Welcome to iTripReport's flight reviews, where we review everything from the service to the flight. We make sure to to put every single detail on each of our flights, from a first person real time perspective. We record everything from the cabin to the flight itself, this video will make sure to include everything you are looking for in a flight! Enjoy!
Let's be honest, the aircraft itself is simply beautiful. The seats and lighting is incredible along with the overhead bin space. We just hate that it doesnt have the monitors! That's it.
I think it's a little more than that. It seems that the standard of First Class is really sliding to nothing more than Economy Plus. I'm just not accusing AA, but I think all domestic airlines in the United States. Last year I was in First Class and asked for just a little bit more Macadamia Nut Snack and the flight attendant looked at me as if I wanted her kidney, she chuckled and then left. I still don't know what that was all about. If you want further proof just look at how much of a downward spiral in first class happened when Alaskan acquired Virgin America.
@@sacramentoguy949 it's an A321. First class has always been set up that way in these type of aircrafts. They arent made for long haul flights.
Guys, fly within Europe on any given main airline and Business class is the same configuration and seats as economy if on a single aisle aircraft. Thats for sure the reason why airlines in the US are trying to copy that product.
@@db60615 There will be a A321LR and XLR just google it
@David Spaulding 757 is my favorite plane of them all. Nothing has power like that thing!
American really had things pointing the right way. On my last flight with them, on an A321NEO, they served us a delicious sausage omelet, along with the best shirley temple I had ever tried. The crew was awesome. I will be sure to fly American again!! :)
Love that pilot announcement explaining the new engines and features of the new cabin. Awesome!
Very Nice Trip Report Man! I Can’t Wait To Fly The New American A321NX Sometime In The Near Future!!
Great video once again. I truly appreciate the in reviewing the airline. Even though i wouldnt mind talking through the video. I just find these silent but informative videos more pleasant
I'm amazed at how quiet the engines are! ♡♡♡
This is really better than the MAX.
Of Course it is it wont go Spastic Chucking a Hissy Fit and nose dive straight into the ground without Control Killing Everyone onboard !!! Airbus Saves Lives Boeing Kills Lives Sorry i am a Loyal Airbus Fan Just stating the truth !!!
@@TheAirplanejunkie ruclips.net/video/2cSh_Wo_mcY/видео.html
Ryan Littleton. Qantas 72 was an A330-300 BTW. Tim Miles that is an over exaggeration. But still I like the NEO better than MAX it is safer, but there’s safe Boeing planes too
Their not comparable as the MAX is a much smaller aircraft designed for a different market
Cameren Reynolds the 737 will be a safe after the software upgrade
Amazing video! thanks for sharing, I love Airbus neo's machines. Absolultely reliable!
The Buzzsaw lives on!... Sorta. Great video btw, the plane looks absolutely amazing!
Very nice man. Im glad you like the airplane. It seems more quieter. I havent work on it yet but it will take some time for the A321NEO to operate out of Miami, we operate the A321 Standard. Thanks so much for posting the video and thx for flying with us.
I flew on JetBlue's NEO and it's a beautiful machine. JetBlue have tv screens on all seats, with direct tv, movies on demand and free wifi....last time a flew with american airline was like in 2000... havent change much!
can't wait to see more of these I like the A321B and the neo their cool and loud
It’s a great looking cabin with subtle improvements everywhere. 👍
Great Video, thank you for sharing.
I like the 321NEO, and I'm glad they're not only getting the MAX, but I think not installing TVs is a huge mistake, people don't really want to bring their own, and if they do, it's still nice to have the option. Delta for the win!
They have the 737 MAX
Most people bring a cell phone or a tablet. I think the lack of IFE's is a good call. They're redundant, dirty, slow, and low resolution.
@@-Wreckanize- right, although Delta's A220 has upgraded system, but usually the Long haul screens are much better quality.
@@-Wreckanize- not really, depending on the airline. Also, WiFi is usually extremely slow and unreliable, so this is just their way of saying 🖕🏼 to the customer.
CLEAN!! I LOVE AMERICAN AIRLINES!!!
Huge improvement! Liked it alot.
Tbh I really like this product.
A321neo looks very very good on AA livery!! love it
This was really helpful. I have some of those 500 mile upgrades sitting in my account that I thought about using to upgrade to 1st, but after seeing those seats, I'd rather stay in MCE and hold on to upgrades for flights that have better beats that fold flat for red eyes.
Great video ! Really enjoyed it..
There you have it.. the face reveal of our beloved iTripReport @11:25 :-D
He looks different than what I imagined--looks young,perhaps in his early 20's,not sure why other YT trip report vloggers also have a fear of a 'face reveal'--perhaps not to be singled out by flight crews on other carriers
Pretty sure you have to be a Nonstop Dan or Sam Chui level of vlogger to get special attention. I think airlines actually train their crews to recognize those two, and they both have largely acknowledged that fact and aren't reviewing as much as showcasing airline product offerings now.
I caught that to. And it looks like he films his trip report with an iPhone.
Seemed to me the Captain never shut-up?? Talked almost ever time you were filming.. I know I like peace and quiet on a flight..None of which I would have gotten thanks to the pilot!
@@jasonmoors1191 actually from what I noticed, mid teens, I'd say 15-17.
Can’t wait until Delta gets these! IFE is the way to go
I recently flew on this plane type from Dallas to SLC. The first class seat was fine but the in flight entertainment is nothing like Delta. Great flight attendants and a nice quiet plane.
Amazing video. Liked and subscribed.
That has to be America West folks. Way too happy!!! Love them
Cool, my home airport and my next plane. Phx-Mco 6/4. Got a cool preview of my seat/view. 😃
Lovely seats and airplane - fine interior. American has a great livery Excellent wi-fi. I think that was a great product from American.
Nice video , keep it up! 👍
Epic landing!
The first officer’s name is Daniel Tiger😂
Dan tyger is a hell of a pilot.. flew with him at his previous company.
Steven Richardson that’s so cool!!
Now, was he Daniel STRIPED Tiger?!!
hahahahahahha
Try saying that a with a straight face
I love your videos :D
Great report doing my A321Neo in 8 days LAX to DFW
Love it love it love nice video
As i have been saying to people,..The A321 NEO is leaps and bounds ahead of the MAX -8, -9!!! nothing to do with airbus vs boeing rather just a comparison of 2 aircrafts in the same category.
the max -8, -9 are very efficient aircraft, they're actually pretty similar if you compared
@@Jack3md yes the max is pretty efficient in its own league,...but having flown on both many times...i would choose the A321NEO over the Max any day! As an operator's side of things,..the Neo flies further, carries more payload, has a wider cabin, extra washrooms in economy( dont get me started on those micro mini tiny toilets on max aircrafts!!),..from an aviator's side ...its more prettier and looks much more modern than the max in every way possible. Basically,..the NEO is better than the MAX...the only similarities is that they are both single isle aircrafts. but as an aviator enthusiast i like them both.
I love the mood lighting.
If this is the American Airlines cabin, can’t wait to see how great the Delta cabin will be!
Paying a premium to fly first class and i have to bring my Laptop to get entertainment . UNACCEPTABLE .... Jetblue is still the best
Charles Duran agreed
Deltas better in my opinion
@@rdu_spotterben5028 Delta is always better than AA. AA and United has always been cattle car. Delta is cattle car, but makes it slightly less like it.
amazing video quality!
the quality of that streaming was amazing
Great entertainment option with the free WIFI, looks like streaming was solid.
Nothing beats that New Plane smell :).
Great vid. Really enjoyed it. You're funny too.
I love your videos
Great plane!!
Very nice trip report. 30 inch seat pitch is about the limit for a tolerable 3 to 4 hour flight. Looking forward to a flight in a 321neo fairly soon!
During the flight I witnessed at least 5 people bump their heads with the overhead bins (me included), just thought I should point that out
I will give the MAX props for having a bin design that has a lot more headroom.
I'm a flight attendant for Qantas Airways , why don't you fly over seas, bueno SI es que puedes comprar El pasaje
@@mrvwbug4423 That might be true, but, you know, there's the whole MCAS-thing and them falling from the sky. But I guess that's just personal preference - more headroom or arriving alive.
STOP HATIN ON MEXICANS, IDIOT!!!!
Are Delta and Hawaiian the only airlines who put pivot bins in the A320 family?
Hey, Thanks for coming to my city which is Phoenix Arizona itriprepot
The buzzsaw does NOT live in, not from the other videos I have seen on takeoff. This video actually featured some buzzsaw, the best I have seen.
I love it
It's absolutely the wrong direction. I'm an AA frequent flyer and 8/10 times I fly with them the WIFI system is down and the captain has to reboot it and even after that it still doesn't work, leaving you with absolutely nothing to do on flights. Taking away the PTV is just a way of spending less money even after making record profits fueled by baggage fees, and has nothing to do with the future. This actually feels like a step back in aviation.
I completely agree with you. I don't have a tablet and don't want to watch movies on my phone for 4 hours, let alone be at the mercy of an unreliable wifi system. Alaska is doing the same thing, which is why I prefer Delta's newer planes that have IFE.
And that is why I fly Delta.
The PTV's do add weight with their computers, but as a result this feels more low-end. It's crazy how the A321ceo and 737NG are nicer airplanes than the A321neo and 737MAX for many airlines, but it's all about money almighty.
I said something similar in a post above. There's no monitor on the back of the seat for in-flight entertainment.
trypical of US airlines. And pretty much all major Corporations. the greed over passengers.
I can never understand how USA airlines can call their first class as such, more like European Premium economy
I’ll take this on short-haul over what most European carriers call “Business” (i.e. empty middle seat on a 3-3) on theirs.
Yup you're right so I suggest forget the first class
While Europes business class on short haul isnt much on seats, their meals are supposed to be really good and theres some other benefits
Most USA airlines do short flights, I don’t really see a need for them to be any better lol. I don’t usually do more than 5 hour flights so I’m used to it :/
The so called business class on the Neo is roughly equivalent to most long haul premium economy seats. Just flew from Hawaii to Phoenix, overnight. Absolutely brutal - will never book business on a Neo again. Limited recline, thin padding, very uncomfortable. My flight out was via Dallas and on a 777 with fully lie flat business - night and day better. This is a significant down grade in service offering.
When I heard the first officers name, the Daniel tigers neighborhood theme song came to me lol, they should have played it on the mic😂
Airbus is fantastic aeroplanes.Very secure and confortable.....
Best aircraft by airbus can't wait to see what a321xlr is going to be like
Wow. This is your first time of the a321NX huh? I wish it will come to Detroit
i was plane spotting at kmco today and saw her come in just a beautiful aircraft in american colors got good video landing and takeoff and pics if u want them maby put them on ur channel
I love how it looks! Liked
These things are gonna take over the world. I also notice the lack of IFE screens. The cost-cutting is evident. A321 is a bean counter's favorite, and can only be more with the NEO, now featuring less bells and whistles.
You do know that the cabin layout and all of its features and amenities is determined by the airline, right? AA could have put 50” flat screens at each seat if they wanted; they chose nothing. Considering these planes will be flying longer segments (4-6 hours is not out of the question) that’s a long time to stare at the in-flight magazine, in my opinion. In 2019, there should be PTVs. I do like the lighting, large bins and the look of the seats though, but that legroom isn’t great considering there isn’t even an IFE box to take up vital space.
I like byod and the new holders. The ptv eventually get so old and are not fun to look at. Nice report. Thx
Would I be wrong by wondering why no cannon water on an inaugural flight ✈
Lets be honest, the CC pitch is happening on all airlines now. Just flew JetBlue and they were also hawking CC offers!
Nice Video
Oh my
Goodness! You have the same FA as I had 😂
Great video! Those device holders are neat but I'd rather have in-seat entertainment screens as an option. Especially because every now and then, the WiFi glitches.
Taking this aircraft, MIA to SAN, tomorrow and not looking forward to it even though we are in 1st. I am spoiled by MUCH better seating for trips this long in FIRST CLASS. This is more reminiscent of early 2000 era seating. Can't wait for my points to run out on American so I can start with a better airline.
Oh...forgot to mention, I fly back two days after double disc replacement in the same a/c...redeye...YIKES!
Thanks for the video, first one I have seen/found! I have to agree, I am very sad to see PTVs go, but at least the BYOD still allows for entertainment. I also agree that the A321neo offers a nice update with the mood lighting. It may not be Virgin American, but credit to American for following their idea of mood lighting to make for a better in-flight experience! Question for you, what did you think about these seats compared to the seats on American's current A321 and A321s (sharklets)?
Forgot to add... I have had, on American, some bad crews, mostly nice/good crews, and some completely AMAZING crews. I recently did a first class Transcon with American, and I cannot say enough about how amazing the flight attendants were as well as the flight crew. If you haven't done one of those yet, add it to your list!!! The a321t is a great plane and American really knows how to win the transcon service. Jeb Brooks has a great video review on that flight (I'm sure you have seen it)
I haven't been on a plane yet without monitors. Do you find a noticeable amount of passengers not using a device or laptop and kind of just staring at the back of the seat for the whole flight?
With this progress, spirit Airlines will be very soon on top. Other then that AA same as Volaris
You should do jetblue and delta flights to Santo Domingo. That’s a big market that needs a lot of boosts and improvements.
I need to see difference between CFM LEAP 1A engine versus CFM LEAP 1B on the MAX, because on the MAX flights, I hadn’t heard the engine noise/lawn mower as you are showing us in regards to how it sounds on the MAX. Strange.
Its something about a brand new plane WITHOUT IFE......Just feels like its not complete...Just my two pennies...SN God bless the Captain giving such a great introduction to a beautiful aircraft!!!! Shame American ignored the occasion!
In addition to the white spiral thing on the engine, they should paint part of the blades white too. So birds can get out of the way.
What is the main difference between airspace cabin and normal cabin except mood light?
2:33 how the guy was staring lol
JetBlue has them beat!!
Many travellers including air travellers bring their own electronics and it makes sense to not feature screens or in-seat IFE since it's intent is to reduce overall weight of the aircraft. Many of these narrow bodies fly Domestic, Canada, the Caribbean and shorter South American routes, it's usually shorter than a 7 hour affair.
No surprise about there being no festivities at the gate at PHX. The NEO is an updated version of an existing type and they don't tend to make a big deal in that case. There wasn't anything major at MIA when the inaugural 737-8MAX made its debut either. To them its just another 737. Just as to them this is just another A321.
Them engine blades UGHHHHHHHHHH wow
Oops, I subbed on accident, I guess it works.
Why no PTV’s anymore? People like them!!! Bring them back!
The company claims streaming is the future and so many ppl bring their own devices. They also say its less maintenance without seatback monitors and less weight to the aircraft. I truly believe the majority of passengers like having a seat back monitor but hey.
Lando CalrisiaN I agree. I feel like for us passengers it’s easier having a tv in the seat because you won’t have to put it away or move it or anything.
@@chrisrosen3490 EXACTLY, I'm a flight attendant and see it all the time. These days on American a lot of times there are issues with the WiFi or movies etc. Hopefully we can fix this so it won't be an ongoing issue.
@Lando CalrisiaN How is being a flight attendant? And I’m not sure about American but on delta they have PTV’s on almost every aircraft I fly. And they also have WiFi but I. Find it slow. But maybe Americans is faster, I’m not sure. Do they provide devices on American Airlines in case people don’t bring them?
Also some iPads may not work or have mechanical issues or may freeze. And so far the PTV’s on Delta don’t freeze or anything. But I’ll survive either way. I fly domestic usually on narrowbody aircrafts. Up to 4 and a half hours max. I guess it’s just for long haul flights that this worries me. What if there is no outlet for the iPad? Newark to Singapore is give or take a 18 hour flight. What if you forget your iPad, or the on board WiFi crashes, or there are no outlets? I just think none of those things are issues if there are PTV’s. But since you are a flight attendant you probably know a lot more than me about this.
@@chrisrosen3490 Varies by airlines. I fly mostly domestic so can't comment on international flights but would believe there are outlets. Some AA domestic planes still have seat back monitors but that is quickly changing to streaming only, so they'll be gone within the next year or so, sadly.
Better than all you can find in europe for sure
That engine Reminds me of a 767-300ER
I was at msp yesterday at concourse E gate E10 flying United a320 to Denver. And at msp I saw an American Embraer E190.
Big Chungus so do you want an angels donut?
Glad to see more America based carriers, at least these full service airlines, value safety and buy Airbus.
Glad to see you're spouting shit without knowing what you're talking about. Boeing still has a flights/crash (1.81 million flights/crash vs. Airbus' 0.82 million flights/crash) and nearly exactly the same full loss event (FLE)/crash statistic (both are right around 0.686 FLE/crash last I saw).
Atleast they didn’t mess it up as much as they did with their 737max8 interior
Having already reviewed brand new interiors from American and Alaska, do you have a review of Jetblue Phase 2 (or Phase 1 if not 2) coming up?
Not yet. Haven’t seen one of them come to San Diego recently, but I’m on the lookout.
At 8:14, that's should be the setting,but at 8:16 later, the sound of the engines increase.That's mean the pilot put the engines into the most powerful setting.
It’s a shame AA did not opt to continue to have PTV’s as they missed out on being good compared to what UA has now done! And yes, I’m surprised too nothing interesting was going on at the gate to commemorate the inaugural flight. The breakfast looked pretty good and the mood lightning and great crew! Everything else I’d say was satisfactory
It seemed so quite during your inflight clips
The lav in the middle is kinda weird for narrow body yeaa? like a portapotty
Another great video! and on a side note some people should not have yoga pants on!!!
First class video.Great flight report.Awesome product for AA
My house is seen at 9:19! It’s only about a 1 minute walk to the airport!
I'm easy and have low expectations. I'm a big guy and for me, First/Business I don't care about IFE or really the food. I am just happy not to be in a 3 seat row and with more leg room. Bonus is lay flat bed for long haul/international flight.
Great video firstly! Not sure why American only offers lie flat business class and first class on a321T lax to nyc and a330 Philadelphia to lax anyone correct me if I am wrong. In Australia Melb. To Perth Sydney to Perth serviced with multiple lie flat wide body a330 and we only have 24 million people. Went on delta 757 2 2 configuration lax to Washington recently. Beautiful plane the 757 even though they are old now the toilet and interior of the plane had recently been updated. So many routes in the US and to Hawaii over 4 hours and no lie flat option.
18:11, it actually takes out the doors 2L and 2R
The long announcement about the frequent flyer program, in which the person gets overly excited about each facet of American's product...was that a live performance or recorded?
Is the flight attendant welcoming passengers onboard in need of medical assistance?
jetblue still has personal TV's!
