We all knew that the 747 and A340s were on the way out, but this, like the A380, is too young to be off to the aircraft boneyard. :( And sooo true about those engines starting up, and then that spool up is magical!

It's a sad day when any aircraft type is retired, this one prematurely at only 11 years old....it was just broken in...the triple-7 will still be flying for years to come with other carriers.

That was the most beautiful plane in the most beautiful livery. I always imagined being a pilot, and flying it. It’s the aircraft that made me decide I’m going to be a pilot. And the plane was just retrofitted, it was such a shocking retirement. And I think it’s so sad that this plane, along with all planes retired during COVID, just don’t get the send off they deserve. They deserve water salutes, televised final flights, and plane spotters everywhere.

I was scheduled to fly on my first 777 this year headed from ATL to JNB and very excited about it. Then, 3 days before we were to fly, the world shut down. This is bittersweet for me as I now get to fly the amazing A350 next April on the same itinerary but perhaps will never get to fly on the 777. Also, my internal flights in S. Africa could not be refunded and that cost us money as we were to return via JNB whereas now we are leaving via CPT. I did not know the reason for the change and this video explained it perfectly at 6:25 so thank you.

Only time I got to fly the refurbished 777 was LAX-SYD in C+ in the bulkhead. Honestly, the 15-hours passed by in no time. Pretty comfortable cabin for such a long flight. I know you're a Delta One flyer, Jeb, but for those of us in economy for long-haul, it was really great to see Delta keep the cabin 9 across instead of the more common 10 across. Though they are a little wider than what's found elsewhere on their fleet, let's hope these newer seats and suites can find homes in upcoming A350 planes (the A350s still need C+ seats after all!).

Jeb -a grand tribute to one of my favorite airplanes to fly on. The 777-300 has been my favorite model; unfortunately, Delta never flew those. It did all those things you described about moving families across borders (and Oceans), taking people to job interviews, flying newly married couples to honeymoons and just making business travel safe, enjoyable and comfortable. It is a shame that we lose this option for air travel now, but they may bring back these planes once global travel demand picks up. See you in the sky!

Hard to believe, but in many ways this is a sadder retirement than Delta's 747. While undoubtedly a more iconic aircraft, the Queen had her time, while these 777's have plenty of tread left. The Suites are a better seat than, not only what was on 747, but also many planes Delta still flies: A330, 767, A330neo, retrofit 767. Not to mention the queen retired and the incredible A350 took its spot. The 777 is retiring bc of a catastrophic time in aviation.

Its so sad to see the 777 is gone forever in Delta's fleet :( hopefully the A350 will do a good job at taking its place in the near future. The best memories I have of the 777 in deltas fleet is perhaps the iconic flights like from Atlanta to Johannesburg, New York to Dubai, and even Lax to Sydney Australia. And those GE90s, oh man the best engine sound in the world, I'm happy you agree 3:45 Thanks a lot for the video and cya in the sky! :D R.I.P 777-200 -1999-2020

It appears at least for the near future, Delta's long haul fleet strategy will rely very heavily on the a330/a330neo/a350 (all of which have a common type rating if I understand correctly). I'm still surprised Delta is still extensively using 757/767s where they can. I honestly expected those to go out before the triple seven before I realized just how few of the 777 Delta was operating.

I never thought I'll be moved by the 777s retiring, as all of my long haul travels had been on 777s bar one or two flights. In my mind, I thought the 777s would be around forever!

The Delta 777-200LR was my favorite plane. Saw it through replacing the 747 as DAL 295, flew on it many times from LAX to ATL and back, and even fly the "Spirit of Atlanta" livery on my PC simulator. She will be missed.

Such a shame to hear about the Boeing 777 retiring from Delta. My first flight was on a BA 777-200(ER) and I'll be saddened when that fleet has its turn in the years to come. Its a shame BA didn't give their 747's a farewell flight like Delta & QANTAS have done.

I had one of the craziest experiences of my life on an aircraft on one of these. I had error after error, and didn't make it to check in. I was supposed to fly on an A330, but it had left due to my lateness. A 777 turned around crossing the Atlantic due to a medical issue, and the captain agreed to take my mom and I while they refueled. Never gonna forget that!
