Josie Gibson, presenter of Channel 5’s “Around the World in First Class,” continues her jet-setting adventures this Friday, landing in the vibrant city of Hong Kong. For those of us stuck in economy (or, let’s be honest, on the couch), Gibson’s travels offer a vicarious taste of the high life – and this week, that taste is extra luxurious.
Forget cramped airplane seats and budget hotels. Gibson flies first class on Cathay Pacific, settling into a level of comfort most of us only dream of. Her Hong Kong basecamp? The Rosewood Hotel, ranked the third best in the world. A personal butler attends to her every need, ensuring her stay is nothing short of opulent.
But Gibson doesn’t just lounge in luxury. She takes to the waters on a private yacht, circling Hong Kong’s stunning islands and soaking in the breathtaking views. Later, she experiences the city’s vibrant nightlife aboard the Aqua Luna, a traditional junk boat, while indulging in delicious dim sum. There’s even time for cocktails in the Rosewood’s exclusive executive bar and a shopping spree in a high-end designer mall – because, why not?
“Around the World in First Class” isn’t just about extravagance; it’s about exploring different cultures through the lens of luxury travel. This Friday’s episode looks into Hong Kong’s unique blend of modern sophistication and traditional charm, all while highlighting the perks of first-class travel. Tune in to Channel 5 on Friday, March 21st at 8 PM to join Josie on her high-flying adventure.
