For today's video, here is a full flight experience on board Delta Airlines' Boeing 717 from Newark to Atlanta! This flight was Delta Airlines Flight 2453 DAL2453/DL2453 with service to Hartsfield Jackson International Airport (KATL/ATL) from Newark Liberty International Airport (KEWR/EWR). The aircraft I flew was N915AT, a Boeing 717-231, which had it's first flight in March 2001, making the aircraft 13.6 years old! During the video, I was sitting in Seat 23E. FLIGHT EXPERIENCE : Information about Delta Airlines : Delta Airlines is one of the "big 3" carriers of the United States, and serves many destinations in the world internationally with a large variety of aircraft. Delta's fares are usually low cost and they offer good in-flight entertainment most of the time. The legroom is also good on most of their airplanes. Seats : Delta has the usual First Class and Economy Class. They offer a section called Economy Comfort which is located in the coach cabin, which has better legroom and more boarding time. Find out more about Economy Comfort on Delta's website : http://bit.ly/PUkkBv The seat configuration of Delta's Boeing 717-200's is 2 x 3. Delta's 717 seats are comfortable, soft and have nice legroom. The recline is also pretty good for a plane like this. Find the seat information here at Delta's site : http://bit.ly/1G48wTw Delta offers USB and power ports onboard the plane throughout the ENTIRE cabin for FREE! Food/Beverage : Delta uses the standard carts to haul food and drinks around the aisles of the airplane. They offer complimentary Coca Cola beverages and 3 choices of free snacks, which include mini pretzels, cinnamon cookies and peanuts. Delta pours the drink into the a plastic cup. See the dining options here : http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_US/traveling-with-us/in-flight-services/flying-economy-with-delta.html#dining Flight Attendants : The flight attendants on board this flight were excellent, very accommodating and always had a smile on their faces - I can tell that they enjoyed their jobs and loved to help others! Out of my several Delta flights, all but one group of flight attendants have been fantastic, this set of crew was probably the best. Turbulence : There was none during this flight, a very smooth ride. Delays : We were on schedule and arrived early on this flight! Good job to Delta for no delays :) In-Flight Entertainment : On this flight, there were no Personal TV's or any AVOD entertainment - the 717 fleet is not equipped with these because they are used for short haul routes. The entertainment included the magazines...and looking out the window ;) Just kidding...there is also On-Demand audio streaming in all classes of the 717. There is also gogo in-flight WiFi available for purchase, but on this flight, the network was down. Baggage Costs : I did not choose to check in any bags, I put my luggage in the overhead compartments. If I did check a bag, it would have to weigh under 50 lbs and not exceed over 62 inches in total dimensions (length + width + height). And of course, you are allowed one personal item and one carry-on item for free! Anyways, please check out this link for more info on Delta's baggage policies : http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_US/traveling-with-us/baggage.html Overall, Delta Airlines is the best out of the three major US carriers in my opinion. Usually, you can't go wrong with them unless there is a major problem. With the low prices and all the amenities you receive for free, Delta is always worth it! ----------------------------- Aircraft Information Airline : Delta Airlines DAL/DL Aircraft : Boeing 717-231 B712 Flight : DAL2453/DL2453 Airport : Newark Liberty International Airport KEWR/EWR Hartsfield Jackson International Airport KATL/ATL Runway : Runway 22L and 8L Origin : Newark Liberty International Airport KEWR/EWR Destination : Hartsfield Jackson International Airport KATL/ATL Registration : N915AT Flight Aware : https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N915AT/history/20140827/1815Z/KEWR/KATL Date of Filming : August 27, 2014 Camera(s) : Canon Powershot SX-40HS Video Editor : CyberLink PowerDirector Version 12 Seat : 23E Cruising Altitude : 34,000 feet Speed : 453kts Distance : 777 sm Route : KEWR EWR1 LANNA PTW BYRDD HAAGN PENSY EMI CSN MOL FLASK AVERY BEBAD ODF FLCON DIRTY2 KATL Flight Duration : 1 hour 38 minutes Departure Time : 2:30 PM EDT Arrival Time : 4:08PM EDT ------------------------------------------------------ Channel Website : http://www.nycplanespotting.weebly.com Subscribe : http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=NYCPlanespotting Google Plus : https://plus.google.com/b/110281131786886376580/ *NEW* Instagram : http://instagram.com/cathaya340_planespotting/ ------------------------------------------------------ © CathayA340 Planespotting 2014 This video may not be used without permission.
