    "Biscoff" is a Belgian biscuit and it recently made the headlines here in Belgium because Lotus (the producer) decided to remove the name used in Belgium ("Speculoos") from the packaging to replace it by Biscoff like elsewhere in the world. I think people will continue to call it speculoos anyway. :p

    As I think I mentioned in another video, I once flew the opposite of this route - same airline, same plane; we were originally headed directly to SEA from DEN but had to make an emergency medial stop in BIL. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to deplane during the hour it two it took to sort things out. But at least I was in F! ;-) Also wanted to add that unlike Delta, UA offers a full bar service in first class, even on short flights like this one.

    When it comes to food service (pre-pandemic at least-policies change a lot now), the US Airlines serve food in pretty much the same manner in first class. For Delta, all daytime flights longer than 900 miles would receive full meal service. For United, it was flight time based (I believe 2hr 20min+ would receive full service). However, as mentioned before, COVID has thrown all of this off.

    I wholeheartedly respect your opinion in grading flights and airlines but how does #UnitedAirlines, on this flight, get a 7/10 on inflight entertainment? If the most you get is free wifi for your cell phone then maybe they deserve a 2 but that's damned expensive for $112.00 increase. The end result is that they overcharge for a seat upgrade and nothing gave 1st class clients nothing more on a one hour flight.
