  • Welcome back to another trip report! This review will be covering my flight aboard United Airlines 737-700 from Newark to Orange County, California.
    I've flown on United's 737-700 many times before, but never on a flight of this length. In the past I've found the cabin's to be very tight and not all that comfortable. I sure hope I survive the roughly six hour journey between EWR and SNA!

      Oh yeah? I flew it another time and my shoes actually got stuck to the ground the floor was so bad. The old school Direct TV was nice back in the day, but it’s about time that it was replaced. Thanks for watching

    Very good trip report! I liked how you described your experience and explained your remarks. I am surprised you just had a snack during your flight. This is what you expect on a budget airline. As per the new livery, well it's ok.

    I’ve departed Newark many times, security is pretty hectic there more often than not. As for the 737, I’ve flown on one of United’s -800s and it was cramped just as badly with no IFE. I like the new livery too!

    • @nycflyertravel
      @nycflyertravel  4 года назад

      Thanks for the comment Brendan! Agreed, this 737 definitely needs a facelift and more than a snack should be handed out. These flights can be pretty expensive and a lot of full service carriers in Europe will give you a sandwich or something even for a one hour flight.

    Thank you for sharing this video. I live in Orange County and am planning my first, once in a lifetime vacation to New York City. This is literally the same plane, at the least same model, that will be flying me to NY.
    In John Wayne Airport, there is also an American Airlines flight that flies to JFK, an Airbus A321 Sharklet. Compared to that one, United Airlines offers seat selection for a smaller fee. However, after seeing your video, I might consider going with American Airlines; that 737 looks like an older plane whereas the A321 is a bit nicer with modern amenities.
    On the postive side, I am glad John Wayne offers direct flights to NYC. This means I do not have to travel to LAX and find a ride to take me there or take the train to LA Union Station and take a FlyAway bus to the airport. 😂

    • @nycflyertravel
      @nycflyertravel  2 года назад

      Thanks for watching. I don’t think the American A321 would be that much nicer than what United is offering. Although, it might be easier catching public transportation from JFK. Enjoy your trip!
