PHL-DUB - I am guessing it is under 6 in the air. Dinner after takeoff. Any breakfast service? Anyone fly it recently? How was the crew?
(I was surprised with a great AA crew DOH-PHL a few months ago.)

DUB connection...
I have 5 hours between flights. How is the connection security? (I assume I will get my QR bp in MIA before flying to PHL.)
Which lounge for the QR flight out of T1? The Liffey Lounge vs The Martello Lounge? Lounge review?
There will be an "Express" option for the dinner. The last time I took that flight the crew did the express meal for everyone. I suggest eating beforehand in the PHL Flagship lounge. The breakfast is not worth waking up for. Best to just have a coffee or tea before landing and then get something a bit later in the lounge or airport.

Most AA international crews these days do the basic job competently but no more. Expect no proactive service between the dinner and breakfast service. Great crews are not unknown but it's been a long time since I have had one on AA.

QR uses the Martello lounge. No personal experience, unfortunately.
