Well, American coach is aweful compared to United's Economy product. I flew them to a wedding a while back and all I can say is I *definitely* appreciate United so much more.
STL - LAS ... only given a GLASS of diet pepsi, no cookies/peanuts/pretzels. The seats felt like a piece of metal with a cloth over them.
At least on United, we get AUDIO on every flight, Economy Plus, free movies, and the full can of soda...
American, no thanks. They offered me Platinum flat out and I said no. I may reconsider in the event I have to take AA again, but I see no reason to.. United suits me just fine... I can complain about many other things than this airline...
the glory days are gone folks... ya need to wake up!
