TRIP REPORT | 5 Hours on a 737 MAX | Los Angeles to Boston | UNITED Boeing 737 MAX

- United Trip Report flying from Los Angeles to Boston onboard one of the United Boeing 737 MAX 9 on a lovely summer morning in the United States.
A comfortable cross-country flight from Los Angeles to Boston onboard the United Boeing 737 MAX 9. Although the flight was fully booked with no empty seats, the legroom that United provides in the economy makes this 5h+ flight reasonably comfortable. This was my first time onboard the United Boeing 737 MAX and I'm already looking forward to repeating it!
About the flight itself, we departed westbound from Los Angeles, made a 180° turn over the Pacific Ocean, and set course towards Boston. We flew south of Las Vegas, over the Grand Canyon, the Rocky Mountains, and Colorado Springs. From there we set course towards Chicago. The views of the city and Michigan lake were truly amazing. From there we flew in an almost direct course towards Boston, where we landed some minutes ahead of the scheduled arrival time, after a breathtaking approach over the Atlantic.
Regarding the onboard service, United only provides drinks and very light snacks in economy class. However, they offer some warm meals for 8-10$. In my case, I went for the Asiago Bagel Sandwich, which turned out to be really tasty. Together with the complimentary drink and a waffle, they were enough for this 5h flight. Around 1 hour before departure the crew passed again offering another drink, this time without any snack.
Now it's your turn! Have you ever flown with United Airlines? Which route? How was the experience? Have you ever flown on a Boeing 737 MAX? Have you ever been in Boston? Maybe in Los Angeles? Have you ever flown from coast to coast in the US?
Lots of things to talk about! Read you all in the comments!

@@jimenapaton413 hey
Thanks ... Because of you, I have overcome my fear of flying and I flew for the first time on Vacation with my Fiancé, last year in May. I have watched your Videos over and over again and it helped me understand that flying is not more dangerous than taking the train ...
Thanks a lot! This type of comments are always really nice to read!
Wish you lots of safe anf beautiful flights! :)
Sounds great. Congratulations. Keep in mind that flying is one of the absolute safest ways to travel, if not the safest.
While United makes a passenger feel like self moving cattle, the views from the plane were amazing.
Glad that you've enjoyed the Trip Report :)
Me waiting to watch another great video😊
Starting in less than 1 hour! :D
what a beautiful report, loving that !!
Thanks so much! Glad that you've enjoyed it! :)
Compared to other aircrafts, The Boeing 737 MAX 9 is a real quiet aircraft. I always enjoy flying in them.
I agree. I found it a really comfortable plane 👍
I flew United Premium Plus a few months ago, EWR-MXP-EWR, 777-300. I loved it! The premium upgrade wasn’t terribly expensive, and the service and comfort were so much better than Economy. Flying United Premium again in April to Brussels and Naples.
Premium Economy is always a great experience... the problem is that those seats are usually over the wings and the views out of the window are covered buy them... so for making videos are not the best seats...
I give you two thumbs up on the review. It was really fun to watch. Overall, the MAX looks like a great airplane to fly on! 👍👍
Hope you will make much more Flight reviews from the USA.🇺🇸👍
Thanks!
The problem is that the videos flying within the US don't attract as many views as other... it's something I don't understand...
Yes! can you do please Trip Report - 9 Hours - Austin Airport.
I flew on a united 777 from Honolulu to Chicago a few months ago. It was a good experience and the food was good. Nice video!
I will be flying soon to Honolulu! Not from Chicago, but it will be from the US :)
@@OnBoardHD Cool!
I’m taking this UA going home from
Boston to LA , thank you for posting ❤
I had to go through my travel photos to find out the last time I flew on UA, and it was in 2009. UA was still the only US big 3 carrier that was flying into Dubai at the time. Business class back then on their 777s was 2-3-2 of wider-width seats, more foot room, & better catering. You were watching Armageddon, and at 10:05, the guy in the row in front of you was watching a Bill Burr comedy special.
I wish the 3 big ones in the US would offer a proper meal service in economy on this 5-6h flights from coast to coast...
We'll be uploading some more US flights on the next weeks, including Hawaii :))
Tastes could not be discussed, however for me the most beautiful plane is Boeing 777 in all its moficiations.
The B777 looks very nice :)
I will be flying on it from Hawaii soon! :)
@@OnBoardHD have a nice flight, looking forward to watch it
Thanks for this video, I really enjoyed how you showed the great scenery over the Rockies & Grand Canyon etc. I suppose with a flight of 5 hours it's disappointing to have just one small snack, but you can always bring a little something in your personal item. I recently flew United from Australia to UK via the USA & was very happy with the whole trip - in economy. The main thing to me is to get there safely, I don't expect much comfort / luxury for the great economy price. The cabin crew were helpful & professional. I guess we are all different - after many years travelling I prefer to fly economy (with a solid airline) & spend a few hundred dollars on a layover or on arrival at a mid price hotel where I can enjoy a drink, hot shower & a good sleep in a real bed. Please continue to do these lovely videos.
Appreciate you MAX 9
Muy bonito te ha quedado el vídeo , lo he disfrutado mucho por las preciosas vistas que has tomado por donde pasabas . Me ha sorprendido la aproximación a Boston ha sido increíble . Un cordial saludo y buen finde.
Muchas gracias, Rafa!! :)
La verdad es que los paisajes que se ven por el oeste de los EEUU son impresionantes. Toda la zona de los desiertos y cañones es realmente impresionante!
Amazing video! That scenery is simply breathtaking, and the approach to Boston so cool 😄
Thanks!!! Glad that you enjoyed this one!!
It's was nice to fly to Boston for the first time :D
@@OnBoardHD I can imagine! Always fun on approach to airports close to the city centre 😁
Thanks for your trip report. I moved from Boston to LA 40 years ago. I've taken United's over night LAX to BOS flight many times.
A bonus for me was when you showed Lowell, MA on the approach to BOS, you showed my childhood home in Chelmsford, MA on the lower edge of the screen. Thank you for that bit of nostalgia!
Welcome back Sir .. MashaAllah absolutely another spectacular beautiful fabulous uploading , lovely content vloggs trip report and you nailed it again .. appreciate most of your videos adventures .. have a wonderful blessing weekend, take care stay safe .. TQSM from Mtl Cdn ..
Thanks a lot! :)
Soon we'll fly ultra-long haul on the QATAR A350! 16h from Doha to San Francisco!! :DD
That sure was a good flight. It was really good that you got to see the Grand Canyon & the Rocky Mountains. I actually live in the Rocky’s, in Montana. 😃✈️
Thanks Nick! Glad that you've enjoyed this Trip Report!
I love making these routes from coast to coast in the US. The landscapes are always breathtaking! It's sad that not so many people are interested in these trips... they always get clearly less views than the average videos.
But for sure I will keep doing them :)
¡¡ 757 forever !!
The United fleet 8 airplanes US destinations & Worldwide destinations that's amazing.
I always enjoy flying with United... but the onboard experience (catering part) should be much better on a 5h flight...
As always thank you for the tour. 😊
fantastic views, thanks a lot ! 🙂
Thanks a lot! The US offers really amazing landscapes!
That take off wasn't on rw 07R.... I think was rw 25 R.... 😁
Great video!!!!! 👌👌👏👏
Yeah, at the begining of the taxi I said "starting taxi to rwy 25R" but then I put "takeoff from rwy 07"... editing too fast I guess :)
My god those engines are quiet!
They are really really quiet!
wow great scenery en route
Thanks a lot, Steven! :)
Well,that was nice!
Looks like the Max is doing better now!
It's a really comfortable plane. It's super silent, even behind the engines as on this trip, which makes it perfect for a 4-5h flight.
Nice trip report mate and choice views across the country from California to Massachusetts!
Thanks a lot!
The US offers amazing ladnscapes :)
JetBlue mint from LAX to BOS would have been the best way to make that trip. United does ok, but their catering and hospitality is usually not up to par.
haha Of course... but the prices are also much different! :D
Still better than AA
That was quite a long take off roll!
Well, 5h flight requires a lot of fuel on the tanks plus the plane full of passengers and bags :)
If you take off toward the ocean you probably took off from runway 24R, not 7R
It was the 25R, correct.
For South America, try Miami-Lima on an American A321 NEO! My grandpa flies that route all of the time, and I’m curious to see how it is. Thanks!
Could be an interestig route :)
My grandpa says good stuff about it, I’d love to see it!
You should come to Liverpool
what's the reason? :)
Are u going to post any other videos in Colorado??
This one goes through Colorado ;)
Can you do a flight to Washington Dulles (KIAD)?
I don't have it on the map for now... but for sure we'll do it at some point. Probably during summer or so, :)
cheers new vidd!!!
Glad that you've enjoyed it :))
OnBoard... desde Madrid siempre os vro ojalá que tu cnal siga creciendo CRACK¡
Muchas gracias, Samuel! :)
Great video but that takeoff was from runway 25R not 07R!
I know, when we start taxi I wrote the correct rwy... then the incorrect one... =/
Nice flight
Damnnn the landing was hard and the plane bounced 😭
It's called positive landing :)
Great content!
"armageddon" is the movie !
Go from Boston to New York and then to Florida by Amtrak
Well, that could be a nice experience.
I will consider it for the future :)
Pronto volverás a España?
Tengo bastantes videos grabados y no editados desde/hacia España, pero para las proximas semanas aun no tengo nada planeado.
No obstante, sí que volaremos más por Europa.
@@OnBoardHD Gracias por la información !
I'll be flying today from London Stansted to Katowice
It will be an amazing flight for sure! enjoy!
Why does the take off from RWY 7R face the Pacific Ocean in the west?
As always, I truly enjoyed your report, but this just confirmed what I already believe...flying a domestic US flight is just an AVERAGE experience at best. No matter how the airlines try to spin it, service onboard US carriers is just mediocre. There was nothing about that flight that made me want to fly UA. They don't even offer a decent buy on board product. I guess the best thing I can say is that you arrived to Boston safely. It really is sad. Again though, I did enjoy your report although I'm sorry that you had to experience such average service.
Thanks so much!
It's sad that the big 3 kept the same low service quality after the pandemic... but the prices are still the same.
It's a race to the bottom for in-flight service among the major US carriers. There is no such thing as service here. Back in 1976 when my mom and I flew from Sacramento to Jacksonville, FL via Chicago, we got breakfast from Sacramento and lunch from Chicago. Two different airlines, but very friendly on both.
Yea unfortunately here in the states you don't see service on domestic flights anymore. Europe has changed since the pandemic hit and they are starting to have people pay for service. Back in the day 1 hour flights in Europe would include a drink, snack, a small sandwich, and then another drink service such as coffee or tea. Everyone trying to compete with the low-cost carriers by still charging full prices
@@andidede3653 truly sad. I flew UA business class last year FLL-DEN. The service was what economy class had years ago minus the free alcohol.
Well, looks like in Europe we're following the same path... at the moment only AirFrance-KLM offer some kind of food and drinks included on the ticket in short/medium haul routes...
At least, some other airlines that don't give any kind of catering included on the ticket, are starting to offer some kind of good quality pre-ordered meals. I guess that's the future...
Saludos desde Bolivia 🇧🇴 y desde cochabamaba en el siguiente reporte de vuelo podrás hacer desde chile 🇨🇱 a Bolivia 🇧🇴 en latam airlines boeing 787 900
Veremos cuando será posible... :)
I don't know if domestic flight products are worth it
My experience with UA was that either everything went great or everything went horribly wrong and finally I said enough is enough and I don't fly them unless it is absolutely necessary. AA and DL aren't much better!
Delta is infinitely better
Last year I’ve flown on a United Boeing 737-800 from Tampa to San Francisco. About 5 hours of flying time. So I’m really curious about the differences!
The MAX is a real improve compared with the 737NG. :)
The landscape is just stunning! I can’t believe they make you pay for a meal on a transcontinental flight. I guess that is what you can expect from a US based airline. I hate to say that, but, in this country, money seems to be all that matters. On a more positive note, this is a great review, and, like I said, in another comment, I would love to take a flight on the MAX.
By the way, I don’t want to knock this country because it is beautiful and I have been through 18 states myself. I was born in Sweden.
Very nice video!
Thanks!
Causita debes volar a mi Perú, lima es la mejor ciudad capital de Sudamérica. Te vas impresiónar de todos los edificios, somos la Dubái de américa..saludos pe
Espero poder hacer un buen tour por latino america este año :)
737?? No.. not even to taxi around and I love United. No 737s for me, ever... bad ju ju...you took off on 24 not 7, via Del Rey over the ocean🙃
I don't know why I put starting taxi to rwy 25R and then takeoff from 07... editing faster than I should I guess :)
@@OnBoardHD my bad... 25, north side of LAX ( my home town ), touche ‘... I have never landed or departed eastbound via 7 🙃... love your channel✊🏾
Cool!
Glad you liked it! :D
No seatback IFE??😮
El avión más bonito el 757? El 777, no? Aunque en general, me gustan más los Airbus!
as ever, great video. I think the airline has the wrong strategy regarding food and drink. however, it all depends on how many other airlines fly the same route!
Thanks so much!
I agree... at least they could offer nice pre-ordered meals...
1 drink and a snack is more than you get on a uk equivalent airline for similar flight times.
The snack was paid, not included on the ticket.
Took off on 25 R ,in reverse operation it would be 7L
Yes, there is a mistake there.
Too fast editing I guess...
Boston terminal looks nicer than
Los Angelos terminal
It does, it definitely does.
LAX terminals are not very nice... =/
Great report as always. At beginning we saw a B737 you said destination Lihue. Probably wrong destination as that’s 4500 miles away. Keep up the good work. Keith
Thanks.
No, it's correct. Lihue is 4.220km (2.620 mi) from Los Angeles.
Yep, sorry. I had my silly head on thinking it was flying from Boston to Lihue!!!
I believe this was one of the first 737MAX ever delivered. Am I right?
I really don't know...
Thank god the windows are not dirty like Egypt air
They were quite dirty, but not scratched, yep.
The rest of the aircraft is worse 😂
Is the Boeing 737 Max more secure ?
Driving the US across on a car is my dream
It must be really amazing. I want to do that trip as well!!
Armaggedon, the name of the movie.
Correct :)
Bellissimo
Gracie :)
La película es Armageddon...la escena donde le dan la vuelta a la luna acelerando no sé si tiene fundamento científico pero es increíble.
Pregunta: siempre que se está en tierra y estamos apunto de despegar se despliegan los flaps y slats...ya en vuelo se retraen y cuando se aterriza se vuelven a desplegar y se vuelven a retraer después en tierra.....¿por qué estando en tierra simplemente no se dejan en posición desplegada? sé que debe ser un procedimiento...pero en sentido estricto, ¿no daría lo mismo?
Saludos
La película es correcta, pero la escena no es esa jeje
Los flaps y slats se usan para permitir al avión volar más lento. Usarlos cuando no hacen falta solo auementa el consumo. En tierra se cierran para evitar impactos de los vehiculos de tierra contra ellos.
If it’s a Boeing, I ain’t going 😂😂😂. But as always, thanks for sharing your experience
haha Glad that you liked it :))
Great video. BTW you departed runway 25R out of LAX. Not 7R
Yeah, I know.
When we started taxi I've put "starting taxi to rwy 25R" and then I put "takeoff from rwy 07R"... Editing too fast I guess :D
Another Stellar Trip Report my friend and loved every minute. Quick question - how do you find out the names of the mountains etc that you fly over for your reports?
Thanks! Glad that you enjoy them!
I can't tell how I make my videos... ;)
Wow $8 for a burger… Scandalous! Surprised there’s not more complimentary catering available on a 5 hr flight.
Even if you would have to pay for it... at least give more options...
Hi Sir!! Can y tell me which addon are y using for the traffic boats??
When are you gonna fly to Lithuania
For now I dont have anything booked... lets see! :)
Movie was Armageddon
Correct :)
Did the plane take a lot of runway for the takeoff or it was just my feeling?
Well, take into account that it wa carrying fuel for a 5h+ flight, full of passengers and full of bags. It's normal that the takeoff run is longer than for other flights :)
Pretty poor cabin service for a 5+ hour flight. 😕
Yeah, I think a full warm meal should be offered...
0:20, how do you make those?
podrias hacer un video desde malaga?
Por ahora no tengo ningun vuelo a Malaga planeado, veremos en verano... es posible que haga algun vuelo con Jet2 :)
La película: ARMAGGEDON
Correcto :)
Do most domestic airlines have seat reservations when buying tickets?
I would say all except Southwest :)
You are completely wrong on the take off runway you took off from runway 25R that goes over the Pacific
Delta is doing better
I will be flying with Delta soon on a similar ditance inside the US! Let's see how they perform! :)
@@OnBoardHD Sure, let's see and campare, good luck
UA still better than AA
@@Blank00 it for sure
@@Blank00 American is a way better than UA any day. AA has nice cabin crew and great food at least
Any Gatwick airport trip report coming soon
For now only Heathrow, but with the A380! :D
@@OnBoardHD ooo can’t wait for this trip report
Me pregunto como leches sabes donde estas en todo momento para los videos. Quiero decir, es obvio que sepas que estas en las rocosas o en Las Vegas pero como leches sabes esos pueblitos que son? Prueba y error en maps? Te lo sabes de antes? Un abrazo!
Si te contase los secretos de como hago los vídeos dejarían de ser "únicos" ;P
Is Wi-Fi available on this aircraft?
Yes.
Can you do a jet 2 agen plz
As soon as they will but in service to Spain the B757 again I will do it :)
@@OnBoardHD thank you
I don't know if many agree, but I think United's terminal 7 at LAX is one of the saddest terminals. Barely any food choices and not enough seats.
It looks new... but sad, yep, that's a good description.
Una pregunta , por qué los vuelos que van de Los Angeles hacía la costa esté siepmpre viran hacia la izquierda cuando despegan del aeropuerto LAX ? Nunca viran a la derecha
Enjoyed your video (as I do all you have made and I have watched). Keep up the good work. Am surprised that a big airline like United would charge for food on a 5 hour flight across the US. Am not aware of any other airlines that have the same practice.
Thanks a lot, Rob!
The onboard service should be much better for a 5h flight... The point is that on the opposite direction the flight is almost 6h and the service is the same,...
@@OnBoardHD Just this information makes me re-think any future travels with United. Being in Canada, my spouse and I always drive to Buffalo and fly with Southwest Airlines out of Buffalo/Niagara Int'l Airport to any and all destinations in the US. We find Buffalo Airport extremely efficient and Southwest a decent carrier for our purposes.
Muito legal 👏
Muchas gracias :))
The movie that you were watching on the plane looks like Armageddon.
These jets are most expensive 2023 editions a job in only preparing new. Economy, Business, First Class, schedule and trying to pay attention to real safe jets.
I wonder if you will go on long haul ITA airways
Also I liked! 😉
Probably yes :)
Ita runs the a350 and soon the a330 900
Oh sorry they also have the a330-200 but got rid of the 777-200ER replacement was the A350
I have flown this terrible airline a few times mostly terrible. My flight got canceled and I didn’t get any voucher or refund even though I booked a Polaris refundable ticket. All the times I flew them the staff were to worst and the rudest. The planes were usually very dirty and the food was cold and terrible. Also to mention that guy they beat up and dragged off for no reason and the pets united has killed
