Another great trip report video to RIC! Love all the features the B757 has…to be as old as it is. Still has a lot of life in her! Hope these 757s continue between RIC-ATL!

I’m sure they will! Since they operate so many flights a day on this route, I’m sure they will be around for a while. Both of these 757’s were actually fairly newer than the average one! The one in their video is 24 years old while the one I flew to Atlanta on was only 19 years old! I’ve seen them be as old as 30 years old! Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed!

I flew a 757-300 from PHX to DTW in Jan 2024. While I love the 757 family, Delta has not spent the money to install live TV or offer free internet on the aircraft I flew although it appears that LiveTV was available on your flight. I fear the 757 entire family is destined to be sold and converted to freighters in the very near future.

Yeah, it’s an older plane, but still one of favorites! Also, maybe every plane is different? Because there wasn’t WiFi on this flight, but WiFi on the other. I think 757 will remain as a passenger plane for a while because Delta and United’s fleets are filled with them. Just like how they’re still keeping the 747 alive in some countries

Very cool video. How come they fly this big plane to Richmond? Isn’t it a small city? Thanks .

Not a small city, but I guess it’s all relative. Small compared to LA, NYC, Chicago, but I’d consider it a medium sized city…and it’s growing! More people in the region equals more people using the airport. Not only do these B757s fly between ATL and RIC everyday, but it happens about 6 times a day!

This is a busy route. Because Richmond is smaller than cities like Atlanta and Chicago, they offer multiple flights on these a day. And these routes are very busy. That’s why they need a bigger plane

@@airviation8446 I’ve never been on a 757! I’ve only flown delta once and it’s on one of my videos! The only reason why I flew it was because I was flying with my friend and his family and they flew delta so my parents just booked my flight with delta so I could be with them
