Glad to hear the Edinburgh 757 has had a makeover because I’ll be on it in September. Unfortunately with kids so the nice exit rows at the front are out. Of the question.
Interestingly in the revised 77W config there are twin MCE seats in the middle of the plane that are not exits so I’m giving those a spin on the way back (from London).
The other huge boon of AA for me has been Pre-Check, Flagship Lounge, T3 lounges (CX). AA Y with status is not half bad
