DFW-DEN is now a no meal flight, but as many FFs know, it hasn't always been that way. The flight was full...there are many things a good flight attendant can do to provide high quality service, rather than sitting on her/his a** for most of the flight. If the FA's are now doing less (in terms of job duties), than they deserve a pay cut. They also need to be supervised more closely...and yes, I do intend to write AA.

Since we don't know any more details about flight times, and your comment about "and of course no food" suggests that you were not in a meal time window for F. If there was no food, and one of the FAs actually brought something from home....then KUDOs for that FA for PLANNING AHEAD for themselves, eating on the flight, instead of possibly making another flight delayed while they stopped to get food on the ground between the quick turn-arounds. We don't even know the flight loads on this particular flight, so maybe there weren't that many people in back? Or they were sleeping?
I was just on a flight last month where both directions we only had 50 people per flight.
If the service on this particular flight was Beverage only, what else are the FAs to do?
Sure, re-offer beverages, but other than that...if AA hasn't catered anything else...then please explain what more is the FA to do on the flight?
I hope you wrote into AA.com/customerrelations and explained your frustration with the service you received on all your flights. Only then will AA know that the service is lacking (if it was indeed lacking)
Please understand that I too am frustrated at the lack of Service some FAs *cough*provide*cough*. However, nothing will be done if you don't write into CustomerRelations and let them know.
