i can't believe it we made our flight
honestly that was so stressful
we haven't flown for three years
and it turns out i'm a little bit out of practice
totally didn't give enough time for us to get to our gate
but we made it just in time
this is our first time flying in over three years
we decided to treat ourselves a little bit
so we're going premium economy all the way to christchurch new zealand
we just flew from bangkok to singapore
and someone was kicking my seat the whole time
I was really cramped in
i'm excited for that little bit of extra room
i'm excited to show you guys around premium economy on singapore airlines
and really excited to show you more of new zealand
let's go
so we're flying on singapore airlines a bus 350-900
i don't know whether it's just because we haven't flown in so long
but the plane honestly looks so majestic
the sun is starting to set here
and everything out the window looks seriously beautiful
i'm so excited to check out premium economy
we've just found our seat
and already this is so exciting
like i just had a little look around
we've got these lights over here which is so good for reading
i'm always like one of those annoying people
who wants to read all through the night with like the light on
but i've got my own little one here
and because this is premium economy
we don't just get your usual economy style headphones
we get these big ones
i think they're noise cancelling as well
like i can barely hear anything with these on
that's so cool
another few awesome touches are we had our very own water bottles here waiting for us
just in front of us there's a little shelf with a bottle each
that's so cool
one of the other really cool things about this seat
is we've got a footrest
it might not sound like much
but any little bit of space really really helps
that's one of the special things about premium economy as well
you're not too close to the seats next to you
and you've also just got way more space in general
we're pretty lucky where we're sitting right now
there's no one behind us
we've just got a wall behind us
so i can put my seat back
i don't have to worry about anyone kicking it like our last one
it's so good
i'm so reclined right now this is crazy
i'm really excited to show you more of this flight
showing you more of the premium economy experience on singapore airlines
and of course let's see what the food's all about
one of the things i had totally forgotten about is these cool little handsets
i think that means there might be some games aboard
and i love playing games
i'm so excited to explore this
and i guess i've got about eight and a half hours to do it
another thing i hadn't seen before are the seat belts
they're like super padded it's really random
like i wouldn't say they're necessarily more comfy
than like a normal seat belt
but it's really weird
so we're about an hour into our flight now
and our first meal that's just arrived
it's actually the same meal we take on our flight to singapore
but luckily that was really yummy
so we don't really mind having it again
we're both vegetarians
so today we have pasta with chickpeas and kidney beans
we've also got this really yummy dessert again
the same one we have on our last flight
it's like a lemon kind of tart
served with a little bit of peach
but i've also got a side salad
and it looks like there's some kind of yummy cheese in there
kind of like burrata
and then of course we've got a bread roll
a must-have when you're on a flight
it's literally the middle of the night
i am so tired
i've just been watching spider-man no way home
and i'm just about to finish and then i think i'm going to bed
I just popped to the bathroom so i could wash my face
take out my contact lenses
and pop on my glasses
which is what i normally do when i go on long-haul flights
okay glasses are on now it's time to go to bed
so i've just woken up after about two hours of sleep
and it's time for breakfast
i'll be honest i'm not really hungry right now
i was really enjoying my sleep
but it does smell pretty good
today it looks like we've got a classic bread roll with butter
which i always love so much on a plane
we've also got a little fruit salad
we've got some orange juice
some yogurt
and i thought we had scrambled eggs with vegetables
but i think it might be a tofu scramble
so let's dig in and see what it all tastes like
so we're about 40 minutes away from landing in christchurch
and i just wanted to give my final thoughts on the seat
from the moment we sat down
we were just like wow
we've kind of only ever traveled economy before
and there's just such an immediate difference just straight off the bat
this chair is so much more spacious
it leans back so far
even though i kind of noticed like further on the flight
because we're in the back row our seat doesn't go as far back as other ones
like it still goes really really far back
it's just so much more comfy
the seat itself is made of like a different fabric than the chairs and economy
it's just honestly really comfortable
i can't say enough good things about it
i definitely recommend premium economy
it's just such a total luxury and it doesn't really cost that much extra
it's totally worth it
especially when you're on a long-haul flight like this
and it's made such a difference being in a nice comfortable seat for the last nine hours
we're just about to land in christchurch
and i can't wait to show you guys around new zealand
