I remember back in the day taking a United 737-300 from Denver to Baltimore and that was considered a long 737 flight. Now these suckers fly to Hawaii and Europe from the lower 48 easy. Fun fact back then for that flight we were served a meal with actual silverware IN COACH!!!
@@ShawnsTravels Also hopefully post Covid, you would get an actual meal should you fly domestic first. The snack box is fine for a short flight, not a cross country flight.
I was able to get upgraded thanks to my Skymiles Medallion status. Because I fly frequently, at the time of this video I was a Gold Medallion which includes free upgrades if available. You automatically get put in the list once you have status and will be upgraded if there is still open seats prior to departure.
I was wondering that too. But some people board not knowing they will serve food and may have snacked inside the airport. I always make sure that way I'm not full!
excited seeing this as a preview of my flight. out of SFO to ATL today!
Great video thank you for sharing hope to see more

Its incredible how much their efficiency has improved.. And how much less service we now receive :/
@@ShawnsTravels better planes sh#tier service...sounds about right 😄
Delta is doing a great job improving T2.
For sure, the lady there told me they will be moving the Sky Club to a much better and bigger location once its all finished.

@@aviationwithjeff it depends on the flight, the longer flights do get meals, usually atl-den and longer
@@jcspotter7322 Correct. This should have had a proper meal. Short hops have the snack boxes.
I've had a proper meal on LAX-DFW with Delta before.
@@aviationwithjeff 100% agree. this one In my opinion was long enough to warrant the meal. I've had it before on LAX-DFW
Correction! You were crossing Runway 24L before departure :)
Wondering when they will go back to regular meals
Hopefully as travel normalizes across the Atlantic and Pacific we can see the regular services return!
How can you become standby for first class if you don’t mind ?

There is no runway 26R in LAX, you departed from 24R
You are 100% correct. I messed that up and got confused when editing the video. My apologies.
At LAX that was actually 24L and 24R, not 26L and 26R

Why would the guy in front of you say no to the snack box 😭 it looks so fancy

@@ShawnsTravels smart!
How did you get upgraded to first class?
I was upgraded to first class for free because I am a Gold Medallion with Delta. Just frequent flyer status, thats all!
@@ShawnsTravels oohhh
