Why?
Because this flight is more than 2200 miles. Otherwise there would be no meal as others have stated. (LAX/SFO-MIA/JFK do get meals because they are premium routes)
And no, these items cannot be pre-ordered.
I flew PDX-CLT on Tuesday night in F, we didn't get the cheese plate/hummus. It was just the yogurt/granola pack during approach. That flight is 2282 miles.
I can't find anywhere on the AA website that says that red-eyes get the cheese/hummus plate.
