REVIEW | United Airlines | Newark (EWR) - Los Angeles (LAX) | Boeing 757-200 | Economy

[@javianjohnson8746]

EWR is actually my home airport, and every time I fly over to LAX its been on a wide body, but usually come back home on these 757s. Definitely makes for a more comfortable trip over since its 6 hours there but who knows, maybe one day I'll fly to LAX on a 757, especially since United is phasing them out.

I have a few hours before my flight which will be on this aircraft, 757-200! Very excited! Wow, the view at 10:12 is insane - really gives you a clear picture of the very dense population of NJ.

[@dudex233]

i used to fly out of EWR 10 times a year in the late 90s/early 2000s with continental airlines when i had lived in greensboro and wanted to go visit parents in south america. still looks very familiar

26:59 Very smooooth landing!

[@ticoman90]

Hahaha Jeff Ross in the red hoodie at 4:01 Lovely bird the 75 and wish to fly on it soon before they’re gone forever

[@yonkers01]

The last time I flew on a 757-200 was many eons ago when I did JFK - LAX. It was on what UA had then a "one-off" 757-200T (Transcontinental) which was an all premium economy aircraft. This was when I visited the US about 18 years ago. Just found your channel after a recommendation. Have subscribed to it.

[@alex_b_9850]

Yeah some of their PW-engined legacy 757s were outfitted for coast to coast service. The ex-continental ones, which are all they have now, have a standard mixed product.

14:20 I like their meal boxes with delicious snacks inside, when I flew back to SFO from Chicago last week, I ordered a Recline box and they offered pretzels, oreos, gummy bears and popcorns.

[@Fluben]

its always a good day when u can fly on a 757! Best plane ever

[@JVGordonII]

24:19 That was a very steep descent, and the flaps were extended pretty far to be that high up. Interesting approach for sure

[@ecoRfan]

Last time I flew into LAX went from 38,000 ft to nothing in 27 minutes. Felt like a steep descent.

[@JVGordonII]

@@ecoRfan I wonder why the descent is so steep. Maybe to avoid all the different SoCal airspaces 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing your trip here. Yes, those transcon flights are long-haul flights. I saw the jet bridge was attached to Door 1L. So, you were able to walk through First or Polaris Class. Yes, the seats in First or Polaris are very nice.

[@LMays-cu2hp]

I see you had a seat further back in Economy but in your reservation were you able to have a seat further back up near Door 2R or 2L to get the more leg room. If not up by Door 2R or 2L then maybe at the Exit Row area?

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Flying over the Grand Canyon is very nice going west. I like in the summer times when the sun has melted to snow off the pecks of mountains, you are able to see the different color variations of the mountains. I do miss flying in the PS Service and with a Business Class section on the old 757-200s. And United still fly the 757s on the other long-haul flight to Hawaii from Los Angeles and from San Francisco is very nice.

[@sammy7068]

hi ty for sharing the economy class wichi is some people travel love it

[@ThatsMyBlackOpinion]

Thanks. It looks like the exit row with two seats has a window! That’s going to be my seat and I was told there is no window, so this is great info!!

[@AviationFin]

Nice 👍 Thanks for sharing Greetings from Helsinki ❄️ Finland

[@jerrythemouse28]

The first time I flew United Airlines was on a 757-200 from JFK to SFO in 2015, and I heard that United 757-200 will be retired in the next 3 years. A321neo, A321XLR and 737 MAX series will be taking over the 757-200s.

[@coordinator3039]

I will treasure every B757 flight I was on

[@dallascowboytouchdown4319]

Flights 77 and 93 were not accidents.

[@devongonzalez9207]

Delivered in 2010 that can be right they don't make those anymore the last one was built in 2004 757

[@GlobalAviationTravel]

It was delivered to united in 2010 but previously flew with other airlines

[@tankman_tv9332]

It was most likely an ex-continental airlines 757 before continental got merged into United

[@tayjam28]

how do you find tickets along these routes without having to spend extra money? I would love to start taking the "fun" way around when I travel back and forth between NYC, DC, and Ft Lauderdale.

[@asafblasbergvideographer]

Have all the United 757-200 aircraft been upgraded with the latest cabin and those IFEs?

[@GlobalAviationTravel]

@@asafblasbergvideographer yes

[@asafblasbergvideographer]

@GlobalAviationTravel that’s great!

[@mt_xing]

8:06 bruh I'm not sure 9/11 counts as an "accident"

[@tahoebrocksmith723]

Real

[@mehdi7588]

👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝

[@lmjr400]

United 93

[@jconte29]

Typical 🗑️ United using some old ass plane that’s ready to fall apart. Fly delta 330 neo or American a321 transcon from nyc to lax out of jfk

[@747Cuber]

delta still uses the 757, nice try

[@Mrcharles.]

Delta also flies the 767. I actually prefer old planes over new ones. After all didn’t the max aircrafts recently come under scrutiny?
