This is the only think that I haven't liked about AA coming over from Delta. On domestic DL night flights, the lights go out just after pushback and don't come on again until arrival at the gate. In between this time it's reading lights only which is plenty of light for any in cabin task I can think of. On the vast majority of my AA flights, the cabin lights are left on for takeoff and beverage/meal services and are finally turned off once the last of the service items are picked up. Perhaps I'm a minority, but I much prefer having the cabin lights off for the duration of the flight. Now the mood lighting is another story.
