I'm not too familiar with AA's TATL routes, but from my quick 5-minute research, it looks like LHR is the only European city AA flies into that offers first class.
Is this correct?
Or are they any other TATL routes that feature AA's F product? (new or old doesn't matter)
I need to get to Milan, and while JFK-LHR-MXP would work, if there are other options, it'll help me plan my trip. (and also JFK-LHR is kind of too short to actually enjoy first class IMHO)
Thank you!
I'm pretty sure LHR is the only route that regularly sees AA 777/F service. MIA-MAD currently has 777s with F equipped, however I believe this changes to the refurbished 777 without F somewhat soon. Outside of that I'm not sure if there are any other TATL 777 routes to anywhere other than LHR.

I'm not exactly sure what you're looking to get out of your F experience, but you'd be far better off on BA, AF, LX, or LH with an onward connection to MXP. All of those F products are far superior to AA's.

Also, EK flies JFK-MXP nonstop with one of the best F cabins out there. I'm not sure when you're planning to go, but that flight gets upgraded to an A380 in June. It's currently a 77W.
