@YRGVixaHave you ever asked yourself if you’re also low cost? Maybe go roll the die on Malaysian, fact remains “US airlines” have 2 freak accident deaths since 2008… No hull losses, or other catastrophic events. Maybe your life sucks to the point where you no longer care if you exist the day after tomorrow. But don’t impose your will as a budgetary constraint on the rest of us who do want to continue living…
At first I was thinking the same when people bash airlines from the US, but as I compare to most other worldwide airlines, most airlines from the US are not the best especially with matching prices compared to other airlines that are supposed to be from the same class.
This dude really hates the U.S..while editing his videos on top of American-made operating systems and loading his content onto an American-made social platforms. Google account and IG account. The irony..lol
@@balkanfilms6740 compared to the Middle East and some Asian airlines yes…. But delta and the other big ones are honestly better than European airlines
East Coast to London is probably one of the toughest Business Class flights to take. There's very little time to sleep. You're basically eating breakfast at 2 AM New York time. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth the money / points over just slogging it out in Economy Class.
@@_Ricky maybe if you stop being racist and ignorant about other races/ countnries, then more airlines will let you fly for free to review their service.
What's your weird gripe with US carriers? Delta is one if not the best of all the US carriers, and a strong contender for the international carriers. Very weird biased review.
Why do people talk so negatively about American carriers, especially Delta? From what I've seen it seems like the majority of international airlines are raggedy and even dangerous sometimes.
It's not even worth flying business on the East Coast to Europe flights. Smarter to spend points on the West Coast-Europe flights, the 10-11 hour flight gives you 7 hours of sleep + 2 full meals and even snacks.
Some day maybe you’ll make it to where you can fly private jet charter services; the way people do who’ve actually made it for themselves in the US… Somehow however I doubt you ever will, and I suspect your animosity against the US stems from you not having that opportunity to fulfill the above because you’re from Canada…
You should try some of my favorite non-stop long-haul business/first routes: UA ORD > HKG (among the longest flights by time in the world), LH FRA > DEN, ET LAX > ADD.
Delta One is a highly enjoyable experience that I would recommend if you have the disposable cash. You are paying for better space, better service and for better food. I did not want to get off the plane, which could not be said for when I travel coach. While it does not hit the mark of Cathay or Emirates, I give Delta business very high ratings overall.
Nice quick video, Delta is a good product but I find them to cost more than American and United. The food is usually always good except for breakfast. Cool video as always.
Thanks for this video. My daughter and I are about to travel from NYC to Sydney on Delta One, and I happen to be in the same seat assignment as yours, while my daughter is across the aisle. It was fun to look at this together
Delta messed up my honeymoon I am in a two star hotel near JFK on my honeymoon. I am going to take them to small claims court just to screw them on the legal fees.
Ricky, i watched a few of your videos and was wondering how long it takes you to rack up the miles needed for some of your excursions. I understand there are sign up bonuses, you get points from regular purchases. How are you able to keep enough points to keep using them? Are they business/every day expenses that are charge to the card to keep the mile count high? How much does someone have to spend on cards to keep the miles high enough to use on these flights?
Continue to get signup bonuses, put every dollar of spend on the cards, and look out for cash deals too (for example this flight was only $900 USD round-trip). Obviously the more you play the game, the greater the rewards 👍🏼
Because they don't have to try very hard, so they don't. They know the cabins will always be full because elites and people chasing status will tolerate an inferior soft product. The reviewer keeps taking shots at the US, but Delta One will be far superior to anything Air Canada or British Airways is offering these days over the Atlantic.
@@Eyob797 American carriers have no issues with attracting passengers as they're primarily targeting NA passengers where they dominate the market. If they needed to attract passengers maybe we would see an improvement.
I mean the US invented the business model of luxury commercial flights. But it also is the country that had to prove the viability of commercial airlines through their early years and as such has had many accidents leading to hefty regulations, leading to repeated disinvestments by the government, leading to many huge airlines going under and the market being a shadow of its former self, leading to a generally pessimistic view of airlines and therefore an industry that has to nickel and dime to stay alive.
Love the videos Ricky. Just want to point out that while this is a newer Delta One cabin, I don't think it is Delta One Suites. The suites have a half wall with a closable sliding door.
JFK to Barcelona made Delta One worth it, because it's a slightly longer flight than to London, but only by about 90 minutes. If I'd flown directly from San Francisco to Barcelona, that would have been REALLY nice and worth the Delta One upgrade, BUT, Delta doesn't fly it, only Iberia does.
Was fortunate to be able to splurge on a Business Class upgrade with my recent trip to London and I thought it was worth it just for the experience alone. Upgrade price was ($630) for the suites.
Nice video!! I did one from DTW to PEK and it was enjoyable due to the flight was longer. I don’t understand why Delta doesn’t offer mattress pad? Their seat cushion is kinda hard, don’t you think so?
I'll play devil's advocate, the US carriers do pale compared to their Asian and many European counterparts. Depends on the service, but I think the US has made strides. That said, compared to Air Canada, they are very similar to the U.S. legacy carriers. Not trying to defend everything the U.S. airlines have done, but I've flown United from Chicago to Hong Kong when they had that route. It was surprisingly solid for both flights. Is it better than ANA nearby in Japan, or Cathay? I doubt it, but not a horror show compared to the past.
Shouldn't be too much of a surprise for an US airline. Delta is arguably the BEST North American Airline by Far!! Their standard of service is much better than American or United.
Did you booked with points or pay full price for business class? I was always curious bc business class is expensive- maybe someday when I can afford a business class for once:-)
You should try United Airlines Polaris. I did it on the 787-10 from EWR-SFO in 2019 and the service was to die for! Had my own suite and full meal service throughout the trip!!
Maybe someone should remind Ricky that the airplane was invented in the United States. If not for the US, he'd be reviewing the quality of butter from the ass of a horse.

The delta slander smh. Delta are all I fly. Absolutely love Delta. Well tbf I love all the sky team members.
yea can't agree more, even more so for the European market, Air France and especially KLM are great complimentary products to Delta's high quality.
Agreed, lol all this guy basically said was "I expected this to be shit because US airline"
Me too, it's the best!

First class on Delta has increased four times the rate.
lol this dude paid $900 for this flight, funny thing is, I tried finding a delta one suite and it’s now $9,000

man, you bashin the shit outa US airlines

Not jet blue but delta is great

For some reason I get the impression that this guy doesn't like American Airlines. I'm not sure why though, weird.
If you don’t except much of US flight, remember the US is the home of the first flight.
We do so many things right in the US, but luxury flights on a major carry isn't one of them. Never really understood why?
Because they don't have to try very hard, so they don't. They know the cabins will always be full because elites and people chasing status will tolerate an inferior soft product. The reviewer keeps taking shots at the US, but Delta One will be far superior to anything Air Canada or British Airways is offering these days over the Atlantic.
Capitalism and profits, the major players with great amenities on flights don’t value profits in the same light.
If American carriers improve their flight service they can attract more passengers. That’s one of the reason why people choose other airlines.
