‘I paid £8,000 for a plane ticket – I was left speechless by things included’


A man has revealed what it is really like to enjoy flight class after spending a whopping $10,000 [£8,000] on a plane seat.

Going on holiday is an amazing experience, and while many of us don’t mind flying, after a few hours of sitting in the cramped seats, it can get uncomfortable. So you may often dream of what it would be like to be sipping on champagne with plenty of leg room in a premium seat. Some airlines offer first class experiences that are so luxury, it does not even look like you are on a plane.

One man named Jordan, who has become a viral sensation for his travel videos, has travelled to 131 countries. The man, who is on a mission to visit every country in the world, recently shared his experience on Singapore Airlines in a first class suite. His video has raked in over 24 million views.

He said: “POV: Boarding a $10,000 first class suite. Do you think the price is worth it?”

Jordan, who has tried and tested many different luxury flight experiences, was taken upstairs on a double decker plane, before being welcomed into his huge, private area with a luxury leather seat, a comfy bed, large TV and side table. He enjoyed his meals on a table, dressed with a table cloth and silverware. He tucked into belly pork, caviar, and a chocolate dessert while on the way to Singapore.

Plus he was given a cosmetics bag with products from luxury brand Lalique to enjoy on board, plus a pair of Lalique pajamas. The impressive bathroom is spacious and boasts dressing table area, a large mirror, and funky neon lights.

People were divided in the comments, with some being left wowed and others saying it is not worth the price. “For a 15 hour flight, worth every penny,” commented one.

One other said: “If I was rich I would in a heart beat. Sleeping, laying down on a plane seems like the best.” One individual who has experience Singapore Airlines first class, said: “I’ve taken this flight three times in the past 10 years. This airline really knows how to do first class. Only different is, I didn’t pay for it my company paid for it.”

“Hell yeah it’s worth it,” wrote another. “Wow just once in my life I’d like to experience that,” commented another.

But many others were left outraged by the price. “Not worth 10K…you can hire a whole small jet for that money,” one pointed out.

“Sorry but definately not worth $10K,” agreed another. “Absolutely not worth it,” agreed a third. One other added: “It’s cool, but I don’t really see how it’s worth it.”

One other wrote: “10K for a swivel chair and a camp bed. Nice though.” “All that money for a couple of hours,” poined out another.

Nodding to Jordan’s reviews of other first class flights he has experienced, one viewer said: “Nothing can compare to Etithad Residance,” commented one fan.

“I think Emirates first class is better,” added another. Jordan previously said the Eithad’s The Residence is “the best first class seat in the sky” and “nothing compares ot it. It set him back $9,000 [£6,937].-
