Luxury travel is no longer limited to five-star hotels, private villas or exclusive resorts. For those willing to spend a little more, the journey itself can become a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Imagine having a spacious living room to unwind in, a separate bedroom to sleep in and your own en-suite bathroom, all within the confines of an aircraft.
Etihad Airways' Airbus A380 takes this concept to another level with The Residence. Spanning a private living room, bedroom and en-suite bathroom, The Residence offers far more than the conventional first-class cabin.
The lavish suite combines spacious interiors with personalised hospitality, allowing travellers to relax, dine and sleep in separate spaces while making their way to their destination.

The cabin also has a dedicated shower and restroom area with a Giorgio Armani amenity kit, including creams, eye masks, socks, and other necessary toiletries.
Other services include gourmet dining, inflight Wi-Fi and a boutique wine list comprising expensive liquors. The bespoke journey is available on select flights between Abu Dhabi, London, New York, and Paris. According to AFAR, a full one-way ticket for this flight generally ranges from $20,000 to $30,000 depending on the route and length of the flight.
