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.

Glad to see US domestic cabins getting better finally. I flew United's 737-900 last year and it was surprisingly good for a 30 inch pitch, comparable to Alaska's 31 inch pitch and better than Southwest's 31 inch pitch. Nice to see seatback IFE coming back too. Living in Denver, United is my usual go to airline these days

NEXT is a fitting name for United’s project. Just when you think improvements have hit steady state, there is a NEXT version that could hit avgeeks by surprise at any moment. When they started refurbishing planes, it marks the start of NEXT 2.0 with Type C ports in economy, bulkhead mounted IFEs in Economy Plus, and a redesigned seatback for first class for most planes. The 321NEO marks the start of NEXT 3.0 with a redesigned IFE screen

@EpicThe112 7 месяцев назад

Excellent trip report but for the mechanic side it'll be a nightmare for them due to the fact that A321neo has PW1000G and B737max is CFM Leap-X. The correct action for the management is CFM Leap-X that way a B737max Mechanic can repair A321neo due to the same engines. The only one to do that in the United States is AA because they went CFM Leap-X on A321neo to make it commonality with the B737max. In the case of DL PW1000G A321neo made sense for them because they have a huge Fleet of Bombardier CSeries now the A220-300/-100 which has PW1000G

@ITripReport 7 месяцев назад

Yeah I was very confused about that too, since before the power plant was announced I was certain they’d go CFM. Looking deeper into it (and this is based on what I read on forums) the PW has slightly higher thrust/longer maximum continuous thrust time (either or both), which would make sense for their Denver operations, and to operator transcon out of EWR. But aside from that, you’d think they’d be happier with the commonality with the CFM engines, right? Or at least hold some of a grudge with PW after the 777 grounding, unless they also managed to get a massive discount from them after it

@Blank00 7 месяцев назад

@@ITripReport It’s probably PW saying something like “if our engines cause problems again, we will pay you for whatever operational and reputational damage would be done”

@EpicThe112 7 месяцев назад

@ITripReport you are correct on that however UA is actually a long-time Pratt and Whitney customer just like Korean air in South Korea. If you want to look Airlines of Asia Pacific some of them have a preferred customer for engine types. example Cathay Pacific Thai Airways Qantas Air New Zealand goes RR GE Philippine Airlines Eva Air All Nippon Airways Asiana PW

@nickpapageorgio926 5 месяцев назад

Does the aisle "armrests" in first lower or otherwise adjust? I saw some stories saying they move for easy access, but they look fixed like a bulkhead seat.

@sainnt 4 месяца назад

I just flew on AA on the Max from BWI to MIA, and their catering was way better than this, but this seat is miles better, though the Max also has a nice, spacious cabin. It's interesting how many flight reviewers tout how great the Airspace cabins are, but never credit the design to Boeing on the Dreamliner, which is the granddaddy of 'Airspace' cabins.

@nickolliver3021 7 месяцев назад

@brianmichaels5112 7 месяцев назад

I thought your video really was petty on what you perceived as “flaws” . United is kicking and whipping Delts and Americans asses and is competing with international airliners. They have upped their service 10 fold. Their routes, domestic hubs and Connections and partnerships are just a league on their own. I flew Delta A321neo a couple months back and was so disappointed . Their service was slow and mediocre at best at least the sad crew I had. Does not mean I would not fly them again if I absolutely had to. Let’s face it all US airliners need to up their meal service in all Classes dramatically. But so far United in my opinion is far ahead of the other big 2. The Neo321 is amazing and so glad they have it. Can’t wait for the Max 10 and when they option for new 777x8 amd 9’s. United is my first choice , second choice and third choice. Currently 2023 going into 2024 the best airline flying !!! Period.
