Outstanding catches of Endeavor Air & Skywest’s CRJ700s & CRJ900s & Delta’s MD88s, MD90s, & B717-200s in the Great Lakes State. My all time top favorite aircrafts though this did bring tears to my eyes as the skies aren’t the same without the Mad Dogs.
Thank you for this. And....it's Summer 2024 and that "temporary" seat product hasn't changed. Delta has a lot of nerve charging the prices they do and providing a substandard product. Typical U.S. carrier :(
I went on a flight like this from new york to guyana n made this same stop back in 2016.I forgot the views of Jamaica until I found this video that refreshed my memory of the beautiful views.
amazing video man i know this was 7 years ago but if you still remember the location from where you were spotting for this do you mind telling me so i can go there sometime? it would mean the world to me.
Thank you...if I remember well, this was somewhere along Lindbergh Plaza (the road between the airport and the river) near to the post office side. I hope this helps
Flying this plane ATL - HNL in a few months. This video should win an award for taking the longest amount of time to convey the least amount of cabin feel of any ever shot. We get fifteen seconds of a pillow in D1 and we know there’s a flush button in the lav. Why in the world they let someone walk around on this empty plane to do something that useless is curious, to put it kindly.
Sorry you feel this way. The real purpose of this video was to show the difference between this cabin layout and the standard DL A350 layout. Some find this visual useful....nonetheless, thanks for your feedback.
I never knew that Air China used to fly into JFK before COVID until watching this video!! And I only just recently noticed that Air China is now flying the 747 back to JFK again. Too bad it comes in after 10pm at night to ever be captured by plane spotters at JFK. Excellent video!!👌👍👍Bad landing!!😁👎✈️🛬
Were those 2 Delta 777 planes that i saw parked at the gates?? If so that's awesome because I never knew that Delta flew 777's because I've never seen them!😄 Interesting. 🤔
Hi! The plane at gate 34 is a 777. The other two widebodies are 767-300ER planes. Delta had a fleet of 777-200LR jets that they retired during the pandemic.
@spotter3sixty The first 2 i knew were the 767's. I originally thought the 777 was a DreamLiner!😃 Oh really? Well that explains that. That's a shame though. They should bring them back. Thanks for the info. 🙂
I just flew Delta One class ATL > Dublin on this aircraft and I *hated* it. Nevermind that a technical issue with a headset delayed takeoff by three hours. Even if we had left on time, this would still have been an awful experience. Here are my observations: - There is no convenient, easily reachable storage for *anything.* There is a tiny, hard-to-reach slot in on the inside of your seat, under the console, where your outlet (mine didn’t work), USB and earphone jack are. The space is so small and awkwardly placed, and it’s just begging to have stuff fall out and under the seat while it’s in a recline position. There aren’t even cup holders anywhere so you have to store literally everything in this side pocket during taxi and takeoff - The footlocker is not particularly convenient or large and you can’t reach it while sitting or with your seatbelt on. It’s nice that bulkhead seats have a place to put stuff other than the overhead though. - The monitor is far away, and I didn’t care for the interface of the remote - clunky. - The video system had to be restarted and still kept freezing up to the point that I just gave up trying to watch anything. - There are no air jets to control airflow. Both my seat mate and I, who I did not know but thanks to the complete lack of privacy in this cabin is now my BFF, both woke up boiling hot in the middle of the night with no way to adjust airflow. - There is no privacy between the two seats. The partition comes out about 6 inches - totally useless. And the seat configuration means that if you’re sitting in the window seat and your seatmate is lying flat in the aisle seat, you’re climbing over them to get out. Why would anyone design it this way?! - There was no wifi available for the duration of the flight. - The water in the lavatory did not work. They provided packets of hand sanitizer but it’s hard to brush your teeth with that. - The food was meh at best and toxic at worst. Both my seat mate and I received spoiled melon on our breakfast fruit plate. It was reported to the attendant and supposedly documented. - I was in Seat 1A (not by choice) and every time someone flushed the toilet in the lavatory in front of my seat, my seat vibrated enough to wake me. - I did not find the lie-flat position to be comfortable at all. But the provided pillow was fantastic. Don’t get me wrong: it was (slightly) better than flying in the veal crates in coach but for what Delta charges for this cabin class, completely unacceptable. I’m astonished that anyone at Delta thought this cabin design was a good idea. I’ll be actively avoiding flights on this style of aircraft in the future.
I used Spirit round trip from ATL to DTW in September 2016 and I'm pretty sure the plane still had the old rainbow livery on it. That yellow is badass IMO. Makes me want to get on one.
Quick question: I see that the gate/jet bridge at Munich Airport Terminal 1 isn't attached to the terminal building. Do you wait in a separate area in the terminal and then take a bus to the remote gate during boarding?
