And yes, the pilots let me check out the fly deck last September on my birthday, and they took photos of me sitting in the FO's seat - the best day I have had (I am a female). Long live the BA's A380!!

Hi Jacob! Thank you for watching. They did not weigh my carry ons they were lax about it on this flight. This was a full flight. From my previous A380 flights carry ons were never a problem. This plane is so big and powerful enough that any extra weight is not a big deal. The Emirates A380 even cargos vehicles of all sorts. One of the luxuries flying with the A380. In a 777 or A350 carry on weight is an issue therefore most airlines are stricter from my experience.

I had low expectations for United and I was letdown we couldn’t fly Ana or JaL but I Just flew on United airlines for the first time last month from Denver to SFO then to Osaka Kansai on UA 35 777-2 and I must say I was impressed with the long haul products and service that United offered on my flight and I was impressed with how nice the cabin was despite being a older 777-200 idk if it’s because United is trying to compete with ANA and JAL on the same route but when I saw other United reviews to places like London or Paris the quality of the flights looked atrocious. The SFO airport also blew my mind since we’ve only been using LAX to get to Asia but I gotta consider using SFO more since it’s less chaotic, much more organized and just cleaner
@sfoaviation2 ай бұрын
Thank you for watching and sharing your feedback on your United flight experience. I'm glad you had a good experience with United. From experience United's international hauls are usually more pleasant. Depending on the destination most of their long haul domestic are the worst lots of cheapos and creeps travel on them which explains the beat up cabin so on. International like the ones going to Japan have more sensible travelers onboard so the planes are less beat up.
