About Etihad (from Wikipedia):
Etihad Airways (Arabic: شَرِكَة ٱلْاِتِّحَاد لِلطَّيْرَان, romanized: sharikat al-ittiḥād li-ṭ-ṭayarān) is the national airline of the United Arab Emirates and one of the country's two major airlines (the other being Emirates). Its head office is in Khalifa City, Abu Dhabi, near Abu Dhabi International Airport. Etihad commenced operations in November 2003. It is the second-largest airline in the UAE after Emirates. The name Etihad is Arabic for 'Union'.

The airline operates more than 1,000 flights per week to over 120 passenger and cargo destinations in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America, with a fleet of 102 Airbus and Boeing aircraft as of February 2020. In 2015, Etihad carried 14.8 million passengers, a 22.3% increase from the previous year, delivering revenues of US$9.02 billion and net profits of US$103 million. Its main base is Abu Dhabi International Airport.

About A380 (from Wikipedia):
The Airbus A380 is a large wide-body airliner that was developed and produced by Airbus. It is the world's largest passenger airliner and only full-length double-deck jet airliner. Airbus studies started in 1988, and the project was announced in 1990 to challenge the dominance of the Boeing 747 in the long-haul market. The then-designated A3XX project was presented in 1994; Airbus launched the €9.5 billion ($10.7 billion) A380 programme on 19 December 2000. The first prototype was unveiled in Toulouse on 18 January 2005, with its first flight on 27 April 2005. It then obtained its type certificate from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on 12 December 2006.

    yay!! Nonstop Dan has returned for his honest flight reviews once again!! So glad he's back after his break from social media in August! Great review and keep up with the hard work :)
  • @delta_cosmic
    Just noticed you reached 777k subscribers, congrats! Maybe its time to upload a 777 of any airline review. It's also nice to see Etihad make a huge comeback and even financially they're finally making a good profit now.
  • @BurntTransGarage
    Wow, I've never felt poorer in my life. First time I ever had heated nuts was on a United domestic flight in the US and it was amazing! I did win an upgrade to business with Air Canada returning from Buenos Aires (12hrs to Montreal), but I was too sick to really enjoy it. Given my stomach issues from traveling to a new country, it surely was a better experience than the premium economy seat I originally booked. Thanks for the content, Dan. I would LOVE to have a flight like that for a good 12hr trip.
  • @spenym14
    Great video as always. The first video on your channel I watched was your previous Etihad A380 Apartments review. It’s cool to see how your videos have evolved over the years and have gotten better and better. Congratulations as well for hitting 777K subscribers.

    00:50 “London Heathrow the worst airport in Europe” Lisbon frequent flyers laughing in the corner
  • @persnwasded
    Love your channel! The way you're so honest and not sugarcoating anything or accepting sponsorships is what makes me feel that way.

    Dan is Back! Finally get to see more plant-based food around the world!
  • @dansharpe2364
    When the entire point of the obscene luxury is absolute comfort a too hard bed is not a first world problem.
  • @TravelSingFly
    I just stepped out of the Etihad A380 First Class Apartments in London for my upcoming report - and I have a feeling that, summing up all details and parts of it (except for the lounge), this is now the best first class in the world. Comparing with the competition in the Arab Peninsula, and also Singapore Airlines First Class Suites and Cathay First Class. They simply offer it all..... (however, not the excellent wines that only Emirates has)
  • @remyjansen
    That last review was an absolute classic. Looking forward to this one!
  • @MuzixMaker
    I don’t see twentysomethings flying first on their own dime. Prices aren’t discussed, wonder why.
  • @baanikulria8695
    Etihads boarding music is soooo euphoric…. but nothing beats the old one !
  • @jasonrigas8697
    If I'm honest it's a little heartbreaking to watch this knowing that even economy is over budget for me rn. But I love these two sweet Swedes! Ohhhh I love them.
  • @evs251
    I remember when you did the first brutally honest Etihad review and you got quite a lot of unwarranted hate for that. I love that you make honest reviews and don't let anyone pressure you to sugarcoat these reviews.
  • @jensjordhul5205
    Congrats on 777K Subs Dan! Glad to have been a subscriber for a while.
  • Whoa! That vacation time did a Dan good! Thanks for coming back with another fantastic flight review. We missed you!
