I haven't provided any of my own data points from this year, so here it goes:
1/21/23 AA1776 PHL-BOS: Yes, open bar

1/21/23 AA779 BOS-LAX in Flagship Biz: Yes. Tray of Rose or OJ

3/8/23 AA10 LAX-JFK in Flagship Biz: Yes. Tray of OJ, Sparkling Wine, or Water

3/9/23 AA1831 JFK-MIA: No, and for no good reason. Perfunctory service in air

3/15/23 AA1863 CLT-DFW: Yes, open bar. Great service from a group of motivated FAs

3/15/23 AA941 DFW-ABQ: No, despite an on-time departure. Fine service in the air

3/18/23 AA2562 ABQ-PHX: Yes, open bar. Great service, even after a 2 hour delay that the crew had to wait out.

3/19/23 AA634 PHX-ONT: Yes, open bar

4/17/23 AA1763 LAX-LAS: Yes, open bar

5/11/23 AA1861 PHX-PDX: Yes. Sparkling wine or water. Very average service.

5/15/23 AA4900 PDX-LAX: No. Lazy service from a senior FA once in air.

5/15/23 AA1582 LAX-DFW: No, even after the flight was held 20 minutes for connecting passengers.

5/20/23 AA3370 BTR-DFW: Yes, open bar. Always great crews on these flights between Baton Rouge and DFW.

6/29/23 AA1920 PHL-ORD: No, and for no reason either.

6/29/23 AA46 ORD-LHR: Yes. Tray of water, sparkling wine, OJ

7/17/23 AA1185 BOS-PHL: Yes, open bar

8/7/23 AA5374 BTR-DFW: Yes, open bar

8/7/23 AA1995 DFW-PHL: No, despite being delayed 40 minutes due to flow control in the Northeast

8/17/23 AA938 PHL-PBI: No, but perfectly reasonable with the late inbound aircraft. Once in the air, first class FA provided a phenomenal service.

8/26/23 AA2208 PBI-CLT: Yes, but water only.

8/26/23 AA1819 CLT-ONT: No. Awful service in the air. Smug, condescending FA.

12/15/23 AA5131 BTR-CLT: No, but hour delay and people had connections to make (myself included), so no harm no foul. Decent service in the air.
