Fabulous service by the FA in first. They greeted every single passenger coming on. Noticed I boarded late and made sure to get me a PDB of choice. After takeoff, came around and took drink orders which came with mixed nuts. Then took lunch orders. Choice of golden roasted chicken or vegetable pasta. I heard FA assure a passenger that the chicken would not be dry. Rolled my eyes. Brought out trays with shrimp app, sun-dried tomato salad, and choice of bread. Cleared plates. Mains were served. Lo and behold, chicken was not dry. Trays cleared. Dessert is choice of molten chocolate cake, fruit & cheese plate, or ice cream sundae. Opted for the sundae with the works. Food was better than expected (low bar). Happy to post pix when I hit 5 posts.
Throughout the service, FA took the time to talk to each passenger and explain the menu. Addressed everyone by name. Clearly showed pride in the job. Never really sat down--was constantly bringing around the snack basket or proactively refilling drinks. Had to pinch myself and make sure I was still flying AA.
Wish more flights were like this!
