I mean, let's be honest... It doesn't have to be wearing the United livery to be awful. It doesn't matter what livery it wears... All CRJ-200 are awful for passengers haha 🤣 Now, I've heard many pilots say they love flying the CRJ-200's, but flying them from up front vs flying them in seat 12A are very different haha. Great video as always my friend!
United is many leagues above AA and Southwest. Below DL for sure, but I'd take a UA CRJ across the country over any WN flight because at least you have a chance at getting off the ground.
@@parkerjon29 actually, all CRJs are technically not UA planes, and they are technically not Delta planes (with the exception of Endeavor Air planes) or AA planes (with the exception of PSA planes, Envoy planes, and Piedmont planes). Rather, they are either Skywest planes, Air Wisconsin planes, Mesa planes, etc.
Denver Air Connection which is a subsidiary of Key Lime Air have been serving smaller markets across the USA, using the funny looking Dornier 328 Jet and the Embraer 145.
They could use Cr9's or even the E-jet series, tbh. ERI can land those. The 200 crj was novel when it started but there have been so many improvements since then that it's becoming antiquated.
Im a huge fan of your videos! you have made me realize the passion I have for aviation. Thank you for your videos and I hope you continue to this wonderful content. One day I hope I can fly so frequently as you do and enjoy the experiences. Thanks for what you do and keep it up!
I rode on BART on a regular basis to college, and I was at SFO several months ago; so this video definitely hits home for me. Merry Christmas by the way!
I flew one of these for the first time last summer from South Bend Indiana to O'Hare. It was defintiely one of the most cramped experiences on a jet I've ever been on. As a 6' 2" person, I picked an aise seat which helped as i wasnt constrained by the curvature of the plane but still would avoid unless I have to. Thankfully the flight is only a 25 minute ride from south bend to o'hare so it was bearable but any longer would have me questioning my life choices lol
We have it from here in Fort Wayne too and I’ve always questioned why there’s over 5 flights a day from sbn/fwa to Ohare lol. Only a 4 hour drive and a 10th of the price.
I'm getting ready to do that exact route and it'll be on this exact plane. I'm dreading it. I'm 6'3 370lbs and I booked business class for the rest of my flight (and even that is going to be marginal) but united doesn't have anything else serving SBN anymore. I'd say there's a 50/50 chance I'll be running into the "hey fat ass, buy another seat"
5:25 - I worked the 200 for 2 years. They don’t have very good air conditioning system. They were absolute hell in the summertime. Very very rarely will you get one with decent air
That’s funny I was just on a cj200 today and the apu was broke so the air conditioning did not work I was drenched in sweat by the time we were ready for takeoff
For me the CRJ-200 is one of those bad experiences I just love to have. This is the only plane where I love sitting in the back just to hear the loud engines.
I flew a CRJ 200 from Dallas to Santa Fe, New Mexico a few weeks ago in a blizzard. The plane is so claustrophobic; I had severe anxiety and had to beg the person sitting in the aisle to switch seats with me as I was in the cramped rear window seat.
Not gonna lie, this video reeks of nostalgia for flying in the 2000s post 9/11, but pre 2010. Right before IFE and WiFi became an individualized thing at each seat. An era where I literally remember being allowed to play on my Nintendo DS but having to shut it off during takeoff and landing (I can't imagine that happening now). I think that rule got changed about 10 years ago. I remember flying on quite a few of these CRJ flights, and they were tolerable for a 40-45 minute flight from Columbus to Cinncinatti or Columbus to Detroit.
Great review of a not-so-great plane. A tip for anyone placing personal items under the seat in front of you. After take-off, pull the item out and place it under your legs. You get your legroom back and still have access to your gear. Key on small planes like the CRJ but great for big planes too.
I’m set to fly on a United CRJ 200 from Chicago O’hare to South Bend, IN in a few days from now. I also got myself assigned the same seat for the short flight.
The thing I hate most about the CRJ series: Regular sized 22x14x9 carryon bags won’t fit in the overhead bins I flew on one from phoenix to Salt Lake City in the first row and the gate agent put the tag on my bag. I asked “Do you have to take it?” He said “Unfortunately it won’t fit in the overhead bins, but you can try” I tried and it didn’t fit. As I was seated in the bulkhead I had no underseat storage but the flight attendant kept my Nintendo switch in the coat room during takeoff and landing
Thanks for the video! Yes they were revolutionary when they first came out and replaced the prop planes seen on most of those routes, but now they’re nearing the end of widespread spread service with with regionals. In their defense, you’ll likely only see them on short flights, like the 35 minutes flight you were on. Most longer flights will see the larger and newer planes.
Worst part of the CRJ-200 is that you almost always have to duck your heads when going to your seat, due to the overhead compartment being way too low. It is more like a schoolbus, but the flying variant
Read all of these bad reports on the CJ-200 and was very skeptical about flying on it. Been on 4 flights the last couple months. I was pleasantly surprised considering the bad press. Sat both over the wing and in the back. Just a bus with wings - it get's you there and gets you back. No frills, you get what you paid for - basic air transportation.
Pilot who has time on the jet, I loved this little turd, but definitely different worlds from up front and the back! Side note: no air during push back is because of the engine start, And Scratches are common even on new planes due to air flow over certain parts! not sure if ya know, but safe travels amigo!
I live in Fort Wayne, IN which has a smaller, non-hub airport and I have been on many CRJ-200s before Delta Connections recently upgraded our service with the much nicer CRJ-900s. I don't hate the 200 as much as some people do, but they are undeniably inferior to pretty much any other commercial jet currently operated. The only time I've had a truly comfortable flight on one was when I once sat in the very front row (classified as comfort+ by Delta lol) giving me extra leg room and the seat next to me was unoccupied. The only real defense I can give them, as pointed out by others, is they make smaller municipal airports viable that wouldn't be able to stay open otherwise.
As someone who takes nearly 100 flights a year with united and half of those being on CRJ 200 flights 1.5-2Hr flights. I was thrilled when I heard united was dumping air Wisconsin and the CRJ200s. They’re not bad for 30 minute flight segments but united was constantly using them for 2hr flights while cutting the use of A318s or ERJ-175s at regional airports to save money. They did start heading the right direction with the CRJ 550s with having first class. But I’m on a 2HR flight to Denver in (You guessed it) another CRJ 200.
@@michaelsharp3615 i saw the article after I commented. Looks to be a temporary thing but I hope its not as its a good idea to use those crj900's as crj700, e170, and maybe even e175 70 seat limited aircraft.
At least weather in San Francisco is usually okay but not always with rain when deplaning and boarding airports like Denver for this are the worst which recently expanded their terminal concourses
The problem is, the CRJ-550 is operated by GoJet. They don't operate out of SFO currently. They only have so many CRJ-550's. SFO-RNO also uses a Skywest E175 and a mainline 737-800 on the evening departure. There are options.
this is the nature of short routes, you are lucky they didn't fly this route using tiny propeller planes like alaska airlines do. at least you were on a jet.
I flew on one of those owned by Skywest and it was Delta Connection back in 1999 there plane were brand new back in these days not beat up and chewed up like it is now.
Flew on one of these earlier this week which was my first time flying, and will never fly on one of these again. Too small and was sweating bullets for the 45m flight because I also didn’t have an AC
I usually take Sam Trans between SFO and the city because of the surface views and because I'm cheap. My go to food spot at the United hub is Koi Palace - also because I'm cheap! Looks like a single-class cabin; I mean, even those 700s and 175s United Express uses within California at least have a First section. I actually thought all the majors have gotten rid of all single-class regionals! Now I'm intrigued LOL! - Red
The reason for united not to force their regional partners to improve the crj200 fleet is probably that they expect the downsides won’t significantly affect the overall experience as they make sure nobody will be riding one for too long.
It's always bumpy landing in Reno......I flew in a few years ago on a bigger international flight from Canada and it was like being on a roller coaster.....I guess the desert winds play a factor in it...
Great video! I heard the “flight attendant” mention liking your “little camera.” Could I ask which camera you use to film your videos? Just curious :) Thanks!
Several years ago a couple of irresponsible pilots managed to crash a CRJ200 in Jefferson City after taking it on a joyride during a repositioning flight.
UA Express had those briefly flying SCK to LAX before the pandemic. As miserable as the CRJ-200 is; it was nice to have an alternative to driving to SMF, SFO or OAK.
Being from Boise and somewhat of a UA frequent flier, I’ve had plenty of opportunities to fly the CRJ200… United refused to grow at all in boise until recently, so we were getting like 10 of those a day.
You said that this was the bumpiest flight you have ever been on. Do you blame this on the airline? I don't understand the significance of that comment.
The bright side is, the CRJ-200 is literally the only airliner that continuously refreshes cabin air instead of recycling it! Here's how the CRJ-200 does it: th-cam.com/video/Z53BP65un2Y/w-d-xo.html Of course, HEPA filters mean that recycled cabin air isn't a problem, but, still, it's awesome what the CRJ-200 does in this regard 😃
Not even us Flight Attendants like flying them. I like the smaller planes because I don't have to play nicely with another flight attendant, which is a nice break once in a while, but the CRJ 200 blows.
CRJ-200's are very attractive on the outside, but they are cramped. Because I'm relocating to Appleton, WI in a couple of months, I know my future will have me flying on them again.
I flew on the CRJ many times. The boarding and disembarkation are so easy. Quick in and easy out. Never a problem. If you can stand driving in a compact car for 2 hours why complain about the plane?
I have flown it between Houston and Amarillo a number of times. I personally hate it. If I cant get in the first 3 rows or the exit I won't do it. Im 6'7 so that makes it hard too.
CRJ's don't have APU's and SFO might be for some reason using a bunch of AC carts on the bigger planes. Hence why no AC. Once the engines run you should be able to get AC (As long as you aren't taking off of course.)
@@boy2057 Sorry not an APU idk why I said APU as it needs to build pressure to run, But what I was trying to get at was that the APU doesn’t generate enough power/pressure when using the AC hence why it was likely off and is off for takeoff.
@@twisterman101new4 the engine bleeds provide air to the AC packs when they are running, so the APU is not required to be on when the engines are running. The only time the APU does not provide air for AC is during engine start sequence. Safe travels.
I can't speak for the CRJ-200 necessarily, but the CRJ-700 is one of the nicest airplanes to be a ground crew member for. A large aft cargo compartment you can stand up in, a single galley that you can service without disrupting boarding or deplaning, and they are low enough to the ground you don't even need a lift truck to cater them. I always prefer CRJ's to ERJ's.

Only defense I have of the CRJ-200 is they help serve smaller markets that cannot support a larger regional jet. Eg: Chicago-Erie PA.
Denver Air Connection which is a subsidiary of Key Lime Air have been serving smaller markets across the USA, using the funny looking Dornier 328 Jet and the Embraer 145.
Also Houston to Harrisburg,PA
That is a four hours non stop flight
Almost every commercial airport with airline service in Wyoming (aside from Jackson Hole) has the CRJ-200 as their only option.

Flying from sfo to Reno goes over the mountains and you get lots of convection currents which cause turbulence.
Ik he was bitching about something that the airline can’t control.
I've always loved flying on the CRJ
cute comfy little jet.. almost like a private jet
Being short does have some pros afterall
I had a short connecting flight on a CRJ-200 from ORD to MSN and it was one of the longest ones of my life.
Hi Chris, and Merry Christmas!
Are you a jazz musician? I love both jazz and aviation!

It’s a puddle jumper 1 hour flight use airplane it’s serves its purpose. And at the end of the day all that matters is that you get there safely
For a quick sec I thought 7:41 the passenger was wearing a Michael Myers mask 😂
The windows are so far apart lol
Next time if I choose United, I will not going to fly the CRJ-200 because it’s crap.
Great video presentation, Chris! Keep up the good work!

I used to be a flight attendant on those for 6.5 years. I kind of miss it sometimes
The last time I flew SFO to/from Reno was so long ago you had to use the commuter terminal and United Express was a 30-seat turboprop.

Hot and bumpy! Just how I like my pizza 🍕!!! As a 14 year past Tahoe resident flying into Reno is always bumpy af. 🙏

On a 30 minute flight you really need in flight entertainment???
Happy holidays from Maine bud!
Looks like something out of the late 80's early 90's
I’d rather drive than suffer in CRJ 200 for eternity

I loved the CJ ride from Chattanooga to Chicago 1 1/2 hour flight was cool. 4 stars for this plane.
9:48 Captain can't even stand up straight in the CRJ, hopefully he got hired by a mainline carrier
You should fly to telluride on Denver Air Connection 328 jet. Also have you thought about flying to Guam and possibly Saipan?
I flew on a Northwest CRJ-200 a few times. Back-killing seats, one attendant for 50 passengers!
Correct. That’s the FAA limit. By regulations, 50 passengers per flight attendant. 14 cfr 91.533
Crj200 is small, I'm a sorta fat, and the tray was up my gut LoL
The outside of the plane looks all new and stuff while the inside still looks the same

The reason for united not to force their regional partners to improve the crj200 fleet is probably that they expect the downsides won’t significantly affect the overall experience as they make sure nobody will be riding one for too long.
The CRJ200 is very cheap for Skywest to operate so they can pass the savings on to United

The worst thing about this plane specifically is how it’s operated by the worlds worst airline united 😂
Just flew one, Will NEVER fly this jet again. EVER!
What's your opinion of United Express, Embraer 145 or CRJ200?
My friend, without that jet you won’t be able to get to smaller airports with high terrain so respect it or drive instead!
United doesn't use CRJ’s anymore thank God!

I’m a flight attendant that flies these planes. It’s the only plane we fly that has 1 flight attendant! 😳
I personally prefer the ERJ 145 over the CRJ 200 mainly because of single seat side
Airlines charge premium prices for flights on antiquated, uncomfortable junk.
It’s not supposed to be nice… These are bare minimum planes, and believe me… as a ramp agent, it sucks to work on too.
Being from Boise and somewhat of a UA frequent flier, I’ve had plenty of opportunities to fly the CRJ200… United refused to grow at all in boise until recently, so we were getting like 10 of those a day.
You’ll basically be stuck with RJs at Boise since it’s a crew and mx base for Skywest which owns all those planes.
@@Micg51 you’d think. United is gonna be up to 5 daily mainline this summer, they cut about half of their daily rj flights from there
You said that this was the bumpiest flight you have ever been on. Do you blame this on the airline? I don't understand the significance of that comment.
Rode on this aircraft plenty of times, longest time I was in it the flight was from San Francisco to Tucson just a little over 2 hours.

@@boy2057 Sorry not an APU idk why I said APU as it needs to build pressure to run, But what I was trying to get at was that the APU doesn’t generate enough power/pressure when using the AC hence why it was likely off and is off for takeoff.
@@twisterman101new4 the engine bleeds provide air to the AC packs when they are running, so the APU is not required to be on when the engines are running. The only time the APU does not provide air for AC is during engine start sequence. Safe travels.
I remember a guy who was on one of these i flew from ord to Detroit and he was like 7 foot 300 lbs they had to rip out seats for him to fit
I can't speak for the CRJ-200 necessarily, but the CRJ-700 is one of the nicest airplanes to be a ground crew member for. A large aft cargo compartment you can stand up in, a single galley that you can service without disrupting boarding or deplaning, and they are low enough to the ground you don't even need a lift truck to cater them. I always prefer CRJ's to ERJ's.
I went to a snow mountain using I-80 to Reno and heading there requires chains on your tire to do that
It's worth mentioning that international United flights don't use Terminal 3 and instead use the very nice Terminal G
