The amenity kit was better than the stuff the legacy big 3 give you and the plane was cleaner than the dirty planes those same big 3 operate. And on a 8.5 hour flight they served two very tasty HOT meals. I was booked 787-8 to JFK but with a miscconect reassigned to a later 737-MAX8 flight. New plane, very nice interior. No minature lavatories like AA 737-MAX, seatback screens, and even in regular economy the legroom was decent. Free hot meal on a 4.5 hour flight in economy. AA can't even serve you a hot meal in economy on 737s as they have no ovens.
