United Air Basic Economy | What to Expect in Basic Economy | Life With Favor

[@jonathan12lucky]

Just stumbled on your video after searching up “basic economy United airlines.” Wasn’t sure what that meant vs. the “economy” tier. Now I have a clear picture of what to expect on upcoming trip (Atlanta-Newark). I however have one question... can we get to the gate early enough and request to change your seat to a window seat? I have flown with Spirit many times already and 8/10 it was a success outcome. But this may be my first flight with UA so I just want to make sure I could when I fly out... great and informative video btw!

Hello friend..... great video/ info on this airline. I’ve never flown United. I’m a real chicken when it comes to Flying 😳. Thanks for sharing. Hope your staying safe. Big hugs my friend 😊.

This is great, tha ks for the info! . I’m a die hard Southwest flyer but recently tried Frontier and Spirit and loved them both. I also use Hopper and United flights have been real cheap. I will be trying them next.

[@LifeWithFavor]

Funny because I have just recently tried Southwest and loved them! We fly by the best price so nice to have several airlines to choose from. Have a safe flight, thank you for watching!

So I can use a normal sized Nike duffel bag for my personal item and that’s free? It meets the length / sizes.

[@LifeWithFavor]

Hi! You can use any bag as long as it fits the size requirement and it will be free. I have seen all sorts of bags used. United does check every bag so make 100% sure it fits the size requirements. Happy flying!

I really appreciate this! I fly for my very first time next week! I am 15 and 6 ft tall!

[@LifeWithFavor]

Have a safe flight! I am glad I could help! Thank you for watching!

[@JustinGreenVlog]

Life With Favor thank you. I also forgot to mention I’m flying economy not basic.

2 seat assignments for $30 is a good deal. I would of done that. But my recent purchase I got bargin tickets that were super low. $58 dollars per way per person. But for seat assignment it would have been an additional $40 per person per way for a total of $160 total round trip. So I'm taking the chance for seat assignment. We are going to arrive at the at the airport 3 hours in advance in hopes to be seated together. 🤞🤞

[@LifeWithFavor]

Usually if tickets are purchased together you will be assigned together but not always. I know it is unnerving.. You can also ask to have your seat reassigned together at the gate agent. Last effort once everyone is on board and seated usually you can ask a flight attendant if you may move your seat. Often if you ask someone to trade seats they will if they are in the middle.. aisle seats and window seats are hard to get someone to trade. Have a safe flight! Hugs!

I have flight on next week with united airlines, the bag dimensions they mentioned was 158cm and my bags was 160cm, this leads to any problem with dimensions , will they concentrate on weight or dimensions plz reply

[@BoosCruize]

Yay so glad to see your face! I of course watched even tho I know ALL about United since Jarell works for them LOL Cant wait for next vid! Xoxo

[@LifeWithFavor]

Wow! I would love to work for an airline! I hope he is not facing a furlough.. I've been watching flight attendant channels and they are struggling, I hope you guys are not experiencing that, too. This is such a hard time for so many! Thank you for watching my friend. Hugs!!!

[@BoosCruize]

Life With Favor sadly yes he is furloughed. They have done it to THOUSANDS of their employees and it’s very sad and scary. It can last a year or more at times. At least when he DOES go back he doesn’t have to start over with seniority etc. Ugh....what a TIME huh? Sending you and the fam love! Grandma too!

[@BloomingJoy]

Thanks for all the info it was great! ...I have a question we're flying basic economy soon with my kids who are toddlers should we purchase seats or will they really separate our toddlers from us?

[@LifeWithFavor]

Hi there! I would recommend purchasing seats. The computer doesn't recognize you have toddlers and doesn't always group bookings together. Me personally I would not chance it. Have a safe flight and thank you fro watching!

[@jetlibog3011]
