Welcome to iTripReport's flight reviews, which I focus on reviewing both the soft product and hard product of airlines around the globe. I strive to give you guys a first person perspective of different aspects of the flight. Including the ground service, onboard service, and those views that come with the flight. As you can see, I record quite a lot of the experience to make sure I record what you want to watch. As always, thank you so much for watching.

[@ITripReport]

If you are all curious as to how you can find out what seat you'll be flying on, there's 2 ways, 1, using flightradar24, after you figure out your tail number, you can check which seat the aircraft has on this list: sites.google.com/site/newamericanfleet/american-mainline/boeing-777-200er Where B/E = This seat Zodiac = The "coffin" seat Another way to figure out is through the seat map, starting around 24 hours after departure, AA will depict seats facing backwards with a a little triangle within the seat map.

[@jlukes93]

Do you have a similar website for United's progress in updating their Max's ?

[@alohafromkauai6569]

So miss that sound and hum of a triple 7. Can’t wait to get back to flying again., soon, very soon! Great content!

It´s so satisfying to listen to the 772 engines in the up front.

I just got upgraded to 5L for my 772 flight from DFW to ORD tomorrow! Super excited!

Team GE90 all day every day. Change my mind. Well done video as always

[@ggardeazabal]

AA is in my heart and always like to se the reviews, you made a good one with this video. Definitely the Pandemic has changed the way we travel , but the emotion of flying never go. Thank you

[@aviationwithjeff]

The only time I flew business on an American 777-200 was in 2014 in the old business seats (2-3-2). Long flight Seoul to DFW too. This is definitely a lot better than what I experienced.

[@chrisbungostudios]

Nice video, I'm sure it took some time and effort to put together. Nice to see a video from my home airport, MIA. Have flown on the AA 772 dozens of times. Those "backwards/forwards? Zodiac seats are definitely a disappointment, though fortunately I've only got that configuration maybe 25% of the time. My favorite seat is 6L. It's in the private little "nook" where nobody is across the aisle from you, though the Super Diamond seat really is great no matter where in the cabin you are sitting. One more thing: I'm an AA million miler (almost a two million miler) and I have to say, I have have never, ever had a bad experience with AA cabin crew. Sure, some have been "just by the book" doing the service, but more often than not they are friendly, engaging and do a wonderful job.

[@seablock1]

I like the 6L too. Seat Guru warns that it is close to the bathroom but flying 6L two times, I never noticed any traffic. I just switched again to 6L for a Tuesday flight as business is a little full and my wife agreed to sit in 7L instead of the two open L seats in 9 and 10.

[@chrisbungostudios]

@@seablock1 Enjoy the flight. :-)

[@alaskafan21]

Emil, I have an adverse stance on AA. I avoid them at all cost. This is a relatively new thing within the past ten ( 10 ) years.

[@jasonmoors1191]

And this is because?

[@WSAirplanes]

I'll have all kind of experience with AA. They are so inconsistant in some things, some flights I was told to stop recording the plane by the FA. By the other side, in another flight FA where so nice and intrested in our hobby. Got from low expectations and get surprised, as also expecting at least a sandwich or cheese option in a 2.5hr International long flight and only get 2 bags of pretzels instead of one. Looking foward to fly on 772 seats by September, but already tried the 77W one (the best definitely). We can be agree that most of B788 BC suks. Excellent work, always watch your videos and inspiring me to make trip reports in my region (Central America) KEEP GOING!

[@BrandonJohnson10K]

Cirrus seats on AA’s 777-300ER are my favorite in their fleet.

[@Z06ified]

I’m surprised to see the inside of the engine nacelle so scraped up. I know it’s just cosmetic, but makes me wonder what happened to it so it looks so banged up. I’ve never seen a nacelle like that, and I’ve been on a lot of flights sitting forward of the engine to see.

[@juandiego2609]

Great video, as always.

[@barber215]

I'm hopeful that you'll be able to fly out of the newly refurbished North Satellite terminal at SeaTac (Seattle) Airport once it's completed about July/August of this year. And have a go at the Alaska Airlines lounge in the North Satellite if you decide to fly first class. Nice looking vid, and love the honesty of the reviews.

[@erauprcwa]

My only gripe about AA 777 first class is that some of the seat amenities are not user friendly. I’m literally pushing back on one right now and I had to find this video to figure out how to pull out the tray table (10:00). When in doubt, KZbin-it.

[@shashikakade7149]

❤️awesome👍💤

[@KC73]

AA is still serving that Turkey sandwich. It is very soggy. The cheese plate is ok if you eat cheese.

[@manugfan]

My favorite engines especially on the 777 are the GE-90s

[@willbrown4274]

Hi! I’m a bit confused in hearing the sound perspective from the aircraft taking off & landing, so which camera were you using to record the entire flight (takeoff & landing etc)? The iPhone 11 Pro or the GoPro Hero 8?

[@silvestrecontreras8078]

Fly UAL the ORD-BJX Route that they currently have rn ! Would love to see that one 🙌

[@sitchad]

Love your reviews

[@revolutions88]

GE-90S of course

[@lyndadavidson391]

Well American changed my flight to another aircraft as I expected so I won’t be flying first class on a 777-200 at the start of my vacation. 😕 I have learned not to hold my breath sense this is so typical of them. My return flight is still on a 777-200 again not holding my breath.

[@stuartlee6622]

I'm surprised they are still in business.

[@RileyTech]

[@travelingnick4314]

amazing video

[@jasonmoors1191]

Ironic how Emil's AA flight is arriving at a 'Delta' gate! Those RR's don't have the same growl as the GE 90's--I haven't flown AA in years,ever since the MD-80's have been retired,I have informally abandoned the company,preferring Delta but with their MD-88's now retired,have for the time being,mentally put DL as #2 option,am tempted to try SWA next time to AZ to see family--I have never flown any carrier's Triple 7 fleet,much less their business class cabin so am completely out of the loop as to seating styles--as for a future flight routing,maybe its time to exercise your passport and head to Tahiti,sample Air Tahiti Nui or do the Island Hopper but EB from Guam to Honolulu--Canada from what I know is still closed to US visitors--did notice that there has been a months-long lag between this video and uploading date--on the IFE,there were news items dated from September of last year.

[@CR1SPBAC0N]

When you’re next flight to Honolulu?

[@blueenigma2912]

Great video. Once you have your tail number how can you figure out which seat type you’ll be in?

[@ITripReport]

Once you know the tail number of your aircraft, you can check here sites.google.com/site/newamericanfleet/american-mainline/boeing-777-200er Where you'd want to be on a B/E seat and not the Zodiac

[@TheGlobalTraveler]

I just flew the AA 777-200 from DFW to ORD really hoping for this seat, I didn’t know that not all the 777-200s had the refurbished seats. Was there anyway you were able to tell if the seats were the old ones or the new ones? Awesome video!

[@ITripReport]

Its a bit complicated, basically what you'll want to do is figure out the tail number of your aircraft (usually through flightradar24), then, I double check with sites.google.com/site/newamericanfleet/american-mainline/boeing-777-200er, where Zodiac = coffin seats, and B/E = the super diamond. Sadly there's no way to guarantee you'll get either seat when booking, (unless you book less than 48 hours in advanced).

[@TheGlobalTraveler]

@@ITripReport Thank you for that website!! I tried to use Flightradar24 to see if there was anything like that website on AA.com, but didn’t get anything. Thanks!!

[@jimshaw597]

Many of the 788's have the old seats too. Rather fly PE.

[@CarlinDontCare]

0:55 I hate when that happens 😂

[@Taffeyboy]

What are 772’s?

[@mrmotel9977]

We have a domestic first class trip scheduled in June that was just changed to a 777-200. I'm curious if I'll be able to communicate with my wife is one of us has the window and one has the isle seat across? Or should we both sit in the center? From DFW to Las Vegas it's normally just a 737 or A321 but this year I guess demand is climbing? Appreciate any advise! Thanks!!

The sandwich doesn't too bad.

[@lymphocytedr]

If I’m sitting forward of the engines, the GE-90 is my favorite; you can’t beat that spool up and full throttle sound. But if I’m sitting right next to the engines, like in premium economy, then the PWs are my favorite. You can still hear the buzz, even though the you can’t see the fan! If I’m in regular economy, behind the engines, then 🤷🏽‍♂️.

[@ChrisGugliuzza]

Don’t recommend this plane for long haul. DFW-ICN. They gave us one hot meal during the whole flight! Yikes. Seats are tiny compared to other airlines

[@mscolli3]

Looks great, but I've personally never been on an AA flight that wasn't delayed - the union is always having a slow-down protest for better wages.

[@ziauddinkhan5699]

I love the GE90s, but RR or P&W aren't bad also.

Nice videos man, I’m a student pilot and I’ll love to do the thing you do at 1:17 , how do you do that?

[@gabrieltrabanino9292]

excellent!

[@ryani369]

Miami to Dallas isn’t a flagship route. Domestically it’s solely JFK-LAX, JFK-SFO, and LAX-MIA. That same plane to lax nonstop you would’ve had much higher tiered food, cold pressed juice, espresso, a comforter and pillow pack, amenity kits, 3 reds, 3 whites, actual champagne, noise cancel headphones, four option menu for entree, and more still even in these times! It REALLY does make a difference domestically which routes you take and the experience you get on the plane.

[@ryanbean7209]

13:22 - I was gonna mention the same thing! And AA says people don't watch seatback TV... yeah okay.

[@KMJOAviation]

Love the RR engines!!! For me, American is soooo inconsistent with their product. I fly out of PHX and they almost always let me down with an inferior product. Since every aircraft they have is equipped with a dozen different interiors, its potluck whether you get a good one. I haven't flown AA for 5 years because of it, especially when there are so many better airlines out there. Im willing to spend more, fly more stops to a different airline hub than fly the one in my own backyard. I will say I finally decided to give them a try a week ago to SAN and they really impressed me with the inflight service (on such a short flight) and great crew members/aircraft. So Im willing to give them another chance. Wish me luck!

[@jimshaw597]

Mostly due to the US Air merger. US Air ended up with tons of junk from America West, most of which ended up at AA in 2013.

[@paulgazzara639]

How can you check the tail number and what configuration you'll have before the flight?

[@pete84101]

The seat width was in line industry standards, but the pitch is about 10” shorter than the industry
