  • In this video, you’ll see United Airlines’ First Class Hawaii service on a nine hour flight from Honolulu to the East Coast of the United States.
    At nearly 5,000 miles, this United Airlines 767-400 flight is nearly as long as a flight from Washington to Moscow. It crosses six time zones and we’ll fly at an altitude of 35,000 feet.
    You’ll see United Airlines’ lounge in Honolulu as well as the seat, food, and service available to First Class passengers on this long-haul domestic route. You’ll even see the Inflight Entertainment system on a United Airlines Boeing 767-400.
    Perhaps best of all, you’ll get a stunning view of Diamondhead as we depart Oahu and some pretty spectacular views of the sunset over the Pacific Ocean.

    I was born and raised in Hawaii and was a staunch supporter of Hawaiian Air, even back in the 70s and 80s when they competed neck and neck with Aloha Airlines. When Aloha bid Hawaii aloha, that left Hawaiian with a monopoly on interisland travel, so I’m glad Southwest is now offering interisland flights.

    Most of those amenities, with the exception of the legroom and larger seats, used to be the standard in economy. First class had menus, an on-call bar, and for that long of a flight two to three meals. It is still that way on international flights such as Korean air and Lufthansa. American carriers really seem to be cutting costs and offering lower quality of service.

    • @JeanClaudeCOCO
      @JeanClaudeCOCO 2 года назад +8

      When you compare them during covid times to those other carriers who fly on the same time length it’s really a differential. The only lounge I’ve seen come back fully is the star alliance lounge at LAX but it’s for that big carriers who fly into LAX and I see why the service hasn’t been paired back as those airlines aren’t cutting as much as the US carriers. The onboard and lounge products are just not up to par with those airlines. Covid has made it worst and they blame the virus for the further cuts, while other airlines are scaling back up.
      Hopefully with European passengers coming back the JFK, Chicago lounges and dinning services will get back to pre-covid levels.

Yeah, not many captains turn on channel 9 anymore because several of us got sued by clueless passengers who didn't understand our communications with ATC and thought they'd been put in danger. I don't know breakfast wasn't offered because it always was when I flew these trips. Of course, I've been retired for a few years. Anyway, thanks for flying with us.

I sort of knew about it, but my first visit to Honolulu included making a visit to the crater, and I sort of had the same realization... except I sort of did know of course that the Hawaiian islands were all formed by volcanos. On the main island (Hawaii itself) it's really incredible how the landscape changes vis-a-vi the lava flows. Those are not at all active, but you can see how the island changes when you drive around the perimeter, as much as you are able. My favorite to visit was Kauai, though I only went there 3 times. They have the 'Grand Canyon' of the Pacific. Look that up, if you don't know it. It was beautiful. Go there if you have not done so, choose any island. You will enjoy it. I was so lucky. I'm really feeling that now at 65. Take care.

Your food offerings were much better than we had. Most of the shops and services at the airport had shut down, and a day later they were seriously shutting down the entire airport. I gladly paid the fee for a more private experience while we waited, enjoyed some scotch, and kind of weak meals - but we were just happy to have a safe space before we flew home and quarantined ourselves for 2 full weeks. The people were great, and we were all heading into the great unknown of Covid protocols. So far, we are surviving!

    Thx for uploading. Brought back memories to my first flight 2005 to Honolulu, Frankfurt to Newark and than on to Honolulu all by then brand new continental B767-400 where I could enjoy the middle single seat in Business class. Due to the schedule I had a 21 hour stopover. The plane and the seats look the same than on your flight. On my flight I had access to the lounge also on the domestic part, since I traveled internationally. As far as I can recall they served a second lunch before landing in HNL. But again that was Continental and a long time ago.

    Back in my youthful late 20's and 30's (late 1980's), I traveled extensively for both biz and pleasure out of Boston. Had memberships in Continental, Eastern, Northwest Orient, United, and a a handful of other lounges. The big Conti Lounge in Newark was like a second home for several years. My first flight was out of John Wayne Airport in SoCal, on a Western Air MD80 (if I recall). That took me to DFW for second flight on a Pan AM 707 back home to BOS. Haven't flown since 2004, but I sure do enjoy your reviews.

    I flew HNL-EWR in first, it drove me crazy that there was no pre-departure beverage service or second meal. I asked the FA for a bottle of water before departure and was scolded. Felt like I was bothering the FAs by asking for water and coffee before landing. United charges quite a premium for this service but treats it as a standard domestic flight.

    If "breakfast" would be anything like Delta served on my flights from HNL to ATL, or ATL to MAD in the past few years you're better off with coffee and a Bischoff cookie. They were terrible. I think one was supposed to be an egg wrap or something. It was a real shame because the dinners were excellent. That being said, Delta's first class cabin layout is far superior with all seats having direct aisle access.

      With the following adjustments air travel is actually very safe.
      I brought Clorox wipes for screen, armrests, power and IFE ports, seat belt and tray table. I put the overhead air vent, also wiped down with a Clorox wipe, directly pointed at my head, creating positive pressure away from me.
      The flight was pleasant, on JetBlue’s Mint service, and uneventful.

      Domestically in this configuration, it is sold as First Class. If it was an International flight it would have been sold as Polaris. Of note, the 767-400 equipment in United’s fleet is a result of their merger with Continental as these aircraft were flown by Continental, hence being EWR based. Prior to the merger, UA was based out of JFK and CO out of EWR.
