there is a seat on an airplane called an A380 that literally comes with a living room a private bathroom a private bedroom and a personal flight attendant now I have no business flying in that seat it only exists on one airplane in the entire world however I owe my friend Isaac a favor his brother David lives across the world in Singapore and they haven't seen each other in 10 years Isaac asked me to deliver David a letter and his favorite seral from the US all the way to his brother in Singapore but if there's one thing I know going on this adventure of writing in every single class on the most expensive airline in the world would be insane but the only way that's going to happen is if I could fot the bill on a sponsor thank you Shopify I packed my bags made my way to the airport and boarded my first connecting flight to Singapore on my way to my seat I did pass through business class I'm not sure how you can even call this a seat I also passed through basic plus look at that leg room that's going to be fun and finally made it to my first seat of the video basic [Music] so on this first flight we are going to be flying from JFK to Abu Dhabi which is nearly a 13-hour flight I'm most likely going to be doing a lot of voice over because I'm socially awkward I passed the time by measuring our leg room 4 in by the way and also just by staring out the window until our first meal arrived about an hour and 15 minutes into the flight all right lunch is served here's what we got a water bottle bottled at the source a bread roll covered in a nice layer of plastic chicken and rice veggies strawberry cheese cake and the nectar of the Gods Sprite this looks really good I'm excited how the chicken you tried it that's Betty she didn't hear me she wouldn't ignore me we're actually friends she's my basic buddy silverware I don't think I've ever touched silverware on a plane before this is crazy this is like first class treatment in basic I spent the next few minutes absolutely housing this meal I mean this is hands down the best meal I have ever had on an airplane this food is so good surely after finishing I found myself in desperate need for the bathroom which is a great opportunity for a tour greetings from the basic bathroom for pretty pretty basic yeah we've got a sink the tile is nice oh it's not actually tile the toilet is it's definitely a toilet the flush button got some use but that's that's a good thing it's doing its job well overall pretty fun in here uh gets the job done at this point we're flying over the middle of the ocean and it's late I tried turning on a ligh but accidentally flashbanged Betty so just bear with me with the lighting greetings I will say that so far the service has been incredible just a bit ago I was in the bathroom so I missed the coffee delivery I asked the flight attendant for a coffee she brought me a cappuccino and Oreos this is my first time eating an Oreo suspended 35,000 ft in the air it felt amazing I drank my cappuccino it was also delicious I feel like I'm In First Class I do I am so excited to go to Singapore I remember when I was in like 8th grade and we had a text book that said Singapore is one of the nicest countries in the world and ever since then I have dreamed of going but I did not think I would be going to deliver a 40-year-old man cereal regardless it's happening I'm going to do some work and I will catch up with you soon at this point I crack over open a bag of Cherry Berry ropes reclin my seat and open up my laptop for some top secret work I'm working on my computer I'm a hard worker a few hours later we got to watch the most mesmerizing Sunrise ever so I asked Betty to take a video of it she did a great job it's recording right so pretty it's so hard to capture it right I know right really doesn't do jce yeah exactly now that the sun is up that means it's time for breakfast the basic plus section gets served first which means by default Betty and I get served last we are in the last row after all but that just means I have more time to play Angry Birds and watch trolls at the same time hi guys chicken Woods rice or coconut curry how with the chicken chicken it's very nice it's like a burrito bowl how yummy with guacamole you got nice yeah thank you guess what's for breakfast chicken and rice again I watched this person play Angry Birds while I ate and then decided to interview the flight attendants because they have been amazing why are you guys so motivated to give such a good service we love our gufts so we always give our best okay what's your name I'm Shante where are you from South Africa really me and her and her how are you so my name is Joselyn and the reason why I give good service is because I love people I love socializing with the people and I love ety H you got this Ryan we have arrived to Abu Dhabi I was mildly concerned about my cereal coming into a new country but I got through with E I would be celebrating right now but I thought it was probably unwise to celebrate before my cereal gets through customs in Singapore regardless this airport is awesome wow hey this airport is insane it's honestly pretty comforting maybe because there's a Texas Chicken directly behind me flight number one complete for the cheapest seat on the flight that was a great experience if it only gets better from here I don't know how I'm going to behave myself sorry for saying that it's weird weird thing to say if it sounds like I'm SL my words it's because it's 3:00 a. m. in the US and since my next flight to Singapore is in 10 hours I'm going to go to sleep and keep this cereal safe I hope it's still in here it should be okay let's go to a [Music] hotel I got to find a better way to get these shots very nice this is literally in the airport I'm going to go to sleep good morning it's night time I got out of bed took a shower and got ready to board my flight to Singapore I'm honestly just excited to fly on this Airline again especially because the cereal is still [Music] safe I have arrived to my basic plus seat I cannot tell you how uncomfortable I am right now to be filming this but I will say I paid extra for this seat and it shows look at this leg room I can't wait to measure that later also my seat buddy moved right over to the left because there was an available seat which means this is basically first class look at this Elbow Room so the next stop is Singapore let's see what it's like to live the basic plus life all right I'm going to stop recording I can literally smell business class from here it smells like luxury they have lay down seats I'm feeling a little fomo but honestly I'm just ready for this thing to take oh we yeah we took off okay let's go to Singapore as I got situated I realized most people are already asleep on this plane if you're looking for leg room sorry I took it all 23 in it's crazy anyways I got a tin I have arrived to the basic plus bathroom it was fun to see everybody who's flying on the plane with me but it was a long walk this bathroom isn't so different from the last one we've still got this beautiful tile that is not tile the toilet does in fact flush I tested [Music] it there is soap a sink trash can all kinds of paper products that you may need and if you're a baby a place to sit I'm having a great time however I am currently experiencing a little bit of turbulence on this plane so I'm going to go back to my seat just as I was walking out of the bathroom I saw the flight attendant getting our dinner orders let's hope for some chicken and rice eat I have chicken with bani I have fish with rice and vegetarian pasta can I do the chicken with rice awesome thank you yummy thank you all right dinner is served look at that we've got the good life bread not sure what that means some vegetables a specialty Eddie hod beverage it's Coca-Cola that's what it is natural drinking water chicken and rice which looks delicious this actually looks so good and dessert maybe banana pudding I love banana pudding it is literally midnight this is the fanciest meal I've ever eaten at midnight all of a sudden I'm kind of panicking because I haven't looked inside my luggage since I left to check if the cereal is really in the Box I don't know why it wouldn't be I just really want to get David this cereal also just realized I have a hole in my shirt so that's awesome please excuse me while I devour this meal that meal was so good and now that I have a full belly I decided deed to do a bit more work on my secret project top secret once again I found myself with Oreos and other snacks I'm just blown away by the generosity of these flight attendants okay and as the sun was beginning to rise I decided to see what the flight attendants for basic plus had to say guys we're almost in Singapore I'm here with Michaela Hi how are you she was my flight attendant today where are you from South Africa that's so fun my last flight attendants were from South Africa too they were great right they were great I love South Africa can I tell you why I'm going to Singapore I'm going to give a man cereal it's normal it's crazy it's normal that's true you got this Ryan yes you got this Ryan just the fuel I needed I feel Unstoppable I'm sitting in my seat and I'm just so ready to land okay we landed all right as I was getting off the plane the flight attendant invited me to meet the pilot I don't know what's happening but the captain is taking me with him all the way to the front of the plane have you been in a flight B before never then go ahead now I can really say I've sat at every uh seat on this Airline yeah that's so cool thank you so much your job I said goodbye to the team and got off the plane with no doubt in my mind that's when I saw something that made me want to puke Customs every country has different policies for what you can and can't bring into the country and in terms of categories food is one of the most regulated items let's see if this seral gets through for uh Customs for like food oh okay all right thank you I thought it'd be cool to get an ominous video of me looking out at this crazy view I've always seen this Airport photos but now I'm actually here figured I might as well get a video in front of it just for the record that flight was awesome the leg room was fantastic the food was so good the flight attendant were amazing and I made it to Singapore and guess what I've got the cereal with me I cannot tell you how relieved I was when I opened my suitcase and it was actually in the Box I also have David's letter from Isaac a so cute Brothers love each other so I'm not meeting up with David for a little while and I'm actually really tired cuz it's like midnight in America so I think I might take a nap good morning it's not morning I slept for 1 hour if you also find sleep pods capsule hotels really interesting the yotel air in Singapore it's fire it's a good one anyways I've got a cereal box to deliver I really want to make it look like I'm actually on an epic mission that matters so I think I'm going to make the next few Clips like a dramatic cinematic sequence we'll probably start right now in a world where two brothers live in separate countries does this feel epic I don't know can you guys just comment while R now is epic there's only one man equipped to unite them it's me Ryan yeah so uh I got a taxi to David's place and met him this this is the end of the sequence I hope it was good nice to meet you David oh this is so sick David I flew all the way here because of what's in this box all right I'm ready to see it okay all right you want to close your eyes three 2 one oh crack not brand dude yes this is a great great gift this we used to get this every Christmas morning but yeah we just all love this stuff thank you Isaac budy this is so good David poured us both a bowl of crackl and oat brand and we enjoyed a nostalgic meal together in Singapore and that's when I gave him Isaac's letter Dave since he moved across the world I know it's difficult for you to come home regularly what's probably even harder though is that you have to go without some of the best food America has to offer specifically the kind that mom used to give us with our stockings every Christmas I hope this box of crackling oand brings you back to those lovely childhood memories eat it slowly because like all the best things in life we don't fully understand how good things are until they're gone miss you brother Isaac now Isaac has no idea about this part but David's got a favor to ask as well deliver a letter back to Isaac and give him a Singaporean snack straight from David's Pantry there's only one man for the job it's me I put it in my luggage and yeah I'll bring it back to him all right my job is only halfway done I delivered the cereal and now I've got something to deliver to Isaac Mission Part Two has begun I'm on my way America after that I had a few hours before my return flight home David took me around Singapore it's a beautiful place this is just so crazy like I said I remember looking at Singapore in my textbooks in school and I always dreamed of coming here and I got to say it did not disappoint except for the fruit that I tried it was it was uh unique I didn't I didn't really like it David got a kick out of that eventually I headed back to the airport and prepared for my business class seat it comes with a private airport lounge lots of food and drinks but my flight was boarding so I headed to the gate hello [Music] s welcome to business class I already took my shoes off and I don't even feel weird about it they give you free slippers also I was served this red juice almost instantly it's watermelon juice guys I had so much fun in Singapore David is the best the only problem is I didn't really sleep I got like 1 hour of sleep at yotel air and that was pretty much my sleep for the night this flight that I'm on right now is once again an overnight flight and I'm pretty sure that my seat reclines all the way down like I could lay flat but I don't want to sleep because I don't want to miss out on any of the cool stuff you get in business class what's on the menu business yeah we're not in basic anymore here's a quick list of things that come with the seat a pillow quite comfortable I will say slippers I already put them on why am I doing this with my feet I don't know but I'm in business class a fancy blanket this baggie which comes with a face mask earplugs lotion lip balm face mist and toothbrush and toothpaste another pillow perhaps to cuddle I am tempted to sleep but I'm also scared to miss out on any cool stuff that they would bring me so guess who's staying awake as the flight is taking off I've developed a plan to not fall asleep in which I will be very strict about not even closing my eyes to Blink I fell asleep for 4 hours oh my goodness I don't even remember extending my seat into a bed but here I am one thing is for sure this is the most comfortable airplane seat I've ever had I'm not proud of it I'm not on one end I missed out on 4 hours of business class luxury but also did I because I was laying fully down on an airplane the flight attendant when I woke up she brought me coffee it looks really good she was also like but you don't want any like M or anything and I was like oh yeah I didn't that's awesome I didn't I can still get it and she was like you haven't eat anything I know thank you so much and I said I mean I'll just the fruit and I'll just get ice cream just for the experience and she said okay that's crazy so I'm looking forward to that I have not used the bathroom yet I've got some work to do before we land let's get after it thank you very [Music] much that was not only the best fruit I've ever had on an airplane that was the best fruit I've ever had that was so good ice cream went in Rome and then randomly after eating I got really emotional like about to cry I can't tell if this is out of gratitude or because I just ate some solid ice cream but either way I need to pull myself [Music] together guys I finally made it to the business class bathroom it is nicer it is we do have the same tile as before however look at all this other stuff you get the hand soap is in a special container the faucet does look fancier it really does you've got a nice assortment of hand products not one but two mirrors also potentially the best part when you're doing your business in business class I mean talk about elevated there's a window babies can also sit here I don't know what babies are flying business but let's test this bad boy out sorry I'm going to use the toilet I feel like a business Mogul working up here no but really this is so cool before landing I freshened up with some complimentary face mist we we have arrived to Abu Dhabi but as soon as we landed two security guards came on the plane asking for me how's it going good awesome good all right thank you I don't know what I did wrong I don't know if I'm in trouble but two men personally took me off of this airplane and are now driving me in this little car thing to I don't know where it felt like we were driving for hours until eventually they dropped me off at a private Suite what in the world is going on I literally thought I was getting escorted off the plane but cuz I I was a little gassy some things just don't sit right with my stomach I don't know what it was maybe it was the durian shout out to David I cannot believe this is real I don't know what to say I have an abundance of fruit and pastries I have a waiter named Ali I think he's bringing me salmon I think it's 1:00 a.
m. why why is that even available the people that have seen my boarding pass they kind of look at the part where it says the resi and they're like oh oh hello sir before I show you this private room that I'm in just for the record bus class was amazing I did sleep for like half of it but it was extremely comfortable the service was amazing it was dark the whole time so the The Vibes were cozy I have nothing bad to say about business class do I miss my old flight attendant friends yes but honestly it's hard to focus on how good that was whenever I get escorted off the plane immediately and brought to a private room that has a toilet in it let me show you around looks like we have coffee and Voss water abundant fruit and pastries a huge couch a luxurious dining table and an entire bathroom with a shower in it what who is this for if this is before the flight what have I gotten myself into really this crazy I sat down at my dining table for some salmon I still can't believe they have someone making this good of food in the middle of the night after that the two security guys picked me up and took me to the gate for our final [Music] flight guys this is unbelievable I immediately walk in to my coffee order I enjoyed my cappuccino and played some Angry Birds some things never change I guess I don't even think the flight has officially begun boarding this is going to be crazy and we're off a 13-hour flight back to the United States and I flying in the residence there's so much stuff that comes with this seat I don't even think I can call it a seat frankly if you ask me what this background is before I stepped foot in here I wouldn't even be able to tell you it's a plane this looks like an apartment I can't believe I'm about to say this about an airplane seat but how about a tour this is the main seating area with a TV and two seats this time we have not one but two blankets this bench area has um an entire refrigerator fully stocked with sodas and Voss water what in the world man this is crazy the other benches are for storage you can put stuff in there the seat also comes with noise cancelling earphones which work great if you want to prepare to watch the penny series movie the seats also have buttons that can assist you during the flight look what happens if you press the fork button ooh wow a snack just kidding the flight attendant brought it it was just a joke but this fun drink is not a joke there's also a in station and a touchscreen remote control but now for the reason they call this seat the residence all right this is ridiculous a little bit of turbulence to my left is the bathroom and you you are standing on a bed I mean this is outrageous isn't this crazy I am on an airplane so this is a big bed I'm definitely going to be taking a nap what is this okay so they literally give you jammies do I anticipate a Jammy time tonight that would get crazy there's also a really thick sleep mask slip sers they also give you tons of nice skin care I'm definitely taking this home and the last feature of the residence a private bathroom with a shower I don't know I don't get it I don't get it this bathroom is actually so nice we're still rocking the tile from basic I love it pretty standard stuff up here but this little towel rack is cute once again not one but two mirrors and yeah the fact that there's a shower in here is absurd I came back to the main seating area and had a steak dinner which I absolutely housed and while I was doing some top secret work in my bed room I Got a notification that said we left another surprise for you the best on Earth guys they have joy ride isn't that crazy okay I asked them to put that there you may be wondering Ryan what were you absolutely locked in on on your computer for the past few days well I love doing work on airplanes and I have been spending some much needed time on Joy ride's Shopify The Joy Ride website is pretty built out but I just like having fun with it the best part about Shopify is you can literally build anywhere I'm in the tropo sphere I think that's where I am I've been considering making a subscription for Joy Ride customers who want a candy refill every month they might as well get a discount and Shopify subscription app makes that extremely easy the only problem is we've kind of had trouble staying in stock so that would most likely be a bad idea right now the point is the options there but Shopify magic is what I've been doing on this entire trip it's as fun as it sounds I've been working on a landing page I'm just calling it landing page was like a airplane joke the only people who will ever know about it are watching this video I used Shopify magic for AI product descriptions look at this I asked it to describe my candy with some airplane puns it crushed it that's that's amazing also the background removal tool for product images so nice and finally I made the candy automatically 20% off because if you find this page you deserve it come on honestly we would not be able to do what we do at joy ride without Shopify it is the best Commerce platform in the world if your dreams are small if your dreams are big Shopify is
