Just a heads up that there is a United flight between Denver and Houston daily that flies on the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

Didn't realize this until after booking my flight...so I'm making sure you don't make the same mistake by not getting the chance to fly on it!

The mistake is that he didn't take that flight.

Ah ok.

Maybe I should have understood that from the start but it was a little confusing.

I flew on ANA's dreamliner from LAX to Tokyo. It's pretty sweet

Sorry for the confusion. Fixed it.

I believe it's the only domestic US flight currently using the 787. It doesn't cost more to fly on it, so why not experience the aircraft that will most likely become a staple of most major airline fleets in the 2000s.

What's so good about it? I just flew from Houston to Denver in a normal shitty frontier plane and it was fine since it's so quick.

What are they wanting to charge you to change flights?

Frontier sucks. Stop flying with them.

I flew on one last winter and it was sweet. As soon as I got to denver though I saw the news report about them having serious problems.

It was a really nice plane though.

United has a $200 change fee now. I'm not supporting that sketchy business practice. I will return to LA at some point. I won't make the same mistake twice.

It's more fuel efficient. It was definitely more spacious but that could have been because it was an international flight. They did have a problem of a few planes catching on fire earlier last year.

I think it was battery problems on the Dreamliner.

As for that plane, they have service from DEN to Tokyo, which is cool. I'd like to fly on that plane.
