AA investing in its onboard product? Say Whaaaa?! That's so 20th century...they obviously didn't get the cut, cut, cut memo

I believe only DFW-LIT will get the PJs to start. You can also pick up a pair for free at the LIT Flagship Lounge.

The wine was pretty good - but not that good!

Maybe the problem of profitability with QF international is that pajamas are available in both business and first class.

With luck Mrs QF will be able to compare the QF offering with the AA product in late Nov. as a result of her ex NRT flight. By then we will know if the AA distribution has been set up in a manner to have a consistent product with routes shared with BA or whether is a new system-wide feature.

We wander through interesting times.

Hope this will work out on my ORD-DEL flight tomorrow. I packed my CX Pjs just in case. Getting the PJS and hanging up clothes on boarding always makes the flight a lot more comfortable. Mattress pad and turn down service also help. Fingers crossed this will roll our systemwide.

Nice touch by AA, always the small details that go a long way. Now only if the level of service could be more consistent on Flagship flights.

Getting off HKG-LAX on CX and it's not even a fair comparison to AA.

Will they offer PJs on all flights ex-SFO, so I can I can impress the ladies in bars when I land in NY?

I've always been given them in BA F whatever the time of day though I have had to ask a couple of times.

If you're outbound from LHR, particularly to the US, they will stock the PJs, but primarily for the overnight return to LHR. That's why they try to avoid using them on the outbound daytime flights.

It is prorated based upon the length of the flight. DFW-AUS qualifies for one sleeve.

While they do not hand them out on the US-bound flights, I've never experienced any reticence at all when I've requested them.
