AA IT often gives us disorganized or confusing information.
In this instance, “Flagship” means three class First cabin
and service. The only aircraft with three class First are the Boeing 777-323ER “77W” and the Airbus A321-200 transcontinental / A321T “32B” models. (Sometimes the First cabin on these are not sold as Flagship, such as when the A321T is sold JFK-BOS or SFO-LAX.)
The links in my previous post lead to AA pages about FF transcontinentally and internationally.
To add further confusion, AA also brands Business class on these flights as “Flagship Business” (
link), offers Flagship Check-in, Flagship Lounges and Flagship First Dining with inconsistent requirements for access.
(At one time, aircraft were designated as “Flagship” - DC-3s were and had names like “Flagship Knoxville” and flew pennants from the cockpit window when parked on the ground - and the aircraft fleet was “the Flagship Fleet”.)
