Crazy how people can't think for one second about how there are no indicators in this video that it was filmed during quarantine. It's busy in the airports, you're flying internationally on a FULL flight and there are no masks or stations to check for symptoms. It isn't hard to figure out it was pre-recorded. People just love to be angry and rage at others. I always love your videos Noel. I always fly United in the States but have yet to try this business class. Seems quite nice so I'm hoping when/if I can fly again I can check it out for myself. Thank you for the great content.
You are not good viewer , he have been said before he do all those flying for short time and he montage them and share them for separated time dore all the year
8:21 "I sucked on some wine and chewed on me nuts as we crossed into canada" omfg I died when I herd you say that best line ever!!! Yes I have the humor of a little kid lol
Great video man! I love the 767 and it’s good to see that United has given them some love! The roar of that plane will never get old! I just hope they don’t get retired because of the virus
@@lightwalker9879 Ironically,Aussies seem to go on strike at the rate Americans have mass shootings or weight problems.Flying from Syd-Melb,catering was on strike.Melb-Adelaide they were on strike again.No big deal.I think we Yanks should strike more.So many are complacent,or apparently brainwashed by corporations.
I live in Denver. Since Denver is a major United hub I pretty much have to fly United. I am so happy with Polaris Class. You're right about that memory foam pillow. Polaris is definitely the best business class for getting sleep on a flight. I've always had trouble sleeping on planes but not in Polaris class. It took a couple years after they introduced Polaris Class to renovate all the lounges. I'm glad they have finally completed the lounges. The lounges are among the best.
My penultimate long haul flight before Rona Times was on a United 787-10 in regular economy in February 2020 from JFK to CDG, and I think that was the best economy product I have flown on transatlantic. It was so good, I have to admit.. it is 100% worth the risk of being dragged indignantly off the plane because it was overbooked.
What a gorgeous sunset... I think this is perhaps the most photogenic video of yours I have had the pleasure of watching (appx 40+). I just love that tunnel at O'Hare. I have noticed many U.S. airports are in the upgrade process over the couple of years.
We had a chance to fly United first class.....Honolulu - Las Vegas.....was very impressed with the seat comfort! Enjoyed it very much and think it's the BEST!!....food was ok/rice hard.... and served BENTO STYLE....
I’ve flown United internationally since before Polaris business class. Back then I would buy an economy ticket then upgrade. Now I just buy an international business/first ticket outright. As a matter of fact, because my trip to the UK and Germany last May was canceled by COVID, I have a business class voucher to use. Spot on about the Polaris lounges much nicer now. United domestic lounges are crap. However, the Asians, in general, still have the better lounges. Also, ANZ in Sidney, Australia is a great lounge. Qantas lounges are very good especially, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. There I usually “steal” a couple of Aussie beers at the lounge on my way home to the USA. Great video. Cheers.
Love United Polaris business class and agree the lounge at the C Gates at ORD is fantastic . Great view of the apron. Many thanks for another great vid.
Great vlog as always! Like you the 76 has a special place in my heart. The 74 was your first love, and the break up still hurts! Lol! Have you flown the -100 and -200? They have there charm. Stay safe, and be safe my friend!
I cant wait till we can all fly again. I always look forward to your vids. I didnt know you had a private pilot licence. I am learning slowly, got 2 hours so far so a long way to go . Its very expensive
I think Polaris offers (for the most part) a fantastic hard product and the food improvement has been noticeable. In fact, all classes on the refurbished 763 are fantastic. The 767-300 is surprisingly fuel efficient for being so old and I honestly hope that United picks up a few tails from Delta and American as they ditch theirs. With lower demand for the next few years, the 767 and 787 seem to be “right-sized” versus 77Ws.
United is horrible! I’m currently a Premier Platinum member in their frequent flyer program and can’t wait to use all my points so I can stop flying with them. The way I have been treated by them is appalling. I’m sure my experience is not unique. I hope they go out of business. They do NOT deserve a tax payer bailout.
@@jackiebenjamin642 : Really? I have flown them in First and Business class, essentially on the Washington-Paris route, and they have been absolutely outstanding. Now, I haven't tried the coach class, perhaps that's what people mean when they say that UA is awful.
Yasmin Barry Maybe you should traveling coach to get the full experience. I’ve flown First and Business with them, mostly domestic, and their service in those cabins pales in comparison to other carriers.
Ah, OK. I guess flying international and domestic are two different things. But I do believe you (that their performance is not as good as their competitors', on those domestic lines. What a pity!)
Great video, I watched a video on the same service from Narito to LA.... yours is much better the way you present it. I liked the way you dressed in a nice polo shirt, I think when riding in Business it is great to dress nicely.
I remember UA used to be in Term 2 and occupied Concourses E & F during all of the construction of B & C. When concourses B & C were semi-opened E&F were still being used but given up and occupied by I don't which airline took it over that point. My dad thought it was a pain in neck getting to and from the gates from the tkt counters everyday while work there.
United is still in Term 2, and still in E/F, but its now all United express flights over there, which are the small planes lyk the CRJ 200/550/700s. There mainline flights are in B, C with all the 737s, and Airbus 319/320s, and few wide body gates with the 767-777s. Plus gates at T5 international.
Another outstanding TR Noel. I've never ever flown over Canada heading back to the UK in the light...I've flown from LAX probably 18 times and other parts of America probably 6 times...always winter time.
I know United gets a lot of hate, some deserved most not, but in the twenty years I've been flying I've flown nearly all of it on United or Continental. And nearly every flight has been great. The horror stories I've had have been nearly all on American, with a few on Delta. This stupid virus... I can't wait to get back in the air.
I agree. Media played a big part with that doctor that was beaten out of the flight and wasn't even the United people doing that. It was airport security. But they unfairly took the heat from it even though it wasnt United employees that dragged and beat him out.
Welcome back Noel !! Great views on take off !! Chewed on your nuts....sounds painful !! Hope they were warm !! Love the views landing at Heathrow !! Magnificent !! Pretty good flight Noel for an airline that seems to attract " different " reviews !! Well done again mate and trust you and the family are coping well with the current mess we find ourselves in !! Take care !!
"A reclusive hermit like me" Think Dan (Gaston) would say the opposite from whenever he's met you! Another great video, pity your mic packed up! Hope we'll all be flying again soon, though car and train trips beckon for me first of all!
So the pilot at the beginning of United’s safety video I’ve met him before on a flight last summer and I’ve flown with United a few times since the safety video was out and I’m just realizing it.
Hey Noel would you ever consider trying out Royal Brunei business class from heathrow, I did the trip last year and I really enjoyed. I would like to see your thoughts
You mention how old the aircraft is (almost 20), but that one is actually a rare NEWER -300ER. The vast majority are 28-29 years old, delivered in 1991-1992. They all have Polaris, and will be UA’s only aircraft to wear 5 different liveries. Some have already been repainted into their 5th UA livery
I have priority pass through my credit card and have access to many different lounges around the world. So far Seattle’s The Club at Sea and Alaska Lounge are exceptional
Noel, when was this flight? United has improved their service offerings the past couple of years. Haven’t flown them yet on international flights but have flown them to Hawaii several times. And the crew has always been the best part.
Wow that boarding "greeting" from every crew member you passed perfectly illustrates my past experiences with United's service in general. I now avoid them at all costs
I am always amazed when I get off a plane and see the mess other passengers leave around their seats. I would hate to go to their houses if that's how they live. Some people are real slobs on a plane, and I don't just mean in Economy, Business Class is normally the worst.
More honesty and transparency? These videos are often criticised for being as honest and transparent so not sure how you can ask for more? Please do let me know where you feel it wasn’t honest or transparent- Rach
exactly my thoughts, cos if Noel is spreading a plague around the world just to get you tube views then if he and all his loved ones die as a result, Reap what you sow
tibbles cat do you watch the other videos. I’m guessing not because you can easily follow his journey from U.K. back to U.K. from last couple of months so it would be obvious these were filmed before lockdowns occured
I don't know if it's "the best" and all that. However, it's a huge improvement over their previous business class for sure. I took a round trip from Washington IAD to Tokyo NRT about a year or so back now on one of their 777-200's that had the new business class. Used it on both flights. As far as the seat and setup goes, it's really nice. Would definitely give it the thumbs up to anyone who has the chance to use it.
I'm still a little surprised some lounges don't offer sleeping pods you can pay extra to sleep in, particularly if you have a moderate layover (say 3-6 hours). Even if they charged say $30 or $50 for 4 hours I think many people would go for that just to grab a few hour nap between flights. My guess is they probably completely gutted that 767's interior and that all you see is bsaically new(ish) interior (panels, seats, etc). Probably only the loo and structure (you don't see) is what remains of the original aircraft.
United lounge I went there for the first time on my first and only international flight from Houston (KIAH) to Sydney (YSSY) and that was the best lounge I have ever seen and the best seat

I also died laughing 😅
@@arynchadha3369 : +1

Ha Ha, I thought the exact same thing LMAO!!
😂😂😂 I had a laugh at that as well!
I nearly spat my drink out when he said that! LOL!!
LMAOOO
HAHAH LOL
Haha wow . Just as something interesting I actually was part of the team that assembled those seats :)
Hello Noel,
I love this United Boeing 767 Polaris Business Class. This is the perfect business class seats for Boeing 767. Just love it. ❤️
Great video man! I love the 767 and it’s good to see that United has given them some love! The roar of that plane will never get old! I just hope they don’t get retired because of the virus
Sadly, they might retire the 767-400 though
[Blank] I think United is renovating the 767s right now.
NateLeech United has only retired 11 planes during the virus and they were all 757-200s.
Polaris lounges are by far the best I’ve visited here in the States. Visited the one in SFO and was very impressed.
A lovely complimentary bottle of Peckham spring water!
I don’t know if Polaris is the best US Business Class, but it definitely it a major improvement over United’s old product.
It is Emerits Sorry for my spelling
@@raphaelk.991 Emirates is not a US carrier
Have you seen the new Delta One suites?
We are waiting for your suggestion don leave us hanging
No it isn’t at all. UA had F before; Polaris is just business
It's great to see that even with the lock down Noel's channel is consistent and we still get amazing content to watch every Saturday
Was this during lockdown though, looks like footage from an earlier flight pre-covid. No masks etc... at all.
No I don't think so!
My point was that it's nice that we get uploads every week
That view of London at 11:33 WOW!!! :)
The pilot on arrival sounded like an Australian.
2:58 sounded like Aussy cabin crew too...
Don’t think that was the pilot
Lot of a aviation staff left Australia during the pilot strike.
It sounds like the male cabin crew who greeted him upon boarding was an Aussie, and that’s who we heard upon landing.
@@lightwalker9879 Ironically,Aussies seem to go on strike at the rate Americans have mass shootings or weight problems.Flying from Syd-Melb,catering was on strike.Melb-Adelaide they were on strike again.No big deal.I think we Yanks should strike more.So many are complacent,or apparently brainwashed by corporations.

I agree the Polaris amenity kit is a nice one!
Great vid again Noel, please keep uploading during these crazy times of lockdown, it’s nice to be reminded of what it’s like to fly 👍
What a gorgeous sunset... I think this is perhaps the most photogenic video of yours I have had the pleasure of watching (appx 40+). I just love that tunnel at O'Hare. I have noticed many U.S. airports are in the upgrade process over the couple of years.

Stay safe Noel and all inflight video fans :)

“Oh it’s that cool tunnel again, yay!” That one made me laugh, thanks for another great review!

I cant wait till we can all fly again. I always look forward to your vids. I didnt know you had a private pilot licence. I am learning slowly, got 2 hours so far so a long way to go . Its very expensive
Love the herringbone layout. Its my fav.
Thank you for your service!
Fun video as usual!!👏👏😁😍. That captain sounded like a golf announcer. ✈✈😆
Sunday Riley?! That's pretty classic being that a 4 oz jar of their facial lotion is like $80 or something at Sephora! You lucky dog you!
Great Airborne, great Landing! great video, only 15 min with all necesary info!
Can't wait for our trip in May using Polaris
Oh I miss flying 😩 Great video, thanks for sharing!
A very nicely presented video. Good audio and this chap is rather good at these vids.
I love the 767! My second favorite after the 747
United is keeping it up 🇺🇸💪🏻
`'I sat back and chewed on my nuts", got a childish giggle out of me... lol. Great TR, thanks Noel.
First time I've seen one of your reviews. I like the format and the style!

United has certainly done a lot to improve its image, Cannot be far off the best now.
The best at what or against whom? Certainly not a top 15 airline.

Thanks for the video. Stay safe.
Enjoyed the video. The view over London was fantastic. The person who did the announcement, sounded British or Oz

The stewardess scratching her neck as you boarded could not have looked less welcoming if she tried 🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈 but great video !!
I love watching you plus you have a fabulous sense of humour
I seem to be watching your channel all night it's good thankyou
💜
“Sucked on my wine and chewed on my nuts” this killed me
That shot at 8:40 looks like you're in space!
The SFO Polaris lounge is the best for sure
Printing the flight particulars is helpful, including the date.
Another outstanding TR Noel. I've never ever flown over Canada heading back to the UK in the light...I've flown from LAX probably 18 times and other parts of America probably 6 times...always winter time.
That safety video gives me nightmares
Great video as always Noel. Got to love the 767! It’s shame they probably won’t survive post Covid19.
so far so good!
My favorite airport lounge is the united polaris lounge in newark New Jersey
That's a weird taxi for your return to home. I thought those taxi with the names on their paper/tablet are something only for tourist to their hotels.
Pre-booked that’s all.
Gorgeous business class.
I know United gets a lot of hate, some deserved most not, but in the twenty years I've been flying I've flown nearly all of it on United or Continental. And nearly every flight has been great.

0:48 that is an almost identical layout to New Orelans. Almost mall like!
Hope your safe noel, the videos are quality
San Francisco’s United Polaris lounge check out Sam Chui review of it. It looks great and the staff loved working there.
So the pilot at the beginning of United’s safety video I’ve met him before on a flight last summer and I’ve flown with United a few times since the safety video was out and I’m just realizing it.
You really do get great shots of everything, thanks Noel 👍
The star alliance lounge in Bradley at LAX in my opinion is the best lounge in the US.
Hey Noel would you ever consider trying out Royal Brunei business class from heathrow, I did the trip last year and I really enjoyed. I would like to see your thoughts
weird flex but ok
lovely flight i enjoyed it greetings
Oh! That memory foam pillow sounds good! 💤
Delta Crown Club in Atlanta, Orlando and Minneapolis although all were fantastic
Great vlog Noel, my favourite US International lounge has to be the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse at SFO, hope it survives
How many videos have you got left to upload before you run out due to the current crisis?
Yesterday, I went planespotting at Ohare
No ice cream sundaes? They were the highlight of United biz first to Honolulu! 3 years ago
I always enjoy your videos Noel. Thanks mate
I might sound crazy, but O’Hare is my favorite airport.
It's massive but easier to get around in than Newark is.
Denver above all. But, ohare is pretty easy to get around, and I do love the tunnel as well.
You mention how old the aircraft is (almost 20), but that one is actually a rare NEWER -300ER. The vast majority are 28-29 years old, delivered in 1991-1992. They all have Polaris, and will be UA’s only aircraft to wear 5 different liveries. Some have already been repainted into their 5th UA livery
Unites 767 is by far one of the prettiest planes.
I have priority pass through my credit card and have access to many different lounges around the world. So far Seattle’s The Club at Sea and Alaska Lounge are exceptional

Early March
I can't see the words Southern Air without the Ray Stevens song playing in my head. (About 3 minutes in)
FA's kinda unprofessional 🤨
Thanks for sharing, and great clips as always!
Nothing like a bit of Noel from Chez Vegas to get the day going
Gotta love these vids :) thanks for making my day
Like the prophetic nature of the boarding gate number 😁
Wow that boarding "greeting" from every crew member you passed perfectly illustrates my past experiences with United's service in general. I now avoid them at all costs
That literally happens on every airline everywhere
@@seccleston_ Not on the airlines I fly on!
I swear I was thinking the same thing.
They couldn't have looked less interested if they tried
That's funny, I've never had a problem with greetings or unfriendly crews. I've flown about every airline there is. Hmmm
I am always amazed when I get off a plane and see the mess other passengers leave around their seats. I would hate to go to their houses if that's how they live. Some people are real slobs on a plane, and I don't just mean in Economy, Business Class is normally the worst.

Might be nice if you included when the video was filmed. That might avoid some confusion and give more context.

My favorite lounge in the US is the One World First Class lounge at LAX in the international terminal.
My favourite lounge is the USA is the LH Lounge at JFK
That sounded like an Australian accent on the arrival announcement just after arrival. Wouldn't have expected that on a United flight.
I'm still a little surprised some lounges don't offer sleeping pods you can pay extra to sleep in, particularly if you have a moderate layover (say 3-6 hours). Even if they charged say $30 or $50 for 4 hours I think many people would go for that just to grab a few hour nap between flights.
My guess is they probably completely gutted that 767's interior and that all you see is bsaically new(ish) interior (panels, seats, etc). Probably only the loo and structure (you don't see) is what remains of the original aircraft.
Yo that chicken dish looked amazing
United lounge I went there for the first time on my first and only international flight from Houston (KIAH) to Sydney (YSSY) and that was the best lounge I have ever seen and the best seat
