Holy cow as a frequent flier, I wish I knew which plane I would be getting when I book the ticket. There is a difference between an MD-88 and a Boeing 717 and when I'm flying three times a month, that difference really does matter. Milwaukee to Chicago, I'll put up with whatever plane you give me, but Chicago to Atlanta, I would pay a bit more for the newer plane.
- JamilD 11y agoYou can see what aircraft is operating the flight you're booking on most airline's websites. Makes a huge difference in what flight I book. For example, I just booked ORD-SFO on UA in business, which is a completely different experience on the upper deck of a 747 (UA1213) than the usual 737 :)
- freehunter 11y agoHuh, I've always booked on my company's booking tool, which AFAIK does not list the plane. Maybe I should start comparing to other sites to see what plane the route will be running.
- fasteddie 11y agoMost search engines will do this. Kayak, for example shows it when you expand the listing.
