    What is MasterClass?

    MasterClass is a video learning platform featuring well-known instructors in cooking, writing, film, music and other fields, including Gordon Ramsay and Margaret Atwood. Short lessons fit a hotel evening or a long journey with internet access or content downloaded in advance.

    Why use it when travelling

    Swap another series for a lesson on photography, cooking or storytelling. Think of it as inspiration and insight from experienced people, rather than a school promising a professional qualification.

    Pavel uses MasterClass among the app benefits associated with his Revolut Metal plan. Check eligibility and the level of access in Revolut: a partner benefit may differ from a separately purchased membership.

    How it works

    1. Open MasterClass on the web or install its iOS or Android app.
    2. Review the chosen plan and renewal terms before accepting an offer.
    3. Pick a subject and start with the first lesson of a class.
    4. For offline viewing, check whether your plan supports downloads. Official help lists this feature for Plus and Premium.
    5. Download available lessons in the mobile app over Wi-Fi and test playback without connectivity before departure.

    Who it is best for

    • Curious travellers who want short lessons between journeys.
    • Creators and photographers looking for ideas to try on a trip.
    • People with a partner benefit who should check their access before paying twice.
    • For structured language practice, try Duolingo instead.

    Tips for using it

    • Follow one class rather than jumping between dozens of topics.
    • Not every lesson or plan supports downloads, and web video downloads are not supported.
    • Content is primarily in English; check subtitles for the class you choose.
    • Set a reminder before a trial ends.

    Pricing and things to check

    Standalone membership is paid; confirm current prices, billing and renewal at checkout. Pavel's personal link offers a free 14-day Guest Pass trial. Claiming it involves choosing a plan and providing payment details. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, paid billing begins. Check that the offer remains available and your account is eligible before confirming.

    My verdict

    MasterClass is useful travel inspiration, rather than a replacement for hands-on study. If your plan includes access, use that benefit first. Before a flight, check download support for both your membership and the lessons you want.
