I wonder if you'd get FFD access on these flights....It does show as "Flagship First" on AA.com but books into I class
Would love to hear any updates on if this is FFD eligible. My award for “first” on AA 55 booked into U class.

PHL - LAX has been recently rotating 787 vs. 332 - is it going to permanently go 787?

Also, do we know when the 757 international config will be on the PHL - SAN route? I'm flying SAN - PHL in a few weeks on the 757 and it looks to be the domestic config.

I was upgraded to Business on a 3 class 321 JFK-LAX and I had FF access.

Seems like an error. FFD should only be open to F passengers on the 321T services,

FF? That’s unclear terminology to me.

You should have been given access to Flagship Lounge, you should not have access to Flagship First Dining.

Maybe LAX and/or JFK FFD is now beta testing access availability for those not in F. There was no mention that the poster actually paid ($150 pp) to have access to FFD.

Lot's of premium economy availability - too bad they don't upgrade Gold/Platinum, because if economy gets full - standby's get the premium economy seats! Happened on OGG to DFW, and KOA to DFW.

DFW-ANC RT is back to a 788 this Summer, was recently scheduled as a 321, maybe that was a place holder and the 788 was always coming back like last season, or maybe AA anticipating more slack in the fleet. Hopefully it gets upped again to a 789 or 777.

LAX/LAS-DFW/MIA will have more WB options soon?

PHL-ORD has B787 (has been previously noted I believe).
I'm on a 788 PHL-ORD this Friday, so not just in April. AA490.

Sorry, by FF I meant Flagship lounge, not Flagship First dining.

Got to be careful with the acronyms!

I recently booked a PHX-PHL red-eye with an A333 and was upgraded to the lie-flat seat.

Please forgive my gut feeling that the answer is somewhere on the forum. My search led me to these posts. Does anyone have an update schedule of AA widebody deployment effective May 2020?
Where are they operating domestically is my main interest at the moment please?
thank you.

Very little domestically right now. I haven't seen anything for beyond May, probably because so much of the schedule is in flux.
