Well... I have to admit, if we're in the business of grossly ignorant blanket statements... what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Anyhow, I do love WN's first class arrivals lounge. ^

You mean to tell me that you don't feel honored that AA will take your money and may or may not get you to your destination along with your luggage somewhere close to the time that you wanted to arrive? You don't appreciate the poor service and hateful attitudes? You don't feel safe in 15 to 20 year old aircraft that has proven it's air worthiness by flying 100's of thousands of hours? You don't enjoy spending your money with a company with such poor labor relations that the relationship between management and labor is just short of armed conflict?

For shame, for shame, for shame! You just don't enjoy the finer things in life do you?

bjtaylor: how about it rephrased like this:

"Because unlike DL, NW, CO, AS and WN (which pretty much gives FFers more drinks than they can stomach) AA is no longer a first class airline that takes care of its customers and employees."

So, as I sit here in the LHR Terraces lounge, with unencumbered access to complimentary adult beverages I might add, I thought I'd check in on this thread.

So, I'm beginning to wonder since noone chimed in, that the agent may have been technically correct.

Have my prior experiences of going back and asking for another 2 after the first 2 were used an exception?

What posts do you keep responding to? Are you a Quantas Club member? If not you should not expect chits except when flying Int'l, and no one else appears to be reporting that they are receiving them at any other time.

I sent an email to Admirals' Club Customer Service and received this reply:

An update to this previous poster...just entered the MIA Admirals Club in Concourse D, using my Qantas Club card, and was told no drink chits unless plat/explat traveling on an intl itin. I mentioned that other clubs I've been to offer the chits, including LAX, ORD, and DFW, and she said they were wrong! Crazy. My onward itin is MIA-MCO. Didn't feel like holding up my laptop with the previous poster's e-mail received from Admirals Club CS but shot off my own quesstion to the club.

Fortunately my "adult beverage" consumption was adequate on my LAX-MIA flight this morning so it's no big deal to go without for a couple hours. But it's the principle!
