I will say that many people around me commented that this was unusual, but I would say it really helped the mood that AA (or pilot?) took this initiative. Also, it was much more appreciated than just opening up the drinks cart. Anyone have thoughts on whether this was corporately sanctioned or the action of a "rogue" crew.
