  • With a lot of airlines retiring the Boeing 757, Delta and United are the two airlines that are still keeping them going. So are they nicer than the 737-900 or are they just another type of plane made by Boeing?
    Fun fact: The 757 I flew on was actually the last Boeing 757 ever built!!

    Love the 757, flown on both United and Deltas, its known as Boeing's Pocket Rocket fir its rapid rate of takeoff, great workhorse of a bird.

      It was a fast takeoff for sure! Those engines are really powerful when they spool up. Took off like a rocket! Thanks for watching

    Great trip report! The 757 had a surprisingly smooth takeoff and landing - impressive. I think it’s awesome that Richmond has regular 757 service on Delta to Atlanta many times per day! Looked like the flight was fairly full, am I right? Was it 100% full? If not, what would you say was the % filled? Again, awesome job! You need to fly more from RIC😊! ;)

      Thanks for watching! Yes, the 757 lands pretty smoothly. Probably, because there’s a dual landing gear in the back. So, there was a good amount of people on this flight, but I actually had an empty seat right beside me which was nice! I would say it was maybe 80% full. Richmond to Atlanta is a busy route. Which is probably why they use 757’s for it. I’m hoping to fly out of RIC more often. Thanks for watching!

      RIC Int'l Airport. "You can't get there from here."

    We flew from RIC-ATL on a 757 last week as the first leg on a Caribbean cruise. Leg room was tight, but good experience!

      Thank you for watching! The legroom varies on which seat you sit in. My seat on this flight was 35A that was right behind the bathroom. So the seat would not recline at all. So I had a little bit of a backache after the flight. Hope you all had a great trip!

    I flew a 757-300 from PHX to DTW in Jan 2024. While I love the 757 family, Delta has not spent the money to install live TV or offer free internet on the aircraft I flew. I fear they will never do this and the entire family is destined to be sold and converted to freighters in the very near future.

      I think they will still be in services a lot. You see a bunch of the flying around.

    Why did you go to Atlanta? I’ve also been on Delta Boeing 757 before I believe!

      My mom took me on a business trip so I could have some mom and son time with her! Thanks for watching!
