Flying Singapore Airlines BUSINESS CLASS to Seoul South Korea

So everyone has that mustache thing over there? Oh, the Lyft driver has the mustache? Yeah. What does that mustache do? Oh, it's a light. Oh, it's a light? Yeah. We've seen all the way to Korea. Awesome. This is the arrival cafe for Korea. There's a custom there. Great, thank you. Hello. Hi, thank you. Good, how are you? A little description about laksa, which is kind of a tease because there's no laksa here. We got some tuna salad and bread and the worst ramen noodles in existence. These cup noodles are just horrible. I'm on the road again and this time I'm heading to South Korea. This trip is really exciting for me because Korea and Japan are two of my most wanted travel to destinations and finally I get to go to one of them and hopefully Japan will be maybe later this year or early next year. This is another reason I'm glad I moved to the West Coast so now when I travel to Asian countries it's not going to be like a 16 hour flight. It's a 12 hour flight, which makes a huge difference. I don't know about you, but the last few hours on a flight is like the longest ever. Another reason I'm really excited about this trip is that I'm traveling to South Korea via Singapore Airlines, which is an airline I always wanted to try because they consistently rank as one of the top airlines in Asia. So luckily when I was booking tickets, the cheapest was actually Singapore Airlines. So meant to be. Also you probably guessed by now, but I am flying business class to South Korea and a lot of people ask me in every one of my videos, they're like how do you get to travel so much? How do you get to eat out so much? How do you get to fly like first class and business class so much? So let me clear that misconception up for you guys. First of all, yeah I do travel a lot compared to the average person. I think on average I travel abroad maybe once or twice a year. It's just that this year I've traveled abroad more so it seems like I'm doing it all the time. It's not true. And also I think it seemed like I was traveling a lot because I moved from New York to San Francisco and I drove here so I passed by a lot of places. That's not traveling that's just called too cheap to ship my stuff. And let me explain about this whole first class, business class thing. When I went to Taiwan for the first time I never flew first class before in my life. It's always something I wanted to try. Luckily I had some points so it kind of softened the blow a little bit. Then when I went to Hong Kong, I got upgraded from economy to business so that was that was not me. I just got lucky. So this time I was able to work some numbers around. I got a cheaper hotel in South Korea and also I booked this flight one way. So I'll fly business class there and I'll just fly economy back. This way I get to enjoy the experience. I get to share it with you guys and it won't break my bank too much. I'm not a typical first class, business class traveler. I've seen some comments where people are like, well you don't dress the part. Why don't you act like you've been there before? Well because I haven't been there before and I get excited. I mean if you want to watch a professional reviewed first class experience, please don't watch this. This is just some random guy, normal guy flying on business class and first class and getting excited and loving the food. And I know there's other people like me so I want to share my experience. Here's what I got for food. Half a sandwich bread with tuna and there's no meat in the sandwiches so I just got my own meat. I like the fact that my meat is as high as my sandwich without the meat. They got a really good cereal selection here. Is this too much? Oh yay, they brought some more food out. Gonna get a laksa. This is awesome. Thank you so much. Thanks for watching. Take a picture. Thank you. These look awesome. Home sweet home. So this is it. Let me show you guys around. There is a massive size TV. This thing is the biggest TV I've ever seen. First class, business class, economy, whatever. This is the biggest screen I've ever seen. This might be bigger than my TV at home. You got a little compartment here that you can store stuff that can load two pounds of stuff. Little tray there. Check it out. Hi. Some magazines. Got the plugs. Light. No storage. It's a little storage but you can't use it during takeoff or landing. Alright, what is this? What is this? Oh, headphones. Nice. This is the tray. The seat is absolutely massive. This is definitely the biggest business class seat. I mean, I've only been on a couple other business class seats but this is so spacious. Holy cow, look at this. All these controls here. All the controls are here. Let's see what they have in terms of entertainment. No, it doesn't work. Grab my Playstation S controller. Let's see what kind of movies they got. Only thing is, I don't think this is touchscreen. So you gotta control everything through your little controller here. Definitely a way better movie selection than any of the flights I've been on before. So this is all their movies from Western to Asian to whatever. And there's a lot here. I don't think there's a lot of people on this flight. This is the fastest boarding to departure I've ever been a part of. And everybody so far is so courteous, so nice. The signature Singapore airline uniform looks really cool. And my favorite thing, the food guide is insane. First of all, it's like a library book. Check this out. So, lunch you start off with a smoked duck breast. What? That's an appetizer. And then you have a seared snapper filet or duck galbi or grilled beef short ribs or seafood udon soup. Definitely the seared snapper filet. Dessert, you got haagen-dazs or chocolate banana cake. Duh, both. Then you have a light dinner which is insane because your light dinner is smoked salmon as appetizer and a bibimbap or seared chicken breast with thyme or I'm gonna get this, wok fried prawn with dried chili. Then you get panna cotta for dessert. That's a light dinner. What's a heavy dinner? As soon as you walk in, these lights lit up. This bathroom right now smells so nice. I never thought I would say that about any bathroom ever, especially an airline bathroom, but it smells really good. I think it's this. Yup. This is what's making this bathroom smell so nice. This is my lunch. This is really cool. A little salt shaker set. Looks like a little ball on the top. Salt. This dish is beautiful. So tender. This is the banana cake and it looks awesome. Just arrived in South Korea. It's about 6.30pm here, so that means about 2.30am in San Francisco. That flight experience was one of the best I have ever had. The crew were among the nicest. The seats were really awesome because I thought it didn't fold all the way down to a bed but then the flight attendants came and made the seats into a bed. The size of the business class seats are like the size of first class seats on other airlines. I just want to say that food was incredible. Especially that last noodle dish I had was spicy. The shrimp was awesome. Food. Best airline food ever. I like the fact that the bathroom was really clean and it smelled really nice. Only thing that was kind of missing from this airline is that they didn't give you like a goodie bag. Not like another airline lip balm, but I like goodie bags. Now I'm going to head to my hotel and go to bed. Do I need cash in Korea? Thank you. I had $100 and I got 100,000 won. That's awesome. Thank you so much. This is my room. Here we go. Fairly small. Huh. It's like one and a half beds. It's like one bed and a half bed. It's like three people. There's TV. Wow. Look at the reading here. The Iran threat. Usually the only books I've seen in hotel rooms are the Bible, but this is interesting. Let's see if there's a view. Not really. Again, one of those see-through bathroom things, but everything's really clean. Nice automated toilet like that. Really nice sink. Nice shower. Really modern room. Can always count on Asian hotels to have slippers. Rope. Sweet. Check this out. Alright. This is a descending lifeline. What exactly is a descending lifeline? I'm thinking is wow. I guess you can hook this to your window and jump out of your window in case the hotel's on fire. I think every hotel room needs this. That's some Spiderman stuff. Here's the instruction. Break window with what? Break window with table. Fasten the belt around the chest. Throw the reel out of the table and send your body facing wall. This hotel is encouraging people to be a commando and I totally support that. And of course what I like to call the guilty scale. Just to remind you not to eat too much on vacation. So right now it's about 4am San Francisco time. Gonna head to bed. Thanks for watching everybody. See ya.
