Crew was best I've had in years. They seem proud to be working in Mint. Food was excellent. Tapas style. Seat (single suite) was fantastic though door didn't close? They somehow can use glassware during covid.
A few empty seats. I don't think they offer upgrades and there were a few pilots in Y. AAA experience. A total no brainer for $800 and a ~5 hour flight.
I also flew JFK-PBI last month and it was better than Y on AA, but wouldn't do it again. 45 minute wait for security (no tsa pre-check). JFK terminal was a zoo.
For NYC based travelers Mint makes sticking with AA much much easier.
Yes, welcome to Mint.
Super interesting that it was cheaper booking through AA though. I’ll have to give that a look.
