In the future, I highly recommend sitting on a left-side window seat as opposed to the right when arriving at EWR. If you're arriving on 22L, you will get a great shot of New York City/Jersey City. Via 4R, you can get a shot of New Brunswick and Rutgers University.
@@anakinskywalker8327 Nah, speak for yourself. United is way better. Besides, I don't fly shit airlines like deltuh that bust unions and spend millions of dollars to spread anti-labor propaganda.
So amazing that you're sitting in Seat 50L in this flight, since I have a fight on the SAME plane that I'll be sitting in the EXACT same seat! Gives me GREAT perspective. My first flight on a Dreamliner too!
Nice that they have a good selection on the IFE. However when I fly I look for seat comfort, meal service and the reputation or experience I have had with that airline's Flight Attendants. That pretty much puts United and all other US flagged airlines at the bottom of my list. I have had over the years, horrendous cabin service on United especially. I honestly believe that being a former correctional officer is a prerequisite for being a United FA! Give me any Asian airline always for exceptional cabin service and fantastic meals even in Economy Class! Thanks for your comprehensive review. As always, take care and Happy Travels!
Great take off vision despite the rain ! No Pretzels...typical United cost cutting ! Views of the wings on the aircraft are brilliant ! Have flown United internationally over the years and mostly in Business Class and have found them "ok". They just seem to miss what the Asian carriers do when it comes to food and service . Nice review and well done!!
Thank you so much for taking us on this flight.😊 👍 👍 My two girls and I will be flying to America for the first time this year and it's the very first flight for my girls. And...it's also with United on the Boeing 787-10 (economy). And we are sooooo exited.😊😊😊 many greetings from Germany
i went on a united domestic flight and the seats literally just had a plastic phone holder and that was the entertainment there wasn't any wifi on that flight so i couldn't even stream movies off their website
787s are used for domestic flights all the time, while still revenue flights, they use them to get the plane to a city to fly internationally. Like 787 domestic from dallas to chicago, then chicago to say london
Great video, beautiful airplane, but damn, those meal offerings were stingy. I watched a trip report of economy on Ethiopian Airlines and they did two full hot meal services on a seven hour flight.
Its sad that the biggest airlines are actually the cheapest bastards out there... especially USA airlines, I have heard a lot of bad things about them.
Dejan Jordan That’s what happens when air travel is viewed as utilitarian. Yes, it is viewed as such, thanks to the bad combination of long distances and underwhelming amounts of paid vacation. The former is something that won’t change. The latter could change, if companies realized that they don’t need all their employees to be at work for 8 hours a day, 5-6 days a week.
Nice! good to see United Airlines today compared to when i flew them 10 years ago in 2009, a lot has changed with them ahh (Who remembers the old united logo hahah) good video!
i was yesterday on a united 787-9 flight from SFO to AMS and is was a great flight with exellent legroom and food. and most suprisingly, the crew was very nice.(btw you said that the pack of pretzels is no more but i can confim that is it still served. at least on my flight xd)
@@thetravelmanusa360 no bc i was yesterday on ua 968 from sfo to ams and thats a 10 hour flight on a 787-9 and we were given pretzels at the first round of drinks.
Yes US airlines are not always known for the best service and best stuff like Emirates and Etihad, but they have their strengths, they’re not that bad. I flew American Airlines from Chicago (ORD) to London (LHR) and the crew was pretty nice. I also flew from Dublin (DUB) to Chicago (ORD) and the crew were amazing. My only complaint is that the food was quite small and limited in choices
If you are go to EWR, you should try to go to New Brunswick or Princeton... both accessible by public transit. There is so much more to NJ than just being in between NYC and Philadelphia!
Another great report. Too many vloggers ignore Economy Class, you're forging a new path! I was a bit in and out of this but I didn't see any beer, wine or spirits. Did I miss something or is this another reason to avoid United on international flights? Even the tiny pack of four micro pretzels is gone! Nickel-and-diming can only go so far before more customers fly east to go west! And so they should.
Awesome trip report like always! However after watching this I hope Emirates will still opt to keep their order for the 787-10s. If they do, hope you guys can fly on them!
4:52 I definitely agree on the IFE. I flew IAH to NRT on United back in March and the IFE selection was awesome. Flew ANA from NRT IAD on the way back and their IFE selection was extremely sparse. Was thoroughly disappointed.
Ill be back in Barcelona in roughly two months for a three week cruise with one week around the Med and then back to Tampa. I am flying in from SFO and spend a few days in Barcelona a beautiful city.
It does seem like their meal service is worse now than a year ago when I flew with them. Although that was from LHR-SFO, so the food would be more substantial. However the IFE was better on this flight, obviously the plane we flew on was a Boeing 777, not the 787-10.
@@Jack3md But doesn't UA let the caterer know the specs of the meals they serve to passengers? The caterers only prepare what UA contracts them to prepare, and those portions are definitely on the smaller side.
I think the reason why the IFE screen wasn’t working on your United’s 787-10 transcontinental flight is because the airplane back then was brand new and everything wasn’t set up yet on the IFE!
To me those are very redundant. When I was on my first trip to the US, I got SSSS printed on my boarding pass as well. The secondary security screening is just searching through your bag, a small metal scan ur body and your bag, and some passengers go through body search.
I love economy for the food. Any meal they serve i will eat. Im not personally a huge business class fan when it comes to their food. I just prefer economy meals
You didn't show us the legroom, so Il assume it was Economy Standard, and I'll also assume they gave you earbuds. The IFE and the food looked pretty good, and you had all the outlets you needed. I'm glad that United did a good job on this flight - even if they did leave out the pretzels.
Simply Aviation, United should domestically fly their 787-8 and 787-9 dreamliners since passengers are practicing social distancing. United should fly their 787-10 dreamliners internationally.
How do you deal with aeroplane ear? I’ve had it so bad this time london Heathrow to Atlanta to Chicago. I’m flying back on Sunday not looking forward to it as my ears are still popping. Feel like I’ve done everything!
Very impressed with the new hard cabin product. Sleek and modern design.
Nice! Will fly them from Brussels to Newark in just 2 weeks!

The right side of the plane is nice as well on runway 22L because you see downtown Newark and Red Bull Arena on the landing approach
I’m so happy you’re flying US carriers. Great job man :) you’re a huge inspiration to us smaller youtubers.
The weather as you were leaving reminded me of the song from "My Fair Lady", "The rain in Spain."

What the heck
Salieri Amadeus this is not catalonia its rome
The rain in Spain falls mostly on the plane
That cabin is awesome omgg
wow if only EVERY OTHER UNITED FLIGHT IN EXISTENCE was this good...
Their international product is quite consistent, can’t say the same about domestic though
Beautiful plane. I always have a good experience on United, especially internationally. Can't say that about delta.
Nah delta is way better , even he says so in his video where he reviewed delta
@@anakinskywalker8327 Nah, speak for yourself. United is way better. Besides, I don't fly shit airlines like deltuh that bust unions and spend millions of dollars to spread anti-labor propaganda.

Other way around for me
@@yessir50 Totally agree. United is far superior than delta and their international network is unsurpassed.
make a tripreport from Sao Paulo to Tel Aviv in LATAM

The flight that you haven't tried and must try is Nepal Airlines A330!
Why do I feel like United’s meal portions are considerably smaller than most of the other airlines in the world
Check out Etihad thats smol.
Yeah Eithad went realy bare minimum with food,seen it from a lot of trip reports...
They aren't United's meals, they are prepared in the city you fly out of, like Barcelona, then they hand them off to United when boarding.
@@Jack3md But doesn't UA let the caterer know the specs of the meals they serve to passengers? The caterers only prepare what UA contracts them to prepare, and those portions are definitely on the smaller side.

Of course the IFEs are working again after the airlines addressed passengers' fear of the inactive seatback cameras
