Emirates Airlines recently upgraded Casey Neistat to first class. He filmed the experience, and it's a nine-minute testament to obscene flying decadence.

There's a drinks bar that magically slides out of the windowsill at the push of a button. There's a cooked-to-order menu that includes 21-year-old scotch and caviar. There's all kinds of swag, including slippers and pajamas, and a chair that converts to a bed (complete with a flight attendant to make it). Set largely in a secluded pod with a set of mechanical doors, there's also the centerpiece—a five-minute shower at 43,000 feet above sea level.

The airline gave the YouTube filmmaker a courtesy bump on a 14-hour flight from Dubai to New York.
