Oh, man.

There's a lot of interesting
features on the flight.

Thank you, which way,
should I go this way?
[40]
(speaking foreign language)
Okay.
[45]
It's great.
[48]
The first class lounge
was not crowded at all.
[51]
It has a good apron view
with natural lighting around.
[58]
Talk about food, there's a lot of items
[60]
on offer in the buffet.
[61]
You see sushi, lots of canapes,
[63]
Chinese dim sum, and also a big salad bar.
[67]
This is really amazing,
Japanese potato salad.
[70]
My favourite is the Japan
Airlines special beef curry,
[74]
and this beef curry's only
available in their lounge
[77]
and on board their long haul aircraft.
[83]
There's also a live cooking,
today's special was fish
[86]
coming directly fresh
from Haneda Fish Market.
[93]
The lounge doesn't have a proper bar,
[96]
so all the drinks are
laid out and self-serve.
[99]
And there's Japanese sake.
[100]
Never have this champagne
before, De Sousa.
[102]
The lounge also has a great
view towards the apron.
[105]
Now for any aviation
enthusiast and champagne lover,
[109]
you should go to the end of the lounge
[110]
where the rest suite is, here you'll
[112]
find out why.
[134]
♪ Ah ♪
[140]
- This lounge has so much
aviation collectibles,
[142]
it's amazing, and then all
these dials are still turnable.
[146]
It's a really amazing collection here.

[154]
This has to be one of the most
[156]
theme-decorated airline lounges.
[158]
Incredible, each room has its own theme.
[161]
And here's the icing on the cake -
[162]
all the aviation and navigation charts
[165]
form the background of
the whole room here.
[168]
I wish this was my house so that I could
have a room like this.
[170]
Aviation library and a champagne
bar, pretty darn amazing.

- [Woman] Thank you so much,
enjoy your flight, thank you.

- Hi, I'm Dustin and we
just found a great deal
[221]
on award miles and are excited to be here.
[223]
- [Sam] Which airline
award miles you using?
[225]
- On Alaska Mileage Plan.
[226]
- Same here, Alaska.
[227]
I met Dustin and her mom, and me.
[229]
- I'm Shelley.
[230]
- Shelley, Dustin, and we're
all using Alaska Airline miles,
[233]
flying first class.
[234]
- Yes, yeah.
- Awesome.
[235]
- Awesome, yeah, very exciting, yeah.
[237]
- You guys may have overhead already,
[239]
I'm redeeming my Alaska
Airline miles
[242]
on Japan Airlines' first class section.
[244]
You need 70,000 miles to travel
from Asia to North America.
[249]
You can book award
tickets on Japan Airlines
[251]
by going to Alaska's website.
[253]
Now, a little tip to share.
[255]
The best way to get
Japan Airline first-class
[257]
or business-class seats is
about 21 days before you travel.
[260]
The seats are gradually released.
[262]
The total cost; 70,000 miles and $58.33.
[267]
This is actually not my first time
[268]
flying the JAL first class.
[269]
I flew, in 2014, to London -
[272]
at that time I wasn't much of a YouTuber.
[274]
I made a crappy video
compared to these days,
[276]
but again, this is not a shabby product.
[278]
I love flying on this
product again and again.
[280]
I'm excited to see what's
new on today's flight.
[283]
(speaking foreign language)
[283]
This seat is really, really wide.
[287]
It feels like I'm in a really,
[288]
really big armchair, actually.
[291]
And really good privacy as well.
[293]
There's only four passenger
today out of eight seats,
[296]
so there's two in row
one including myself,
[298]
and two in row two in the middle,
[299]
so good privacy for everybody.
[301]
(chill dance music)
[310]
(aeroplane roaring)
[323]
Thank you.
[325]
The flight attendant invited me to change
[327]
to pyjamas straight after takeoff.
[329]
So this is the JAL pyjamas,
super comfy, very, very soft.

[336]
this pillow here is
another memory foam pillow.

It's really, really good
for the lumbar support.

So very good details on JAL.

- This is a beautiful,
beautiful amenity kit by Etro.
[351]
What do you do with with an amenity kit?
[352]
Do you collect them, or
do you open and use them?
[355]
I rarely open my amenity
kit, to be honest.
[357]
Maybe I'm a flight enthusiast,
[358]
I like to keep them clean and intact.

This is actually a chilled tea,
this is not a glass of wine,
[387]
this is actually a Japanese tea.

This yellow drink here is
actually JAL signature drink,
[443]
it's called Sky Time,
it's a kiwi drink.
[446]
Next time when you fly JAL, try Sky Time.
[451]
Now this is the beef cheek,
it looks really amazing.
[455]
It melts in my mouth, amazing steak.
[458]
If you're eating and you
wanna get out of your seat,
[460]
you can just push your table.
[465]
There you go, what a smart design.
[466]
There's noise-canceling
headsets for entertainment.
[469]
All the entertainment is
controlled by the little headsets
[471]
next to your seats so you
don't have to lean over.
[473]
The nice thing is I can
watch the flight map together
[475]
with the programme on the main screen.
[477]
The internet is very reasonable cost.
[479]
One hour, $10, three hour,
$14, and whole flight just $18.
[483]
(chill dance music)
[509]
Alright, let's try out the bed.
[512]
Oh, this is super, super comfy.
[514]
Soft mattress, two
pillows, excellent privacy.
[519]
You can see how high the wall is.
[521]
Excellent, thumbs up to JAL.
[523]
I actually skip the dessert
'cause the meal was really rich
[527]
and I ate already in the
lounge and I don't wanna
[531]
overstuff myself even
though it's in first class.
[533]
Okay, guys, good night.
[535]
(air rushing)
[536]
Good morning, I slept really well
[538]
because of that wonderful mattress.
[541]
Now I'm hitting the
bathroom in the morning,
[543]
and as you know, Japanese toilets
[545]
has automatic water and
bidets for cleaning.
[549]
And fantastic, no need to use paper.
[552]
You can also change the
water pressures here.
[555]
(crowd gasping)
[556]
Oh, yeah.
[557]
They also dry up, so it's
really, really fantastic.
[561]
This is one great Japanese invention.
[569]
The flight is a little too quick
[571]
because we have a strong tailwind.
[573]
It's about one hour before landing.
[575]
Now I'm just gonna have my
second meal before arrival.
[582]
Well, I love that beef dish so much,
[583]
the beef cheek at dinner,
[585]
so I ask one more time for breakfast.
[587]
This is one of the best ever.
[590]
Yeah, I love flying, thank you so much.
[591]
Beautiful chocolate gift from JAL, wow.
[594]
- Let me show you,
[595]
do you like this one?
- Oh, cute, though.
[597]
- Let me give you two of
them, small kids. (laughs)
[600]
- A small kid's gift,
but I'll take it as well.
[602]
This is an aeroplane model of JAL, wow.
[606]
- And I got this from the captain.
[610]
This is triple seven sticker.
[613]
- Wow.
[614]
- And then Dih-ven Ya-mah-n's coaster.
[616]
- Oh, I love it, I will
collect all of 'em, yes.

- Japan Airline is
definitely a Skytrax 5-Star,
[669]
in my opinion, in their first class.
[671]
It is a good representation of
many great Japanese products.
[674]
Very low key, but very,
very good for the passenger.
[678]
So I enjoyed my flight so much
[680]
and I look forward to flying with them again.
[682]
I hope you enjoy the video,
thank you for watching.
