A wonderful example of the American (horror) dream. It's tough here (hey, we holocausted all the Indians) , be lucky you did not get killed yet , 23% interest on Credit Cards, violent cops, lousy airlines, terrible food, just LOW class all the way.
I travelled on AA (they are now a Swissair partner), oh boy !, what a cheap racket. On my last transatlantic to Paris, the purser was an old PanAm guy, and he recognised me and excused AA the whole flight, for their terrible performance. Catering doesn't label the carts, the food sucks, the linen is cheap, the caviar pasteurized and the bread to die of. He tired good service, but what AA gives him, it's a shame.
Praise them all you want, TWA had style, something that AA couldn't buy if they wanted to. OK, bad management killed TWA, but maybe their VIP-Lifetimers make a classy crowd in the F-class cabins of AA.
