FLT 136 and 137 LAX-LHR-LAX

[IsleSeat]

anyone can confirm if the 777 equipment used are newly configured business class seats?

The multi-page NGBC seat thread notes that ALL 777s and 767-300ERs have been converted to the new lay-angled seats.

Having flown those flights twice in the last month, I can confirm that the seats are newly configured business class seats.

In the not too distant future, I'm hoping to experience actually sitting in them, thanks to my newly acquired EXP status.

Don't forget about the Gold/Plat Challenges. That roundtrip alone is good enough to get you Gold (or Plat depending on the booking code).

Check the FAQ at the top, FewMiles has a great summary of how to jumpstart your AAdvantage status.

I would HIGHLY recommend you sign up for a Platinum challenge now, with a Jan 1 start date.
YOu need 10000 points in 3 months
Based on the information, you will have this during the trip described.
You will get PLT status until the end of February 2010
Platinum gives you 100 percent bonus on miles earned, free upgrades (2000 miles per 10K flown), priority seating (if you fly in economy), international lounge access on, even if flying economy, etc..
