Eric Decker, a famous YouTuber, also known as Airrack, set himself on a unique mission recently. He decided to fly on every domestic airline in the United States for a week. Additionally, he recorded the experience and a set of rules laid down for this challenge. The YouTuber’s ambitious airline ranking challenge has now provided vital insights into how US aviation truly works.
Eric decided that he would not leave the airport until this mission was complete. He would also buy good seats on each airline. The ranking for each flight is based on price, comfort, service, and other factors. However, the YouTuber met with the first obstruction at the beginning of this trip. His precisely planned schedule was thrown off track when the first three flights were delayed or cancelled. Eric continued with this mission and ultimately ranked the airlines. In the video, Eric said, “I’m ready to dedicate however many days of my life it takes to try every single airline in the country."
Southwest Airlines granted him a coveted first-row seat owing to their open seating model, but a lengthy delay dropped them to the C-tier classification. Spirit Airlines, reportedly known for its low-cost rates, impressed the YouTuber with a clean jet, and polite crew, and therefore received a B-tier rating. Frontier Airlines also earned compliments, with the YouTuber praising a specific flight attendant and giving her a gift card.
There were other companies ranked below in the scorecard. Horizon Air’s excessive cabin temperature and subsequent cancellation resulted in an F-tier rating. Silver Airways also received an F since their flight was cancelled.
Moving on, Delta Airlines provided a comfy seat, access to a lounge with numerous amenities, and complementary food, but their high price kept them out of the top tier. But Endeavour Air achieved an A-tier rating despite its high price.
After a week of flying across the country, Eric Decker was eager to return home. He reserved a seat on American Airlines, anticipating a wonderful experience. However, he eventually gave up the seat to visit his mother, leaving American Airlines with an E-tier rating.
