I'm flying to Tokyo in one of these in April, I'm over 6'4", my boss asked to show him what seat I chose, and he upgraded me to business class. stuff like this is why I will stay with them for another 10 years.
@spicyshizz2850 greatest time of my life. Tokyo is my favorite place ever. I won't return to kyoto. Too much I didn't like. I ended up "commuting" to osaka, nara, kobe for the second half of my vacation haha
@PackersFAN780 I loved the flight, no issues whatsoever. I flew united, and upgraded my flight to bulkhead seats(i think thats its name. The first row separating 1st class and premium was where i sat, there was an emergency exit on this row), so I had the boarding aisle for legroom. I paid for wifi, hit my vape, and chilled. Bad turbulence over the Midwest states. I downloaded movies and shows, and had my switch. Could have been much much worse.
I love this design. When I flew from chicago to frankfurt it was the most comfortable flight I have had. The design feels very cozy and the partition of rooms gives it a great ambience. It feels bigger in the seats. The seats are more comfortable. The premium seats are wonderful. If you are a couple the two seaters are very romantic. It has its own little cabin with more leg room. Love it! Enjoy you guys.
The premium seats have their own cabin, or partition. So it makes it cozy. Youre gonna love your flight to Spain my friend! Im so happy youre taking your gf. I wish my bf would do that too ;)
I hope in the future, American puts a 787-8 on a route from Raleigh-Durham to somewhere in Asia. The airport is 3 miles from the largest research park in the United States and is home to 2.4 million people. It’s actually smarter to put the flight at RDU rather than CLT if it were to happen because traffic to Asia from passengers going through RDU is 30% higher than that at Charlotte despite it being a hub. JetBlue (AA’s new codeshare partner) has recently added several destinations and has hinted at more destinations in 2021 as we as a potential base when the industry recovers. AA currently flies to London out of here and Delta to Paris with both of them consistently selling out with tickets being $1,400 round trip not including the very high cargo demand from some of the 230 companies at the research park.
Hi, Charlie, once again please let me say a very big "THANK YOU" and "THUNBS UP" for took me together with you onboard this very beautiful and gorgeous airliner. Yesterday (2021-05-20) I spend a whole day full of plane-action at the Frankfurt Rhein-Main airport. Germany,s biggest airport.There is a small visitor-terrace in the forest but very close to the taxiways and the mostly used main runway. Espectially the biggest long-haul airliners will approaching- and touch-down here. I could spotted many UNITED and AMERICAN flights. Very impressed for me. Both airlines only used their brand-new Boeing 787-Dreamliner-fleet across the big pond to Europe and Germany. Air Canada too and their also mighty looking Boeing 777-300ER. Only DELTA visited us with an relativ old Airbus A330-300. But Air India, Saudia, Usbekistan Airways, ETIHAD, Oman Air, Cathay Pacific, Air China, China Southern and Singapore Airlines always for me are very nice and colorful visitors. I have took the German high-speed ICE train from Düsseldorf Main Station to the Frankfurt/Main Airport airport-station. A ride of only 1 hour and 40 min.
Charlie, I just subscribed to you channel because I found what I needed on your video. My Wife and I are scheduled to travel on March 23rd. on a B787-8 and we are very excited to flying on it for the first time.
Hi! Row 10, seats D, E, H - it says no floor storage, but it looks like you can fit a small bag or purse under the seat (half wall separating premium economy from economy) in front of you?
This is a nice interior. I wish American Airlines put that interior on all their 737s, A321s, A319s, and A320s and have the premium economy seats in the first class section.
To make up for the lost economy seats taken up by the new first class booths, we will now be cramming an extra 40 seats into economy by way of removing 2 more inches from the width of the seats and another 1 1/2 inches from the leg room. Should you be to horizontally gifted to fit within the confines of your now 15 inch seat, you will be charged an additional 300 dollars to pay for the 1 1/4 seats you now take up! Additionally, due to the decrease in leg room and to get ahead of the problem of passengers fighting, the seats will no longer possess the ability to recline. Thank you for Flying American Airlines!
@@charliesussman you fooled me and I thought you were en route across the Pacific in business class on a dreamliner. This current situation has made airlines fly their nicest birds on short routes I see. 😁🤷♂️
Exactly! It was great to catch it on this short hop! Although, hopefully this bird will resume more longer passenger flights as the covid situation gets better.
The new slimline seats are pretty bad. They lack cushioning. The recline mechanism is easily broken and the seat back pocket is held together with a wire coat hanger that is easily broken. Most of the seats in main cabin at the emergency exit and bulkhead behind Premium Econony are even smaller in width. Fine for a short flight but for a 10 hour flight it's unbearable. Not to mention the IFE are touch screen which means if someone plays a game behind you, you feel the seat jiggle every time someone touches the screen. No more remote controls.

Are the partitions in the center FC seats now working? I’m wanting to book them for my husband and I but I keep reading how there were issues and they didn’t work.
After the AA merger with USAir, the stock price took a big jump. For a fair number of years, however, it has been dog crap. Why? Were they not watching what DL and NWA did?
Why’d they pick such bland colors? Even UA has navy in first, purple in premium economy, and blue in main cabin. I guess AA goes for a more professional look?
wish we could fly these nice aircraft domestically instead of being stuffed into 737s, 757s, both cattle cars. bring back DC10s L1011s, anything but the sardine cans we are made to fly in while traveling in our country

@@roninsteel that’s cool I wish I could fly on the 787 eventually.
In ten days will be my first time on board of a B-787. Hope this experience to remain as one my greatest memories.
How was your experience?
Yeah, how was it?
@@DVelez-wz3fe it was cool.
@@ElteacherMurcia wasn’t all it cracked up to be huh considering the initial comment then the it was cool 😂
Did you live? Lol
I reckon this new layout would be easier to clean, since Im an aircraft cleaner at Heathrow and mostly do the AA 787 & 777-200s
Has the same configuration as the previous 787-8, but less bulky seats in Main Cabin!
Flying this baby in a month to cdmx . I’ve been on a 787 900 to new york and that was a wonderful experience

Chicago... my home city!
What do you mean when you said it has its own cabin? I’m getting the two seater with my GF to go to Spain! It has more leg room than the other seats?
The premium seats have their own cabin, or partition. So it makes it cozy. Youre gonna love your flight to Spain my friend! Im so happy youre taking your gf. I wish my bf would do that too ;)
@@traciannveno aww thank you 🖤🖤
Love it! Looks comfortable in the main cabin. My hubby fly this one, AA 787 Dreamliner. ❤️🙏
I'll be flying on one of the American 787-8's in a month from Maui to Dallas. I'm looking forward to it.
How was it? I'm going Dallas to Honolulu in 2 days on one!

@Logan Donnelly Raleigh has a larger research area and a lot of the 230 companies in the research park have a headquarters in Asia
Dude immediately backed up before I could see the legroom for seat 10A and 20A lol.
I was trying to see the double seats (H and J) in Row 39 🤣🤣
Better shot towards the end. I just booked that exact seat and came here for the same thing 😂
Awesome tour Charlie!! It's really a nice upgrade from the older seat designs.
Thanks, Hadi! I agree; the cabin looks sleek and very comfortable. Looking forward to your PE review.
I don,t know this "old" seat-design. But you will be so perfectly right. The Dreamliner is my most favourite Boeing jet.
@@charliesussman Are they comfortable on long haul flights? Are you still able to recline?
Amaizing 787_8 Dreamliners.i.love.them..

Flying to Paris on this plane ✈️ next week!!! Looks very comfortable!😊

Hopefully the new seats give more legroom. I remember being on a flight from ORD TO FCO was not too comfortable in economy on this plane.
Great vid Charlie especially on my favourite plane the Dreamliner from American 👌🏻🙌🏻👏🏼😊
This is a nice interior. I wish American Airlines put that interior on all their 737s, A321s, A319s, and A320s and have the premium economy seats in the first class section.
I like that it's not a huge plane.
I have seats 11J & 11K on the 787-800 from Dallas to Hawaii. Looks like extra legroom.
I love American Airlines it’s the best plane
Question so if you select the first row in premium economy are you expected to share one screen with the person beside you ?
Hi are there bathrooms at the back of the plane behind rows 30 and 31? thanks!
Hi Charlie I enjoy your videos very much I was just wondering why do you travel a so much? Is it. For Business reasons ?
Hello, and thank you!!! Recently, it’s been for visits to family & friends once and a while, as I’m away for school.
👀 Looking pretty good in American Airlines seating areas nice 🎥 video show.
Can you tell me if the seats with the wall behind them still recline? Seat guru states they "might have limited recline." Thanks for your response

So are you heading on a field trip to Honolulu in the next video? This is the only AA aircraft I have yet to fly on.
I wish! 🤪 it was a flight to Philadelphia. But Honolulu sounds nice!

Do the exit rows have a shared TV screen? I couldn't tell.

Well shit…..I’m gonna be flying in an AA 787 business class 5A in a few days. Did not know that seat did not have windows.
How was business class? I fly out in a few days
@@keyonnaaustin4094 it was actually really good. It actually did have one window. Trip report about it coming soon

Great review ! 👍🏼
can you recline the economy seat?
Pretty good info...but I am dizzy now.
Is this plane only used for international flights?
Loved it!
The seat 17 L is first class?
IMO these new main cabin seat should be put on the narrow body fleet. I would much rather prefer these over Project Oasis seats.
Would be cool to have the screens!
Cardboard seats
What I'm afraid of. Are they comfortable enough for a long haul flight?
2:44
Niceee
Why’d they pick such bland colors? Even UA has navy in first, purple in premium economy, and blue in main cabin. I guess AA goes for a more professional look?
In economy do the middle arm rests go up so that if you buy 2 seats and you have a big butt you can fit in the seats better? Asking for a friend...
Magufuli bought this plane for his country tañzania
😍😍😍👏👏👏👏

I wish they had just redesigned the 767. 3-3-3 is just awful

😅😅
It looks very bland and dark
You are panning the camera way too fast. It causes motion sickness for us sensitive people. 🤮
This plane is nothing compared to an airbus. Flying from the US to Asia would not be fun in this plane.
The music in the background is awful, NO to music
