  • We're flying United Polaris, from Paris to Washington DC, which is one of the only airlines in the world that offers ice cream sundae's at 30,000 feet in the air. This review will cover the lounge experience, a complete seat tour, and the food and service onboard. Have we finally answered the question of which is the best US airline?

    Awesome flight review Mark, I've been wanting to try United Polaris. And YES a flight without Lord of the Rings or Star Wars is a lesser flight.

    This may be the best Polaris video I’ve seen! Thank you! Also, I flew 1L a few months ago, and I have 12G tomorrow, and looking fwd to ice cream + warm nuts.

      Update: 12G is small compared to 1L. Lol.

    Great trip report. The Lord of the Rings in Star Wars test is such a great idea. Two of my favorite movie series of all time I’d say

    hi, just checked seats aero... does transferring UR to Virgin Atlantic enables me to book via Virgin Australia? I see lots of availability either Aeroplan, Alaska, AA, Qantas & Virgin Australia, thanks

    • @__withMark
      @__withMark  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I believe you can transfer UR to Virgin Atlantic then you need to call Virgin Atlantic to book via Virgin Australia. Best advice is to call Virgin Atlantic to confirm the process before transferring any points over

    Thanks for the breakdown. My highest priority is ability to sleep. How well did you sleep? How were your back, ne k and legs?

      Polaris bedding was very comfortable imo. No issues at all with space!

    hi Mark, did some additional research and unfortunately, Virgin Atlantic doesn't transfer to Virgin Australia Velocity... only Marriott transfers but 3:1... other YTs also confirmed this... also aside from Aeroplan, Velocity has the 2nd best availability on business class awards... maybe thats why... only Australians can access

      Thanks for getting back to me on this! Good to know for future reference

    Nice work! I flew Polaris for the first time recently. Pleasantly surprised. Best biz class bedding I’ve had so far. Nice seats. One passive aggressive cabin crew didn’t like we changed our minds and asked for express dining; otherwise very friendly staff. On the return I did need to wipe down the surfaces with three of their complimentary wet wipes since there were quite a few stains, but after that the rest of the fight was great.

    • @__withMark
      @__withMark  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Agree with the bedding, it was super comfortable. I can see cabin crew differing flight to flight especially since this is a US airline

  • @karenarocks5000
    @karenarocks5000 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Nice. And you have enough room to recline? I could t tell.

    • @__withMark
      @__withMark  10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yep, plenty of room for both lie flat and reclining!

    Some observations. Remote boarding on a long haul flight is not good. United's Polaris class seats are very nice, but I find Uniteds catering and service inconsistent.

    • @__withMark
      @__withMark  หลายเดือนก่อน

      To each their own when it comes to remote boarding. If its during the day, I'm personally a fan.
      Agreed that the Polaris seat was VERY comfortable. The lunch service was solid with the prawn dishes, but the pre-arrival meal left much to be desired.

    I like simply beautiful cabin like this ! I don’t like airlines when put colors on like Emirates, they push too much fancying looks odd

    For spending thousands of dollars in the sky? The food was not up to par with elegance and prestigious compared to other airlines. Or Maybe, it's just US airlines lol 😂

    Is there such a thing as a ‘good’ US airline? I think not, they are all terrible, period.
