United Airlines Its time to fly New First Class

[3starproductions1]

I fly standby and I hate it when they oversell. :(

[HomburgandScotch]

All American airlines are hopeless.



[triciang1995]

omg! i wish i have money:(

[kabibimon]

it's actually really good

[lee92289154]

nothing compared to singapore airlines

[lucasboden]

Can I get a Root Canal during my 16 hour flight to Korea?

[codejd]

We were fortunate enough to get on board this aircraft from ORD>AMS earlier in the month. The seat is simply fabulous, the service was exemplary and I actually wished the flight was longer!

The return flight we were not so lucky getting the older configuration which really pales in comparison, in fact it's an absolute shame .

[GamingAirlines]

i wish i can draw like that!

[dableeper]

@GamingAirlines they probably just did it using a blendingeffect and a wacom tablet

[brkitdwn]

beautifully done UNITED! impressive! now hire some intelligent res agents!

[hannahbabe99xxxxxx]

I love united first and business my mum is a flight attendant if united and I always fly first or buissness

[wersdxfd]

Wat really sucks is that this Friday I'm flying with them I'm twelf and my sis is 14 we have to sit in coach and after seeing what business and first class gets I want to cry:(

[CathayGuy]

I flew you guys to Beijing from Dulles last month in first. I was surprised to see a 14 hour flight not have the new first class. However, my mother flew out of Dulles on the same plane in the evening to Frankfurt had the new 777 first class. I was upset because first is expensive. But, still great service! Like none other!

[MyleneJ]

@CathayGuy We're still in the process of outfitting All of our widebody aircraft with the new seats, it takes time unfortunately. However, I am personally glad to hear you enjoyed the service and hope you fly enough to see and experience the New first and Business class seating.

[hannahbabe99xxxxxx]

My mum works for united airlines

[wwttcc]

I've experienced this seat and boy is it excellent! After a 13 hour flight you actually wish the flight was a bit longer.

[humbertsin1994]

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't United the only north american airline that offers a 3 class cabin?

[psjosh1]

@humbertsin1994 American does too.

[humbertsin1994]

@psjosh1 true, but they are inferior cos they do not have lie-flat business class and economy plus =)

[humbertsin1994]

Very few people pay for first class outta their pockets. the people who pay for first class are paid for by their companies. Others are frequent fliers who paid for business class and get upped.

[ScottysAIr]

Wow! What is absolutely beautiful new United First Class and it was so incredible brand new F class.

[brinpol]

Nice, and one of the better American airlines for flying international. But, still behind the premier Asian and Middle Eastern companies...

[wwttcc]

For goodness sakes new United better keep its true first class. Those seats are incomparably superior to most other offerings available today. Continental's "BusinessFirst" (not quite first class, not quite business class) is a decent Business Class product but not in the same league as International United First.

[redsd2121]

why do only rich people get to enjoy this kinda stuff? why can't there be an airliner company that makes all of their planes 100% like this and doesnt segregate the rich from the normal people

[phatbimmer]

@redsd2121 because most rich people worked their ass off and probably payed 9 dearly to be rich. The rest are born in rich or snobs but they deserve luxury if you wish to pay the price. Economy is for normal average joe who has an hourly job middle class etc..

[Emilyrichmont]

@redsd2121

You don't have to be rich to enjoy these. If a family member works for an airline, you can either fly free or discounted on first/business class if it is available. But one pain is that you have to fly stand-by and you have to wait for a seat for you. I don't even think people pay full price for these seats! Who pays over $7,000+ On just a seat o_o.

[xXUNCLETONYXx]

AIR CANADA

[CaliDude1984]

Can someone tell me if I can get this type of seat flying from LAX to Toronto (nonstop)... ??

[xXUNCLETONYXx]

@CaliDude1984

I suggest flying Air Canada, very nice people and the interior for both classes is absolutly amazing!

[CaliDude1984]

@xXUNCLETONYXx thanks! will do :)

[humbertsin1994]

@xXUNCLETONYXx completely untrue. air canada is world renowned for terrible service. plus, they have no real for class, only a business class offering.

[5233andy]

United still needs to fix its economy class.

[JUKIO01]

i flew in that 3 times going to italy and back. was actually really comfortable

[scales1234]

i flew bussiness class with emirates from dubai to london gatwick and it was much better than that!!

[hawk45653]

united has da best cuz the shell is totaly surroundiong u

[garlex134]

I like how every airline in the world are all introducing new seats, but they always look like another airlines.

[shoykhetm]

United stole this ide from us airways

[TomsFriendKake]

USAir's new Envoy suite looks just as nice and they face out the window, furthermore, I like USAir's new Envoy color palette. It's bright and fresh colors, not dark colors like this. What are looking at is United first class seat. United's business class seat pales in comparison to the new Envoy seat as well as Continental' s and Delta's new business class seats. USAir really stepped up on their A330's, and in my opinion, they have the best seats for business class now.

[fultzracing]

flying united first class form chicago O hare to london no monday looks nice never flown united first class

[thejack544]

not very first class to me, emirates and singapore airlines business class is like this,their first class is way ahead of this

[travelader]

i wonder how the American airlines' first class compares to the leaders. Looks quite good here.

[bddb09]

What is going to happen to the cabin when UAL and CAL merge?

[MyleneJ]

@bddb09 They're going to maintain United's Cabin Product.

The First and Business class seats on the wide-body aircraft, and the P.S. services.

And the standard First, Economy plus, and Economy on narrow-body flights

[ie210]

and i thought that their new business class could qualify for a first class..impressed. Im happy at the path United is taking, no more are they caring about only making money, they finally realized that if you want to make money, you have to make people actually want to fly with you. The service is improving, the workers are no longer so irascible but their 777 cabins could get a re-do

[brinpol]

@ie210 The funny thing is, the bulk of revenue comes from business class seats. First and economy bring in the same amount of revenue, more or less...

[uycana]

Looks like a Business class for Cathay Pacific and Singapore Airlines.

[MyleneJ]

@CamieTheGreat Give me a list of these airlines, and i'll give you the level of how much farther out the ass you have to pay to get the same, or better in flight experience.

[gabrielvarig]

I really don't see much sense in flying heading backwards. It feels weird...

[Lovemysis321]

these r only for 8 hour or longer trips most airlies have couch like seats and more comforable arrangements :)

[parsimony1902]

SQ offers this level in their new business class.

[JUKIO01]

i really like the way they designed first class for united. i slept so well, it was comfortable

[zacskye]

heyyy if u ever wana go on there plane on unitet airline first class go on to bargian travel . com first class on united airline is like 1.260

[davinhardoyo]

o_O i can only dream sitting there lol :D btw, why do people want first class?? isnt it enought until business class... i think its a waste of money... i think...

[EpicSlug]

Because when you have enough money you need to find something to spend it on ;p

[davinhardoyo]

well, you have a point, still, you can save a lot of money by just applying to business class with just a little different from the first class

[galacticempire19bby]

Most people don't buy first or business; they earn miles and upgrade. That's about 60-75% I think.

[matrixwalker]

@davinhardoyo

it's not that much more expensive than business if you use miles to redeem. I had a choice between business and first and the diff was only 10,000 miles each way, so it was worth it for a 14 hour flight. I ended up in the older first class suite, but from my experience, the older suite is better on one feature, the desk above the seat to place a laptop that's missing on the new suites...

[chloecica]

I'm a United fan... they're so cool! The new First class seats are absolutely fabulous, but I love Economy Plus too.... more legroom for sure, and Channel 9 just makes my day!

[lucabrasi1337]

I'm getting a little sick of all the pandering to 1st class customers. How about a couple inches of extra legroom for the cattle? We are the ones who keep your airplanes full. Uniteds "Economy PLUS" is a great first step.

[EpicSlug]

@lucabrasi1337 learn this lesson now: in life you get what you pay for and sometimes less than what you pay for but never ever more.

[lucabrasi1337]

That's the reason I fly myself or, if I have to, United when I go overseas. Economy Plus works just fine for me and it's a freebie when I flash my military ID. American treats it's cattle like dogshit. I'll never set foot on another one of their Airplanes.

[sp8211a]

When you pay 14,000 for a first class ticket to Australia...then you can bitch. Perhaps economy is keeping the plane full, but that is NOT where the majority of the profit is from...it's from the business class and first class passengers. I am a 1K and traveled over 160000 miles last year and my company always BOUGHT me a business class ticket (albeit a discounted business class fare since United is our "preferred airline)...so, a packed economy does not mean profit

[MrIranzamin]

nothing beats AC

[acarr3rd]

Ok, clueless people. Delta Airlines does not even offer "FIRST CLASS". They only offer two classes of service on thier aircraft, BusinessElite and economy. United offers true FIrst Class service and Business class service, along with two classes of economy service. Having flown both United and Delta, United's international FIRST class service is far superior to Delta's.

[sp8211a]

I used to be plat med on Delta and now I am 1K on United...all I can say is that both airlines flight attendants on international routes are as old as dirt!

[MyleneJ]

@sp8211a They may be old, but that's because International routes are "High Seniority" Routes, some flight attendants can work for 20 years at an Airline before they have enough "Juice" to be able to hold an International flight line bid. That said, Old or not, UA Still has some of the Best FA's in the Sky.

[sp8211a]

@MyleneJ I am sorry but I don't agree; how often do you fly? I just got back from PVG (Shanghai) to LAX/ORD, first class with United new configuration on the 777; the flight attendant was cranky and IMO was inferior to any Asian airline...just standing the facts...

[MyleneJ]

@sp8211a how often do I fly? I'm On board some form of UA aircraft almost 5 days a week, and have been for the past 26 years of my life, That's how often. Seen first hand the evolution of Uniteds cabin product over those 26 years, and gotten to know many of the flight attendants on the routes i fly by name. And I'm sorry, I'd still rather have an intelligent and experienced Flight attendant on my flight over a 22 year old Bimbo with a Beverage cart.

[sp8211a]

@MyleneJ Well, then if you fly that must and you believe that the flight attendants are the BEST FA's in the sky, you are either a flight attendant or by some luck have gotten nothing but superior flight attendants, which is amazing. I asked my friends the other night at dinner who are either 1K or Global Services (we are consultants) and the mutual response was that the flight attendants on the INTERNATIONAL legs are old, tired, and cranky. So, I wish you continue luck on your journeys...

[sp8211a]

So does that mean that all of the 22 yo flight attendants are bimbos? 

[MyleneJ]

@sp8211a No, it doesn't but I get quite fed up listening to people who think that the flight attendant profession should be nothing but Young "Pretty" Girls. Heaven forbid anyone be allowed to work to retirement age. Its sexist, and ignorant to believe that. Just because you don't have something you can ogle like a horny schoolboy doesn't mean that your 'old' flight attendant is any less qualified to do her job. And as far as I'm concerned, qualifications are more important than looks.

[TXbrokeback]

@sp8211a No, you flew on a United 777; that is a FACT. You felt that their product "IMO was inferior to any Asian airline" . THAT is an OPINION.

[TXbrokeback]

@sp8211a No, you flew on a United 777; that is a FACT. You felt that their product "IMO was inferior to any Asian airline" . THAT is an OPINION And, IMHO, you cannot judge an entire AIRLINE from ONE employee.

[sp8211a]

@TXbrokeback Don't need the grammar lessons but thanks none-the-less...and I am judging the entire airline based on many, many experiences not just one...

My opinion is not alone, if you look at the subjective rankings of others e.g. skytrax, the Asian airlines are ranked much higher than UA or any US based airlines...

[pjc858]

@acarr3rd Delta however has free range to make BizElite as high class as they can as they do not have a higher product to make it look inferior to justify an individual paying more for F vs. J (since J is as high as it gets). It's the same with CO with BizFirst. Now is BizFirst and BizElite as nice as UA Int'l F? More than likely not, but they are up there.

[MegaFcker]

@acarr3rd and far more expensive the only thing is united's customer service is the worst

[dableeper]

@acarr3rd you are right and wrong there. They do offer first class domestically.

[ATLtripulacion]

@acarr3rd United International First isn't bad, but I think it's a stretch to call the inflight product far superior to BusinessElite or even United Business. Fact is, UA and AA int'l F products aren't really very differentiated from their C class products. All three of these airlines offer decent premium cabin products, and I've had many enjoyable flights with each of them, but they pale in comparison to some of the foreign flag competition. Sad but true.

[chicagoalp]

delta airlines has better flat bed seats

[jfas2323]

i dont think so buddy they dont even have first class seats and the only planes delta have flat are on the 777 LR so those are only 2 !! on fleet , United have exc premium service , you sure try it!

[chicagoalp]

you must not fly delta because you have no clue what your talking about!! most of deltas 767 aircraft that go international are new flat beds seat

[MyleneJ]

Maybe delta does have lay flat seats in First Class on their 67's but, United has Lay Flat seats in both United First and United Business on all of their 3 Cabin aircraft, B777 B747 B767 and their P.S. Premium Service B757s.

For all the people that knock United, need to take a step back and think about why they're complaining. 25 years of Flying on United, and Ive never had One poor experience. Period.

[hoyahenrys]

unless your that guy that united broke his guitar

[sp8211a]

@MyleneJ That is amazing!

[TheCARRE74]

Hello!Nice pictures of new first class of United Airlines!=)

I give you 5 star for this film!=)

Greeting TheCARRE74=)

[USBritBoy]

ok appllesweeeter y do u post on evry vid that qestion .......intention seeker.....?

[applesweeter]

Dear All,

I have some questions about psychology:

*Why do we love flying and being in the sky?

*What is so amazing and exciting about air travelling that motivate us to fly over and over again?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!!

[brewdog11]

If you can afford to fly first class, then you shouldn't waste your money flying on United.

[peteboy1113]

whats the name of this song.

[MarcusLeepapi]

Yeah, it is still George Gershwin's - Rhapsody In Blue....... It is a great song... Yeah, my airline. That is me in the middle of my default picture on my site....With my bald head....

[peteboy1113]

[jimbotrains]

just got home 30mins ago, flew 767 SFO-ORD first class, AMAZING

[EpicSlug]

not with this seat this seat is only available on international flights.

[jimbotrains]

haha no offense but yes it was. I think that the 767 that i flew on went on to fly somewhere overseas, im probably wrong tho.

[ruttsy42]

Just tried it. Syd to LAX. Outstanding!

[dwtheman]

anyone know if the ua 895 flight is upgraded yet?

[elferen1]

[aircraftfreak94]

[glindsay830]
