TRIPREPORT | United (ECONOMY) | Boeing 737-700 | Newark - Bogotá

[@-Bloomia-]

I remember flying on United from Beijing to San Francisco. I was pretty young at the time, so it involved me running around exploring the plane while I tried to avoid cabin crews with their trolleys.

[@SplashingLebron921]

Do you remember what aircraft was it

[@bluango]

@@SplashingLebron921 probably a 787 or 777

United has recently announced that they will be retrofitting all of their mainline aircraft with fresh cabins, including IFE screens. A move similar to what Delta is doing.

A Tripreport from 2019! I was enjoying the video when it hit me, no masks! Those were the days!!

[@jacksonkuster3805]

YEAAAA!! Back at my home airport of EWR!!! Also the story about the plane going missing at the airport is the most Newark thing ever!!

[@phantomjosh2148]

Wait what plane missing? That’s creepy

[@techspeak5801]

​@phantomjosh2148 they couldn't find the aircraft cause it was at the maintaiance hangar. Not creepy but definitely odd!

[@ManLikeBishy]

Great trip report as always David! 👏🏽 Personally, I wouldn’t like to fly more than 5 hours on a narrow body aircraft.

[@skylineXpert]

Tried 7.5 on a crammed charter flight CPH-LPA-SID. But I agree anyway

[@dairokkan.sg2]

I would actually like to see it, especially with the A321XLRs coming up!

[@samholly3168]

I can see your point, but a benefit these narrow-bodies have over the wide-bodies are wider seats. The A220, which is generally considered a regional aircraft, is capable of flying 7 hours nonstop. It also has the widest economy seats of any commercial aircraft. Just something we have to get used to.

[@insayn7995]

@@dairokkan.sg2 That’s not always true, seat width varies from airline to airline, it comes down how a airline configures it’s seating. Most people prefer traveling on widebodies because they usually offer better legroom as compared to narrowbodies, and just the larger and more open cabin helps people avoid getting sick and claustrophobic. You’re right about the A220 though, but it’s still very rare plane at this point.

Wow, that 737-700 seems to be upgraded rather well. Not only has the interior been fitted with IFE, but the wingtips have also been retrofitted with newer strobe lights and Scimitar winglets. (Notice how the light pulses rather slowly at takeoff, instead of flashing very quickly.)

[@AEMoreira81]

I believe all United 737s have split scimitar winglets, regardless of age…United has some really old 737-700s and 737-800s as well. (All United 737s are also ETOPS-equipped.)

[@AEMoreira81]

BOG is hot and high. That means that one has to use a small narrow body like the A319 or Boeing 737-700, or a wide-body (the A320neo can also fly BOG-NYC but the classic A320 cannot).

The funny thing is, as a pilot in training, and being born and raised in Denver, where they have a hub, I may very well end up working for them in a handful of years.

[@chainarongsuparanon4621]

I’m surprised to see hot meal being served on this flight. My flight from Aruba to Chicago with a similar flight time served the same as US domestic service which mean some crackers and drinks. May be because of US pre-clearance in Aruba makes the flight become US domestic?! 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@gobbledygook5786]

If you were flying with United, they count the Caribbean and Intercontinental US as Domestic service, and therefore even travelling a four-five hour flight from Aruba wouldn’t classify as International service. I don’t think it has anything to do with pre-clearance though. I smell cost cutting however.

[@toddsholtis4470]

The flight occurred in 2019...now all is cut back and will not return!

A two hour delay? This is why EWR is to be avoided for connections, because this is so common. That said, I fly UA all the time (from ORD) and have your flight experience pretty much every time. Good crews, comfortable economy plus seating (I’m 6’5”) and meals on longer flights. Can’t think of the last bad flight I’ve had with them. And, being based near Chicago, you’d be shocked to hear that my flights are usually quite punctual. Enjoyed this review- thank you!

I flown with United on their old B777-200ER from Houston to Frankfurt, back in 2016. the IFE system only offered live channels, non of the channels were interesting. and no movies or tv shows. It was the worst flight I ever been on. The flight was about 9-10 Hours. The food... wasn't that good for long haul, they only had one dinner service and only snacks later on. I had a window seat. + The legroom wasn't good for 10 hours. And I rate that experience a 2.5/5.
