Its hard to get footage of a plane that's not in service. The main content of the video is the narration of the info where the videos are just meant to be B roll

I mean yeah sure I could have flown to ATL and gotten a video but I live and work in MI and had to work that night. Also one landing video would not have been enough B roll for the whole video. So kind of not worth the effort

Showing a video of an A220 landing while narrating that "the -300 landed at ATL" without noting it, is deceptive (I suspect that's not a random coincidence either, it's likely intentionally deceptive). Showing a video of the wrong cabin while you describe the -300 cabin is also deceptive. Lots of information in the video, but it's hard to know which of that information is true and which isn't.

1.5 hours? They must have taken the scenic route. Especially foolish to waste so much fuel when Delta is bleeding billions.
