  1. Dan, im a fan, ok.. but youre the lamest in eating thx to your veganism, no offense. I have some dietary restrictions too, but veganism is too much to try and review airlines products when food is a big component for most. Nothing you can do about it i guess, im ranting. Sucks dude!

  2. Why do you never engage when I ask you on each long haul flight video what actions do you take to counteract your carbon footprint?

  3. Business/First class are "bad" mainly for people that well……..don't drink……and are vegetarians/vegans, that's…boring.

  4. Cant judge first class but my experiences in steerage have seen JAL the clear winner in almost every way, especially important being the seat is far more comfortable on JAL.

  5. you spent 2 seconds on the winelist …. and 28seconds on the amenity kits ….
    some men like wine, and arfe not interested by a 20$ kit that they will through away

  6. Oh man, I’ve been waiting for this video! The last time I flew JAL was 2010 when they were still flying the 747s, and economy was not the highlight. 😹 Although they were amazing flying Osaka to Singapore! Good to know that their economy is probably their best product, since we might end up flying them again soon out of Vancouver!

  7. Never flown JAL economy, nor first, but I really do like their business class, great seat, excellent amenities, stunning food. Speaking Japanese helps, as the crew indeed is not very comfortable speaking English, just like 98% of Japanese. The seat and food in your video is underwhelming and I wouldnΒ΄t chose it.

  8. A few months ago, I was at the same airport and ALSO had my flight (American Airlines) leaving from Gate #149. What a coincidence!

  9. Some of that food unironically looks worse than the toaster oven calzone I got on Easyjet. I wish people understood more in your comments section that all the criticisms are relative to the price. Some stuff would be fantastic on economy but not first class!

  10. What are the examples of most services in the lounge still not available due to the pandemic? It is true that the shoe shine service never came back, but that is literally the only casualty. The order flow was changed, now you order from the app rather than go to the counter, but I think that will stick just because it works better.
    It is true that the space that was designated for the sushi counter is not in use, but honestly the passenger numbers don't require additional space. That would just be added seating, everything on offer service wise is already on offer…..
    If you are thinking about the 15 minute massage, that was cut years before the pandemic.
