I see lots of complaints around PDB and have stiffed myself in the past, but here is some positive news:

RIC/MIA PDB of your choice +awesome flight attendant who introduced herself and addressed everyone by name and checked in regularly. She even gave everyone in F their specific connecting gates.^

MIA/GUA PDB of your choice. Flight attendants would halt boarding so drinks could be delivered

GUA / MIA PDB of your choice.

MIA/CLT PDB of your choice. FAs also halted boarding econ so drinks could be delivered.

CLT/RIC PDB of your choice. 2 rounds before we pushed back ... flight was choppy so Capt asked FAs to stay seated so they served another round of snacks and drinks before push back. FAs were funny and energetic for a 22:40 departure.

That's 5 segments with a 100% success rate on early morning flights, afternoon flights, late night flights, and all pretty full. Some FAs were better than others, but none were bad and all in all it was a great trip.
Totally forgot about when they use to come to each seat in first and give connecting info....when and why did this stop
