[@bandit_killer84]

My partner and I are taking this flight next May, after 10 days in L.A. 3 nights in Honolulu before heading home to Auckland, New Zealand. 🇳🇿❤

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

awesome! have a great trip!

[@K4Ediamond]

Nice one. I haven’t been on a 757-300, but I took a United 757-200 on the 8 hour Stuttgart to Newark in 2013, and it had IFE screens. That route is long gone, but it’s the only long haul I’ve taken on a narrow body. The tail was N17128.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

@@K4Ediamond they are similar aircrafts, the 757 is amazing!!

[@K4Ediamond]

@@MileHigh_Aviation Yep. I also took two -200s with Delta. Sadly one of them was scrapped (N757AT, she was a really old one).

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

@@K4Ediamond aww that’s so sad! long live the 757!

[@K4Ediamond]

@@MileHigh_Aviation Cheers to many more years of the pencil plane. 🥂

Great video! I have a this exact flight plan this summer!

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

you’ll love it! the views are great!

[@FlyDaminO]

Enjoyed every second of the video MileHigh! And 38,000 feet for a domestic flight is pretty high!

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

Glad you enjoyed it! And I thought so too!

[@CharlieMike23]

Nice video!

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

Thank you! I appreciate you watching :)

[@seearejay]

enjoyed that takeof!!!

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

can’t go wrong! Beautiful views in LA

[@maxschlotter4596]

The DC-8-63/73 is longer than the 753, and single aisle.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

The DC8 hovers around 150 feet, while the 757-300 is 179 feet long

[@rocksandforestquiver959]

@@MileHigh_AviationThe shorter DC-8 is 150ft, the -63/73 were 187ft Edit: Not that the DC-8 is still operating lol

[@Hawaiianair2121]

Wow! What a flight! Continental Airlines vibes with the seat 18F font there-I guess United didn’t upgrade the interior because that’s the font continental used. I would love to go on the flying pencil, lucky you always goes to Hawaii 😂

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

Its a beautiful place! I did not notice that it was the font that continental used back in the days! Super cool feature! Thanks for watching as always!

[@red.guevarra]

Nice flight on The Pencil! I was hoping it had a Polaris product up front so I can plan on booking a short-haul with it.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

yeah i’m not sure why the don’t, maybe it will be apart of the United’s NEXT interior program

[@UnitedAviation7]

I love the flying pencil

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

me too

[@Crosswindsaviations]

The flying sport car is great

[@shindrithargriethrat8408]

I used to be stationed in Hawaii and would fly to Seattle to see my then girlfriend. Whenever I was flying back it was so depressing because I was leaving her and going back to my normal work life. The planes would be packed with people happy and excited to go to Hawaii and that made it feel even worse. But, we've been married for 25 years so it's all good now.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

@@shindrithargriethrat8408 Oh I totally get that! my grandpa was stationed in the philippines I believe and had the same scenario

Do you buy repeat registration aircraft for your airports? Meaning the n-number

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

occasionally, not typically tho

[@JetstreamAviation747]

Flew KOA-LAX on the Delta 753, they are amazing aircraft!

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

the 757-300 is legit. I wish they made a 757max

[@JetstreamAviation747]

@@MileHigh_Aviation Yeah, I think it was a missed opportunity for Boeing considering the success of the 200.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

@@JetstreamAviation747 yeah, I agree

[@MrJLee-ri3so]

It’s a long n narrow aisle for a long flight, feels very cramped

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

i can understand that feeling, I personally didn’t feel that way, but a 777 definitely feels more open

[@idxluaviation]

I flew on this flight in First Class last summer also on a 757-300, this was one of the worst flights I have ever taken. The 757-300 is a horrible aircraft for this route due to its lack of onboard WiFi or Inflight Entertainment Screens, added to that, the service on my flight was appalling.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

I’m sorry to hear that, I had a good experience overall. As I mentioned in the video, United is planning on adding TV’s to all their airplanes soon.

[@idxluaviation]

@@MileHigh_Aviation I hope they hurry up with the NEXT renovations yeah…. Honestly I’d rather have them put their new A321neos on this route instead like delta did. I flew on the inaugural lol.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

@@idxluaviation oh nice! how was that?

No inflight video screens? Man, that's so bloody cheap. Japanese domestic airlines have screens on their flights.
