F in 73J?

Hi. I'm looking to book a flight in F or J from NYC to LAX using AA points and this AS flight showed up (see screenshot below). What is 73J and why does it say "Meal: Snack" on a transcon flight? A quick Google search didn't turn anything up. Does AS not serve a meal on transcon flights? And what type of seats are available on the 73J? Is it even worth it?

A quick Google search tells me that it's a 737-900.

Your flight leaves after 8pm so no meal (at least according to the website)

The "snack" served is usually a sandwich or salad with chicken etc. I actually enjoy the light meal service on an overnight flight.

That's not always the case. Last night I had a flight with "snack" meal service and it was the snack basket.

A Tcon with only the snack basket? Should be a little sandwich, soup, or protein plate

I didn't say it was a transcontinental flight, just that it was a flight marked as Snack
