Welcome to iTripReport’s flight reviews, which I focus on reviewing both the soft product and hard product of airlines around the globe. I strive to give you guys a first person perspective of different aspects of the flight. Including the ground service, onboard service, and those views that come with the flight. As you can see, I record quite a lot of the experience to make sure I record what you want to watch. As always, thank you so much for watching.

It's interesting how Virgin had all this stuff YEAARS before all the other airlines
(I think)
This is likely an unpopular opinion, but I actually like United the most among the US big 3. I’ve flown extensively with all 3, in all their cabins (albeit only on domestic flights, but I’ve flown the international business class hard product domestically on all 3), and I have elite status with all 3, and I’ve been the most consistently happy with United. I’m not sure if it’s just a pandemic or post-pandemic thing, but I’ve felt United has had the most attentive and friendly flight attendants and pilots and the most reasonable prices, without being significantly less comfortable than Delta. I’ve been underwhelmed with Delta actually – plenty of times where flight attendants will come through in the beginning of the flight and they’ll just disappear for the rest of the flight. Not to mention Delta is typically the most expensive of the big 3. And the proper Polaris seats are just as nice/comfy as the Delta One Suites on the A350 if you get a Polaris seat next to the window and not an aisle seat
Excellent trip report Emil!😸
Interesting, you find the Recaro seats of the A319 comfier than Meridians… being a jetBlue flyer for 10+ years, I flew their A220 recently and liked the Meridian seats in there better than the Pinnacle seats on the A321. However nothing beats the chunky Weber seats in jetBlue's A320 classic and E190, even though it has a 4-inch remote controlled IFE that had 3 looping movies and live TV only, those seats were like a sofa.
I recently flew on a United brand new (two month old) Boeing 737 MAX-9 from Las Vegas to Newark and it was just MAGNIFICENT! The cabin was very modern with IFE screens and I love that they are compatible with bluetooth headsets! Wish other airlines would offer that on their IFE screens but maybe they will in the future! However my only complaint with United as you said the snack service is terrible. Very small servings and not a wide selection. Not good especially on a long flight like I was on. Hopefully United is going in the right direction by updating their cabins and maybe next they'll improve their catering service!
The first class seats look similar to the ones on Delta's brand new a321neo
the virgin america reference 🙁
Glad they finally put screens. It is so annoying with having to use one's phone. Same for American. That's why I prefer Delta and JetBlue though they don't offer music. Forget catering. And their international catering was recently downgraded from a nice ice cream to a cookie.
After I heard about the A319 retrofits I was waiting for a video on one of them!
“Turn bag on side” means “don’t maximize storage space”
So how can you afford such travels?
For an A319 it’s too nice 😂
Was the other carrier Alaska or Southwest?
The fact u noticed the seatbelt sign 😂😂😂😂😂
United is officially better than American wow
Great video. Soon I will fly from DEN to CLT on UA A319 soon.
United's $8 wifi certainly isn't as good as free, but I do appreciate that it's actually fleet-wide on all domestic flights. Unlike Delta where yes getting a free wifi equipped plane is nice, but plenty of planes still don't have free wifi yet, like an A220 I caught last week, and wifi costs more on those. Some Delta widebodies are charging $30 for 4 hours of wifi and it sounds like Delta has no plans to lower those prices as they don't seem interested in offering free wifi on domestic widebodies; while I wish the wifi was free I do at least appreciate the price consistency on United (and Alaska / Southwest for that matter who both also charge $8).
I started with United 10 days out of high school, on June 16, 1997, when United received this plane. I remember everyone, including myself, excited about the new A319s coming to UA at that time. They were and still are way more comfortable than any 737 series. I miss my days at United until 2003! If it wasn’t for 9/11 I would’ve still been there. Now great to see UA trying to be the best like they were in the 1990s and early 2000s.
White text over light background’s yea thats readable
That united flight attendant endlessly playing with his hair had me dying haha
Can you fly from Hamburg, Germany?
As a newer viewer of the channel, I wonder why you dislike BNA so much? It’s my home airport and I work there now with AA. I know the north terminal (A and B gates) are EXTREMELY outdated but in the next 5-6 years the north end should be completely updated.
