In this video I am trying five levels of airplane seats going from the cheapest to the most expensive airlines
However, I only have one rule
I must fly in the best seat that each airline has to offer and we're starting with Ryanair
Now Ryanair is probably one of the cheapest airlines in the world and they get a lot of hate for their extra baggage fees
Strict luggage rules and poor customer service, but hopefully by buying their best seat we can skip all that nonsense
Right
So on Ryanair's best seat, I've already been fined 70 euros and I'm standing out here in the cold
Good start after 15 minutes of waiting in the cold with a t-shirt on a bus arrived to take us to our plane
But because we were last on the plane
Luckily the flight attendants got the people in the back to move their bags, but they weren't very happy about it
Let's hope they don't cause any problems for us later in the flight
But hey, look now we're taking off. It's probably a good time to see what this upgraded seat has to offer
This is definitely the most uncomfortable seat
I've ever sat in in my life. This headrest is absolutely
Just it's abysmal. The armrests are only big enough for one person to use
And I also have a tray table which has some stains on it
Oh, that's lovely. Yeah, this is pretty much just a normal Ryanair seat
However, because i'm at the front of the plane now I get access to extra leg room
So it's not all bad throughout the levels
I'm going to be judging these seats based on four different factors at the end of each flight
I'll give them an overall score out of 20
Guys i'm at 99.9% sure the people up behind me are letting off gas and it is
Disgusting it's so bad
Unfortunately, even when you have an upgraded ticket there is no free food and drink on this flight
Can I get a Sprite please? Yes. Oh, thank you. This is easily the most expensive Sprite i've ever bought
650 and you know what the worst news was
This isn't the only scam that I was gonna find out about guys
I am in my hotel room right now and I bring bad news. You know that bag that I got fined for
Turns out it was included in my ticket. I think I got unnecessarily fined also my fine
Was twice the price of a normal ticket now surely for an upgraded ticket you get a better toilet, right? Um
Well, no, but you are closer to it. Well, this is the most um
Cramped bathroom in the world. There is a a nice mirror right here
another nice mirror right here
and
And one right here. You have some napkins
Now even though the toilet does look like this if you are bursting for the bathroom it is right next to you
Guys Ryanair might not have scored well on comfort service and bathroom
However, no one can beat that $85 price tag for upgraded legroom and to be first off the plane
But now we've got to move on to our level two seats with british airways
Again, i've upgraded to their best seat available. So let's see what this gets us
We are now in business class
You wouldn't assume it but we're in business class
This seat costs twice as much as a normal ticket. So let's see what it gets us our headrest now folds
I'd say we get a questionable amount of legroom
I'm trying to get comfortable here guys, but I actually had more legroom in right there
That's not that's not good. Hey, at least I can recline my seat now
I can't believe how much money I paid for this
Guys, i've just looked behind me
and
All of the economy class seats are exactly the same as this
I feel like the only thing they've added to these seats is this little napkin and the tray table
This thing is currently sitting on I can see why the entire cabin is empty around me
Who is paying double the price for that?
Well me apparently
We've got lights above us
We've got air vents and the best news is because no one else wants to pay the absurd price for this ticket
You can actually have all three vents to yourself. I mean no one else is going to use them are like
I'm the only person on my road. We also now have access to the internet
Yikes, but don't worry guys. The bad internet speed is going to be the least of your worries
I just paid for the wi-fi like two minutes ago. It's still half an hour of our flight to go
Now i'm not going to be completely negative about this flight halfway through they did offer me some breakfast and the staff were
Just like one or two and not only that the croissants were amazing
However, were they an extra 158 dollars amazing?
No, sorry british airways
Welcome, uh to the british airways bathroom
It's kind of cramped in here. I can't lie. We have a tap soap napkins. I've never seen air conditioning in what is basically
A economy bathroom. It is very standard in here and very small
I don't know what else to say
However, because of how badly valued this seat is no one else wanted to fly in business
So I got the entire bathroom to myself and hey a private bathroom is actually quite a luxury on an airplane
So although the price isn't really that good british airways gets a 9 out of 20
But now we've got to move on to our third most expensive best seat which is with united airlines
This seat is 4.4 times the amount of a normal ticket. So let's see if it's worth it
Okay, the amount of free stuff you get here is kind of insane so guys this is my united airlines seat
Okay, so to start things off the amount of free things we get in this plane seat is unreal we get pillows we get blankets
We get an amenity kit with a load of creams eye masks, and I even get socks
Guys, I can't lie. I was very excited to fly this seat considering how the past two have been
So let's take a look at how the comfort is in this seat I finally have leg room we have a table which is pretty much
Double the size of a normal airplane table, but that's not the only table I have
I also have one next to me here and above it. There's actually a little pop-out mirror which holds up water and some headphones
It's pretty nice. Now the address is pretty complicated. However, i've only got one extra pillow
But two I also get not only one but two different blankets
Can't lie. I feel very snug right now. Also look what my chair can do
That's right. I have my very own bed. I know this might look like i'm in a bit of a coffin
However, it's big enough for me and i'm quite comfortable
I had to get up at 3 a.m to get this flight. So I took a quick power nap
But I must admit this bed was incredibly comfortable
Compared to the last seat
There is an unreal amount of tech in this seat. First up. We got a big touchscreen tv
It's got everything you could ever want on here games movies
It's big I have so many
different seat recline options
It's actually unreal. We've got three different lights. We've got one right here one up there
And a little lamp to the side. We've got one big power outlet two usbs
You're never gonna go short of power we got a controller that's also a game remote with a full qwerty keyboard
I think this button here calls a flight attendant
Oh, what's some of the snacks are there for me? Oh, that'd be okay. Thank you
Okay, so they did actually put all the snacks away. However, they've made an exception for me. Thank you, sir
So that's pretty good
Now as soon as you get onto this flight
You do actually get given a huge menu of food to choose from and they can bring it to you at any point during the
Flight, could I go for the the beef please the beef tagliatelle? Okay. Yes
Very good. Thank you very much
So I ordered it and I was gonna test out if this food was four times worth the price of a normal ticket
Food is coming
Listen, i'm a simple man and I thought this meal was absolutely delicious
They even gave me a hot towel after I was finished to wipe down my face
But okay guys is trying to check out the bathroom
Okay, this is the first bathroom why I haven't got a crouch
To be able to stand up in it. This is actually
Quite big. We've got some really big mirrors. We've actually got some nice amenities now like some face mist and some hand soaps
Oh wait, just for getting rid of creases out of the clothes
I don't think I should have sprayed it on my face
However, my flight was now coming to an end
So I made it back to my seat and took in the view as I made my way
Into the united states of america overall
I really did enjoy this flight getting to sleep on an airplane is an absolute luxury and although
It is four times the amount of a normal ticket. I'm giving united a 16 out of 20. It was a very nice seat
Now the reason I am in america is because I have some extremely exciting news
So you might remember last year I partnered with omen hyperx and intel to build my sister's dream room and they are now giving me
The opportunity to do someone else's now
The reason I flew over to america was because they've got an insane bunch of products that they have just released at ces
Which I am going to be putting in this dream room
First up is the new hyperx omen max 16
Which is powered by the very latest intel core ultra 200 hx processors and an rtx 5090
It can use up to 300 watts of power now and has a 240 hertz screen
That is a laptop with desktop level performance
It's also got newer advanced cooling technology that can literally remove dust buildup
So when you're gaming for long sessions your laptop stays cool. That is the power of intel inside
Next up is the 34 inch hyperx oled monitor, which delivers a
360 hertz refresh rate as you can see by the amazing colors reflecting onto my face. It's gonna make this room look beautiful
It's got custom rgb lighting. They also released the hyperx omen 15
this thing can be specced with a series intel core ultra 9 processor and rtx 5070 has a bunch of different display options and
Features an 8000 hertz polling rate keyboard giving you 34 faster inputs
I will say there was a huge other amount of stuff that was released at ces
Which we do plan to put in the room
So if you want to go check out all this stuff, there will be a link in the description guys
now it's time for our level 4 plane seat with
Air france now air france's best seat is um a lot of money
But let's see what this level 4 seat gets us
Now when I got to the airport a woman took me aside and took me to this thing called sky priority
Where I got through security in about two minutes and then I was put in a car and ushered away to a first class lounge
Okay, this is pretty nice
And whilst i'm waiting for my plane I can do things like take a shower in one of the nicest bathrooms i've ever been in
guys
Look at this there are showers here. There's a robe with slippers the walls
Are padded like you could rest your head up against here
It's like a pillow
Guys, i've got to change every single person that i've seen is wearing some smart suit tie and i'm wearing t-shirt and shorts
so
With my new smart clothes on I was then put in another car and talked to the plane where I could finally test out
This new upgraded air france seat
guys, welcome to
Do I do a seat tour do I do a room tour I think like this curtain makes it a room
We're gonna do a room tour starting with the free stuff you get. Okay, so we get a little box of amenities right here
We've got a bunch of creams an eye mask. This feels like a marshmallow is hugging my face
We also get some earbuds a very nice pen and a comb so I can very fancily comb my hair
We also get a pair of pajamas
And these just feel comfortable, you know, it's fancy when they be bringing out the square buttons
I've got to try these on later and to finish off. We also get some fancy chocolates
This chair
is honestly
So comfortable not only do I have a bunch of seat reclining options if I hit this button right here
My seat turns into a bed have this little footstool. I can stick my feet onto and underneath that there is some storage
What so why have I got four windows for?
Who needs that many windows now the tech in here is pretty amazing. I mean you already saw my chair convert into a bed
however
There are a lot more of the things that make this chair incredibly unique just like our last seat
We get a pair of nice headphones plenty of charging options
And we also have access to an upgraded games controller now
Which has a touchscreen and can control lights around the cabin as well as controlling games on the big tv screen you get
Guys, would you look at that? We now actually have access to good internet
It only took till level four to get this another really cool thing is how my four windows all have automatic blinds
Was this worth 5k?
No
Honestly for the amount I paid for this seat. I am expecting some absolute fine dining and you know what?
That's exactly what I got. I have literally gone from croissants to a whole
White tablecloth banquet. This has a red ribbon around. This is actually too nice
We got two different types of butter. We got salt and pepper. We got
I don't even want to know what that is and we got a lovely coat
That i've just been bought. I don't know why there's two plates here, but I guess that's just how they do it in first class
So this is the air france bathroom
it's um
Nice, we've got toothbrushes down here. We got little towels. We got body cream makeup wipes napkins and coat hangers
Because why not it is a little bit small in here, but it is nice when I got back to my seat
I found that a bed had been made for me
I honestly don't know what to say guys. I'm in a plane in a bed in air france pajamas
Life's good. I'm gonna finish this journey off by testing out this bed and i'll see you in dubai
Although the flight was amazing
I don't think i'll ever be able to bring myself to spend that much on a plane ticket ever again
Oh wait, never mind. We're doing a level five plane seat guys with emirates
Welcome to emirates first class
That's right our curtain that we used to have as a wall
Is now a solid wall. We've leveled up. This place is genuinely just beautiful. It's so nice
I guess it's time for a room tour. First up the leg room is incredible. We get a writing kit that is coming home with me
Whoa, hey guys, I have no idea what any of these mean, but I will take them back home because they seem expensive
Yeah, this ticket was incredibly expensive
So I spent the first 10 minutes in this cabin stealing things to take home with me
You'll understand when you see the price at the end and over here
We have a little mini bar with water we got nuts we got
M&Ms. I also got given a pair of pajamas a pair of slippers and a nice little bag as well. I think
These are real flowers
Yeah, those are real flowers
As you probably guessed the level five plane seat is easily the most technically advanced out of all the ones we've seen so far
I can even adjust the headrest
This literally is perfect
This seat also has the most lighting options out of any seat so far
And we also have a standard set of charging options as well
We also have a big touchscreen tv and in the right arm of my seat. I have a game controller
Also, look at how good the air vents now are
That's windy. Let's check that internet speed again
I mean
It's not great, but it's free
And we are on an airplane
So i'll take it
I don't even know if this is a thing I should be rating the seat on but I will say this seat had easily one
Of the best views out of all of the different plane seats. Oh, wow. Wow
But that was gonna need to wait because I wanted to see what level five service looks like guys I have ordered burgers
and popcorn
But before I could even set up my next shot the popcorn had already arrived and if it only took one minute to make
How was it gonna taste?
That is some of the best popcorn i've ever had
That is amazing and not long after that my burgers also arrived. Thank you. I've got little tiny burgers
But how do the tiny burgers taste
It was a bit hot and I probably shouldn't have had it all in one go
But it was nice time to check out the bathroom
Guys the emirates bathroom
Is very fancy. We've got a mirror here a mirror here and a mirror here. Hello again
They've got real flowers in here comb toothpaste towels
Now I smell a mess, oh look at that they even put a protector on there
Oh, well, they did have a protector on there even though it is a bit small
It is beautiful
Once again, I get a big bed to sleep in and as this fight comes to an end
I gotta say I had an awesome experience on emirates
However, I don't think I can justify the price
So united airlines wins if anyone from united is watching this and wants to sponsor me
Uh, yes, please that would be great
