Delta does a really good job at keeping their older planes like the 767 and 757 up and running in good shape, constantly upgrading their older planes. Credit to the way how Northwest Airlines would keep their old planes in good shape(they had 747-200s and DC-10s running from the 1970s all the way to the later 2000s

Seat configuration, menu, meals, flat bed, and I really like how the music was tastefully interjected.

Lovely video. I grew up on Long Island, and used to watch the planes coming in to JFK, Runway 13R which is where you just landed. I had no idea that you were medical. I went to school in Italy, and it was always sheer bliss returning home, usually on KLM 641, down that same runway. And now I live in Atlanta - married to Delta. I was back in New York for the first time in many years last month. The view approaching the Island from the South, identifying the old landmarks brought a big smile. Had you been sitting in 3A, you would have seen my high school, the local water tower, Belmont racetrack if you knew where to look. Unfortunately, the area is not what it was when I grew up there. But thank you for this little tad of nostalgia. And for the record, the Delta 767 Business class product has got to be one of the worst, and most expensive out there. The food and wine is very good, but that seat is cramped as hell, with absolutely no stowage space. But hey, any chance to cross the ocean is a good one, and for the future, you do a lot of flying over the continental shelf. The water isn't as deep there. Hope this helps for next time.

Any idea why it still uses vintage 767 ? Sometimes I feel a bit concerned about such an old aircraft, especially when in Asia, the avg age is just around 5.5 years for an aircraft & major airlines retire aircraft once they become 10 years old. The upcoming Emirates review will only show the major gap between Asian & US carriers. Btw, on several routes, Qatar first class is cheaper than BA business class :P.

Sullenberger's famous landing of US Airways Flt 1549 (Airbus A320) in the Hudson River. Perhaps all airplanes should be equipped with giant (retractable) pontoons like a sea plane--lol. Anyway, Delta is not as bad as some other US airlines, in my limited experience. At least you could completely recline in business class and to me, that would be everything :-)

This was one of the options on my list. UK based, so Manchester is my nearest airport with easy access. As well as Liverpool. I was thinking this flight with the Delta One product or Aer Lingus with their business product. Last time I checked, Aer Lingus worked out a little bit more expensive 10-15% but you get the benefit of US pre clearance in Dublin Airport. Plus a more modern aircraft. As someone that suffers from anxiety and a bit of a nervous flyer (I'm OK once in the air though), having US pre clearance in Dublin would help me relax more because I knew I could just walk out the exit at JFK. What are your thoughts between Delta and Aer Lingus?

I disagree about the 777 and the Airbus a330. The 777 herringbone layout just is weird because your feet near others and even if you have a window seat you are facing away from the window. In the a330 middle seats, your feet are almost touching others, and the IFE moves a lot. And actually, the with is about the same as on planes (fluctuating about 3ins.), but I think that the new "Delta One Suites" are very nice.
