Why do you so love delta? At least from my experience, there are a terrible airlines (not as American airlines tho)

[@Aviation_Game]

The scratches on the inside of the windows are human abuse. Scratches on the outside are due to micro particles bouncing off of the aircraft’s windows at high speeds. At those speeds even a little bit of micro particles can be like a sand blaster to the windows of the aircraft. You will generally notice the further most windows of an aircraft are more scratched because of the more direct contact they are hit with due to it being tapered. Every heavy-check on an aircraft they replace several of the windows because of this scratching.

[@braygun44]

Jeb Brooks I feel the exact same way about the dots!!! They’re so annoying and I fly through Detroit so much.

[@lewis2255]

Like the new editing style! But the top left water mark is oversized and very noticeable

[@davidszczepan5855]

funny enough i only noticed after i found this comment

[@brilondon]

I didn't even realise that.

[@GreenerGrass]

Thanks so much for the feedback. I've included it in the last several videos, but this is the first time it seems to be noticeable. I'll make it a bit smaller in the future!

[@mgroh5564]

I’m a pilot based in Detroit, and have always been told the dots were designed to reduce solar heating of the terminal through the massive windows as an energy saving method.

[@ikolkyo967]

M Groh Yeah this is definitely what it’s for.

[@mateoreyes7415]

That’s what I thought they were for too

[@brilondon]

That's what I was told years ago.

[@Ahuntsicspotter]

Are you Delta pilot?

[@GreenerGrass]

Awesome info. That makes WAY more sense than birds! Thanks!!

[@williamthawley9251]

anxious to see the St Helena video, have read a lot about the island, and their landing strip.

[@NIKKG]

I live in the Detroit area, DTW airport truly is one of the best in the world and came a long way in comparison to the old structure.

[@lanceschulz3367]

I second this. The old airport was one of the worst I ever flew from, but the new one is really great - top class.

[@oakgoat6004]

DTW is my home airport, so glad u can experience how great it is!

[@donkensler]

Another Detroiter here, and amazingly enough the DL (McNamara) terminal is more than 18 years old and still holds up.

[@ommyotter4064]

I'll be having a layover in the Detroit airport for the first time over spring break! It's always a pleasure exploring a new airport. The end of my journey is at Reagan International Airport as well, which is another new one for me! I can't wait to see them both.

[@wotan10950]

Although I’m based in New York City, I used to have an office in Detroit, circa 1998-99. When I’d fly into Detroit’s dreary airport, I’d see a massive hole in the ground.....which eventually became the new airport terminal! Who knew?! It’s actually a great hub for transfers, better than most U.S. and European hubs.

[@_w_w_]

Unlikely. At high speed, any debris in the air would have sandblasted the window smooth with very microscopic scratches, especially these widebody spend most of their life in the air. Most of Delta 777 still have pretty unscratched windows. These exterior window scratches are likely caused by carelessness of ground crew when docking the jetbrige door, or Airbus is using new glass materials very prone to scratch.

[@babsg89]

Not correct. The scratches on this window are likely due to jet bridge awnings making contact with the window. I’ll bet any amount of money that if you move to the right side of the plane, the windows are pristine, especially on a plane this new.

[@yetigrande]

You didn't "break"the door. You unlocked the emergency exit so the door can freely swing open if it was closed. Also, that silver mood light on the wall of the suite slides down to reveal a movable directional reading light. Glad you enjoyed the flight on our flagship out of my home DTW! I've got some great pics/vids working on them!

[@johnsymons76]

@@lordray1284 Yes, and it was nice but I have been waiting for an aviation vlogger to highlight the flight over and back from South Africa. Would love to fly in to their airport. Talk about exciting!

[@GreenerGrass]

It was an exciting trip. I can't wait to share it with you all!

[@WBDE]

I had a Delta flight from St Louis to Greensboro with a connection in Detroit not long ago. I learned a critical lesson: always be pleasant and nice to the Delta employees on the ground. My connection in Detroit was busted with no more flights to Greensboro that day. I was pleasant to the employee helping stranded passengers and I got a complimentary hotel room and an amenity kit. The passengers who were angry and raising Cain with the Delta employees had to spend the night in the Detroit terminal.

[@josephrapp5596]

dislike the detroit dots as well. wasn’t entirely convinced the IFE is 4 stars? i’ve flown this product and the huge screen is awesome, and there are sooo many shows and movies to pick from. seems like you only didn’t like the flight map and lack of a camera. camera would be cool but is still just a novelty, yet i wouldnt group that with IFE.

[@Fadhiil5112]

Delta's A350 looks beautiful

[@gop4usa12]

Delta uses their old holdovers planes from to PDX-AMS. My last trip was on 767 and the next will be A330. So I figure I'll be flying to Amsterdam on one of those A350s in about 20 years. But I don't mind flying on older planes because Delta is good at keeping their old cabins up to date.

[@cokecansandwinglets5783]

Yeah and also I think I read that the A330s are getting refurbed with D1 Suites soon.

[@gop4usa12]

@@cokecansandwinglets5783 Unfortunately the Premium Select seats aren't available on my upcoming PDX-AMS flight. But if I really wanted it bad enough, I could have booked a SEA connection with one of those seats on an A330-900neo.

I fly with them as a paying passenger now,and as a non rev most of my life.They are a great company both of my parents worked for. Thanks for your support. They will need it now.I am worried about the virus. At least oil prices are low,but the industry is going to take a beating for a few months.

Here's to a great flight...Jeb !! Well done !! DB will be pleased !! A most excellent flight Jeb and the score seems to sum things up !! Thanks for yet another great review and as always I look forward to your next adventure and flight !! Well done again !!

[@theflyer1]

@Jeb Brooks at the 0:11 mark, there is a flydubai aircraft at the back in the hangar, what is it doing there? 👀

[@GreenerGrass]

Great eye! It’s a MAX that was getting some work done by HAECO, an MRO at GSO, when all of the MAX’s were grounded. Therefore, it’s stuck in GSO.

The "Detroit Dots" are also do disperse direct sunlight so the airport stays well lit but the sun is never in your eyes

[@seanp7dc]

Aside from the watermark, and your strange narrative over-emphasis ("X was a nightmare!" Y was incredible!"), I enjoyed the visuals of this flight, particularly the lounge shots. Amazing! ;)

[@lorenzobartolini2811]

[@jlmarc01]

What part of leg was 6 1/2 hours?? Detroit to Holland. Is that correct? Heard that from Delta. Impressed with the beauty of Detroit airport?

[@funnyfarm299]

Probably a strong wind pushing them across.

[@GreenerGrass]

Yup. The flight from DTW - AMS was 6.5 hours thanks to a very strong tailwind!

[@thomasnenneau2487]

Dear Jeb, I always enjoy your reports, but Detroit Metro (DTW) is my home airport and I do not find the dots bothersome. In fact, I only ever noticed them after you mentioned them. Maybe you're standing too close to the window?! Thanks for your great reports!

[@robertjolley2381]

I hate the dots too!!!! Several years ago I had a chance to get a great shot of a 747 from behind the fountain in the main concourse but those damn dots killed the shot!!!! hahahah. Great video Jeb.

@@afcgeo882 Yes, they only fly to SYD though don't they? As in DL don't serve anywhere else in Aus? They just use Virgin Australia as a feeder to SYD, and VA operate all the other international flights. So availability can be difficult for redemptions. It's there, just requires some planning!

Those dots are for solar energy it stops the over heating from the sun... Also it stops the sun reflections when the windows were first installed a lot of people complained because the sun was blinding them.. Now the dots might allow certain kind of birds from hitting the windows but no its a solar and reflection thing..

mr. Brooks you have a perfect speech, you make a perfect videos for studying language)))

[@bobsellars2395]

Great video as usual. The 'Detroit dots' seem far too intrusive. I had problems at my home with birds flying into clear glass patio screens, apparently the panels were in their line of flight through to nearby trees and the birds could not see any obstacle. This was fixed by attaching a single small (4 sq inches) almost clear plastic transfer of a leaf onto each panel. This caused sufficient distortion to alert birds, who have amazing eyesight and maneuverability, of the presence of an obstacle and fixed the problem of bird strike almost completely. The patches are available in New Zealand for a couple of dollars each - perhaps you could pass this info on to Detroit airport management or I could bring a sample with me as I will be flying out of Detroit later this year!

[@john40539]

Ugh. We have those at Chicago ORD on the new L Stinger. It would have the most incredible views, but the dots just ruin every photo.

If it changed again in the meantime - not sure but I flew 3 months ago - Dec 2019.

Just going Premium Select from now on and leaving the suites for the real long hauls to Asia or at least anything over 8hrs. Oh yea, the suites are holding up but you can see people are starting to beat them up (like that window) which is a shame. Saw some scratch marks by the seat controls too.
