This past Fall, I had to make a couple of trips to the Far East and this time around I secured a Premium Plus seat on UA! The airfare for Premium Plus was just only a few hundred dollars and so I had to seize the opportunity to try out Premium Plus. I was super excited about this flight and boy the overall experience did not disappoint. The food and service were great. Of course, UA IFE is great, one of the best out there. Really no complaints and all in all, a very comfortable experience.

I’ve been happy with my recent flights on United’s Premium Plus - EWR-MXP, EWR-BRU. I’m tall, so I need the extra legroom, and the service is good. Most importantly, the purple seats and amenity kit matched my sweater 🤣

Thank you for sharing your trip here. Yes, the 777s are very nice to fly on.😊

Thank you, happy to share these trip reports 🙂 Indeed the 777's especially the 300ERs are very nice.

I like 787 that offers 2-3-2 seat configuration.

This was a great trip report! Keep up the good work! (I just got off of United flights from my Philippines trip and I would love to see you fly to Manila from San Francisco with United!)

Thank you! Glad you liked it. 🙂 Hope to fly to Manila one day.

When I go international, I need that Polaris club at the airport and Bed to sleep in! That’s the way I flew SFO to Hong Kong

@MrTomcat104 Месяц назад

United is...ok I guess, it gets the job done. But I wish there were more US carriers flying to Hong Kong to give an alternative option, like when American or Delta also flew to Hong Kong. Great footage of a beautiful sunrise btw, good job.

Thank you, appreciate you watching the video. Actually prior to the pandemic, at one point SFO had 4 airlines to HKG and they were UA, CX, SQ and HX. (I believe AA and DL may have had flights from LAX or elsewhere but not SFO.) But with the 4 airlines, it was a bloodbath with HX losing out. SQ was my favorite and I took them often between SFO and HKG. However, since the pandemic, SQ for whatever reason has not returned service between these 2 cities. :(

Premium plus looks decent for a long flight like that. Dinner and breakfast look pretty good. I won't be so fortunate to experience that on my flight to Paris from SFO. I'll be at the back of the plane. Nice video.😮

@BayAreaTraveler Месяц назад

Thanks Jeff for watching! Yeah the Premium Plus experience went beyond my expectation. Hopefully your flight to Paris goes well even in the back of the plane, fingers crossed for a light load.

The food looks very tasty and delicious !!!! By any chance , do you know is it similar food in the Economy section?

@BayAreaTraveler Месяц назад

Indeed meal was great! The meals in Economy is smaller in portion in size. A good representation is my video from last Dec which is also from SFO to HKG in Economy and you can see the kind of meals served. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VvNvzzWJJ14.html

I had my worst flight experience last year from HK to SF on United.

@BayAreaTraveler Месяц назад

@@BBBZ123 Sorry to hear about that. What aspect of the flight made it your worst experience?

@BBBZ123 28 дней назад

@@BayAreaTraveler I traveled with my spouse on United from HK to Ft Myers. The itinerary was HK-SF-DC-FM. The first two legs We were put into both middle seat. The last leg we had a window and one middle seat. Even the ticket doesn’t allow us to choose seats, any common sense people wouldn’t do this. It was a cheap shot. We paid about $1000 one way each.

@BayAreaTraveler 28 дней назад

@@BBBZ123 It sounds like you purchased the Basic Economy Fare (or from a third party website) which does not allow you to choose seats and the airline will select seats for you. Not necessary the fault of United. That's why I never pick Basic Economy or go through a third party travel site even though airfare maybe substantially cheaper so that I can freely choose which seat.

@LLAGor1lla Месяц назад

If you are even slightly tall those foot rests are an annoyance from hell

@BayAreaTraveler Месяц назад

Agree! Can be very annoying and restricts leg room.

@angieharris8015 Месяц назад

I noticed how the 3 FA's didn't even bother to acknowledge the passenger (this videographer) as he was trying to walk through, with a simple greeting🙄. Typical AMERICAN-based FA's

@@anthonywalsh2164 actually I prefer to be on a noisy plane, it helps to drown out other noises. Planes that are quieter actually make it difficult to get rest when others are talking or babies are crying.

@anthonywalsh2164 this 777-300ER is one of the best and safest planes ever built. It’s only a few years old 🤦‍♂️

@anthonywalsh2164 Месяц назад

My hyperbole was obviously lost. It was more the design of the plane in terms of passenger comfort, especially regarding noise and the 3-4-3 layout in economy.

@BayAreaTraveler Месяц назад

@@anthonywalsh2164 It's not really the fault of Boeing nor a design issue regarding the 3-4-3 layout but rather the decision of the airlines. Originally, the 777-200 had a 2-5-2 or 3-3-3 seating config. I actually flew in 3-3-3 on EVA AIR back early 2010s. When airlines realized that they could cram another seat into the row to squeeze profitability, then it became a horrible passenger experience in Economy.
