    Thanks for your review. Avianca's 'business class' an the A320 is (at best) a premuim economy offering. Before COVID, I enjoyed their service, catering, and recliner seats, but since their bankruptcy, are another ultra low-cost carrier without the low-cost flights.

    Always great to see your videos. I recently got upgraded to first twice on one round trip with United (domestic US). It was okay, service felt kind of off-putting compared to premium economy/exit row. Also people were more rude to the stewardesses in first compared to economy imo. Still, the seat was big and I appreciated the big arm rest. I can see why people enjoy it.

    • @TheGentlemanofFortune
      @TheGentlemanofFortune 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Congrats on being upgraded. That’s always nice and you must be achieving status with the airline to make the upgrade cut. I’ve always felt that domestic first generally isn’t worth the dollar value cost for a paid upgrade. But if you are lucky enough to get upgraded on a regular basis, then you are definitely disappointed when you don’t score an upgrade. It’s too bad that the people were rude. There’s no excuse for that in any class.

      CX is about 2/3 the cost of Emirates on this route. But of course EK has the home field advantage with very impressive lounges in DXB. Business on CX is essentially double that of premium economy so you are paying a lot for that lay flat bed. I guess it comes down to how well you can handle a nearly 8 hour overnight flight.

    Wonderful review. I’ve flown Flagship on the 777-300ER LAX-MIA about half a dozen times over the last few years, unfortunately the Flagship Dining has always been closed. Still I’ve found the MIA Flagship Lounge and its buffet to be quieter than, and of at least a comparable quality to, the MIA Centurion Lounge, which I’ve also experienced a few times. Both lounges partially make amends for the MIA experience itself, which is not particularly enjoyable for me- too much walking required, and many MIA fellow travelers in the terminal seem to lack for courtesy and respect.

    As someone doing one to three short domestic trips a month, I find that there have definitely been a lot of delays/cancelations during the past 24 months. I dread ever having to hop on a flight with a connection, because it just increases the chances that the second flight will have issues etc. Anyways, I always make sure to bring a full setup whenever I travel (keyboard, mouse, mousepad, headphones, laptop, etc) to make sure that in the worst case scenario I can at least kill some time more easily than just sitting on my phone. Obviously it's a little more heavy but man does it make three or four hour delays more tolerable.

      That’s great advice. Do what you can to make the best of a bad situation. For years I have been hearing from some people, whom I considered pessimistic, that they hate flying because nothing ever seems to work. I only noticed it to be an issue for me when I was with these people, which led me to wonder if they were somehow manifesting the negative experience. I will say however that this year it has been nearly unavoidable. I was doing some math and I think that out of 15 flights in July, at least 9, on all different airlines, were delayed . I suspect that this will be an emphasis item for airlines going forward, so hopefully we will see some improvements.
