Creator's Key Takeaways

this was easily the best etad crew that I've ever had they were just very personable chatty and present

overall this was a wonderful flight and I think a good preview of what's to come from EAD

the seat is definitely not perfect its design has aged pretty well

one massive Improvement for etad is the reintroduction of seat covers their new one is cleverly designed

Check the lounge options at Bangkok airport to avoid overcrowded lounges
Consider the new Etihad business class seat for its design and comfort improvements

I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!
