer.

I'm sorry to have to admit to being a little disappointed with this video. I don't know why you wouldn't have given a better look at the menus, in the lounge and on board, in such a way as to make them readable. Even pausing the video didn't provide a clear complete view. I watch a number of videos like this, by many posters, and my favorite part (since I've seen pretty much every type of plane) is to see what different airlines offer their first class and business passengers in terms of food and beverage.

Last time I took this same flight to BKK in business class, it was quite disappointing as the plane was worn and dirty, my seat smelled moldy, there was dirt and dust inside the gaps, the leather looked well used and worn. And the lounge was a let down as well, too big with too high ceiling, people look at you eye to eye because it feels just a giant lobby space, no intimacy, loud noise, too crowded and busy, never get seats at restaurant, refreshment stands too far away, doesn’t feel pampered, major failure in the lounge.
