BA is shockingly behind in terms of onboard hospitality including the quality of food (absolutely ghastly) and the facilities or lack of them. Their business class is worse than other airlines' premium economy class. I never fly with them even if it's free.

Awesome trip report. At first I was really impressed that UA served a mid-flight snack for all passengers although the flight was 11 hours, which was not very long. But later, I found out why... I don't like they served sandwich as a second meal for a flight that's 11 hours long...

Nice video mate! If I were to have this same flight using SWA then AA and I have baggage to check in, I'd have to claim my bags in LAX and recheck them at the AA baggage counter? Sad about the second meal prior to arrival into LHR a hot bagel and yogurt would have been a way better meal than what was served. So sad AA.

The 6-passenger compartments were pretty much standard through the 70's, so it was always a fun family trip. My mother and sister are originally from Braunschweig, but moved to the States in the late 50's. We spent many years since then traveling back to see family. We happened to make a final trip to Germany with mom in 2017. I spent hours trying to book compartment seating, and it paid off, as we made the rail trip from München to Braunschweig in a 1st class 6-person compartment. At the time I knew that it was probably the last time I would ride with mom, and I was right. We lost mom several years ago, but thanks to your video, I can keep some of those memories alive! One of my DB rail traditions is to always order an "Apfelschorle" (apple spritzer beverage) while on board. Once or twice a year, when I'm feeling nostalgic, I'll make myself the same drink at home and try to imagine I'm back on the train. Many thanks again.

Of course and I am very glad you enjoyed the video. My heartfelt condolences for your loss but I’m glad you hold those happy memories so close. The 6 passenger compartment is slowing fading as one can only see it on the ICE 1 models and a few ICE 3s but both are slowly getting refurbished. For the longest time DB ran the ICE between Frankfurt and Berlin via Braunschweig but I believe that route is now operated by the ICE 4. That’s cool that’s your family is from Braunschweig because that is the city where my father studied. My family is from the next city over Wolfenbüttel which is where I was living during the time this video was filmed. Overall I’m glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for your nice comment.

Were you flying on the 757-200 series version 1 or 2 layout? I am flying from PDX to KEF in August and want to pick a good seat in economy, so knowing which version flies between these two cities would be very helpful. It looks like layout 1 from your apparent seat just behind the wing based on your window seat view.

I’m glad you enjoyed the video! To answer your question; yes. In these seats you have to either awkwardly step over your seat mate if they are sleeping or ask them to let you out if they are awake. It isn’t the most optimal set up but the seats are significantly more comfortable than economy so that makes it worth the upgrade. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for this video. Although these cabins are getting a bit tired, I really like the three-class setup. Also, with only 102 seats these flights board quickly. The new XLRs will only have 20 lie flat seats instead of 30 so unfortunately I think getting one will become more difficult and expensive. I believe that although there were origninally 16 A321T in the fleet one of them was scrapped after an incident that damaged a wing.

I have flown Icelandic numerous times and love the 757. Boeing is stupid for not continuing production of them. One thing that I miss about Icelandic was their meal services on all Economy flights. Flew to Stockholm in 2001 from Minneapolis and had wonderful meal service. That is gone on the base Econ tickets. I have also flown on numerous other airlines and Icelandair's stewardesses are gorgeous

I was transferring from Lufthansa but these two flights were on two different reservations because Lufthansa is Star Alliance and Delta is Skyteam. The only reason I was able to transfer so fast is because I was only traveling with hand baggage and didn’t check anything in. In terms of service I would give that a 7/10 and seat comfort a 9/10 for an economy seat

I am hoping for a better long-haul experience than I on my previous two long-hauls with American. Both were on 767s in 2005 and 2012. One was ORD-OGG and the other was JFK-BCN. On ORD-OGG they ran out of food you could only purchase before they even got to my row, and neither flight had IFE’s. I was on a 777-300ER for Air Canada in 2018 for YVR-YYZ and it was great. Found out yesterday we were changed from a 777-200ER to a 777-300ER like this for our JFK-FCO flight in June 2024. So maybe it will be good.

I’m amazed! Was this shot on another planet? Several questions come to mind: 1). You went through the whole terminal at SFO and there were maybe a total of 7 people in the place. They also looked rather normal. Most of the time the terminals at SFO are packed with travelers and it looks more like the Mos Isley space port from Star Wars IV ( “You’ll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy “). How was this even remotely possible? 2). The Delta cookies on an AA flight strongly suggest that you flew through an alternate dimension. 3). I’m not sure, but I believe Mr. V scrolled right past a Top Gun movie on the infotainment screen without stopping to watch. Also not possible. If only my trips went this well, I’d gladly travel more often.
