Full Flight: Delta Air Lines B717 Hartford to Detroit (BDL-DTW)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Hey guys! Welcome to my first B717 full flight video! It's always cool to fly on a new aircraft type, but this one was extra special because it's an older plane that doesn't have a lot of years left to it, especially because of COVID-19. Currently as of 2020, there are only 4 airlines left flying the B717: Delta, Hawaiian, QantasLink, and Volotea. That's why flying this jet is so cool! And the further back you go, if you're an av geek like me, the better and louder it gets! It was such as relaxing and enjoyable flight for me, coupled with the fact that Delta seems to deliver well every time I fly them and go above and beyond most of the other US carriers. The flight departed & arrived on time/early, boarding process was good, crew was professional & friendly, loved both airport experiences, got a free snack/drink, WiFi was offered, free entertainment was offered, there were power outlets at every seat, and the scenery/sunset was great as well! One of the best domestic flights I've taken in recent memory! Highly recommend Delta! Hope you guys enjoy!

Really nice to see a good video about BDL, my hometown airport.
Love the old wHA/NHL Hartford Whalers theme! Decades ago were full of fun home games. Gone 22 years alas...
I’m not from Hartford but I love me some Brass Bonanza
As a hockey fan since 1967, love hearing Brass Bonanza and great memories of coming from Boston to see a Hartford Whalers game.
I miss living out east. From Stamford originally and usually flew out of White Plains but miss going to Hartford as a kid. And yes bring back the Whalers plz
It's crazy how in the distance (top left at 14:14 where the blinking white lights are to the left of the red blinking ones) is where I used to live.
B717 is a nice plane. I flew on them when Airtan was around. Many flights from ATL to MDW.
The last T tail in the DL fleet... :(
So cool to see a video out of my home airport!! I haven’t seen one until this!
Same
i know right!
Agreed
Me too
Do you think you can post more vids out of my hometown airport BDL
when i was there Aer Lingus used the 757 which is better than a 321 anyday
Nice Video, I Fly On Delta B717
I'm from Scotland so have no idea about the significance of the music, but loved the upbeat intro. Also, over here we never get the chance to fly this beauty so thanks for posting!
Detroit Suburbs are awesome. Spent a week there prior to the Pandemic. Love all the middle eastern places and Tim Hortons!!
Music sounds very 70's,almost like background for a commercial! Who was your dining partner at the Saybrook Fish House? Amazing how fast things change in a mere 5 months--no social distancing, no face masks on board,nothing said about 'be safe'--none of this was the mindset at the time--really surprised to see Aer LIngus at BDL,am guessing there was US preclearance in Dublin--I guess your flight routing was top secret since you got a 'Forbidden' notice! :) Flying over Ontario,you can safely say you were 'out of the country' briefly--my understanding is that the Detroit River was used for liquor smuggling during Prohibition--interesting choice of "Let it Shine' as the ending music
was there in july of 2019 flying on the MD-90 to and from ATL great flt gonna miss the 90s and 88s
Brass Bonanza For The Win !!!
Go Wings !!!!
Aloha! If you ever want another B717 ride, Hawaiian Air's total inter-island jet fleet are B717s, perhaps the largest concentration still flying. They are perfect for inter-island travel since most flights are a half hour or less. I'd be reluctant to board longer flights, though, because of my bust knee. Still, I enjoy inter-island trips, especially when I take grandkids to visit relatives. My formerly frequent trips, of course, won't happen again any time soon. Please DO NOT travel to Hawai'i until the COVID-19 pandemic quiets down. 90% of cases here are travel related, brought by people flying in. There's a mandatory 14 day quarantine for all incoming passengers. Violators are thrown in jail.
Yah man, was supposed to fly to Hawaii in July with some friends but unfortunately we had to postpone the trip (was supposed to fly the Hawaiian 717 too :/) Stay safe out there!
@@thejazzguy13 When the skies open again and you can come, I'd love to help you enjoy your visit. I don't know what your interests are, but I could get you into Bishop Museum for free ($45 savings). I don't do this for everyone. Is there a less public way to stay in contact?
Wow thanks so much for the kind offer! Yah DM me on Twitter or Instagram :)
Oh cool I flew on N947AT from JFK to Minneapolis last year in July the flight was excellent I love B717-200s all day
That shot you got of all the incoming aircraft was pretty amazing
i know those planes with engines in the back dc-9 boeing 727 extremely loud but the md 88 boeing 717 loud but not too loud
what i like about the 717 88s &90s are the 5 abreast seating also my fav seat is 26a and it is surprising quiet
i heard detriot airport has those dots hard for planespotting and filming there, also after deltas md 88s and 90s get retired they will be flying these 717s from omaha to atlanta, why is delta making passengers in omaha fly these old planes to atlanta instead of like the airbus a321 or airbus a220 or boeing 737-800 or 900, but as of now the 717 is old but not ancient but will be 10 years from now
Yah unfortunately they do, but actually not in all areas such as where my plane came into
@@thejazzguy13 what year are you in college
Hi Chris, I had my 1st B717 flight in March this year after restrictions were lifted. Flew on Qantas from Sunshine Coast Queensland down to Melbourne, great ride, however the old girl was looking her age. Still heaps of 717’s flying the Australian skies everyday.....
pretty much all of deltas fleet has seatback screens except the 717 but the 717 doesnt really need them since its just a small about 100 seat regional jet, however the replacement for the 717 (the airbus a220 according to google) has seatback screens, i rode the delta a220-100 and it had seatback screens and "the lew with a view"
seems to be the md-95/boeing 717 engines are boeing's sounds not the md engines you hear
Little insight I flew a 717 down to Orlando back when AirTran still had them from DTW a few yrs back. During a snow storm. It was a nice get away for me that yr. They bv do give a nice ride. I miss AirTran they had some great deals back then.
I always enjoy your trip reviews. I try and fly the 717 if I can. It's the closest thing to the MD 80 and DC-9. Which were my favorite planes. Keep up the great content
BDL 💛💛💛 my home airport!
your videos are still rocking brother Keep them coming whoever gives you a thumbs down must not fly and cannot appreciate all the efforts and everything you do to send these videos Keep rocking
Thanks a lot man! Lol ya that or they're expecting the literal entire flight footage :D
Detriot use to be an old Northwest Airlines hub
70% is clickbait
Yes I’m sure no one wants to watch 104 min of flight but you said FULL FLIGHT
Next time can you at least say it’s trimmed pls
BDL!!! my home airport!! DFW will be my new one starting April 5th. Going to miss BDL but I absolutely love DFW.
thejazzguy13 Aviation, what is that song called as you boarded the train? Detroit metro is my dad's home airport and Gerald R. Ford International is my home airport, but nice trip.
Bradley is basically just Connecticut's version of EWR.
The last mad dog the Boeing 717. LONG LIVE THE MAD DOG.
4:09 Guess that girl on the left is the one who took my job after I was fired lol. I was a horrible jewelry salesman.
Chris. I work in the other Terminal here in DTW at the North Terminal or as there calling it now Evan's Terminal. Too me it's always been the North Terminal
Nice video!!! What is your best suggestions for lunch in that terminal ?
Bring back the whalers lol.
Yes and the nordiques as well. No need for 2 NHL team in Florida. They can get rid of the Phoenix team as well.
Nice music at 1:36 are you using google maps or waze? Can you please make a video about Hartford again?
I totally understand the opening music ! I miss hearing that blare out in Civic Center & Mall !!!
Looks like that took off like a rocket in comparison to the md90 which was the last of the type i flew on back in 2014
Love me some Brass Bonanza. Bring the Whales back!!
From a Kraken fan. Lol.
Former Delta Connection/Comair Flight Attendant here. Still love flying and it will always be in my blood. Love this video, especially because next Saturday I will have my first flight on the 717 from ATL to DAB. Was originally an MD88 (😥), but still essentially a Mad Dog.
I have flewen this Mad Dog-MD88 out of Orlando to Laguardia but the landing it's really loud. The takeoff was extremely scary I almost threw up (🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮)
Love your enthusiasm, jazzguy 13!!!
I flew on a 717 from PIT to FLL back in 2012 when they were with Airtran. It is a very solid craft (Like all of the DC-9 descendants). I kind of wish Southwest had kept them, but I know their thing with the all 737 fleet. Loved seeing it in the air again.
I flew 717 Delta from Orlando to Laguardia. Then 2019 I flew United 737 from Laguardia to Chicago then my first 737 American from Chicago O'Hara to NY Laguardia
Don’t include the waiting and car ride and your all set for a real ride
Nice video, I flewen this out of Orlando to Laguardia ones
DTW is my favorite airport. DFW is number 2.
Hearing Brass Bonanza earns an immediate like from me. I miss the Whalers.
Can’t go wrong with biscoff cookies and ginger ale!
Great report but Delta is KEEPING their B717-200 fleet until another decade so you’ll have a lot of time flying on the B717-200 aircrafts plus their scheduled to get IFE Tv screens onboard their aircrafts so yea they’ll be around for awhile.
We all know why the core city declined??? Maybe you can tell me.
NHL sucks since whalers and nordiques were banned. Go Hartford, this is coming from a Habs fan. I really like this airport and that they fly to Dublin.
I'm a Pens fan and I totally agree. Bringing back the Whalers & Nordiques would be so beneficial to the league!
Didn't KLM use to have 717's in their fleet? Thanks, for the home movie introduction.
No they used Fokker F100s...kinda similar shape...
Fokker 70's retired a few years ago.
If you ever want to fly a Boeing 717 on Delta again, they have a bunch that operate Detroit-Milwaukee everyday.
I’ll be on one next month.
Taken lots of flights out of BDL. On Delta
0:17 I see you’re a man of culture.
I rode a 717 (N960AT) RDU-MSP 3 years ago. Great ride. Unfortunately with the 221s coming on line with all its efficiencies and the 221 seats 109 vs 110 on the 717. It just doesn't make business sense to keep them as the fleet will need to be smaller for the next few years.
The non-hockey fans have no idea what we're talking about.
We hockey nuts understood "Brass Bonanza" playing on a Hartford video, and it got our blood pumping.
Old DC9 gets were noisy too.
Mannnny THANX! It will be my first time flying so I didn’t quite know what to expect:)
It's a great Airport. I live about 40min away. We used to have nonstop to AMS on Northwest which was scrapped after Delta bought it. Currently the longest domestic route we have is BDL-LAX on AA on the 737-8.
Regional Pilots do a better job
I thought that the Canes were going to come out in their old white and green jerseys (1972-1991) at the beginning.
i know dublin has us immigration and customs preclearance which allows passengers to deplane in america not having to go thru immigrations and customs in the u.s.
guess what l live in Connecticut about 10 minutes away from Hartford
Great report! I'm surprised they took this long and a pandemic to retire the MD80s. Some of those things are like 30 years old, its insane! I flew in an MD80 in First Class a few years back. the front is extremely quiet. I have yet to try the 717s, looks like a neat little aircraft.
Thanks man! And yah, it's like a mini MD80 :D Awesome plane!
The music, in the beginning, made it sound like you were very excited to fly the 717! I hope I can hop on one of these birds again ( i have not been on a 717 since Airtran) before they go into retirement. Great Video!
The Hartford and Providence Airports are my favorite airports. Where i am in MA, i can conveniently fly out of both airports including Boston.
Wow. Fantastic report. Beautifully produced. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
on the 90 when we departed we did a power takeoff cause of the winds and the load & RY24 /6 were closed we used almost the entire length
I never flown yet. But when I watch your videos I feel so great... Thinking I am onboard... Great job man
Nice
"Brass Bonanza" says it all for Hartford! Nice touch.
Great flight have you subscribed because I am subscribed!
I hope b717 will stay longer :)
How old are you
I love the Brass Bonanza in the beginning!! Go Canes/Whalers!!
Dang it Jazzy u got my mouth watering with that chowder of yours
😂 It was pretty good chowda!
@@thejazzguy13 I could tell lol
JaweaiAqii
I got a flight on a delta 717 coming up in premium is it decent?
jawrai apia
Music sounds like something NFL Films used in the 70's and 80's on films whenever a team won something big.
Haha wrong sport but right era! It was the now defunct NHL Hartford Whaler's theme song!
The chefs that bake those Delta cookies hats off to them it must NOT be easy!!
8:17
I think I might have been on that Dublin arrival if this was in January with the limited winter schedule. This was very similar weather to when we landed.
Well if you flew in January 9th then you were on it!
The music at the beginning of the video who does that song
Very nice trip report as always!!
Thanks a lot man!
thank you for a great video. as a lifetime ct guy, Brass Bonanza and the scenes around Ct bring back memories of a great time in Ct
Glad you enjoyed! :)
Great video man! I hope to fly on one before they are retired
Well done with the Brass Bonanza!
I feel like ginger ale and the biscoff is the classic og flight choice of refreshment
Lol I usually get these things almost every time :D
When was this flight actually
Man, Great Video
I loved the music. What is the name of it?
"Brass Bonanza' by Jack Say. it was the official music of the NHL hockey team The Hartford Whalers.
I love the music!
love the music!
Goal!!!!
