How One Man Got A First Class Suite On Emirates For $300

The blogger was a nervous wreck when he went up to the front desk at the airport, handed his information to the checking agent and wound up with an extravagant worldwide trip in a first class suite on Emirates Airlines. Why was he so nervous? It was probably because he was about to embark on a $60,000 trip by only spending just shy of $300. Using an airfare loophole, this smart traveler was able to book this once in a lifetime trip on the cheap, and he has shared his experience with the world. This is his story.

How’d He Do It?

While he is a little tight-lipped about the particular details of his booking, one of the secrets was that in addition to cashing in his vast Alaska Airlines air miles collection, he was able to book the long flight between Singapore, Melbourne, New York, and everywhere in between, a 21,136 mile trip, by adding numerous layovers to the flight plan. As most regular travelers know, flights with layovers can be much more affordable than straight trips. Having a lot of frequent flier miles doesn’t hurt either.

He Was Treated Like A King Before The Flight Even Started

It is no secret that Emirates is an incredible airline, but most passengers probably do not realize that the amazing service and hospitality begins the second you get your first class ticket. Once he was officially “first class” he was whisked into the first class lounge where he was treated with champagne and food from some of the finest chefs in the world. The lounge also came complete with a fully stocked bar and amazingly comfortable seating. When it came to boarding the plane, he was brought to his own personal loading area where he was able to get on the plane in peace.

He Was Amazed By His Personal Suite

When this guy first stepped into his personal suite aboard the Airbus A380, he knew he was in heaven. Everything in the spacious suite was lined in gold, and the fully automated bar was the cherry on the cake. As he experienced the smoothest take off he’s ever felt, he sat back and enjoyed some of the amazing amenities that a first class suite on Emirates will get you.

First, he was given a hot towel to help him relax, and then he ordered the most delicious Spanish omelet that he had ever eaten. Finally, he enjoyed a glass of Hennessy Paradis cognac, one of the most exquisite drinks in the world. The trip resumed as he continued to see the world while flying in the most gorgeous suites with the most amazing services the airline industry has to offer. He truly traveled in style, and he did it all for just under $300.
