PHX Airport

General waiting area.

Apparently, AA doesn't have a first-class lounge in PHX. Not that I would have gotten an admission there, due to the lack of my status! So, I spent my time clicking more pics!

Okay, here's THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP:

If you're flying first-class on an AA MD-80, AVOID SEATS 3A AND 3B. They have almost the same leg-room as in coach, and believe me, you wouldn't want that on a 4 hour flight!

Service began with a pre-departure drink. Chose the orange-juice. It's better to be as hydrated as possible, when you are flying for almost 2 DAYS!

Soon after take-off, meal service began. First, hot-towels were distributed. There's an option on AA.com, where you can, if you are flying first-class, reserve your meals online! I ordered the omelette, served with sausages for breakfast. It was pretty good. I wanted to pair it with the champagne, but it didn't go well. I, particularly, didn't like the champagne very much. I don't know if it was just me!

The rest of the flight was pretty uneventful! I tried to get some rest, as it was a very long 2 days ahead of me!
