That's a confident man who can wear a white top and eat tomato soup without dropping any on the shirt. A great video a usual and I'd have to say that for me Delta provided the best first class experience in this video.
Agree, I was thinking the same thing, that's why I always travelled in black! Back in my flying days... and while flying in the US, I thought Delta was great... plus I remember a Pan Am (yes, I'm old) flight from my hometown, Sydney to LA, while the plane was old, the inflight service was also great. All my first class flights have been with Cathay Pacific. 🦘
Quick note from a frequent Alaska first class flyer - Seattle has a couple of Alaska lounges and they are very nice. Also, Alaska asks passengers to go online and pick out their meals in advance a couple days before the flight, hence no menu - the options are listed online. They do keep meals onboard for those who didn't choose online. The fruit and cheese box makes an excellent light meal and is one of the most popular choices - there's never a guarantee there will be one on the flight, so order it online..
It's a shame that Alaska no longer includes lounge access when you buy a first-class ticket. However, if you don't need a lie-flat seat then their first-class is a bargain.
@@VisitorsWelcome In fairness, they do offer it for first class, but only when at least one segment on that day and itinerary are at least 2,000 miles.
@@brrrrr9999Why does Alaska not offer lay flat even on the Business/First Class of international flights? Hawaiian’s got both lay flat seats and lounges. Alaska has lounges and no lay flat seat. I hope the proposed merger does not happen and if it does happen, I hope Alaska leaves the lay flat seats of Hawaiian alone.
@@TrumponSoaksUpRedAlaska doesn’t have any long haul aircraft in their core fleet-primarily Boeing 737s. The plan is to use Hawaiian’s fleet of wide body aircraft for Asia (mix of Boeing and airbus). They have the virgin Atlantic fleet for Europe. For Hawaiian they are merging all the miles and services (ie you can use the Alaska lounges which are great and Alaska miles on Hawaiian flights, etc)
It's for safety reasons. If someone decides to smoke and break the rules they would need a place to dispose the cigarette butt safely. Throwing it in the regular trashbin could cause a fire.
My husband and I love your show! You are an excellent host, guide, videographer, and editor. PS - tip for United, if you fly them again, ask for a mattress pad to cover your lay-down seat. It adds a lot more comfort and protects you from lying directly on the seat.
Yes, he flew on a number of domestic routes but there is no excuse not to offer polished service and clean seats. People need to stop making up excuses for these water-washed US Airlines.
@@ticoguy05 where? It's impossible to clean a widebody that fast. Narrow bodies a quick turn is at least 10 minutes. You aren't gonna rush them any faster 😂
@@ticoguy05 and you're taking to a current airline employee of 10 years 😂 Management are absolute morons and it doesn't matter what they say Tf they gonna do fire a third party employee?
The second I saw United I shivered, to the surprise of nobody it...well...didn't, deliver. But the near 20m of shade thrown at them afterwards? That was awesome I was chuckling for the rest of the video! xD
My wife, daughter, and I just came back from a trip. We went from San Antonio TX to Dallas TX, then to Rome. We flew in a Boeing 777-200 and sat in the Premium Economy section. Thank God for those seats. They were big enough to stretch out a bit and they saved our rears on the 13-hour flight. We flew on American Airlines. The food was terrible, but the stewardesses were decent. We had a wonderful time and a safe journey, and I thank God for that.
HNL is a real marvel! I remember landing one Sunday evening years ago and being greeted by the scent of proper tropical vegetation in, yes, a natural park. Unforgettable!
if it weren't a safety cocern, it would be really nice if you could just go to airports like HNL just to walk around, eat, shop and enjoy the environment.
Delta will always be my heros. When I got injured in Berlin,coming home they gave me a dedicated attendant and wheel chair as soon as I got to the airport. A van came for me as well to take me there. He brought me drinks and food,whatever I needed. When it was time for me to take my flight he rolled me onto my plane and into my seat. On board the attendants were quite attentive and when I got to Phoenix,my home,the concierge got me a van and since my back was injured they had me take the wheel chair with the van. Delta is the best. Forever
Singapore airlines is prolly my favorite due to that fact the service is outstanding and the first-class seats are super comfy, not to mention the menu selections is top notch
If you're paying those sort of prices you need to get matching service (thinking no menu, sitting next to someone, unclean or untidy seat suite, being barked at by staff) Great video, tfs 🛫🛬✈️🛩💺🧳
Wills my only issue is Delta was an international flight vs. all others domestic so for comparison sake taking DL to say NYC/BOS or ATL would have been better. But I get it given where you live.
Agreed, the long-haul international routes have better food/service/amenities (since they have to compete with international airlines) and flight crew with more experience.
Delta domestic first class is quite nice, though you only get lounge access and private suites on coast to coast flights. Definitely avoid basic economy - that's what pushed me to pay the $$$$ for DFC.
I'm happy to see you blurred all the passengers face. People pay considerable money for privacy in first class and happy you respect that. Great video as well!
Is it just me or has no one else realized how much respect towards the staff this man puts in such as not recording them and generally being all around just a chill guy ❤
Next I’d be interested to find out about first class on Canadian airlines! I have my favourite, but there are smaller airlines in Canada that deserve honest reviews by well traveled bloggers.
Canadian Airlines have what I would call Business class only...nothing really "First Class". I fly a fair bit for work, probabaly not as much as Trek. My take.. Air Canada is the best, ya ya, everyone in Canada likes to complain about the major carrier, but their product overall is good, I have flown other airlines in US and around the world and AC's domestic business class is a good product. Internationally though AC's Business class is middle of the pack.... Little note.. Air Canada does have it's discount airline, Rouge, and at times Air Canada will switch their mainline flight and put you on a Rouge flight. Rouge has a business class product too, it is substandard to Air Canada's mainline business class. We even have a saying for when Air Canada switchs you to a Rouge flight last minute..."you have been Rouged". WestJet does have a business class that is good with service but choices of food selection is limited and very few lounges to be had. Porter Airlines, a fairly new Airline is Canada, has a business class, it is a little better than WestJet, good service but again very few lounges across Canada. Overall for flight selection and availability, AC comes out slightly ahead. As a buisnes traveller who visits lounges often, Air Canada has a lounge in pretty much all the province's major cities. Although the Lounges in YHZ, YUL, AND YYZ domestic have a lot to be desired....the Halifax lounge was outdated 15 years ago, Toronto's lounge is boring/outdated and you have a great view of the airports roof ventilation systems and very little view of the runways, if you stand up..if you are sitting forget seeing a plane. Montreal's domestic lounge has nice view of the airplanes and the ramp but it is too small and always cramped, terrible layout but I will say this, the people who work in the Toronto and Montreal lounge do a good job or trying to keep the place clean, dishes removed promptly. My hats off to all lounge staff as I see some real assholes in lounges who think that because they are in a lounge they are "special". Never once have I considered myself special, as I am lucky to travel for business often and visit lounges and many beautiful places in North America. If I ever do start feeling "special" I just think of my dad, who at the age of 12 had to get a job to support his family, Dad deliver milk by horse back in the 40's, never heard my Dad complain once in my life. Blessed to have had such a great Dad and what I have and do!
@@ie6370 I liked hearing your persepctive regarding your fathers influence, my dad also worked since he was a child. We certainly have so many luxuries today and yet can still be so dissatisfied with them. 🌟
sadly these planes are cleaned no better than a movie theatre between showings. I thought covid would have changed things. I would be taking wipes and sanitiser with me after touching anything
Out of the 7 airlines with 6 requiring more attention to cleaning, Delta was by far the best and ticked more boxes then the other's. BUT I believe the International airlines surpass the U.S. airlines by far...thank you for sharing.
Would absolutely love to see All-Inclusive Resort videos! Love your content and all you post! Watching now; sorry to my family that dinner will be slightly later than usual.😂
Well, of course you preferred Delta. You're comparing apples and oranges. You should have flown all international flights or all domestic flights. It's not really fair to compare a long-haul, ( 10 hour ) international flight to all others being domestic and less than six hours. Completely different menu, amenities, etc.
14:26 thank god I'm not the only person with that passport fading issue. I often worry that the lost detailing would somehow cause me to not get through passport control in countries I visit, but seeing that you have it also & you being far more travelled than me does give me some relief :)
Not surprised with united. I flew with them 6 times is February and didn’t have great experience. Told the flight attendant my partner had a nut allergy and in response she said “what does that mean, what do you want me to do about it” I was taken aback with this. Such a shame as we decided to upgrade for our long flight home
As noted by others, comparing U.S. "First" Class domestic cabins to your experience in Delta One (international Business Class) isn't a fair comparison. There is a difference between domestic and international products of all U.S. carriers, so you could have theoretically flow SFO-LHR in Polaris and could have had a better experience than flying SFO-MSP on DL. Great job otherwise and keep 'em coming. 😀
We should have known better listening to his accent knowing that he isn’t based in the US. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. Why would anyone do a review comparing domestic vs international for the US?? Those of us based in North America know that’s the defining difference. Over in Europe, their international business flights do not have lay flat beds they just leave one empty seat beside you it is just hilarious. Thanks for the heads up. I won’t waste my time watching this video.
As a Chicagoan, I was happy to see you in my city, but it killed me that you had to get off a long flight in HAWAII and go straight to another flight! Wow! I think a week's vacation in between could have been budgeted, haha
We are United Plus members and fly business class on overseas flight. So far, we have been pretty happy. But it is great to see that there are better accommodations. The best experience was on Air New Zealand. But anything out of San Francisco with the Pretzel rolls is great.
I understand that some people hate united, but it all depends on how lucky you are on which flight crew you get, also every flight I’ve been on with united I have had a great experience with them!
American Airlines usually do a preflight drink but I think because you were on a night flight they didn’t do it. Great video love All the different camera angles
My dad was Army, and we flew back from Germany in 1969. I remember the stewardesses were very friendly. They even gave us neat little toys to play with. There was smoking allowed on the plane, but I don’t recall it bothering us.
Your experience with United staff is almost always my own experience as well. I usually fly United because it's the cheapest and that's my main concern right now.
Really liked the video (as always). I do think that comparing Delta One to the domestic first class products of the other airlines is not quite fare, though. It would’ve been more fair to compare maybe a domestic Delta first class seat to the east coast. Also, you have to fly delta one (or have the right credit card) to get into the Sky Club; even international delta first class (e.g., SEA to Mexico) by itself doesn’t get you in. ☹️
Delta has no international First. The highest class international for Delta is Business and an international long haul Business gets you to Delta One’s super premium lounge Delta One lounge in JFK.
As I have discovered, drinks and pre departure service on AA first class is at crew discretion. Also most lounges are aging and limiting hours...so if an early flight or late arrival you'll have to join the general public offerings. Most Delta must have the amex companion card to enter. First class is not very classy any longer. Fun trip you had though.
Delta getting a leg up here with the only international flight. Not apples v apples. I can say I had a great flight with United from Newark to Amsterdam a few months ago on a 777-200. Even though an older aircraft, it was a great flight, much better than the same type of aircraft from SFO to Newark a few days earlier. I put it down to it being international v domestic. If Delta wasn't the best flight out of this bunch, there's something wrong.
Thank you #Sterlingpacific for helping sponsor this video - much appreciated. Thank you sir for a great original trip idea. As always, taking the time to zoom in on the menu is sincerely appreciated. I was laughing to myself wondering why you didn't try "southwest'? Of course they don't do first class (more like no class). Hope you fly Virgin America (even if just for the safety video, which is probably the best on the planet). Thank you again for all your time given to plan, film, and edit for all of us.
My dad worked for American Airlines as a Mechanical Engineer for 24 and a half years. He referred to TWA as "Teeny Weeny Airline" and DELTA as " Doesn't Even Leave The Airport"
So, delta’s domestic first class experience isn’t quite like what you experienced. It’s closer to Alaska but with a screen at least. No “suites” and no club access either. Kind of wished you’d shown that instead of an international flight.
Your videos are helpful because I'm a nurse practitioner and I travel all around for conferences and my company allows me some choosing ability as to who I fly with.
I've flown Hawaiian in first, extra comfort and main cabin, and I agree that the staff are fantastic. In my experience Hawaiian dinner service in first is pretty good and they do good cocktails!
Flew with United before, the cabin crew were not friendly at all. So hearing you being barked at and had a bad experience with them, did not suprise me at all. Great video as always and very informative. Fly safe!

Dear Person That's Reading This, We Don’t Know Each Other But I Wish You All The Best In Life 2024 And Beyond.🙏 May I also remind you of the fact that our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions. Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION!

Bingo card was seriously missing some Tims and a Chocolate Desert. And was the Hawaiian 'guava juice' actually Mai Tai?? Great video, thanks for taking us along. Delta nailed it on this one.
Very well done review! They have actually come a long way in 1st class for domestic airlines. But I guarantee the international ones will be a lot better. Please do one for the foreign international airlines....if you have enough left!
Another great report - thanks Will. Sorry you'd to endure United - back in the day, we'd an amazing customer experience through Continental Airlines, every time. We knew when management moved from Houston to Chicago that things would deteriorate. We'd no idea just how badly... I'm glad I was able to coach tearful flight crews through career change options during a ground stop. Nasty, horrible airline - treats its customers with even more contempt than its employees - and I'm personally connected with one of their VPs who had health issues... United screwed him to the wall, poor fellow. Glad that you'd better experiences aboard their many competitors!
Kudos to Hawaiian & United for not locking the shades on those dreadful pieces of equipment. I’m usually offered a PDB in American First or Business on US domestic. Thank you for mentioning Sterling Pacific - have desperately been trying to find out your carry on brand 🙏🏻

Well, of course you preferred Delta. You're comparing apples and oranges. You should have flown all international flights or all domestic flights. It's not really fair to compare a long-haul, ( 10 hour ) international flight to all others being domestic and less than six hours.
Completely different menu, amenities, etc.
I was thinking the same
Should have flown UA and AA flagship routes across the pond for apples/apples.
United's international Polaris leaves Delta in the dust.
As a frequent business flyer, this is exactly the sort of comparison content I need. Thanks Will for doing this, it's awesome!
14:26 thank god I'm not the only person with that passport fading issue. I often worry that the lost detailing would somehow cause me to not get through passport control in countries I visit, but seeing that you have it also & you being far more travelled than me does give me some relief :)
Congratulations you survived United Airlines!!!
HAHAHAHAHA.... such a true statement.
Not surprised with united. I flew with them 6 times is February and didn’t have great experience. Told the flight attendant my partner had a nut allergy and in response she said “what does that mean, what do you want me to do about it” I was taken aback with this. Such a shame as we decided to upgrade for our long flight home
what! that’s horrible my goodness
As noted by others, comparing U.S. "First" Class domestic cabins to your experience in Delta One (international Business Class) isn't a fair comparison. There is a difference between domestic and international products of all U.S. carriers, so you could have theoretically flow SFO-LHR in Polaris and could have had a better experience than flying SFO-MSP on DL.
Great job otherwise and keep 'em coming. 😀
We should have known better listening to his accent knowing that he isn’t based in the US. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. Why would anyone do a review comparing domestic vs international for the US?? Those of us based in North America know that’s the defining difference. Over in Europe, their international business flights do not have lay flat beds they just leave one empty seat beside you it is just hilarious. Thanks for the heads up. I won’t waste my time watching this video.
Delta is my favorite airline.
As a Chicagoan, I was happy to see you in my city, but it killed me that you had to get off a long flight in HAWAII and go straight to another flight! Wow! I think a week's vacation in between could have been budgeted, haha
Awesome journey. I think Delta was my favorite. I hope you had a very long rest when you got home! Safe travels.
$2100 for his carry-on if anyone was wondering
Where?
Rimowa?
😮
Cheap compared to Louis Vuitton,and a lot more robust.
He's not the average citizen anymore
Nice to see a fair comparison of apples with apples and narrow bodies with wide bodies, well done!!
About to eat dinner. Perfect timing! ❤ I love these reviews of airlines and trains the most. Can you do a bus review soon, Will? Luxury bus! 😅
You get the mad head nods when you talk haha
Don't ever talk about it being difficult to spend several days flying first class. Like that's not a challenge, that a blessing
Fr
I love you Sunday uploads. Big love to you, Millie, Mum & Dad. Kindest regards, Richard U.K
We are United Plus members and fly business class on overseas flight. So far, we have been pretty happy. But it is great to see that there are better accommodations. The best experience was on Air New Zealand. But anything out of San Francisco with the Pretzel rolls is great.
I feel like you missed an opportunity to fly Delta One from Honolulu to Atlanta. My condolences for getting stuck on United from Hawaii instead.
I understand that some people hate united, but it all depends on how lucky you are on which flight crew you get, also every flight I’ve been on with united I have had a great experience with them!
American Airlines usually do a preflight drink but I think because you were on a night flight they didn’t do it. Great video love All the different camera angles
My dad was Army, and we flew back from Germany in 1969. I remember the stewardesses were very friendly. They even gave us neat little toys to play with. There was smoking allowed on the plane, but I don’t recall it bothering us.
First Class in the US = Buisness Class in the rest of the World
It is at a business class price tho, at like 1.5-2k for a 6 hour flight.
Yeh, I agree that Delta received my top pick as well. Enjoyed the entire video.....thanx! 👍😃
never been this early to a video, always amazing content!!
HEY kislux I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
Your experience with United staff is almost always my own experience as well. I usually fly United because it's the cheapest and that's my main concern right now.
Absolutely loved this! Thanks for comparing and sharing! :)
You make great traveling videos, I never get tired!😊
Really liked the video (as always). I do think that comparing Delta One to the domestic first class products of the other airlines is not quite fare, though. It would’ve been more fair to compare maybe a domestic Delta first class seat to the east coast. Also, you have to fly delta one (or have the right credit card) to get into the Sky Club; even international delta first class (e.g., SEA to Mexico) by itself doesn’t get you in. ☹️
Delta has no international First. The highest class international for Delta is Business and an international long haul Business gets you to Delta One’s super premium lounge Delta One lounge in JFK.
I have flown United. Business class to New Zealand and London and staff have been very helpful to me
As I have discovered, drinks and pre departure service on AA first class is at crew discretion. Also most lounges are aging and limiting hours...so if an early flight or late arrival you'll have to join the general public offerings. Most Delta must have the amex companion card to enter. First class is not very classy any longer. Fun trip you had though.
Delta getting a leg up here with the only international flight. Not apples v apples. I can say I had a great flight with United from Newark to Amsterdam a few months ago on a 777-200. Even though an older aircraft, it was a great flight, much better than the same type of aircraft from SFO to Newark a few days earlier. I put it down to it being international v domestic. If Delta wasn't the best flight out of this bunch, there's something wrong.
I love the addition of the cool old cars at the former TWA terminal.
Thank you #Sterlingpacific for helping sponsor this video - much appreciated.
Thank you sir for a great original trip idea. As always, taking the time to zoom in on the menu is sincerely appreciated. I was laughing to myself wondering why you didn't try "southwest'? Of course they don't do first class (more like no class). Hope you fly Virgin America (even if just for the safety video, which is probably the best on the planet). Thank you again for all your time given to plan, film, and edit for all of us.
Virgin America shut down in 2018 and merged into Alaska airlines
I flew business on a 787 with Air Canada and its a lovely experience- much quieter than older gen aircraft
My dad worked for American Airlines as a Mechanical Engineer for 24 and a half years. He referred to TWA as "Teeny Weeny Airline" and DELTA as " Doesn't Even Leave The Airport"
No, no, no, Delta stands for Divert Every Leg Through Atlanta
Delta: Don’t Expect Luggage To Arrive.
5 in the morning on a Monday and I’m already watching trek trendy’s new video
So, delta’s domestic first class experience isn’t quite like what you experienced. It’s closer to Alaska but with a screen at least. No “suites” and no club access either. Kind of wished you’d shown that instead of an international flight.
Your videos are helpful because I'm a nurse practitioner and I travel all around for conferences and my company allows me some choosing ability as to who I fly with.
What...no Tims and no NASA gear...feels weird...lol
He had the NASA shirt with his Emirates pyjamas.
Yup, Tims out. NASA on!
@@DrunktopusWhat are Tims if you don’t mind me asking?
@@AJzilllaProTimberland’s shoes
@@szymonpason8327 Thank you!
I've flown Hawaiian in first, extra comfort and main cabin, and I agree that the staff are fantastic. In my experience Hawaiian dinner service in first is pretty good and they do good cocktails!
mightytravels AI fixes this. Flying First Class on Airlines.
I see Trek Trendy - I drop what I’m doing. I watch.
i can't imagine paying so much for first class to have dirty seats and crumbs everywhere.
7:03 love that there's just a casual Delorean in the parking lot lmao.
Have you ever planned come to china and have high speed train, foods hotel and more
Flew with United before, the cabin crew were not friendly at all. So hearing you being barked at and had a bad experience with them, did not suprise me at all. Great video as always and very informative. Fly safe!
BREAKING NEWS: Coca-Cola reported diminished sales in the past quarter as celebrated RUclipsr Trek Trendy orders only ONE DC over four days of travel. Sources at the soft-drink company report privately that efforts are under way to contact Mr. Trendy in an effort to restore his formerly massive DC consumption. Meanwhile Coca-Cola's stock price dropped massively amidst the uncertainty of Mr. Trendy's future intentions. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to develop this story.
Im back on my trek trendy videos. Life hit me like a ton of bricks so this is a nice getaway video. Thanks for sharing
So happy you’ve done videos in the sky again
Dear Person That's Reading This, We Don’t Know Each Other But I Wish You All The Best In Life 2024 And Beyond.🙏
May I also remind you of the fact that our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions.
Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION! A shockingly sad truth. 😔
In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return to rightful owners Native American people.
Notorious global cardinal crimes the Christian West has committed, and benefited a great deal, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on, may I ask? 🤷
Same to you ❤
Amen!
You too!
Isn't it a shocking sad truth that Native American population in their motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions.
Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION. Like I said, a shockingly sad truth.. 🤷
@@thykingdomcome7238 I absolutely agree, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, such as North & South America and Australia & New Zealand, and return to rightful owners Native American people and Native Asia-Pacific people.
True, notorious global cardinal crimes the 'Christian' West has committed, and benefited a great deal, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on.
You have to fly from Seattle on Alaska if you want THE best lounge access EVER. I’m serious. The lounge in Seattle is freaking amazing.
booking a holiday asap 👀
RUclips fell off
avoiding any US carriers for 15 years when ever possible and thanks to your amazing review this will not change. Delta if there is no other option. ANA, Singapore, Qatar, Emirates, and a few more and you are in heaven...
Is Jal airlines any good?
Is ANA better?
@@enjoystraveling 1000% amazing product, amazing crew, amazing food.
@@enjoystraveling oh yes. very good
United attitude for service … 🤦🏻♀️
Delta for me is the best us airline , never had a problem and staff are great
Fly Tarom next pls
Bingo card was seriously missing some Tims and a Chocolate Desert. And was the Hawaiian 'guava juice' actually Mai Tai?? Great video, thanks for taking us along. Delta nailed it on this one.
How does NASA organize a party?
They planet!
See yourself out 🙄
Nah....... It was okay 😆😉
@@wildone8397 haha I tried 😅
@@jaythewildcat 😉👍
Very well done review! They have actually come a long way in 1st class for domestic airlines. But I guarantee the international ones will be a lot better. Please do one for the foreign international airlines....if you have enough left!
why do people fly obvious business class and present it in these reviews as first?
Not the same and completely misleading
the AA flight while marketed as "First Class" is really their international business class hard and soft product
Another great report - thanks Will. Sorry you'd to endure United - back in the day, we'd an amazing customer experience through Continental Airlines, every time. We knew when management moved from Houston to Chicago that things would deteriorate. We'd no idea just how badly... I'm glad I was able to coach tearful flight crews through career change options during a ground stop. Nasty, horrible airline - treats its customers with even more contempt than its employees - and I'm personally connected with one of their VPs who had health issues... United screwed him to the wall, poor fellow. Glad that you'd better experiences aboard their many competitors!
AA and United Airlines should be ashamed! This is embarrassing to say the least
Kudos to Hawaiian & United for not locking the shades on those dreadful pieces of equipment. I’m usually offered a PDB in American First or Business on US domestic. Thank you for mentioning Sterling Pacific - have desperately been trying to find out your carry on brand 🙏🏻
Truly unimpressed
20:25 I would love to see a review of a cruise from the mainland to Hawaii. As someone who does not fly, but still enjoys all your airline review videos. Because I like your perspective on things. Maybe I’m biased. But yes, a Cruz review to Hawaii please 🚢 🙏🏻
