Join me today as we fly around the world exclusively on First Class flights in just 80 hours. I'll be taking some of the most luxurious flights available in commercial aviation. From Emirates A380 First Class suites to Japan Airlines First Class and even an appearance from British Airways.

I'll visit six countries over three continents in the 80 hours, showing one of the most luxurious ways one can circumnavigate the world.

How I booked:

Emirates First Class (Part of another cash segment) - $750
Oman First Class 60,000 Aeroplan miles + $90
British Airways First Class 68,000 miles + $700
Japan Airlines First Class / Business segment 85,000 Alaska Miles + $40
Emirates A380 First Class - Cash $2,264

Total: $3,844 + 213k airmiles

    A big thanks to Ridge Wallet for sponsoring today’s video. Head to ridge.com/trektrendy Next video coming 6th Nov, as always let me know what plane / train / boat you'd like to see next on the channel :)
  • it’s crazy to think most of us will never experience once what he experienced for 80 hours..
  • @erinepp5396
    What I love is how he fully takes advantage of the menu. I don't mean this as a back handed compliment or anything I just genuinely enjoy looking at the menu in every travel mode and like to sample everything when I can so to see someone do what I would do (including the champagne) is really satisfying to see

    2 things this guy loves. 1. His tims 2. Seat 1 alpha on every airline

    I was fortunate enough once to be upgraded to SAS Business on a transatlantic flight, and while it was amazing, I found myself almost feeling... guilty? It's hard to explain, but as someone who grew up relatively poor, having all these flight attendants do anything anyone could realistically want, including making my seat into a bed, made me sympathize with them. It's somewhat of a shock to actually experience what it really means to buy someone's service to you. It was a surreal feeling.

    I’d love to see you do one of these In economy seats. Just to show the horror most of us have to deal with when traveling 😂 it would be interesting content. Love your videos 🙏🏻
  • I bet going around the world in 80 days ages ago was an awesome inspiring trip. Now one can travel around the world in 80 hours. It's an amazing progression.

    I have never flown first class. I did fly QANTAS business class from the US to Sydney. It was a truly fantastic experience. 16 hours with PJs, a lie flat bed, snacks on demand, and great food was a vastly superior experience to the economy class flight to Asia I took 10 years previously in the middle seat of the middle aisle. I arrived completely rested. It was a once in a lifetime experience I can't afford to repeat, but it was worth it.
  • I am one of the lucky few that got to travel first class for free. I was flying back from Oklahoma to Frankfurt Germany and flew out of Dallas, (I was a soldier returning back Iraq) I was in uniform and an amazing man that I met in the terminal gave up his 10 hour first class seat and sat in coach.....I tried to say no, but he wasn't having it and insisted that I take his seat. It was crazy how amazingly I was treated in first class. I'm quite sure it wasn't anything close to what he experienced in the video, but it was the most comfortable and relaxing flight I have ever been on in my life, and I've flown all over the world.
  • @memories511
    I think, most of us can only dream about a trip like this, let alone being able to travel first class on anything 😊😊
  • Idk if it’s just me and I haven’t read any of the other comments yet but when I watch videos like this it makes me feel like I’m right there with the person experiencing everything they are 😊
  • @johngraves6878
    Very nice full coverage of your trip with no wasted time in the video. Love the way you get right to the point. Whenever you flash an airplane menu, i just have to pause the video and read it! Now with all the luxuries, I was half expecting to hear about a full massage for in-flight first class passengers.
  • @BloodRosen64
    Going first class to Japan was the most amazing experience I've ever had I was so lucky to be put in that seat since I was on standby

  • @unclebmcc6848
    I appreciate you taking us on luxuries travels.👍🇨🇦
  • @artistglyn
    I've flown several times around the world in business class and always found it impossible to keep up with all the food and drink on offer. You were epic !! Oh, and I always, always avoid BA. My picks are Singapore , Malaysian and Qatar. I must say the 380 is my favourite to fly on. Safe travels !!
  • @carlyc9
    This might seem odd to most but after being terrified of flying for years, i got over my fear and went on my first flight in 2019 before covid hit, i had two holidays booked for 2020 which were both cancelled, it’s still my dream to travel first or business class at least once to experience this sort of luxury some day, wish me luck! Love these videos living vicariously through trek trendy!
  • @tebec3624
    Looks like a fun “bucket list” thing to try but I don’t fancy going from airport to airport on a regular basis no matter how luxurious the travel/accommodations are!
  • @Ilog0
    I got jet lag just watching this
  • @adamdrinkwater8316
    Ive got to say I’ve flown on japan airplanes first class before and it was a wonderful experience
