Flown the Max 9 twice - business class, and like how the seats recline vs the older 737's. Lighting was good & best of ALL...we landed in the destination it was intended too✈ 👊respect👊
0:49 Personally, I think most of us really like the MAX, now that it is back we are able to enjoy it finally! It is better in terms of looks, efficiency, comfort, noise, and most importantly: Possibilities. The 737 has performed its duty for 53 years, and with the MAX it will continue to this for many years to come opening new possibilities for airlines around the world!
Agreed! The MAX is definitely a great plane and looks a lot better than it’s competitors. It was really comfortable to fly on and I hope people give it a chance. Thanks for watching!
Good to see them back, the 8's have been flying for ages without issue so should be fine. Need something different in the air, just need someone to build one for X-PLane 11 and I'll be happy with that.
Before the crashes we had 2 max 8 per day here in Barbados .. I enjoyed every single flight .. I was also on a 737/800 coming home and the guys next to me were the crew sent to bring back the max 8 grounded in Barbados
My co worker is a retired airline pilot. He never thought the Max would fly again. From what I can tell though he didn’t like Max from a pilot view but he KNOWS EXACTLY the problem that needed fixed for it to fly again. He was rated to fly 747s but normally flew 777s and 737s 3-5-21
No issues with the Max flew on it out of Houston before this weather came in. Every Boeing plane has had bad reputations before such as the 787 Dreamliner linthium battery issue and the 777 and its fuel line issue the 737 had the rudder issue and all of those planes are still flying even the MD80s and the Dc10s and 11s are still flying not commercially so the hysteria/ bad rep of the max will disappear and hope to see the Max gain a new reputation and a future of growing success
Those overhead bins are more claustrophobic though. I don’t think it’s worth a trade off for me personally. Obviously for the airline it makes complete sense.
I’m glad to see the 737Max back in the air again. I’ve absolutely no issue with flying on a Max myself. Hopefully airlines in Europe, will start introducing these Back into service In the next couple of weeks, as COVID restrictions begin be eased! ✈️
First time on your channel--I've viewed 3 other avgeek accounts of this flight,yours is the only one(so far!) posted from FC and on the left side of the aircraft. No mention made of UA's full drink service,something other US carriers refuse to do--did you obtain their famed Stroopwafel and properly heat it before consuming? Did you interact with other enthusiasts during the flight?
After hearing this in the video, I imagined a preflight briefing between captain and crews. "Team, our goal for today is not to beat up any passengers, okay?". Good video.
I always thought we did not get the whole story on that sorry event. The victim, respectfully in my opinion, did not behave in a manner befitting a doctor. I feel there are unanswered questions and missing elements of the saga.
“We” NEVER beat up anybody ! The airport police did that - let’s get things straight ! If you wanted someone removed from YOUR property and you called the police to do it is that on YOU if THEY were rough ?????
Boeing's main enemy is the news at this point. After ET302, the press has been blaming Boeing for everything or exaggerating incidents that happen on Boeing planes (engine issues, warning lights, etc.)
@@Joseph-xj4ex If airbus were to offer a better plane than Boeing than, Boeing would loose lots of money. So, Boeing rushed the 737 Max to compete with airbuses A320neo. Rushing the 737 Maxes design was a huge mistake and it costed lots of lives.
What Boeing did with shortcuts on the Max was horrible. With that said, the Max may now be the safest plane in the air after all of the scrutiny and improvements made after the deadly crashes. People will forget. The DC10 had a infamous past too and that didn’t stop people from getting on board.
I'd have no issues flying on any of the Max aircraft. I've just never cared for the looks of the 737. When I was a kid, I remember asking my Dad why the 737-200 we were boarding on Western Airlines was so ugly. The rest of Boeing's aircraft have such sexy lines. And I've been on everything 707 - 777. (787 is still on my list.) But I'd get on a Max in a heartbeat if that's what I was scheduled to fly. (I just think they all look like that car that Homer Simpson designed.)
Anyone who has ever flown or flown a 737Max can thank God that you have not had a death flight!We also hope that from now on MAX aircraft will have no bad news and return to the sky safely。 Good job!I love your video!
After watching that video I don’t have much to say. I can just comment the same thing as always: Really well done video and as it’s entertaining you deserve more views and subscribers. ✈️Have a good week!
That was a good video. I have to admit, though, that I'm still reluctant to get on a max. Maybe when they've been around for a while without problems, I'll feel more at ease. Right now, I'm avoiding them.
Good job! There’s no question that Boeing cocked-up the whole Max software-design and training program. But it’s ultimately a solid airplane, and I look forward to flying in it.
Great vid ive allways wanted to fly the max but i cant because im in the uk and there r no flights so thanks for making this vid so i can see what it it like
@@mattthompson8487 yeah I’m contemplating that right now. I’m also on the Alaska Air inaugural in a few weeks. It’s just a lot of flying in a short amount of time that’s got me a little hesitant.
First of all, great video. It doesn’t surprise me that United didn’t say anything to you about this flight. In my 50+ years I’ve never had a positive experience with United. Other than getting printed timetables mailed to me for free back in the 1980’s until they got rid of that perk before all the other legacy carriers did.
Yeah, I really hated flying with United until recently. The staff were always so rude and they took the fun out of flying, but they have definitely turned things around. Thanks for the comment!
A part of me is happy that this aircraft is getting back in the air and we can begin moving on from this nightmare. It is undeniably a beautiful plane. I am also pleased to see the airlines being so accommodating about people who want to switch planes and such. Logic also tells me the MAX’s are now very safe planes to fly on. Boeing knows it’s do or die with the MAX now so they MUST do the right thing this time or face the prospect of their demise. I am also glad that United and some other airlines DID NOT make a big pomp and circumstance about this return to service flight. A mention by the captain may be warranted, but a big gate party or something else would be in poor taste in my opinion. Let’s not forget the hundreds of people who are part of the reason this plane was grounded in the first place. The MAX crisis will always be an ugly scar on the Boeing company, one I don’t believe will ever fade completely. I can only hope this crisis was the wake up call they needed to stop being a company that fosters the type of greed and shady practices that put them in this position
so basically first class on united is crap. it seems to me that only delta has a decent first class. i will be flying this plane and airline tomorrow and now i am not looking forward to it. so far i have wrote off American and now United. It just bs that we pay for first class, but it's not real first class.
The Max is merely the same old same old 65-year-old, with new furniture and slightly better m/p/g. The heady days of American innovation are not on display here.
Nice video! I was able to follow this flight in real time, in part because of the lady in Seat 4D (you’ve shown glimpses of her on this video) who is an Instagrammer (@hayitskay97) and a United crew member.
I will never fly on a Max, but I really hope for no more crashes. It’s a shame the FAA and Boeing’s underhandedness killed so many people and there was basically zero repercussions other than a stock price drop and the CEO being sent away with $60 million. After seeing how much they tried to bury in this scandal, I can only imagine what skeletons are hiding in Boeing’s other plane’s closets.
Yes I'm happy to see the 737 MAX return with another airline, at least a good one that flies it safely :) It's nice to see that in the real world people aren't really concerned about flying on one. I guess I'm also one of the few that actually liked the off-color jokes in the last video. In my experience some people nowadays are just soo oversensitive, oh well.

My son was on this flight yesterday ❤️
How do you like flying the MAX?
Just reading your convos now! 😅
You said that fluid ruined your takeoff footage - I think it made it incredibly beautiful!
Glad to hear that someone liked it! Thanks for watching
Another great trip report 👏🏼
👍🏻✈️
Flown the Max 9 twice - business class, and like how the seats recline vs the older 737's. Lighting was good & best of ALL...we landed in the destination it was intended too✈ 👊respect👊
This United Livery is honestly one of my favs !!
Yeah, their new livery has really grown on me.
UA + WN!!!
I would have no problem flying on the 737 max again. It has been the most scrutinized aircraft in the industry in a long time.
Agreed! Thanks for watching Douglas.

I would easily get back on the max , ... Max had misbehaved but is good to go now and I feel more than safe getting back on it
Thanks for the comment, Andre 👍🏻
Nice video keep IT UP Slowly gaining back confidence in this plain.
Thanks for watching!
I've seen that tornado effect myself a few years ago. Neat to see it recorded.
Yeah, it was really cool. Thanks for watching
I love this video will be on the 737 max in a week I'm so excited 😁
Great to hear! Thanks for watching Mica.
Excellent video! I'm glad to see the 737 MAX back on the sky
Thanks for watching!
I flew EWR -> DEN on this plane and it was the smoothest plane ride i’ve ever taken. 10/10 all around, quiet as well!
Fantastic upload! Great report and beautiful engine shots. Maybe leave the takeoff as is and folks can just tap forward if they dont want to see it.
Thanks for the feedback. I’m thinking about adding more unedited footage. Have a good week!
Yes! Please don't edit take-off or landing. Great video otherwise!
@@needledrop421 thanks for the feedback. I’m thinking about doing separate videos for takeoff/landing or just setting up a separate channel.

safest plane in the air today by far....would not hesitate a minute to fly on one.....

Thank you 🙏
after 2crashes boeing 737 max came back to service yay i missed the max for 2 years
Boarding should always be back to front. It makes way more sense and doesn't hold people up
Yeah, it makes more sense
I have family in Denver and I'm going through Houston on my way to Cancun from Portland and going through Denver on the way back!!
Enjoy your flights ✈️

I was never worried or scared of the max 9. It was the max 8 I was always scared of.
Love your videos! Keep it up!!!
Thanks Talha!
Really nice I’m going to and United airlines in July 👍🏻👌🏻
Amazing flight report! Great style!
Thank you 🙏
1. Do you believe the MAX is a safe plane to fly on, why or why not? Going to be flying to CLE on Southwest...may be on MAX
No crashes since its reintroduction, so there’s no doubting this is a safe plane. It was just a matter of training
Beautiful plane!
It is!
love the 737 max
👍🏻
Max will be fine hope Boeing learned it's lesson.
I’ll be flying on an American MAX 8 in March. Looking forward to it!
Awesome 👏
How’s comfort/noise levels compared the previous -800s? Nice video btw
Thanks for watching! I actually flew on the 800 right after this flight and the MAX flight as much quieter and more comfortable.

What is the seat recline like in the 737 max 9?
for those who flew in MAX 9 first class, is it better to take row 1 or behind ?
DIA is a very pretty airport
to stream, would we have to purchase wifi like gogo?
United provides free entertainment on their app.
Great video 👍🏽✨

"United customer service has come a long way from when they were literally beating up their passengers".

That wasn’t United but a contractor flying as United Express.

Save your money and buy a bottle of champagne in Houston.
The Max is a good aircraft..... no crashes in the USA...... somebody knows how to fly it...... I would fly it in the US anytime.....

No monitors for movies 😔😔
Why does no one mention those fans in the train tunnel at denver I've always wondered why there are tons of random metal fans on the wall.
Yeah I noticed those. I just figured they were some sort of art 🤷🏻♂️
Great video

Yeah, I can understand why they wanted to keep it low key, but as an AvGeek, it would have been cool if there was a little more recognition.
Nothing says public health like letting first class do whatever they want.

so basically first class on united is crap. it seems to me that only delta has a decent first class. i will be flying this plane and airline tomorrow and now i am not looking forward to it. so far i have wrote off American and now United. It just bs that we pay for first class, but it's not real first class.
Not noise down crash?
Well nah.
The Max is merely the same old same old 65-year-old, with new furniture and slightly better m/p/g. The heady days of American innovation are not on display here.
54, not 65.
"...underground tunnels?"
Look it up!
Was this paid for by Boeing or United? It sounded like it.
Yes, the part where I talk about United beating up their own customers was a dead giveaway...

That's first class? Looks cheap but probably overpriced
First class doesn't even have a tv screen, what a joke
