As a 21-year airline captain myself, I pulled up this video expecting an "eye-roll experience." Not the case at all, Paul! I not only found your production quality outstanding, your content was real, yet compelling--even for this industry insider. Kudos! 👍
dad, you're 63..
@@eXebeno AS FAR AS I KNOW, I'm not your daddy! 😅 That, and I'm 8-yrs shy if 63. 🥳
@@737smartin how did you manage to become a captain at such a young age? I hear most people stay in regional for 3-5 years before moving to major FO and then another 3-5 for captain by the time they are 30. I am honestly really curious! Please let me know! Thanks!
@@ytpr1379 I wasn't ahead of schedule for my era. Hired by major airline at 34...upgraded to captain at 41. Today, majors are hiring 25-yr olds.
@@737smartin omg, I am so sorry. I misunderstood your comment. I thought you were 21 year old instead of being a captain for 21 years lol! Sorry.
I’ve been an aircraft mechanic and recreational pilot for most of my life. I’ve got commercial helicopter, airplane and instructor endorsements but the flying career has always been on the back burner because of the huge pay cut and poor working conditions for entry level pilots. The pilot shortage has opened the door. I shall step through.
Darryl.....WALK THRU THAT DOOR.....you go guy....pilots keep the world....well.....the WORLD..!!...God Bless You......
@@Liz-zy4bj Thanks Liz. I appreciate the encouragement. Perhaps having been in aviation my whole life, I don’t see what I’m doing as particularly altruistic. Instead of fixing the bus, I’ll be driving it. Besides, I like the view.
Do it! My dad was a lifelong pilot and private aircraft owner. He started out with the Civil Air Patrol when he was in his 20's. He became a Highway Patrolman, became a lieutenant and started the helicopter rescue program in Az in the 70's. I think owning his own plane was the highlight of his life, as flying was his passion.
Lucky man. Been an airline mechanic for 35 years now. If I was 40 years old or less. I believe i would make the same choice . Good Luck to you !
It's all good until another calamity hits the industry. I've seen so many over the years and steady paycheck is more important than carrying people to vacations.
UA Scheduler here. Miss the days where we had could jump seat with you guys, then you sat with us for a day. Also love the positivity of flexibility of the job. We hate giving horrible assignments as much as you dislike getting them. We are all pressed during these times and it good to see a pilot being positive with it all. I will pass this along to Marinella to know she made your day.
It’s all part of the game. 😂 We appreciate you guys whether you know it or not. 🤙
I flew for 40 years, some military then airlines. Now retired. Althought I miss flying, I certainly don't miss those exhausting back to back trips and so many different hotel nights. People only see the glamour part of the job when they see pilots at the airport or onboard. They don't know how demanding the job is.
I love your positive attitude toward your career and airline. We need more airline pilots like you…
I have so much respect for pilots. I just returned from Europe last month and had great flights. The knowledge required to fly a plane is immense and you are responsible for many lives. Thank you for what you do!
Well said Noreen, agree 💯 %
This is under my deceased wife's name but, I was a Flight Test Tech for McDonnell Douglas and my wife and I were both Pilots. Grueling schedule you keep. Keep telling others, it is interesting. I never lost my love for travel, 32 Countries and all the states. ANC is my favorite destination, followed by Vienna.
Happy flying. Karl Hamilton
That is really badass 👍👍
So sorry for your loss ❤
As someone who travels for a living 40 weeks a year, I can totally appreciate what goes into planning and scheduling flights from a pilots perspective. I often stay at hotels close to the airport on the eve of my departure as often my customers I go see are seldom if ever near an airport. That being said, I often run into pilots/ flight attendants at these hotels and have knocked back if not bought a round of drinks for these hard working folks. I’m always fascinated listening to stories or at the least picking a pilots brain about everything that goes into flying passenger jets ✈️. Should I ever run into you on the road…. Drinks are on me. Stay safe. Oh I yeah I did subscribe.
I look forward to it!

@@michaela7100 lol 😂
Paul,
My father started flying for Capital Airlines way back in the days where he flew the DC-3 where he met my mother who was a flight attendant. After 27 years of flying for Capital, then United he retired as Captain of the stretch-8's flying from Chicago to Honolulu where he had a 3 day layover then back to Chicago.
My dad has been gone for some time now but I still remember being around 4-5 years old standing in the door at our home in Fanwood N.J. listening to my father tell me to help my mom, watch my sisters, take care of the dog while he was in his uniform as he was leaving for Newark airport where he was domiciled at the time.
I remember flying as a non-rev to see relatives and other places around the country.
Although I'm 63 and haven't flown in many years, your video's bring back a lot of memories and I do appreciate them.
Same here. 73 years old; my airline pilot father has been gone 15 years now. It's a very different family life than what is typical. I remember the first Atlanta airport terminal; it was a converted Quonset hut and there were no concourses, just tarmac and stairs, rain or shine, sweltering hot or freezing cold, gale force winds or not. Then there were wooden barnlike covered concourses snaking out across the tarmac with openings (like a barn) on each side opposite each other for the baggage carts to roar through. We were little and our parents had to hold our hands real tight and be on the alert because they barely slowed down.
My father was so tired of hotels and eating out that we never flew anywhere on family trips even though it was free. We either camped or stayed with friends. All the places we could have gone far and near, but we didn't.
What beautiful memories you have! Those were the golden days of aviation for sure. Look forward to seeing you onboard someday!!
So much tespect for you and your Dad, and Virginia Moss. You guys are great putting so much effort into getting people safely from point A to Point B.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I loved reading your story! We lived in Connecticut and I remember my United Airlines pilot father in his brown uniform coming and going as a kid in the 70's. My mom was a UAL 'Stewardess' in the 60's and met my dad on a crew bus in SEA. I was asked by a United pilot if it was hard growing up with a parent gone alot, the answer was no, it's all we knew and even as a little girl I was always so proud of my parents and admired them tremendously.
My dad retired after 34 years in 1994 and passed away 3 years ago, he was my best friend and miss him terribly. I watch these types of videos in honor of him and it helps me with my grief.
Captain James M. Hykes, I miss you papa!
First! Also, love this content! Super interesting to see the inside of a captain’s life and scheduling. A lot of the content out there seems to focus on pilots just starting off and not the mid and upper levels of being a pilot. Cheers!
Thanks so much!! It’s an incredible career no matter what you’re flying!!
Agree, very unique perspective from other channels in the industry.
@@mylayoverlife except when the NC comes out with a turd TA
Hey new pilots deserve love too 😁
Dude, you gotta continue these videos showing us your daily life when you're working. Its incredible to watch and I can binge on it for hours. Keep it up!
I used to watch a couple of FA channels whose travel content turned into pray I don't get called, airport parking lot shot followed by slam click at destination hotel. I'm enjoying your operations and travel content and that you're enjoying what you do. I hope that never changes.
Love the channel and your videos are so informative but also fun. Love the mix of pilot duties and layover experiences.
Your insights into the world of being an international pilot are fun & fascinating. Thanks! Keep it up!
Awesome content! Thanks for sharing your passion for flying.
Love your channel Paul. I've learned so many things I had no idea about. Well done
This is a great channel. You are very easy to listen to and explain things in such a way, that it’s easy to understand. Thank you.
Really love your videos! I can tell you put a lot of work into them so please know that it's appreciated!
Really enjoyed your vlog!! Thank you for doing this, specially the good energy. I can feel it ⭐️
Just found the channel - enjoyed it! Nice touch with the bloops at the end.
I recently flew cross country with my 4 year old son and after seeing your video talking about how kids can still ask to see the cockpit, we did that. He had a blast sitting in the captain's seat and meeting the pilots. Thanks for the tip!
That’s so good to hear!!
Thank you for this channel and all your content. It really puts things into perspective. We often just hear about the glamour of a pilot's life and you show the hard work and the family life that is affected. It definitely takes a support system and understanding to do this job.
Thank you for the explanations of pilot lingo as well as some of the tips to show appreciation for the crew. Be safe!
First of all love Paul’s videos the content is great!! Came across his UA-cam channel a few days ago. Love seeing inside a airline captains life and how it all works. I love airplanes always have ever since I was a kid. I thought it would be exciting being an airline pilot but never pulled the trigger
Keep the videos coming Paul
Great videos! I love flying as much as cruising! I have been a long time United customer and I find your content so interesting. Glad I found your channel.
Really authentic Paul, thank you. Now you and Kelsey are on my two favorite (only!) youtube pilot channels to watch! Great job, such hard work but your passion shows! Keep it up!
Lovely video. I appreciate the professional editing and the level of detail that goes into your videos. I'd love to hear more about who decides which aircraft type you fly.
SOOO good, thanks for sharing, Paul!! ...love the bloopers at the end ...HA !!
Thank you for the videos. I’m currently starting my aviation journey, with videos like yours I can see all sides of the career path.
Love these videos, as a student ATC and living with student pilots. It’s cool to see what they can potentially be doing later in life.
The outtakes at the end were really cool. You did an amazing job putting this together thanks for bringing us along with you.
Great video! Quickly becoming one of my favorite UA-camrs! Very well done!
I love your videos, great job. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Just stumbled on your channel and found it very interesting. Looking forward to seeing more of your content. My husband and I haven’t flown in 10 years! Our kids, 11 and 7 years, have never flown, but we have a Florida trip scheduled in October. Looking forward to flying again!
You have many talents.. great storyteller, filmmaker and a broadcasting voice! Just subscribed and looking forward to continuing the journey! ✈️😎
Thank you!
You answered a great question about so many cancellations here in new york you spoke bout captains shortage. Videos very good and educational bout your industry thxs
An interesting life for sure!!!! Thanks for sharing, be safe and have fun!!!
Although it’s alway been an interest of mine, my interest in aviation really broadened when I studied to get my Part 107 certificate. This is one of those situations where I believe your vids were recommended to me because of my watch history, and I am glad they were. I really like your videos…..thanks for taking the time!
I really enjoy the trips and layovers. So glad I discovered the channel. I have a new aviation channel of my own so I understand what it takes to produce great content! Safe travels! Love the layover hacks and suggestions.
Captain, seeing you get ready for your next flight brought so many great memories of watching my dad get ready to fly (he was a commercial pilot in the 70s and 80s flying mostly 727s & a 747 in the Dominican Republic). I didn't follow his footsteps (got really close to), but I got into the film world and you are gracefully combining 2 things I really love. You just earned a subscriber! Cheers to what you do, and here's to clear skies 🍻, always!
Just started watching your videos, keep up the good work. Your content is very informative and engaging, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching along!
These are my absolute favorite aviation related videos! Keep it up!
Very nicely done, Captain. It was great to learn a bit on how scheduling and assignments work for the cockpit crew. Especially on United which has always been, by far, my favorite airline. Keep flying, be happy, and stay safe.
Just found your channel and absolutely love it!!!
It's refreshing how down to earth you are giving insight into your travel work life I like how you indulge into the chocolate dips in Portugal and workout on the hotel bedroom floor this is real life stuff keep up the good work safe flying
I’m 37 years old. I’ve been working in chemical plants since I was 21. Aviation is something I always loved and really wanted to do. I’m starting on the path to get my pilots license and hopefully become a professional pilot. Your video’s have really helped further inspire me to follow my dream. Hopefully I’ll meet you someday in the air.
Exact same situation here man! Been a plant operator most my life here in Houston so far but I’m looking into United’s aviary academy. I’m 41 now
@@badams075 I hope it works out for you . You only have one life. Do what you love
i believe it is way too late as there are age requirement and hours you have to build......
@@gogonut22c there is a forced retirement age with the majors . There is plenty of time to get the hours needed and still enjoy a long career.
Man this is crazy to read, I am also looking into a career swap from being a chemical operator in the south Houston area. Started when I was 18 and am turning 35 this year, I hope everything works out for you!
Great content, well edited… your channel definitely deserves more exposure and more subscribers.
Thank you so much ! Your channel is amazing and you’re so good at it :) I love seeing this ! I love seeing all these places … I think I’m jealous but I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to keep up your schedule !!:) ❤️✈️
Just found your channel this evening and loving it! Thank you for sharing, really enjoying your videos. Your job seems amazing, I applied to be an Air Hostess but I was not tall enough!
Seriously fascinating channel. As a passenger who normally flies in my Europium back yard, I’ve never given much thought to how crews and captains live there lives. 👍👍👍👍
What an amazing and creative video production. It is great cinema. You have a real talent here. Not to mention your pilot skills. You've got it all!
Pual, you are great at what you do, i could see this catch on and becoming something bigger then this channel, great insight into a pilots life, looking forward to your next video! FYI, love the outtakes, shows what you go thru to put out good content!
I just came around this video. This is educational and informative especially from a pilot's point of view. There are many channels from flight attendants but not from pilots. Thank you for creating this channel 🙂
Very good content. I can relate to your lifestyle, as I was a flight attendant for 8 years.
Been really enjoying your videos. I fly a lot with United (1K Customer) and I gotta hand it to you United Pilots. You guys have THE most softest landing techniques ever! Smooth as silk! Thanks for posting and fly safe. Cheers!
Great video! Thanks for taking us with you. Such an interesting channel with a handsome, engaging host. (And your bloopers show us you aren't taking yourself too seriously, which is always a plus.) New subscriber looking forward to seeing more of your intriguing life! xx
Thanks for sharing you are so humble and funny! I absolutely love watching you! 😃
Awesome pilot life content! New sub here, keep up the excellent work. Also the editing, is top notch!
What an amazing video! Not only are these super informative and fun to follow along, but you’re also quite the cinematographer. All the different shots and editing that goes into this is no joke. I hope you enjoy making these as much as I love watching them. Thank you for the outstanding content.
Your videos are terrific. Thanks so much for producing this entertaining and informative content!
This was really enjoyable to watch. The editing was excellent (as always!).
This is my first video of yours that I have watched and I really enjoyed it. I used to work for Amtrak as a Conductor and our travel was similar. Unlike airline pilots, we have a certain section of territory we operate (freight crews are smaller as their trains are much slower). We had crew callers and we would get in like a line, if you were working the extra board. It would depend upon if you were Conductor qualified or not (an assistant Conductor is what you start as). There would be a list of jobs and how many people were in line. If there were three jobs showing and all three were conductor jobs, I could come in at number 4, and catch the first job if the three in front of me were just ACs. Which happened more often than not. I worked out of Oakland, CA and Sacramento at times as well. There times I could get called out of Oakland for jobs out of Sacramento. The best one to catch was the Coast Starlight, the train that runs between LA and Seattle, to San Luis Obispo. It was an early show time, around 5 am or so, and leave around 630 am or so, if the train was on time. You'd get into San Luis Obispo around 4pm. Here's the beauty of the this run, you'd sit for almost 24 hours (our union rules required us to be paid after 12 hours for up to 8 hours) so this run would turn into, basically a three day run. Being called from Oakland you got paid 4 hours each way, so it was a nice pay day for two days.
For our hotels we'd stay at the same ones on our outbound trips, so a lot of the regular crews would leave personal items in their rooms. A few would have cars so they could go do things away from the hotels. A few lived in Bakersfield (the south end of the Sac/Oakland San Joaquin trains because the cost of living was cheaper than the Bay Area. They would stay at a hotel in Oakland when they came up. I lived in Bakersfield for while with an ex girlfriend, she'd come up on Saturday's when I worked a relief run, I worked the first train out of Bakersfield to Oakland and return on the last train of the day out of Oakland. We'd take off to San Francisco for the day and just relax on Sunday before I left to go back on my next trip. Lot's of good times. Not sure what goes on now, that was 20 years ago.
I do have one question, who was the "we" you were talking about? Did you go out on the town with fellow crew members? How do you guys do the domestic compared to International flights? I'm curious, because I fly United because I get a Veterans discount and the wife and I have had a lot of positive experiences with United. Sorry this was so long.
My dream as a teenager was to become a pilot. I got a job as a flight attendant with TWA, there were 13 of us that shared a 3 bedroom crash pad in New York, I bought a single engine prop plane, but never made it to the big leagues. I got to see the world on their dime. It was the best time of my life and it made me the person I am today. I have an insane love of travel and cuisine from around the world that was sparked by those years. I really enjoy your approach, your attitude and your presentation. (I couldn't think of another flight based reference)
Were you @TWA during the controversial takeover? What a sad story I really thought you all were trying to turn yourselves around especially with the new fleet upgrades! I miss TWA
@@NovejSpeed3 Yeah, Carl Icahn took it over just to rape the company and make a profit. I miss TWA too.
I’ve been a global business traveler for 30 years and just found your site and love it… thanks for your awesome content
Super cool channel! I just found it and I’m hooked so thanks. I used to be a commercial pilot with the hopes of making it to the airlines but chose a different path. 757 was a dream for sure. Keep up the great work and content!
Starting my career as an FO a week from today. These videos are super insightful and are helping to get me excited, and are also fortifying reasonable expectations as far as lifestyle and commuting are concerned. Just hit the subscribe button!
Wishing you a long and safe career, Jack. Thanks to you and all the other pilots taking us home or to places we need to get to.
Freight pilot here, I like watching the process your company utilizes for trips, ours are somewhat the same but different as well. I can tell I am getting old because it seems like all I want to do is arrive at the hotel, exercise and sleep...lots of difference flying the majority of our flights at night. I like your channel, stay safe
Do you watch Captain Boeing? He is also a freight pilot out of Israel.
Loving the content.. 1st time I've seen your channel and it was truly enjoyable. Subscribed!
Loving these vids - needs to be more of them
I have a friend who is a pilot for United Air Lines and never asked him about what happens when he is flies overseas. I use to travel for my company and had some time after work to do some sight seeing. I like your videos because it gives information about what happens when you fly for an airlines.
What a lovely video. I really love seeing pilots at the airport and I have so much respect for them. Just sub and will see more of your vids. Love the bloopers btw.
Great content and awesome editing and creative style! Keep up the great work
Love these videos! Thanks for making
Paul, your videos are seriously getting even more and more next level with each one. As a creator myself (as a hobbyist), I know there is a lot of dedication put in to set up all your shots! All that said, as a 1K, I am really enjoying that you give us a peek behind the curtain on the life of a UA pilot. Still waiting for you to fly me somewhere fun!
Thanks so much, Jerry. Look forward to flying you somewhere too! Please say hello if you ever see me!
Of course a season traveler like yourself would follow Kara and Nate! That episode of them swimming from Alcatraz was really good.
Love the bloopers 😆 Loved the whole video 💜 You seem like a really guy. Keep up the great work in the air and on camera. 🙌
Keep it up mate thoroughly enjoying the volgs, Cheers Colin.
Dude you are giving me the courage to fly. I see you traveling all over the place and here I freaking out about a 1.55 hour flight.
I am a commercial helicopter pilot but I am giving serious consideration to one of the RTP options currently available through the regionals. Thank you for this catalogue of quality videos. They are really inspiring and informative.
@@powerup5406 what kind of information are you looking for? I’m happy to help if I can.
Loved the info and your editing style! I'm finding your videos very informative as I consider a career change to flying. I just have to work a little longer to save up for school!
Paul - thank you for your entertaining and informative channel!
This is probably the most informative and well produced video on the daily strife of the three and four bar professionals who are underpaid and unappreciated. Thank you and best wishes for future success.
Why are the 3/4bars Pilots underpaid.
Oh, the captains that fly international make very good money! They are NOT underpaid.
And we appreciate them a lot, a whole lot 🙂🙂
Interesting job. I’ve been driving over the road for 46 years now. ( still enjoying it, except for the drivers risking their lives the way they drive) I’ve only flown a couple times, would like to fly again.Always wondered how the pilots managed their flying time & how many hours you could be on duty! Thanks for what you do. Stay safe
I just found your channel. Great stuff. The bloopers are awesome too.
Love this channel 👌 The bloops at the end we’re brilliant too 🤣🤪
I have the upmost respect for pilots now.I now see everything that every pilot have to go through day in and day out #keepflyinghigh
Combining a short term vacation rental business that will always have a room for me where I will be based as a pilot would be an ideal situation :)
Laughed out loud enjoying the bloops at the end! Really enjoying the videos and your style.
Brother, I enjoy the videos. Keep sharing and inspiring people. Enjoy your travels and experiences.
First of all, massive respect for what you do. Secondly thank you for the insight into a pilots life. Have you ever flown to Austrailia etc? Lastly, if you dont pick up a flight do you still recieve pay as if you did? Thanks captain.
Man that looks grueling to me. During my working life I flew cross country for conventions, new product introductions, training, entertaining clients, and visiting our factories in the States and Europe. It was fun for about 5 days at a time. Layovers, cancelled flights, airport food, luggage handling, and ground transportation took a toll. It looks like you enjoy yourself and make the most of the opportunity for adventure. I learned a lot from this video about airline pilots, thanks, and good luck to you.
Your channel just came out of my search here at YT and watched this particular vlog. Now I'm hooked to your channel and clicked the subscribe button. Being a pilot was a dream job when I was a kid but as fate would have it, I manage golf courses instead. Great travel vid and just curious about how all this flying and all affects your health and private life. Fly safe and keep them videos coming.
So glad I found this channel! Binging videos now! ❤
I love, love your videos.
I work on the ramp for an airline. So many of my coworkers complain nonstop about the job. I love the job! I love being in the aviation business, and never take it for granted.
Do some pilots complain about the job nonstop?🤣 I suppose if you do something often enough, everything eventually becomes just a job after awhile. Also, I would imagine if two pilots don’t necessarily get along well, it would make for a very uncomfortable work environment🥴
There are plenty of people who complain about the job. It certainly has its downfalls but I love it.
I’m not ramp, but aircraft services although with the huge staff shortage I actually do kinda spill into some of the ramp stuff. Mostly because I can drive! But yeah I enjoy my work and wouldn’t really have it any other way. I never get tired of driving a vehicle that is getting a huge multi million pound flying behemoth of engineering brilliance into position, or being the tiny little human walking alongside that same behemoth if my partner wants to do the driving.
I hope I never get bored of scurrying between aircraft as one of a veritable army of people working to make sure every single one of our flying metal behemoths fly safely to its destination, or of enjoying the scent of jet fuel, the aircraft exhaust or even when I’m in our airport building where our crew room is, and I’m in the middle of said building far from any windows but I still know exactly when an aircraft takes off because I can feel the building itself vibrate.
Okay the insane security restrictions will always be a bit of a pain in the ass, but still worth it to do work I genuinely enjoy.
The funny thing is that I could never actually be a pilot even if I had the money and time to qualify. I don’t travel very well, I like the familiarity of home and my feet very much belong on the ground. I’m not afraid of flying, not after seeing the insane amount of effort put into making each flight safe.
But the lack of space would drive me crazy and I’d genuinely pity the poor bastard assigned to be stuck in a room smaller than some closets with me for hours on end. 🤣 But I’m curious though, and as a subject aviation is fascinating. Hence why I’m watching this video. But yeah I do hear pilots complaining about this and that as we ride the staff bus to and from the terminal and staff car park. I’m convinced half of them may well be boys in grown up bodies, but that’s a topic for another day.
Fantastic video Paul.
One question: talking to a United F/A during layover in Narita, he said pilots and F/A usually do not stay at the same hotel. Is that true?
First time subscriber from Trinidad love your video and hit the hay 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹✈️✈️✈️
Wish I had done the pilot training a decade ago, this looks like an amazing career! 👏 thanks for sharing.
Great video. Curious why London requires a IRO and not Porto, since London is also under 8 hours. Is it determined by aircraft type?
Glad your using Marriott rewards. I used to work in a hotel and there were so many guests that didn’t sign up for the rewards programs. I think they assumed cause their work was paying they wouldn’t qualify for the rewards - which isn’t true ( at least then ).
Get all the hotel rewards.
Love the videos!
Most of us pilots sign up for all the rewards programs. The amount of times they actually give us said points is a different matter.
Heard they gutted the rewards program. Sad.
@@ceciliacicchinelli4797 That is indeed sad. I am not sure if the Ritz Carlton deal is still good today. Having this card lets you have access to Marriots club lounge worldwide among other perks. You dont have to qualify for this privielge with hotel stays but rather qualify and pay the high annual fee , like 400 bucks or so
Amazing insight into your career! Thanks!
So interesting to see the ‘behind the scenes’ of the pilot life!
