Good to hear that, and may I venture a suggestion - take a few minutes to write about the expoerience to AA. There is 'contact AA' button under the 'customer relations' tab, and I'm sure the crew will be happy to hear about your sentiments. This will also encourage future captains in similar irregular conditions to look after their passengers just as well.
