    It is hard to say whether air travel is safe during pandemic as the virus is invisible. Just about any activity has risk. This video is about to document what airlines has been doing on regular basis and what my flight is like in the current climate. It is not endorsing or recommend flying is safe. United currently do not have social distancing onboard their planes but said they will alert passengers if the flight is more than 70% for options.

      It's not free. How would you feel about paying an extra $8 every time you walk into an airport? I'll bet I'm not far off the mark.
      They were already cleaning *plenty.* Every time I've ever gone to an airport (except late hours) I have always constantly seen cleaning people working. The difference is that they're taking it to a greater level now, and it's bound to be painfully expensive.

      Smartass. You know G.D. well that the costs will be tremendous, regardless of how the payment is made. You know that prices will rise everywhere. Not just air tickets. Concessions, amenities, parking, EVERYTHING.
      I bet everytime you pay $10 per day for airport parking "911 fee" or $10 per day "911 fee" on your rental car that you say "$10? Pooey. They're keeping me safe."

      In the US they have some 5 million covid cases, 162k deaths. All they are refusing to wear masks. They have no plan and now they are behind. The netherlands have 57k cases, 6k deaths. They are wearing masks. They have a plan and they are ahead. Germany has 200k cases, some 9k deaths, they are wearing masks and have a plan, they are ahead.
      Masks offer some protection enough to keep asymptomatic carriers of this virus to spread it further. Pointless? Then fine. Go out without protection and get infected. Is this your plan?

      @@Canleaf08 Actually the Dutch are not. The Dutch government has officially advised people that masks are not required as the scientific evidence DOES NOT support their use. The Dutch are not the only ones showing some sanity, Denmark, Finland and Iceland also do not recommend masks.
      My wife is United 1K and we both fly regularly. We WILL NOT fly by choice until this unscientific, dangerous mask wearing madness is revoked. Next week we drive from Texas to Virginia to visit friends. Previously we would have flow United first, paid for from our own pockets, so United have lost at least $1.3k in revenue from us this month.

      While I have never been in the US, I do agree seeing pictures that the inter European buiseness class looks pretty shit in comparison (well, they look non existent), but the economy looks pretty much the same in Europe and in the US.
      Though I don't think buiseness looks as if it matters that much in Europe, most flights are very short haul routes that are 1h-2h.
      But yeah, I don't think I recall ever seeing a special buiseness class layout in any (European) flight I've took.

    I never knew the 777 was that old, I always thought it was newer than that. That pilot is right, you're not always gonna have a perfect landing. We aren't perfect and we face obstacles. But we can overcome those obstacles if we never give up and never surrender

      This is also the 1st aircraft in the world with the drop down overhead bins. Nope, that wasn’t part of any interior renovations. Those overhead bins are actually original to 1995, just way ahead of their time. 777 is an excellent design all the way around!

      The ticket price are driven by supply and demand. Right now international travel are quite restricted which had a skew in pricing. In longer term if we all back to travel airline may not have enough supply so there is a change of price hike.

      Airlines can't survive if 50% of their most vital revenue is nullified by government forbidding them to fill up planes. Those full planes pay all the bills, and make everything else possible with an airline. But unless they are nationalized (the most devastating outcome, but very possible, and the government subsidizes them like a Communist country), the prices are going to have to soar.
      Yes, that's supply and demand. When the supply is forced downward by 50%, prices soar. Unless the government [further] interferes.

      Seeing passengers talking with their mask down, taking time enjoying their food and drink, is not reassuring that people are serious in minimizing risk of infection. Also taken aback to see crews using their hand to grap the front of the mask on their face. More training and safeguard are needed to convince people to fly.
