Trip Report | LOT Polish Airlines (Economy) | Boeing 737 MAX 8 | Warsaw (WAW) - London (LHR)

Thank you for watching this video! This was my trip with LOT Polish Airlines from Warsaw to London Heathrow. The flight itself was great, the crew were nice and the plane was modern.

This aircraft was supposed to be delivered to Blue Air, however they went bankrupt before the airline could get it. The lessor leased the aircraft as-is to LOT. This means that this aircraft is technically a budget airline plane, flying for a legacy airline. It has 189 seats, and some elements of Blue Air (such as the diamonds in the front of the cabin). However, it's a good plane and to the regular customer they wouldn't realise this.

LOT also handed out complimentary snacks and drinks, which was quite a positive in comparison to other airlines in Europe.

On this aircraft there was no Wi-Fi. Typically LOT have a streaming service, however this aircraft was not installed with it, presumably due to the fact that LOT took the aircraft up quickly and did not have time to install it. Time will tell wether this aircraft will ever get it.

Brilliant video! I agree about the pressure LOT is facing. Planes from 2 bankrupt airlines and its own, wow. Chopins airport cant really be expanded although I'd aircraft maintenance and upkeeo would be a struggle, especially since their first E195-E2 took flight a few days ago. Hopefully they expand to other airports in Poland and western Europe, as Ireland is disconnected and the UK too except London, although thats probably not a very viable option, as Ryanair, Wizz and EasyJet are all fighting eachother in that area. So its interesting whether theyll retire some older E170s or E175s. However, theyre useful for low capacity routes like Lublin, Zielona Gora and Szczecin. Great video, hope to see more!

Nice trip report I flew LOT from London to Warsaw and I asked the crew if I could sit in the window seat and they said they'll swap a lady with me

Warsaw airport is really nice but the security line can be long sometimes
