They have GOT to refurb those 757 seats post haste. It's one of the biggest black marks on AA. If they'd get those seats replaced with something remotely comfortable for a flight of 3-6 hours, AA's F seating would be in pretty good shape fleet-wide.

I'd have to agree with you--those 757 seats are hard to get comfortable in. I've been over 3 times in the last year, including a flight from LAX, and have had excellent service on all of my flights. The Admiral's Club at HNL (PHOTOS) is one of the best in the system. Always enjoy chatting with the agents there, though it's a hike over from the AA gates.

I did take photos of the breakfast entree on one flight which was Portuguese sausage quiche.

I doubt it was real champagne.

Probably true in the air, too. You don't even get champagne on the ground for TATL and Tokyo flights.

Thanks all for your responses. I forgot about the Trip Report section of the forum. Apologies!

Looking forward to it. From what I can gather, a pre-dept drink (some sort of sparkling wine), and a Sam Choy Hawaiian Breakfast Menu. Seats are better than Y, but aren't that great.

I am in row 5, so assuming FEBO is followed, I should be good to go.
