This is my return leg of Las Vegas vacation.
UA124 depart from Las Vegas at 6am,so I had to leave hotel at 4 am.My biggest concern was whether I could catch Uber or Lyft at such a mid-night.
But I could catch Lyft driver in a minutes after I opened app.
I was surprised at the number of driver at 4am.How sleepless city LasVegas is!

Las vegas airport was crowded despite of 4am.I printed out boarding pass by check-in machine.

After through TSA security check,I got on train for main terminal.I arrived at airside in a few minutes.
Airside was surprising.There were a lot of slot machine everywhere in this airport.Here is Las Vegas…….
When I arrived at Gate,Boarding already started. I jumped into my ship.

This A320 was 21 years old.But I never felt it's age,it seemed well maintained.
United A320 was not equipped with IFE,but it has a wi-fi streaming system(It is called "United Private Screening").,which let me watch some movies and TV programs on my personal device.
But I didn't use because I would like to sleep.
Before push back,Captain started interesting welcome-on-board announcement in front of passengers.
I had never seen such a humorous captain in Asia.

A lot of MD80 and B757 were on the ground.Both are pretty rare in Asia.

My ship took off with sunrise.

After seat belt sign turned off,Small Waffle and drink were distributed.
Waffle was much better than a snack,which was distributed previous flight.

Terrain changed drastically after passing over Rocky Mountains,from a desert to beautiful californian field.
It's time to descent to SFO.
Landing to San Francisco was exciting, because CRJ200 approached simultaneously with us.

We landed on SFO at 7:15.After short taxiing,My ship spotted on the gate.
Then,I asked crew to show me a cockpit.

I found some cockpit instrument arrangement was older than Jetstar,despite of same A320.

Conclusion

This is a domestic flight of United A320,which was 21 years old.However,Cabin was clean and well-maintained despite of its Age.
Cabin crews were working efficiently.And Snack was better than previous flight.IFE didn't not equipped,but wi-fi streaming worked well.

At Las Vegas airport,I was confused by a number of slot machine.
If you want gambling until the last moment,It is a good place to spend times and money.But Don't miss your flight.
