Oh my goodness, I flew with you a few months ago. I was your purser. I had no idea you have a channel. You are such a nice captain. These days, you never know what you are gonna get. You were so professional and kind. Thank you. I love seeing such a family man, kind and efficient with briefing. I’m definitely going to subscribe. My man loves when I fly with a captain I feel safe flying with. Thank you
I just subscribed to the channel. Currently I’m a police officer in the Phoenix area but looking to follow my dream of becoming a commercial major airline pilot. I’m gonna be 36 in august and decided to take the chance! Any thoughts or feedback captain would be greatly appreciated!
Get signed up for a flight school ASAP! Phoenix has lots of great flight schools. Just make sure that you can afford the training, and DO YOUR RESEARCH!!
My father was a United Airlines Captain, James M. Hykes 1960-1994. He loved his 34 year career with United..I watch these in honor of him and it helps me with my grief of his passing. Thank you!💙🛫
My condolences to you and your family. I am sure he was a great man and he had a great career and was able to see the world and live life to the fullest. Just remember that most people don't get that chance. May his soul rest in peace 🙏🏽
Never stop doing these kinds of videos!!! My goal is to make it to the airlines and these videos inspire me everyday to work towards my goals, thank you Paul!
@@Bigsky1991 aviation is not going anywhere. IF anything it MIGHT transition to Unmanned but there will always be a demand for pilots. Luckily, i have my FAA Part 107 Unmanned license, but I want to stick to the manned side
The Buzz Aldrin story reminds me of when I was working a commercial booth at Oshkosh. It was slow on the last day of the show. A distinguished looking gentleman stopped by, curious about our satellite communications product. For about twenty minutes we had a very nice conversation about the satellite business. I never let on that I knew who he was. He never let on that he knew I knew who he was. No selfies, no autographs, just a very nice conversation with the last man to walk on the moon.
I've been a United 1K for 20 years and have never seen such an honest insight into the airline and the life of the airline's so important employees. LOVE your videos; keep it up.
Similar here, it is truly so edifying as a frequent UA flyer to hear life is well for those to whom we entrust our lives regularly as a part of this life on earth (or a bit above it).
I am from Newark, I watched all your great content and then it hit me when I heard your cockpit radio voice! Your content, flight experience and service has been greatly appreciated by all of us! Anyone from Newark knows this voice your getting home! I remember flying him a few times and back then he fought some rough ass turbulence with skill and made us all feel safe. You make great content captain!
I rarely comment on videos, but this video style is amazing! I imagine it takes endless hours planning, filming and editing for this type of professional video. Thank you, and I hope you enjoyed your well-earned vacation. Cheers!
Canadian pilots wife here.Watching this reminds me so much when hubby had long commutes and hotel expenses. So glad he retired recently. As you said,Living where you want to, and still loving your job,being able to see so much of the world,Is Awesome! Really enjoyed your video. Cheers from B.C. Canada
That quote you said at the end “Everything comes at a cost”. That really hit me. I’m a few weeks away from my private pilot checkride with the end goal of stepping foot into a United Airlines cockpit one day. Your videos are always so inspirational and is helping me move forward in my flight training to one day, hopefully, fly side by side with you. Everything comes at a cost and even though flight training is really expensive and a huge financial burden, I know it will be worth it when we both fly together. Thank you so much for being one of the reasons for achieving my dreams and I hope to meet you in person soon. I’m a ramp agent on the United ramp in Fort Myers Florida and I love to travel. I’m always flying through Newark and it’s like my second home. I hope to meet you in person in the near future. Thank you so much for everything you do and inspiring us by just being you.
It's nice to see someone talking about the realities of the job. Commuting is an essential part of the equation for so many pilots in order to make the job work, yet it's at the least a major pain, and very often a nightmare when weather, delays, or full flights prevent you from getting home and seeing your family. It's not something that should be taken lightly, but certainly a perk of the job....because who would ever want to live in Newark, NJ!
Your videos are getting better and better. I love the combo of actually showing the layovers, as well as insights into airline schedules and lifestyle, in the cockpit, and even the passenger briefing. I'm hoping to go to the airlines soon after the military, and I love these videos.
Great job giving that man the opportunity to converse with you despite how tired you were. Most of the greatest humble personalities have no ego so they tend to appear as “normal” people. Buzz Aldrin is a great example of a person who has achieved greatness, but will always consider himself a student.
Loved the video man. Thank you! My wife is a UA Flight Attendant, LAX based. She used to fly a lot of LAX-EWR before covid but since she went back to work post covid, she is able to hold LAX-Hawaii pretty consistently so that's what she's mostly doing. Keep up the good work!
You are next to an impossible man, they do not make your kind anymore. You got up early Iron your clothes, with all your accomplishments and all the responsibilities you signed up for. You squeezed in some meaningful and touching personal moments into the life of a commercial airline Capitan. You are indeed an inspiration not just to pilots, to humans. What a class act of a man. Nothing but the best of wishes to you sir and you deserve every one of those 18days off.
Loved the Buzz Aldrin story. In December 2005 there was a dedication ceremony at Santa Monica Airport of the Douglas DC-3 mounted on a pole. Major aviation figures were to be there including Bob Hoover and Buzz. I figured it would be one of my best opportunities of all time, to meet Buzz. Brought along an authentically signed photo of Neil Armstrong I had purchased at Long Beach flea. Finally got the courage to walk up to seated Buzz and introduce myself. Clumsily. Showed him photo of Armstrong and asked "Do you know this guy"? He laughed. Then I mumbled unsteadily, "Buzz would you mind signing this TO ME, on the backing? It's not for sale, ever, will be a family heirloom" I nervously gushed. He was very gracious and signed with the date and place AND, most interestingly, wrote "103rd anniversary of Kitty Hawk". He didn't have to do that. And charmingly, it was actually the 102nd anniversary!! Deceased astronaut Virgil "Gus" Grissom's nephew was there and he filmed my meeting with Buzz. Wow, what a day. I learned to fly in Miami in 1978 a 23, got my private ticket in a 152 and after 94 hours total in the log book hung it all up as it got to be an expensive pastime. In 1980 the pilot demand/hiring situation was not anything like it is now or perhaps I would have gone the airline pilot route. The times were different. Envious of you Paul, except for the constant very early mornings that pilots and flight attendants both seem to accept as a major part of their lives. As others on here have mentioned, your constant positive attitude, admirable general curiosity about the physical world, and genuine friendliness towards all, despite the difficulties of the job, are amazing to watch. I much enjoy your videos.
Currently at 800 out of my 1500 and these videos keep me extremely excited for the future and helps me push through the grind of time building. Really appreciate it!! ✈✈
No showboating or any other nonrealistic stuff that unfortunately is associated these days with Aviation. One of the good things about your content is that you tell the truth i.e pro's and cons of commuting. I hope to see you on the line sometime. Much respect from a MD-11 driver! Be good dude🤙🏽
Thank you for sharing a great perspective of your life as a Pilot! I have a friend who is also a Captain (Senior) for our Countries (Canada) largest airline. He is not married for a lot of the reasons you have shared. My friend has said many a times, you have to really find the right Woman and partner who understands the life of a Pilot to be with. Stay well and be safe!
Thanks for an eye opening breakdown of your Days as a Pilot. I have occasionally awakened early but your Schedule is quite often. Thanks for your sacrifices. 👍🙏
I work for united on the ramp here in denver ive seen you around 757 guy 😊its a pleasure to be apart of your channel my son is a pilot for a major air carrier as well thank you for your hard work
This is one of my new favorite channels! My end goal is to be an airline pilot as I’m currently working on my commercial and every time I lose motivation, I come watch one of your videos!
love your channel Paul! I am a corporate pilot in MMU close to EWR, nice to see the differences between our jobs, although I know the airline world as I started my career there. Keep the great videos!
Paul, I love your videos. Thanks for taking us along on your trips. My wife is an FA based in EWR. I occasionally go with her on her trips and hope to meet you some day.
Just discovered your a channel these past days and been obsessed with your videos and your journeys. As someone who love aviation I’m loving the content and makes me even more jealous that you get to be a pilot for a commercial airline.
There you are,I was just thinking hey haven’t seen a video from you in a bit. Just love your content and personality. I am afraid of flying but feel at ease about it whenever I watch your videos. Your style of storytelling is super warm and genuine. Thanks so much for sharing it with us ❤.
1. Awesome, Awesome work! 👍👍 2. Buzz Aldrin?!?! Are you kidding me? How did that not come up while you were trying to choke me out with your Viking thighs? 3. Warm cup of soup.. super sweet. Thank you.. Did chatGPT write that for you? 😉😂
I stumbled upon this video as a lover of aviation and boy am I so pleased! Thank you so much for bringing a smile to my face. I've been going through a lot of stress and mental strain, and your videos have cooled me down. Goodluck to you and your family. You're the best.
First, Before I forget this. You are a master of life. I am very proud of you and your family. You are doing a great job in life of everything. You have encouragement me to continue my journey of obtaining my Private Pilot license and other rating that I want to get. My ultimate goal in Aviation to become a first officer for the regionals airlines. Thank you brother!

Cool video as always Paul! It's good to see that even when you're flying and "working" you are still engaging in life, meeting people, exercising and checking out interesting places!! I love it! You're super cool! Thank you for sharing.👏👏👏👏👏👍
Hi Paul. I’ve watched a lot of your videos and you’ve inspired and motivated me to pursue my aspiration to become an airline pilot. Thank you for providing quality and content and keep them coming!
Awesome video as usual, definitely correct statement there's such a blessing being able live where you want and doing a wonderful career that you enjoy. Blue skies & Tailwinds 🤜🏾🤛🏻
This video really solidified what I want to be in the future. I was on the fence on whether I should become a pilot or doctor, and even though commuting might look like a pain I know I would enjoy every single aspect of being a pilot! Thanks for the videos!
Ha-interesting! I was in the same position, but went down the medicine path. Definitely not as much adventure in medicine as in the airlines, but generally speaking (non-US here) you have a lot of say in what specialty you want to end up in and where you live. And attending conferences take you around the world instead! 😂 best wishes in what you end up choosing
Hi Captain Paul👋🏼I really enjoy all your videos…you have such a positive attitude and I truly appreciate your viewpoint and talent for capturing the beauty of the places you go. Thank you for bringing us along with you! Safe travels to you, always! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕💕💕
I am in ground school for Skywest. After a grueling week getting ready for week two feeling defeated LOL. This video was what I needed. Very inspiring!!
Great video -- I'm signed up! I'm a former private pilot with an instrument rating, so I love everything about flying! It's really interesting, the lives of pilots and flight attendants -- something quite different!
Wow Paul! Your videos getting more amazing every time. All the work you put into them does not go unnoticed! Not only are you inspiring aspiring pilots like Jacklyn, you also inspire pilots like me who have been doing the job for over 27 years! The quality of your videos combined with your genuine insights bring a beautiful light into what we do. Thank you for providing me with such gratefulness for what we do! From your biggest fan! 🙌🏼
Hi Paul, Yet again an amazing vlog. Absolutely love when you upload a new vlog as I know it’s going to be fantastic. Please keep them coming. Now United are flying from SFO to BNE where I live would love to show you around my neck of the woods downunder. I think you would enjoy yourself. Stay safe mate.
Great and mind-blowing content, I admired your family-work-life- balance lifestyle. I always wanted to be a pilot, but the war in my mother land (Sierra Leone) turned my dream upside down, resulting in me doing me something else..... Keep the great work and keep the great content coming.
Great video! As a dispatcher it is always fun and enlightening to see what y’all really do on your trips and everything involved in that. 20:41 Proof positive that math skills are not needed for you to fly.
Good story about Buzz...had you only known who he was, I'm sure that conversation would have been entirely different. Every time I'm on a flight and I see a pilot commuting, I never talk to him/her because I know that they are tired and need rest. But, as a guy that drives Cessna 172 on the weekends, I will always be curious about your experiences flying the 757 rocketship.
Hey Capt., new subscriber here from IAH area. Great to see this channel and can't wait to dive into more of your videos. Very good friend of mine is a Triple Seven Captain for you guys based at EWR also, he loves his commuting as well, well most of the time. 😄
This video is so inspiring for me I have already had a passion for flying planes ever since I was six years old when I was 10 years old I got to fly an airplane because it was just me and the pilot but I just wanted to say keep up the great videos
You had me at Jiu Jitsu. I also fly for work and train when I can. I love it... but I feel like I'm starting over every time coming back after trips. (It's difficult to have a pilot/ jiu jitsu life) Good on you for getting after it in the middle of a rotation!
@@Payton_oh Cool man. It’s tough to train consistently and be a pilot. I fly charter so it’s definitely a challenge. I also roll super chill because of the physical requirements of the job/ needing all limbs to be working 100%, can’t have concussions, etc. I almost quit Jiu Jitsu because of these things. But then realized I’d rather roll chill, inconsistently, and be quick to tap, then not train at all. As far as flying goes- Getting to the “good career flying” part is tough. I’d consider myself a seasoned pilot. But I’m a 2 year while belt. And I think flying is similar to Jiu Jitsu- Keep going past the point where everybody else would quit and push through the setbacks and discouraging times. Keep your eye on the end goal. There are no unreasonable goals… only unreasonable timelines. Everybody is hiring right now, so you’re in a good spot. But even if things turn, if you love it, keep going. I really can’t speak for the Jiu Jitsu thing. But as far as learning to fly… again similar to jiu jitsu- Enjoy the process, study, drill, practice flows, realize discouragement is a healthy part of the process, swallow your pride, keep your ego in check, backseat flights if you can. Take charge of your own training/ learning. Don’t expect everybody to spoon feed you. Breathe. Just. Keep. Going.
Love your positivity, passion and drive! Would love to connect with you 1 day to hear your story! The stories we have are impactful and yours are always positive! Keep inspiring! Flying to Frankfurt from Denver in March, maybe you’ll be our pilot. :)
This was really eye opening for me. As an aspiring pilot I was always worried about the concept of only being limited to the airliners or operations around my living area, but seeing that some people work for ops from the other side of the world sort of opens my options
i grew up in Long Beach, and my mom and dad took me to see the Dominator about 1 week after it grounded. The grain onboard was off loaded on the "floor" of Long Beach Port, where all the local birds ate well and became obese. Over 60 years ago.
Absolutely love these videos man this has inspired me to become an airline pilot especially since you fly for my favourite airline. Any tips you could recommend for a student pilot starting off brand new?
Did you happen to ID your Co-pilot? Jeez, he looked like he just graduated from High School! lol! I enjoyed this video. Clearly you have the right laid back personality and disposition for your career. Your love of your career and life really comes across in your videos. Well done!
I am so glad to discover this channel! You honestly are a humorous man and I absolutely love United Airlines. I’ll be flying United from BOS-ORD in July and I hit the subscribe button as soon as I started watching

Your videos truly bring me a sense of comfort and help me immensely with my fear of flying. Keep doing what you do. Thank you!
Awesome video as usual, definitely correct statement there's such a blessing being able live where you want and doing a wonderful career that you enjoy.

I really enjoyed your video, great editing + storyline , and super entertaining + informative.
This video really solidified what I want to be in the future. I was on the fence on whether I should become a pilot or doctor, and even though commuting might look like a pain I know I would enjoy every single aspect of being a pilot! Thanks for the videos!
Just move to base, problem solved! As a doctor you may face relocation as well, can't commute to a hospital job!
Ha-interesting! I was in the same position, but went down the medicine path. Definitely not as much adventure in medicine as in the airlines, but generally speaking (non-US here) you have a lot of say in what specialty you want to end up in and where you live. And attending conferences take you around the world instead! 😂 best wishes in what you end up choosing
This is so inspiring, I have always loved the 75. You really are living life to the best. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Hi Captain Paul👋🏼I really enjoy all your videos…you have such a positive attitude and I truly appreciate your viewpoint and talent for capturing the beauty of the places you go. Thank you for bringing us along with you! Safe travels to you, always! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕💕💕
Super cool video! Cool to see behind the scenes. Love the bloopers! Love Chevy! ❤️
I am in ground school for Skywest. After a grueling week getting ready for week two feeling defeated LOL. This video was what I needed. Very inspiring!!
How did it go in training?
@@gringoloco8576 Skywest has the best training. It went awesome! Now I am flying for a major airline.
Yeah, how about an update?
Amazing Buzz story! Thank you so much for sharing this. Your delivery was perfect and I laughed. I love Apollo history and the men of Apollo so much.
Just discovered your channel. Hope you do a lot more of this style video. Your production quality is insane for someone not formally trained. Bravo.
You just seem like such a sincerely nice guy. Bless your heart. Fly safe. 🙏🏻
Great video -- I'm signed up! I'm a former private pilot with an instrument rating, so I love everything about flying! It's really interesting, the lives of pilots and flight attendants -- something quite different!
I just found you via shorts and am impressed! Your storytelling is amazing 🎉
Thank you for sharing your adventures.
Amazing, inspiring video! Thank You for this masterpiece! 😊
Also, the gig at 9:55 got me 😂
Gotta love our snow storms 🤣 this was interesting to watch the behind the scenes of a pilot. Thank you!
Wow Paul! Your videos getting more amazing every time. All the work you put into them does not go unnoticed!
Not only are you inspiring aspiring pilots like Jacklyn, you also inspire pilots like me who have been doing the job for over 27 years!
The quality of your videos combined with your genuine insights bring a beautiful light into what we do.
Thank you for providing me with such gratefulness for what we do!
From your biggest fan! 🙌🏼
Hi Paul, Yet again an amazing vlog. Absolutely love when you upload a new vlog as I know it’s going to be fantastic. Please keep them coming. Now United are flying from SFO to BNE where I live would love to show you around my neck of the woods downunder. I think you would enjoy yourself. Stay safe mate.
This is incredibly well done, love your videos!
Thank you for bringing us along on your journeys.
Great and mind-blowing content, I admired your family-work-life- balance lifestyle.
I always wanted to be a pilot, but the war in my mother land (Sierra Leone) turned my dream upside down, resulting in me doing me something else.....
Keep the great work and keep the great content coming.
Very nice video, Paul! Always happy landings and best regards from Germany 🤗
Great video! As a dispatcher it is always fun and enlightening to see what y’all really do on your trips and everything involved in that.
20:41 Proof positive that math skills are not needed for you to fly.
Haha!!
Another great video Paul. So entertaining and especially like the bloopers. Stay safe ✈😃
Thanks for another great video. The topic is super interesting
Love your videos. They are really well done and made with passion. Thank you.
Good story about Buzz...had you only known who he was, I'm sure that conversation would have been entirely different. Every time I'm on a flight and I see a pilot commuting, I never talk to him/her because I know that they are tired and need rest. But, as a guy that drives Cessna 172 on the weekends, I will always be curious about your experiences flying the 757 rocketship.
Hey Capt., new subscriber here from IAH area. Great to see this channel and can't wait to dive into more of your videos. Very good friend of mine is a Triple Seven Captain for you guys based at EWR also, he loves his commuting as well, well most of the time. 😄
This video is so inspiring for me I have already had a passion for flying planes ever since I was six years old when I was 10 years old I got to fly an airplane because it was just me and the pilot but I just wanted to say keep up the great videos
Really enjoyed watching that. Thank you. Safe adventures..
You had me at Jiu Jitsu. I also fly for work and train when I can. I love it... but I feel like I'm starting over every time coming back after trips. (It's difficult to have a pilot/ jiu jitsu life) Good on you for getting after it in the middle of a rotation!
Just started flight school, also just got my blue belt and I’m feeling like I’m going to lose it all on my journey to be an airline pilot 😅
@@Payton_oh Cool man. It’s tough to train consistently and be a pilot. I fly charter so it’s definitely a challenge. I also roll super chill because of the physical requirements of the job/ needing all limbs to be working 100%, can’t have concussions, etc.
I almost quit Jiu Jitsu because of these things. But then realized I’d rather roll chill, inconsistently, and be quick to tap, then not train at all.
As far as flying goes- Getting to the “good career flying” part is tough. I’d consider myself a seasoned pilot. But I’m a 2 year while belt. And I think flying is similar to Jiu Jitsu- Keep going past the point where everybody else would quit and push through the setbacks and discouraging times. Keep your eye on the end goal. There are no unreasonable goals… only unreasonable timelines.
Everybody is hiring right now, so you’re in a good spot. But even if things turn, if you love it, keep going.
I really can’t speak for the Jiu Jitsu thing. But as far as learning to fly… again similar to jiu jitsu- Enjoy the process, study, drill, practice flows, realize discouragement is a healthy part of the process, swallow your pride, keep your ego in check, backseat flights if you can. Take charge of your own training/ learning. Don’t expect everybody to spoon feed you. Breathe. Just. Keep. Going.
Long haul Blue Belt checking in.
@@KarmaFlight Nice man! Do you bring a gi with you? Or do any no-gi stuff on the road?
@@ashwilliams93 Just No Gi as I am on the 747 flying long trips so, it's too much to lug around the planet.
Amazing videos cap, keep them coming, keep on climbing and most importantly keep on smiling 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Such a fun video. Thanks for taking your time to put out this content; a really comfortable watch!
You’re my favorite airline vlogger! So glad I’ve never had to commute. Have driven to work for the last 12 years.
Love your positivity, passion and drive! Would love to connect with you 1 day to hear your story! The stories we have are impactful and yours are always positive! Keep inspiring! Flying to Frankfurt from Denver in March, maybe you’ll be our pilot. :)
This is Rob Dewing, somehow my wife and I crossed accounts.
You pilots and crew are amazing. Thanks for all you do.
This was really eye opening for me. As an aspiring pilot I was always worried about the concept of only being limited to the airliners or operations around my living area, but seeing that some people work for ops from the other side of the world sort of opens my options
Another super-insightful video, love it when I see these notifications.
i grew up in Long Beach, and my mom and dad took me to see the Dominator about 1 week after it grounded. The grain onboard was off loaded on the "floor" of Long Beach Port, where all the local birds ate well and became obese. Over 60 years ago.
That’s amazing. There’s not much left of it now.
Your commuting style is perfect! So many choose the last option and miss it.. that sucks for ops. Nice videos!
Absolutely love these videos man this has inspired me to become an airline pilot especially since you fly for my favourite airline. Any tips you could recommend for a student pilot starting off brand new?
Keep your eyes on the prize but take it one step at a time. It’s a long road, but a beautiful journey.
Thank you sooo much ! I love flying ! Your videos are just excellent !:)
Did you happen to ID your Co-pilot? Jeez, he looked like he just graduated from High School! lol! I enjoyed this video. Clearly you have the right laid back personality and disposition for your career. Your love of your career and life really comes across in your videos. Well done!
I am so glad to discover this channel! You honestly are a humorous man and I absolutely love United Airlines. I’ll be flying United from BOS-ORD in July and I hit the subscribe button as soon as I started watching
I want to be a pilot when I grow up
my uncle is based in JFK and commutes from MSP.. love watching your videos, you and sara maika are my inspirations for being a pilot vlogger
