Hi everyone! Today is a really exciting video because I'm on my way to Taipei
and I'm gonna be abroad for a whole month. And the first order of business is
that I am flying Premium Economy! Usually when I book a flight I always get like
the cheapest option down there, but yeah this time I'm flying Premium Economy
so I'm super freaking excited. I'm flying Eva Airlines from SFO to Taipei -- that
sounds weird. San Francisco to Taipei. And I'm just super excited I mean
it's no business class, but there might be a business class a video coming
on the way later. But yeah I'm really excited to share with you guys so we're
gonna board in about 20 minutes so I'll take you guys along with me let's go
oh my gosh so we just sat down and they literally just handed me water I feel
like a queen this has never happened to me before and what's nice is that no
one's sitting next to me so I actually have this seat but I get this nice
window view so yeah let me give you a full-blown tour we got some pretty good
leg space and plenty of space to put your backpack or whatever let's see what
amenities they have here we got some slippers oh my god this is like so
bougie I don't know bougie for me because I'm
such a peasant so yeah let me just put these on so comfy I feel like a princess
let's see what else we have in here Oh headphones they look pretty nice they
even have this nice cushion all right now let's see what they gave me in this
little baggie so we got some earplugs and we even got socks
dang okay these are actually really really soft and nice they feel so
comfortable like just feeling them in my hands right now and then we got an eye
mask of course they'll be great for when I want to take my food coma nap
hopefully the Foods good we got this moisturizer facial hydrator
that's really nice for the plane ride here we got a toothbrush and then we got
a comb you know got a touch-up my hair sometimes I guess here we got some
mouthwash two-in-one mouthwash nice and then also some lip balm you know my lips
get trapped really easily especially on the plane so this is so perfect
alright this is the stream it's pretty big here's my hand for reference I don't
know if that's even helpful because you don't know how big my hand is but I'd
say it's pretty decently big of a hand so there's your difference and we have a
little funky thing here that you could I don't know put your headphones on or
something and then the first thing I notice is that there's no tray table so
maybe that's what this is I think you hold this
open oh cool you have like an option to have it like half or full which is nice
I got the seat in the back so that way I don't have to disturb the people behind
me because I always feel so bad so usually I don't even blame the seat back
because I don't want to take up other people's space but this way I can do it
without feeling guilty that leans back pretty decently look at this who is she
she's bougie now this is so comfortable this is seriously life-changing oh my
god so with the foot rest and being able to lean back so far this is really nice
and comfortable this is gonna make the 13 hour flight
so much better I already know it oh yeah and let me just talk about the check-in
process and everything really quick so Premium Economy has their own line which
is really nice it really speeds up the process of checking in and then I was
also able to board earlier I mean I guess this is all just like common sense
for people that do this often but this is my first time so I'm just gonna enjoy
every little bit of it that I can
all right now that we've taken off I can see how nice these headphones actually
are but I can't figure out where I'm supposed to plug this
well like so
I thought it would be here like I don't think so so here's the TV remote here it
is I found it
oh and here we have some USB chargers because of outlets down
there all right these demos are pretty
to them and they just gave us all
okay so we just got our first meal look at so it looks like we got this little
salad with shrimp we got some fruit so I'm dressing my thing
but bread and a roll type thing player and then let's reveal this oh my god
it's really hot
I got the three cup chicken with rice and vegetables especially and it looks
not bad the chicken looks very fatty and juicy
to the vegetables look pretty fresh but I guess we'll see they actually just
came around engaging gave me another piece of bread it's different from this
one that one's more plain this one looks like a some kind of like sun-dried
tomato flavor I also see but I mean when you ask me if I want carbs of course I'm
going to say yes so here is my full complete meal can't wait to dig in I'm
so freakin hungry I didn't eat lunch we're getting on the light mr. chai this
shrimp appetizer
the shrimp is cooked pretty well how's that crunch but the flavor is cut off
it's not the worst though
oh and there's a hood install of - I didn't say
they just gave me an ice cream there I'm hella excited about this all right I'm
just gonna take right into the entree I'm so excited
okay over the chicken is juicy for sure has a nice flavor
not sure if I would say it's really three cup chicken flavor okay
it's really good it's nice and saucy so you can just like eat it with the rice
and the rice is really soft they give you a really big chunks of
chicken
I'm not bad about it let's try some of these meds
just your typical standard like steamed veggies I think when you mix it all
together it's actually pretty good we just try this button it's very fluffy in
time and still one which is really nice and then I guess I'll try this second
piece of bread there's a lot more so I don't think you'll be as good
the top actually has this kind of crispy on top it's party time
now this would actually be really really good that it was warm gonna get into the
salad
vegetables are pretty fresh still have that nice French parmesan helps it a lot
actually better than I expected the salad now I'm going to start moving on
to the sweet stuff so I'm gonna try they think this is the honeydew and
actually my fork just slides through it it's literally like butter look how
easily it cut
we are in it says we moon without so bad
so Disney Joe watermelon also just cut with my pork
I was not expecting the birds to be so freakin good
so sweet so juicy like these fruits are way better than what I usually eat
to finish my okay finish almost everything but here's the star of the
show to me because I love dessert I've got a love haagen-dazs ice cream
oh my god yes so the so Freeman vanilla so sweet I mean
pretty sure you guys probably know but vanilla haagen-dazs tastes like right
then after I finished eating I decided to look through all the different
choices they had for entertainment so like TV shows and movies and they had a
decent selection of movies but not really a great selection of TV shows so
I just settled for this food truck nation show because apparently even
after I just finished eating I still need to think about food throughout the
flight they handed out snacks every now and then and it was really great that I
think almost all the snacks were actually like Asian snacks so like rice
crackers and Asian snack mix and stuff like that so that was really cool and we
also had our own bathroom section so this is only for the people that were a
premium economy which is me so it was a pretty small bathroom I'd say it's
probably about the same as the economy bathrooms but it does come with some
cool free stuff like they have toothbrushes sleep masks and earplugs
which are all things that we got in the amenity kit they also have some fancy
looking glow shins and soaps and those things and I just like to try their
facial mist to give myself a little refresher and they also have a full-body
mirror which is cool so you can check your coat edy and I was looking like I'm
wearing pajamas but you know still cute the sink also was an automatic sink
which I've actually never seen in an airplane before so that was really cool
and then I decided to take a nap the pillows and blankets were actually
really nice that blanket was super super soft and had a furry side which took me
really warm throughout the flight it was really really comfortable
so they haven't fed us really since like right after we took off so we're having
our second meal now and it's only like less than two hours left until we land
so that's like eleven hours or something without
heating this is a 13 hour flight so I'm like super hungry and on the menu I saw
that they also would give like a sandwich but I guess that you have to
actually request it I thought they were just give it to me I don't know maybe I
missed something because you know like I said I'm a new first time flying Premium
Economy I don't know but anyway I'm super starving we just got our meal so
let's take a look so I got the western style option which is this mushroom
risotto with chicken there's the mushroom risotto we got some
broccoli here there's a pasta salad with roast beef and cheese we got fruits
which I hope are as sweet as our other meal
and a black currant cake and also a piece of bread I start off
with this mushroom risotto with chicken actually looks pretty promising
because others really machine and it doesn't really have a great flavor to it
I don't know the textures just kind of just like really mushy rice not a huge
man honestly about this chicken is like really hard to cut through I feel like
it just you can tell it's going to be super try
there goes
oh god those dries up so hard on it this is like low-key like chewing on the
cardboard getting the first meal was so promising do such as is employment all
right gotta get my veggies then
s'alright not as good as other ridges we got either kind of like overcooked a
little marching just paste kind of old let's go in for this roast beef and
cheese pasta salad
just tastes like I don't know packaged deli meat Richard
isn't the worst thing in the world I mean I like this better than that entree
though
I want to try some of this bread next it looks like it has some seeds and dried
fruits
oh it's like whole grain which is healthy I like the other bread
better definitely need water to swallow them
I think this meal is definitely not as good as the first one but I hope that
these fruits will be just as good as the first fruits
so sweet
the cantaloupe though is not as good as a first time around
Oh weird all right let's go to antennas cake
black currant cake
pretty much it looks and tastes like those little cake squares that you would
get at like those Asian buffets comment below if you know what I'm talking about
but it's like this is a very specific thing they'll always have these kind of
like cake squares it tastes exactly like that whoosh there's not a horrible thing
but I wouldn't describe it as a good thing do there that's a nice fruity
flavor to it but also as you can see this is like mostly mousse or cream and
very little cake at the water and just like that we were landing in
