Cheers Steve, as you know, Virgin’s UC is pretty neat, as was the club room at JFK, the lounge on the aircraft well, everything really. As per usual, I got over-excited and over-indulged! All will be revealed in a forthcoming video 😂
I’d like to try some of the other US carriers to compare. Last one I used was American Trans Air and that’s going back a bit, 757 and a 727 SFO to Chicago Midway if I remember correctly. 👍
Really enjoyed this video! Thank you for doing a video in economy, which lets face it, is how most of us poor folk travel. Loved the bargain bus, what a great service! Looking forward to the next one!
Hi Elaine. Yep, I can’t afford to be ‘Trek Trendy’ all the time (well, at all really), so hope these videos appeal to us ‘normal folk’ a bit more. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers 😊👍
Delta - fly them New York to Florida. Went economy. One thing they were the only airline to offer a no lactose meal which when served was just that. Also not a modified vegan meal of beans. Good on you Delta
Brilliant videos you do, you want to try flying domestic in China.........as soon as the wheels touch the runway, there up! saying that some of the other pax have probably never flown before, its good fun though!!
Thanks Richard, well I’m honestly flattered! I’ll try my best to keep producing decent stuff. There’s only me putting it together tbh and I have a full-time job other than this. Will keep doing it though and plenty more to come 👍
@@LetsMakeaTrip I've been a transport "geek" since I was about 5. Addicted to random trips. Your videos honestly always make me happy. If you ever head Norfolk way mate let me know and I'll do a guest appearance. Ha!
26 years old......... (!) Comfortable seat layout on the 767 in economy is the only plus...no refreshment on the Boston hop ??? My choice at the moment is Jetblue ...
Most US bound flights go under extra security and have agents posted near the gates that add more questions. It saw it happen to a couple of French nationals when I was headed back from Paris to Chicago.
Full marks to that pilot of the first Delta plane. That was some smooth touchdown. I've been on some real boneshakers in the past, oddly come back to the UK. Your second question. Yes I've seen many people try and spend a penny just before touchdown. Very dangerous actually. Nice video mate 👍
Cheers MR 2010. Yes, a smooth flight that first one - as was the second I’ve just never seen anyone get up like that before! The FA wasn’t best pleased!
Delta economy is heaven compared to easyJet. I was served an old sock on a dry crust of bread on easy - washed down with a cup of room temperature urine.
This might interest you. If you fly Turkish anywhere from time to time they give you 2 free nights in Istanbul. Economy gives you a 3 star hotel. 5 star if you travel business. They include breakfast from time to time. If your lay over time is over a certain time they give you a free city tour of Istanbul. Might be worth making a video of this. For your records I don't work for Turkish airlines. I am a retired Cape Town tour guide. I really enjoy your videos , thanks.
Never open a sealed plastic salad dressing during turbulence at the beginning of a long haul 12 hour flight. If like me you spill it on your Tshirt , it stays with you all day.
Cheers David and thanks for the tips. I had this with a yoghurt once and I soon learnt to ‘prick’ the foil top before opening! Istanbul is somewhere I’ve never been. It’s on the list and this would be a great way of seeing the city. Thanks 👍
Nice series in the video. To go through one by one: For me, however nice a bus is, railed transport will always win :) So I'd do the tram 9 times out of 10 (maybe once just to see it!) Delta in the cheap seats seem fairly normal for long haul eco, unlucky with the IFE though. Did you mention it though, as they may give you some miles? At 12:38 you get a clear view of the exact location of the near miss the other day 8-| And the A220, nice plane for a smaller trip length, I did one on Swiss earlier this year. Thanks again!
Cheers mate 😊 yep I’ve done the Swiss A220 too - I think it’s a pretty nice aircraft, shame you don’t get the same IFE as with Delta (when it works!). Didn’t think about mentioning it at the time but a few have said I should’ve. Wonder if it’s too late now, worth a try?
Haloooo! I've watched your channel for a while and now I've subscribed 👍. (After unsubscribing from somewhere else)... I like and enjoy your down to earth and honest style. Thank You!
Hi Neil, well many thanks for the sub mate - really appreciate that. I don’t have enough money to make Trek Trendy style videos tbh 😂 though I like some of those videos (from a vicarious point of view), my stuff will tend to be a bit more basic i’m afraid! Cheers 😊👍
That’s boarding from the front I guess but it was nice to get a look at how the other half live (I say that but I’ve just flown back from Doha with Qatar in business and that was amazing!).
I hope you wouldn't base your opinion of an airline solely on whether the IFE worked on one specific flight - unfortunately, tech outages like that can happen to any airline at any time. It's not great when it does, especially on a long 7 hour flight - my sympathies, I totally understand - but these things do happen occasionally. I've been on lots of flights where parts of, or the whole IFE, wasnot working...it's funny how we've come to expect this from modern airlines. With that, the cabin on the B763 looks pretty good in my opinion, you wouldn't know this was 20-something years old! I flew BCN-JFK on a DL767-400 in summer 2021 and it was very good (yes, my IFE worked.) BTW, my airline will typically compensate customers when the IFE isnt working. It's not going to be much - maybe a $25 credit? - but it's better than nothing. Did Delta offer anything like that? I guess because it was working somewhat throughout the cabin they might not have done that.
Hi BloomingOnion. Of course not, but I will give a 100% honest account of what was good and what was not so good. As I said, the crew were lovely and the A220 was a smashing aircraft (some great IFE on that). Delta didn’t offer any compensation and tbh, I was bothered enough for that to even cross my mind. All-in-all it was pretty decent. Put it this way, I’m back in the US next month and have booked another flight with Delta (AUS - RDU). Cheers 😊👍
Really interesting to see a video of a routing which few if any others have attempted. Personally I would have been tempted to fly via London (LHR/LGW) choosing Jet Blue for the transatlantic sector. But then again the connex are not good and a night stop may/would be required. Cost would also have been higher. Jet Blue says is it has restored the sort of Y onboard catering which was offered by the others many years ago.
Thanks Alex. Yes, tbh it cost me a bit extra to get up to Edinburgh and then an overnight stay, but I thought I’d do something a bit different. Then he reason I went up to Boston was to fly out of there with Cape Air in a Cessna. I ended up in White River Junction for a very specific reason, but that’s another story I will tell in another video! Overall, I thought Delta were fine and the second flight on their A220 - that was a lovely little aircraft. Cheers for the comment. 😊👍
I would complain to Delta about the malfunctioning IFE on the transatlantic flight if I were you. I had similar problems with the IFE in my seat halfway through a Qantas flight from Singapore to London back in 2009. I emailed them a complaint when I got home and they responded with an apology...and £80 high street vouchers. 😁😎
Respect for making these videos. I got a suggestion...could you review the 197s for transport for Wales which just entered passenger service. I think it would be a great video, many thanks
Starting the day on a bus in Edinburgh and finishing it at Boston Logan, thats my kind of day. A hugely enjoyable watch as always mate. What did you think of the A220?
Cheers mate, yep the A220, my second time on one of those (did MAN to ZRH with Swiss a couple of years back). I really like them and the IFE on this one was really smart. Delta were pretty good too overall.
Enjoyed this video, Lothian buses are unique, as they owned by the local councils (Edinburgh City Council, Mid Lothian Council etc). So not profit driven for shareholders
Great trip report. I have only been once to the US in 2005, but someday I'd like to return there. As for the Edinburgh Airport connection, in 2019 we took the tram from Waverley Station (over £6.5 for a one way, but thus far the most expensive Airport link I travelled on was the Marconi Express at Bologna Airport, which last costed me about €11 one way for a five minutes ride, disgraceful, all with the excuse of higher energy bills). I knew there was the Airlink bus that was cheaper, but with all the traffic on that day in 2019 I simply didn't bother, as we were held for sometimes at security due to queues.
€11 is quite expensive for 5 minutes. I think the Heathrow Express can be costly but at least you’re on it a bit longer. I like EDI and now I’ve tried the bus there, I’d do it every time - very comfortable ride with all you need. Cheers mate 😊
The baby gag cracks me up every time! Edinburgh’s airport bus is excellent (as well as all Edinburgh buses), got the tram once to try it and as you said, never again.

Much improved video technique. I would have edited the close up of the 767 through the window from the boarding area rather than the "sorry about that" but that is my 40 years as a vision mixer speaking.

Another great vid. I have never flown Delta before but despite your IFE issues it looked pretty good, it was great to see a 2-3-2 config in economy and not the more usual 2-4-2. I have only ever flown on one trip on a 767 which was Lan Puru Madrid to Lima and I really enjoyed it. Hope you enjoyed the Virgin Upper Class experience, I will be flying Premium Economy to and from New York next Month. This will be on an older A330. The new A350 Upper Class looks a big step up from the aging A330 but they have made Premium Economy worse by cramming another seat in to make it 2-4-2 config.
Yes, all-in-all, I enjoyed both the economy and Upper Class experience. I mean, Delta were fine and their A220 I thought was really smart. I’m going back to the US next month too -Virgin PE to Austin then back from Tampa on their new A330neo in UC again which I’m expecting great things from! Fingers crossed they don’t change it!
