I'm a Delta loyalist and feel the same way about their 763's and 738's. These planes really tarnish Delta's otherwise excellent on board experience, but they're not quite as bad as this United 777! Tbh I rarely find myself on United and thought they were further along with their new cabin rollouts.
If you are disappointed that they aren't, you can blame the supply chain and chip shortages. These are constraints that shifted and United had no warning of this until months after their announcement of NEXT
I honestly prefer Delta’s 767-300s to their A330s, at least in economy, and I didn’t understand why people disliked them until I heard about the dated first class. It’s really a portion of their 737-800s that I dislike, and they’re the ones with the old IFE system that are getting retrofitted this year anyway.
On shorter flights, the B777 is actually optimal for business class (marketed as domestic First Class). True, the 2-4-2 configuration is tight, but the fact that the seats go lie-flat cannot be complained about in that scenario. However, it can be agreed that no seatback IFE in Economy is pretty disastrous.
From what I can tell United is planning on replacing them which is why their is no planned renovation. They really do suck though. Luckily the 787-10 has taken over some routes
Idk. I just flew a UA 773 to Europe in Premium, and it was great! On the flight home, I got a 763 (literally the oldest one in their fleet), but I paid for Economy Extra Legroom, and it was fantastic! Maybe I just got lucky.
That’s true, but they’ve enhanced the interiors of the 300s. And most of the 200s. There’s just this sub-fleet of 200s for domestic routes that remains forgotten.
Even other US carriers, who still have these old 777-200s still flying with them, has done even a WAY BETTER JOB than United keeping these older 200/200ERs still looking fresh and modern, despite them being more than 25 years old!! American Airlines, who's been flying the 200ER since 1999, has a retrofitted cabin now on all 777-200ERs, even if the 200ER retrofit happened about 8-9 years ago, the cabin still looks fresh, even by today's standards with an ample IFE seat back screen, and mood lightning. AA really did an excellent job hiding the age of the 200ER. Delta (even though they retired all their 777-200s back in 2020) has made the planes look modern and fresh in 2018-2019 on their 200ERs and LRs with the new Delta One seats, and it received positive feedback, and they also did an excellent job hiding the age of their aircraft as well, too back they retired them all early, since the retrofit was only done 1-2 years before COVID, but it wasn't their fault. I wish United really put their new cabins on ALL 777-200s no matter the age!
I love the United Club fly lounge in Denver. You can usually see me stock up on lots of snacks and drinks every time I go. To the point my carry on bag is completely full so I don’t really have to do much grocery shopping when I get home. I hope to try the new United Club in Chicago soon too. I do like how cheap the WiFi is though. Never really had many issues with it when I have bought it in the past
@@hus390 if you have access to the United Club Fly lounge, then yea the food and drinks are free for you to take. Personally I kinda wish there were more than one location as of right now but, I’m content with what we have currently. WiFi isn’t free yet but, I am glad that it’s not much compared to American.
FINALLY!! I cannot stand those "High Density" -200s, united always gives me the options with these trashy -200s, but I got lucky and found a 777-300ER flying from HNL-SFO on a redeye and polaris was cheap, so I got the upgrade and it was the best flight ever!
Flew on 777-200 to and from my vacation this summer in economy plus. To my destination it had the screen, charger ports and other newer stuff and going back home it only had the chargers and was still economy plus so it depends on plane age what it has I guess. (Only plane trouble was the cargo hull before the flight)
thanks for saving me from booking mco--msp one way on UA! now I found out that mco-ord route was one of the routes this plane flies, its despicable it has no ife/avod, the only reason i wanted to fly on ua is because I've never been on a 777 in my life but i guess i'll steer clear
The 1st 777 was operated by Cathay Pacific and is now retired. United was the lunch operator of the 777 so the first airline to use this plane. The first 777 (777-200 with Trent 800, originally built for Boeing Company) was delivered to Cathay in 2000 if I’m not wrong.
It’s a good review you just sound so ungrateful to be flying and especially on a 777 on a domestic route I know it’s not the best service but it’s still not the worst
Im one of the few that dont care about IFE for 5 hour domestic flight tbh. Give me a window seat and I'm happy:) I always fly southwest for that reason. But if I have to option to fly a 777 on a domestic route I will for sure
United should paint one of these domestic 777s in the Rising Blue livery. These Tulip fanboys need to be put in their place because they forgot which airline these dormitory business seats and the idea of screenless econ seats came from. The Continental business class is outdated for 2010s standards, but when it came out in 2009, it was competitive and much better than Tulip Airline's business class. Oh, and let's not forget that all of Continental's widebodies had screens in economy, Continental was even installing seatback screens onto their narrowbodies, hence why United's 737s even had DirecTV in the first place. Meanwhile, even some of Tulip Airlines's long-haulers like 747s and some 777s don't have IFE screens. I know that some Tulip fanboys are going to say that Continental was the worse one just because Smisek took over from 2012-2015, but that's like saying "US Airways preferred Boeing widebodies" because AA took a lot of Boeing widebodies and cancelled A350 orders under Parker/Isom, or saying "Boeing's problems didn't come from MD" because Mullenberg, CEO when the MAX crashes happened, didn't come from MD

I flew on a brand new United 777 from Chicago to Seattle in 1995. It was amazing back then.😊

I just had the...pleasure of a Delta 767-300 back from Hawaii. Definitely will be a similar conclusion.

I just flew on one from Houston to Denver, it was great. You hardly could feel you were in the air and the landing was so smooth.

I'll tell you what sucks: Your voice!! Get it sorted or look to be a regular journo - with pen and paper.

77X in UAL's fleet is a whole different animal compare to those old -200A "cattle carts".
Why did I watch this video..lol. Im planning a flight on one of these in a few weeks
Haha Same I’ve got the Newark to La trip coming soon on it. How did it work out?

to be fair, the PW grounding is completely on PW, not the fault of United or Boeing
How comfortable were the seats? I remember when United had the 3-3-3 configuration in economy on the 777-200/200ERs.
Don’t fly if you’re going to be this way. Be happy you got to fly.
He’s giving advice, how ignorant are you???
Why blame the airline, or in this case the aircraft, for flight delays that are caused by traffic and not mechanical problems?
The first flight went mechanical…
@@maxsaviation9512you're more ignorant than he is
You sound like my parents. 🙄🙄🙄

Hahaha...yep! I always choose this red eye when coming back from HNL to SFO in order to fly in the newer Polaris cabin.
I generally kinda agree. But my fav aircraft is 777. Apparently the 200ERs are waaaayyyyy better.
Bring your own device entertainment makes these more bearable. Honestly, imho, not that bad
Flew on 777-200 to and from my vacation this summer in economy plus. To my destination it had the screen, charger ports and other newer stuff and going back home it only had the chargers and was still economy plus so it depends on plane age what it has I guess. (Only plane trouble was the cargo hull before the flight)
Yep, that's the two different configurations for you. the "International" 777s are the nicer ones.
@@Travelog the flight back home was a night flight so limited entertainment didn’t matter. Also it was a 8 hour flight
Any flight that gets you there without crashing is a good flight!.....So,stop moaning and complaining.........❤
Those things are so awful. Even first class has middle seats! Some of the domestic ones do have IFE though.
this makes eva air’s a330 (and most legacy asian carriers i’ve flown) look good in comparison
Just one more reason why I love living in Seattle...Alaska Airlines.
I too love Alaska, but United here isn’t the only airline with parts of the plane falling from the sky now is it…
thanks for saving me from booking mco--msp one way on UA! now I found out that mco-ord route was one of the routes this plane flies, its despicable it has no ife/avod, the only reason i wanted to fly on ua is because I've never been on a 777 in my life but i guess i'll steer clear
i would prefer you to take the boeing 777-300ER.
The first 777 in the world is operated by United
N777UA. Delivered to United on 5/15/95 at PDX...I was there! Saw that plane again this past March in DEN.
The 1st 777 was operated by Cathay Pacific and is now retired. United was the lunch operator of the 777 so the first airline to use this plane. The first 777 (777-200 with Trent 800, originally built for Boeing Company) was delivered to Cathay in 2000 if I’m not wrong.
@@Youtub77WCorrect. And it is on static display at the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson.
These are old triple 7's. Like 2002.
Even older than that!

@santiagoornelas6756 totally agree and even then you can still get ife via ur phone
Just flew this from HNL-LAX.. wtf was this.. was not worth the $30 I saved with this other than delta or Hawaiian.. I felt as if it was like 2005

The best livery united had was battleship grey
777 slander
Hey the refitted 777-300s or even 200s are great…as long as they don’t go mechanical
Very bad
