Full disclosure, since I get asked this all the time. 99% of what you see on my channel is filmed by hand. Even on long flights like this, I don’t typically use any type of mount to ensure the best possible final production. However, I did use a mount for the cruise portion of this flight. This flight was also my hotel for the night and I had a full day of flying once I landed in Amsterdam, so I had to get some sleep or I’d be exhausted the next day. I have yet to master holding the camera while sleeping 😂. So that makes this flight one of the rare exceptions where I did use a mount; at least for some of it. Enjoy!
the fact you film by hand on 6 hour flights is crazy, I can barely film landings for like 30 minutes so I couldn't imagine 6 hours straight of hand filming
I love these long haul full flight uploads. This is the perfect video to put on in the evening, enjoy the take off and views and then settle down for a good nights sleep.
With this flight being only 1/4th to 1/3rd full, this may be the best one for that, that I've ever posted. There really isn't much background noise besides the drone of the engines.
At 5:48 I feel his frustration… I’m a ramp agent my self and I can’t stand when other ramp agents or workers cross behind our planes when we’re pushing back and especially when they know we’re holding up the x and they ignore us and do it anyways, it’s extremely dangerous lol. I’m so surprised how empty it was! Lucky you to have an entire row to yourself! I’ve had a half row to my self once!
As someone who also worked on the ramp some back in my younger years, I too felt his frustration. Although, most of my time on the ramp was spent at small stations where we really didn't have a ton of traffic. I did some temporary duty though at larger cities and unfortunately this was a common occurrence, especially with contractors. As for the light load, I think that was mainly due to the time of year. Europe isn't necessarily a hotbed of activity for tourists in February haha. Thanks for watching my friend!
Awesome my friend! Listen, I'm one of the few people who won't get mad when someone says their videos put them to sleep 😂. I'm glad they can help you ease your mind and rest!
Cool shadow on the take off! You landed on 18R with that dreaded long taxi back, every time I flew long haul back to AMS the arrival was on that runway. Can imagine it's an annoyance for transfer passengers, a difference of 15 mins from 06.
Yeah, I had a lot of long taxis on this trip thanks to the one runway being closed. I was very familiar with the Polderbaan runway by the time the week was over haha.
WOWOWOWOW!!!! He's off on the next leg of his Amazing Race!! I thought that was Phil Keoghan I saw there handing you your next clue at the gate. Be sure to read the clue very carefully. One of the teams on last week's episode messed up spectacularly because they read their clue wrong. To my amazement, they weren't eliminated. I remember one season, there was this male gay couple team who came in first in one of the legs. When Phil told them the good news and also of the prize they won, they were understandably thrilled to pieces. One of the men grabbed Phill and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. It was hilarious to watch! From SEA, it's 9 hours to AMS , so you lose 9 hours in 9 hours! Back in Sept. 2000, I did the reverse coming back home from a 3 week trip to Turkey, and the headwinds cooperated, mild on this flight and we gained 9 hours in 9 hours. We took off from AMS and landed at SEA at exactly the same time - 3:10PM! Time quite literally stood still for me. And we also went up to the 72md parallel where we went over northern Baffin Island and was able to see the tidewater glaciers. We were more north than Barrow, AK and more north than all of AK for that matter. Well, anyhow, just 2 more days for you. They're actually pre-empting General Hospital so ABC can air the eclipse live. We're only going to get 20-30 percent coverage here, and the forecast is for overcast skies with rain and showers, so we're getting the short end of the stick. So... be sure to Drink The Ooze on your flight, document everything, and remember that it will be 7 years per hour while on board, so make every second count. And pray that you don't have anyone like Matt Damon on your flight. :)
Hey Skylite. Thanks so much for this video! My fav 777! Yes! I really enjoyed it. I gotta tell you, you always know how to keep me entertained, and right from the get-go! Not only did you finally travel on a 777 with the GE90s (albeit the 92s, not the 155Bs, but, who's complaining!), but you guys weren't even through the door to the aircraft yet, and you had a FA standing right there at the door with a bottle of alcohol. I'm glad somebody finally takes their job seriously! Hey, you think they might start serving booze ON the jetway pretty soon? And if that weren't enough, I'm watching you walk down the aisle, and I noticed every seat came equipped with an incontinence diaper on it. What the heck. Were you flying an AARP charter flight? Wow, finally an airline recognizes that, well, if we can't line up near the bathrooms anymore to wait our turn, then they need to provide for the inevitable eventualities! BTW, thanks for the great view of the flaperon also! Anyway, be well my friend. Stay safe. Talk to you soon.
Queria Muito Uma Experiência Assim Fazer um Vôo Internacional Sobre o Atlântico ❤❤❤❤😢😢😢. As Condições não Permite, lindo Vídeo Parece que Estou Dentro Filamando em Seu Lugar 😂😂😂😂😂. like Bom Registro 💛🇧🇷💚
I'm glad you enjoy the videos my friend. A lot of work over the years has led to me being able to film these long flights in there entirely. There's a lot of factors people tend to forget. Memory space on the device, battery life, where the sun will be at so the cameras don't overheat, etc.
They have a pretty good mix still. This was a GE90 powered one though. Off the top of my head I know at least 52 of United's 777's still have P&W power. The original United Airlines ordered 777-222's. They then inherited all of their GE90 powered 777's from Continental and they are the 777-224's.
To be honest, I avoid flying at night whenever possible because of the lights in the cabin. US based airlines are better about turning them off in my experience. So I generally feel pretty good about taking overnight flights on US carriers. European, Asian, Pacific, and other areas of the world... They're not so good about it. I've flown Japan Airlines, ANA, Fiji Airways, Cathay Pacific, Lufthansa, and others overnight and they all never turned off the lights. Like, I honestly don't get it haha. Sure, I get leaving them on during meals, but after meals are done? And it's the middle of the night? Why do they all just leave the cabin lights on full blast haha. So, in general I try not to fly overnight.
I think you should do more night flights with delta’s A350. It’s my favorite aircraft and I would love to fly their aircraft one day (except with Emirates Airlines).
Night flights are extremely difficult to film. It’s why you don’t see many of them on the channel. They require so much luck that it’s hard to spend money on them knowing I might now even be able to film it. If the crew leaves the cabin lights on it’s game over. All you see then is your reflection.
It definitely can. I wouldn't say it necessarily did on this flight, but with only a 1/4th load of passengers, we were probably fairly light, even for a long flight. They most likely used a de-rated power setting for departure. I've been on some 777 flights where I've been pushed back like that though.
No, I believe that is Lake Livingston. We took a much more northerly route on this flight and Lake Pontchartrain would've been on the other side of the aircraft, if you could see it at all. We were probably too far west to even see it. We flew almost directly over Shreveport to give you and idea of our track.
@@sla31 I looked it up. It is Lake Livingston (never heard of it---I'm from Oklahoma City) and you would still be in Texas at this time coming up on Groveton and Lufkin.
Yes, it was. This was one of the rare occasions I've had a whole row to myself on a long international flight. There were like 70 people on the flight.
ماشا اللہ تعالیٰ سے اچھی video ہے آپ اسی طرح سے بڑے بڑے جہازوں میں سفر کیا کریں ۔ شکریہ ❤😊 میں پاکستان سے ہوں ویسے بھی مجھے انگلش نہیں آتی 😅 اس لئے میں نے اردو میں لکھا ہے اگر آپ کو بھی اردو آتی ہے تو لکھ دیا کریں ۔ ❤😊🎉
Imagine how much it would improve the image of the airline if they'd occasionally clean those flaps (I presume hydraulic fluid). Sorry to be nitpicky, I can't help it.
You know what's interesting? United is one of the only airlines I've actually seen cleaning the exterior of their planes. In Honolulu, a lot of their aircraft fly in during the afternoon and don't turn around to go back until that evening. They'll sit at the gates for 4 or 5 hours. And United actually contracts with a company to wash their planes. You'll see a whole crew on scissor lifts with brushes and soap, scrubbing down the whole plane. But yet, I still seem to see more United planes with residual oil left on the wings haha.
Believe it or not, these types of long flights with mostly black screens are what's requested more than anything else. People use them to help sleep. The white noise from the engines, plus the dark screen makes them ideal for that.
Once I was seated and looked out that window I'd be going uhhh scuse me miss can you call maintenance and tell them to come clean of that dirty wing!? LOL! (?) Seriously I can't believe United Airlines let one of their 777s get wing grime like that! Tsk! 😊 Love your videos man!

Never had the chance to fly from iah to ams in my life but would love to. This is automatic thumbs up..!
Always really nice videos and it helps me to fall asleep when I can’t sleep directly 😂😂
Awesome my friend! Listen, I'm one of the few people who won't get mad when someone says their videos put them to sleep 😂. I'm glad they can help you ease your mind and rest!
These videos are so relaxing. Great job!
The full flight I’ve been waiting for!! That’s my white noise for sleep
This is a great one for that, for sure! Thanks for watching my friend!
I also love white noise along with this channel. 😊
That was a cool take off with the shadow and I think thats the full moon in the background during takeoff! 👍👍
Interesting watching the sunshine through the clouds during departure.
Awesome!! I’m a big fan!!
Wonderful video clip of UA 777 take off out of Houston, bound for Schipol
Cool to see the shadow of the rudder pre-flight control check on the wing.
Can't say it enough... I LOVE your work!!
Glad you enjoy it my friend!
That plane has relaxin' & good views. 💜

Boy that pan from 3:50 to 4:05 really shows just how BIG it is inside that plane.
I got on a 777 for a 4 hour transcon one time and the size difference between that and the usual 737 or a321 that serves that route was insane
@@Harper210I also got a 777-300er on my 5 hour flight and comparing that to the usual A330 or A321 or 757 the size is insane

lol @5:45. Rampies and Texans are so funny.
Awesome!!
Those vibes from engine start were pretty intense! GE90’s, I’m
Assuming? Not sure how many PW 777’s United still has in their fleet.
They have a pretty good mix still. This was a GE90 powered one though. Off the top of my head I know at least 52 of United's 777's still have P&W power. The original United Airlines ordered 777-222's. They then inherited all of their GE90 powered 777's from Continental and they are the 777-224's.
I know that it is a dice roll as far as having the lights off in the cabin, but do try for more night especially sunset transition like this one. 🙏🙏

Im an Airbus kind of guy but Boeing sure makes some pretty wings.

First and nice video
Wow. That's what i call a right turn after take off. He flew a circle one time around himself.....😅
Yeah, I really thought they'd give us a left turn, but no... We got to do a 360 and look directly at the sun for a minute haha.
I think you should do more night flights with delta’s A350. It’s my favorite aircraft and I would love to fly their aircraft one day (except with Emirates Airlines).

Nice video, thanks.
Out of curiosity, does the 777 push you back in your seat when take-off power is applied?
I was wondering that, too. I've experienced it on the 747, and especially on the old DC-10s.
It definitely can. I wouldn't say it necessarily did on this flight, but with only a 1/4th load of passengers, we were probably fairly light, even for a long flight. They most likely used a de-rated power setting for departure. I've been on some 777 flights where I've been pushed back like that though.
Great fly! Does your credit card charge you a foreign transaction fee while outside US?
No, my cards are all travel perk based cards and none of them have foreign transaction fees.
Takeoff and immediate turn looked kinda steep
Is that Lake Ponchartrain there at 36:24?
No, I believe that is Lake Livingston. We took a much more northerly route on this flight and Lake Pontchartrain would've been on the other side of the aircraft, if you could see it at all. We were probably too far west to even see it. We flew almost directly over Shreveport to give you and idea of our track.
