I fly this route (although out of JFK) 2-3 times a year, however I've never flown United as they don't fly out of JFK and Newark is almost an hour and 30 minutes away for me. So it's nice to see someone fly on an unfamiliar airline on sucha familiar route
@@Followmyinstrutions It was a 40 minutes domestic flight so we didn't get any food. It was my only time in the US so far so i don't know anything about American plane food.
I took a flight with United from EWR-SFO and it was my first domestic flight in the US, I was shocked that the service for a 6 hours flight in a non low cost airline was only tiny bag of pretzel and a glass of cola(and for buy they had only one cold option) - I landed in SFO Starving! learned my lesson on my way back and ate well before the flight.
Simply aviation I have been amazed to see how many airlines you have done! also the quality of the videos are awesome! one route I recommend for you guys is Chicago O'hare to Santa Ana because I'm sure the channel subscribers would like to know approach and departure protocols there!
8:13 - you are right it is not that much for a five hour flight. In fact, meals are served inside of flights within and from India. I don’t know how and why it is standard in the United States.
Love ❤ the idea of showing the real flightpath at the start of the video. Just a thought, can you use the blue marble version of the map instead of the plain one to show real terrains, waterbodies to make it even more realistic? Great vid as always David & Felix
Love the videos, and I hope you will do one soon featuring Air Tahiti Nui on a scheduled flight to Tahiti. Flew them last year, and they were great, plus it helps when your destination is Tahiti.
EWR-PHX is a long way to go with no seatback screen, but at least there's BYOD entertainment. Even THAT is something Europeans can only dream of on a simlar length flight.
Like all U.S. domestic flights, the catering is so lousy and has been that way for years with U.S. carriers. For a 5 hour flight, all they can give is just a beverage and pretzels. You definately need to bring your own food along with you, (if it is permitted), otherwise you go very hungry.
Transferring in Newark from domestic flights in Terminal C to International flights in Terminal B is extremely fast and simple. You walk down a flight of stairs as soon as you get out of the plane and take 5 minute ride on a shuttle bus to terminal B. The whole process takes 15 minutes. Terminal B to Terminal C is a terrible process. You clear customs, leave the terminal and take the air train, go through security check and walk great distances. I doubt if you can do this in one hour.
I flew United both locally within the U.S. and long-haul across the Pacific within the last two weeks. I tell you it was by far the WORST flight experience of my life. I paid the lowest fair available, and United made sure I'm assigned the WORST seat of all 6 flights. They even skipped me during snack handout time! I'm going to try to fly a non-U.S. based airline next time... even if it means I have to pay a little bit more. Better to pay more to foreign airlines that treat you right than to pay more to U.S.-based airlines that nickel and dime you.
Row 28 and still at least 10 more rows to go. This makes a total of 38 rows of 6 pax each. This makes almost 240 pax. To much for a 737? Have I missed something?
You should be thankful that you flew on a newer model of the 737. This plane had an infamous flaw that caused two crashes that killed everyone on board. The planes were on final approach to their respective airports when their rudders jammed, sending them into a spiral straight to the ground. Their pilots were taken by surprise and there was nothing they could do to rectify the issue. Once the source of the problem was discovered, Boeing made changes to the jets
If you are referring to the 737 MAX (see 4:39), then I have a few corrections. If this is not what you are referring to, then please forgive me First, it is their newest 737 model, so the one being flown is this video is actually older. Second, the rudder was not the problem. To preface, the engines are placed further forward than they should be due to them being larger and otherwise not having enough ground clearance. This results in a forward shift of the center of gravity (which I personally think is a manageable issue provided there are no stability issues). Boeing wanted to counter this CG shift, so they created a software called MCAS. Tied to the angle-of-attack (AoA) sensors, this would sense that the nose was pitching up unnaturally, and it would automatically trim the aircraft to rectify the issue. There were multiple problems with MCAS. The biggest was that it was only tied to a single AoA sensor, and these sensors are extremely prone to failing (which is why most planes have 4 or more). This meant that if one sensor gave a faulty reading, MCAS would start pitching the plane down. To make matters worse, Boeing failed to publicize MCAS properly, so 737 MAX pilots at that time had no idea MCAS existed, let alone how to turn it off if it activated erroneously. There was also no reliable way to override its effects at that time. This is what caused those two crashes (btw neither of which crashed on approach, rather about 10 minutes after takeoff).
Who else here loves tripreports
Who doesn't
Meeee
@@ItzSeth_ hi
I Do!
But I Prefer Brutally Honest More!
But Tripreports Are Also Amazing!
@@Gaurav_Sharma3112 hi
So many videos lately, amazing! Keep ‘em coming.
Keep up the great work guys. Best aviation channel out there
My childhood right here, United Airlines, NJ Transit, and good ole EWR!

So my guess is you fly American or JetBlue from JFK to PHX
@@samroy5967 nah i fly delta since i have a stacked skymiles account lol
i woke up and went to youtube and four minutes after the video is published, i pressed on it to watch another great tripreport from my home airport
You waking up at 4pm mate?
@@aaryanbali4726 bro, it was around 7:30 AM in NJ - 2hours ago.
@@asarwabhotla Oh shoot! Didn't read the whole comment and assumed he's from India. My bad OP.
@@aaryanbali4726 i am Indian but I don't live in India, as my home airport is Newark; so yeah it was only around 6:30 AM
I've flown united once from Newark to Boston and back with their 737-800 and -700
How was the food did it taste good? I dont like foods on airplane and I wont talk about that😐

All US carriers lack the food in economy even on transcontinental flights

A glass of what 😐

As always, every time Simply Aviation uploaded new videos, never miss to watch it. Keep it up!
I love how insincere our escalators sound in Phoenix, "have a nice day" but that airport started my aviation career, it's home, jaja
Never been so early and I love the vids!!
Great Video As Always!
Hello from Gatwick! I hope you enjoyed your flight and keep up the great videos!
My favorite plane of all time.
You like the tailstand?
Literally the best aviation channel on the planet earth
I go on this flight all the time!
SO GOOD/first

Thank you for your beautiful video😅 Ď.
The plane is pretty retro though and I took the max 8 yesterday I absolutely loved it and it was on untied the movie screens got be entertained
Love the videos, and I hope you will do one soon featuring Air Tahiti Nui on a scheduled flight to Tahiti.
Flew them last year, and they were great, plus it helps when your destination is Tahiti.
Great flight. For that departure time, I think it's okay for having that service, since everybody onboard already got dinner before flight.
I keep binge watching these videos

Welcome to PHX, home of the Sun Devils 🌞
Wonderful
Great job as always!
Nice 👍
Thanks for sharing
Greetings from Helsinki ❄️ Finland
You should do more voiceovers videos as in your "brutally honest" series, i enjoy the videos when you talk, great video btw.
Please make a trip report on India's newest airline, Akasa Airlines.
How come 5 people claimed to be first lol. Great vid.
Excellent trip report David!😸
United is a solid airline
Just needs better food and its just 👌
How are you doing in India? What have you filmed?
You need to fly to Vegas one time - love to see that trip report :)
Keep doing more videos of Airlines in the US

Very nice content. I would love to fly on a 737 - 900 in the future. A phenomenal plane. Well Done 👍🏽
Great video i love planes they are safe to travel😊
My seat is 27f in that plane!
Fun fact: I am in 27F rn to houston
I just want to tell you how lucky I feel to be a part of your team, david❤
You should do the fairly new service on Lufthansa from St. Louis to Frankfurt!
So familiar to me.
Can you try doing Porter airlines from Canada please or Pacific airlines from vietnam

I’ve been on a 739ER but from DAL in a flight from JFK to ATL and that plane has IFE but the seating definitely was way more cramped than this…
What airline flies to DAL that has ife, doesnt only southwest alaska and deltas md80s fly there? Unless u mean DAL as in dallas fort worth
@@sohumpatel3364 Delta Air Lines
You should review Sunwing Airlines
In your opinion, the best is United or American?
What editing app do you use?
❤🇺🇸
OMG Check the size of the woman's wheely case in front of you. How does that pass for carry-on?
First!
You're second
You would have to drag me in CHAINS on this flight before I ever go back to Phoenix...
hi
Please do Hawaiian airlines!
first or second
Snacks are all you would want if you had dinner before boarding a late flight, and I'll bet you could get an extra snack if you asked.
Hey guys I'm traveling up to Boston MA in the states soon and was wondering what airline would be best like 400-700 price tag wise
jetBlue or Delta
@@theboizgarage821 perfect delta looks cheaper
You should probably try my airline
The Boeing 737-900ER is that one model down from the 737MAX?.
The 737-900ER is a sub variant of the 737-900, a member of the 737 Next Generation family and predecessor to the 737 MAX family.
Actually it's more like the predecessor to the MAX 9.
Bro you fly everyday or what
Next fly with Garuda Indonesia
Is it me or is everyone forgot about Simon 😔?
How narrow were the seats?
17 inches. A little tight but standard for 737
Why don’t you get to fly in first class since you fly so much don’t you get to earn miles just wondering
Do United Airlines (UA) EWR to DXB 😮 it will be unique!
Fly air algerie from algiers to dubai

5 hours on a 737 900 ugh
Stop saying it's first class it's business class not more not less

5 hours + and get a drink and pretzels? No screen and entertainment? US carriers are really bad. Nice video though
The inflight service is just embarrassing
I Hate Layovers 😭
Thats a shame for a 5 hour flight!!!!! 😠
