    I flew back from Delhi to EWR on a UA 787 for 16 hrs, and 787s are really comfortable long haulers. So much better than the 777-300ERs that UA usually uses in this route.

  • @collinparsons3363
    @collinparsons3363 Před rokem +2

    United did have a dedicated fleet of 757s for their premium transcon routes, but they were retired and replaced with various internationally configured aircraft. I think it makes more sense to just use internationally configured aircraft, since it provides more flexibility, and means fewer seating configurations in the fleet. Also, since they have far higher capacity than narrowbodies, they can also operate fewer flights and carry the same number of passengers, freeing up slots for other flights. I've never flown on a 787 or any widebody for that matter, but if I need to get to California from the east coast, I'll definitely try to take a flight operated by one. I like the idea of the dimmable windows. I always pick the window seat so I can watch takeoff and landing, and see what I'm flying over. With the dimmable windows, it's possible to still see out, while not disturbing my seatmates with the glare. However, I would not be happy if the crew locked all the windows to their dimmest setting. They're not supposed to do it on United, but it still happens sometimes.

  • @TheLewistownTrainspotter8102

    2:30 There's one less row of Polaris seats on the -10 compared to the shorter 787-9. That may have a lot to do with how the galleys are located differently. The -10 has a galley at the back of the Polaris cabin to separate it from Premium Plus, while the -9 has a galley between rows 8 and 9, resulting in there being a second Polaris section over the wings.

    • @ITripReport
      @ITripReport  Před rokem

      on the dash 10 they wanted to fit all the polaris cabin in between the first and second set of doors, meanwhile on the dash 9 since they wanted to make it lighter in order to take advantage of its range they went past the second door.

    Yes I did fly on United’s 787 Dreamliner in economy. Twice actually, both were transatlantic flights on the -9 (DEN-FRA and LHR-DEN). Interestingly, they had different seats. The first flight was on an older Dreamliner with the same seats seen on their 767s, but the second flight on a 1 year old plane had the newer “Aspire” seats seen on the 787-10 in this video. I agree with you that United is nothing special but not bad either. I love the Dreamliner a lot.

    • @ITripReport
      @ITripReport  Před rokem

      Yup, aspire seats are on all 78X, and post 2020 789s, they just chose not to retrofit them on older planes, which I’m fine with since those are a lot more comfortable, not sure about legroom on those however

    • @K4Ediamond
      @K4Ediamond Před rokem

      @@ITripReport In my opinion, the older ones are a bit more comfortable than the aspires. Mostly because they have larger armrests and a bit more cushioning. But the aspire seats have more storage space and a cup grove on their tray tables too.

    I don’t understand these airlines in the US. Providing a sandwich will hardly cost them $3-$4 or even less (buying in bulk for hundreds of thousands passengers), but they still choose to give a cookie and drink on a 4+ hour flight. Shameful. But they know ppl will keep travelling so they don’t care

      You’d think the airlines would sell a larger selection of meals to give them more ancillary revenue like European airlines do. But especially with tight connections and airport delays, you could be going up to 8 hours without food on a given travel day, even if your flights aren’t too long

      I have rarely heard anything genuinely positive over the last 10 years I’ve been flying. They seem to be better now, but they always find a way to make it into the news with horrible things. Every time someone is thrown off a flight, or a flight attendant has to physically restrain a passenger it happens on a United flight. Delta and American are close enough in terms of product that I can’t fathom chancing a horrid experience on a United flight.
