At this rate, I predict the last round of 9/11 cutbacks will be the removal of seats on July 21, 2002 ("they were constantly complaining about them anyway!" is the official AA line).

The beAAncounters will convene on July 22, 2002 to observe passenger reaction...having already removed, in the name of "increased security awareness," caviar, Tokaji, olives, toilet paper, ice, reading lights, carpet, window shades, seatback pockets, the oil from the vinegar and oil dressing, the buttons on FA uniforms, all plastic wear, and ice cream (you can still get the toppings and nuts, don't even mention cool whip), the beAAncounters will notify management on August 12, 2002, that based on customer feedback, AA can control costs and restore customer satisfaction by reinstalling toilet paper (FC only) and ice (odd numbered flights, only). Tokaji will be restored, but only offered to those sitting in bulkhead window seats on Europe flights originating after 8:30 p.m. from BOS.
